    this generation was when gaming peaked. online console gaming finally found its footing, developers and publishers still cared about making great games, graphics were getting to a very impressive point, and so many incredible games were being released. with how many greedy corporate heads are coming into the gaming industry because of the "incredible monetization opportunities" we will never see another great generation of gaming again.

      Yes. Make something cool and unique! But instead they make money by doing nothing new. Same thing, different year. I want games that explore new ideas and focus on being fun, not just micro transactions and loot boxes. Bring the soul back to gaming! Which is why I mostly play indie anymore.

      Agree. Couple of months ago I started collecting indie titles made by smaller companies like Blue Fire, Death's Door, Turnip Boy, Elliot Quest, Kena and a couple others. Been having a blast playing those titles compared to more popular AAA games. I noticed the indie scene has been gaining traction about the last 5 to 6 years, definitely something to support imo. Hurt those corporations right where it hurts, in their wallets. Speak with your money. 😎

    Xbox 360 had a lot of exclusives/timed exclusives back then. Dead Rising, Lost Planet, Ace Combat 6, Beautiful Katamari, Magna Carta 2, Eternal Sonata, Tales of Vesperia, Star Ocean 4, Infinite Undiscovery, Mass Effect, Chrome Hounds, Ninja Blade, Ninja Gaiden 2.
    We’ve highlighted how good the PS3 is, I took this video to pump up how aggressive Xbox went on exclusives back then. The last great generation when practically every console was really strong.
    But for me, it was Xbox 360 as I missed most out on most of the PS3 games. I’m now playing catch up and it is imo equally impressive.

    I spent literally hours playing Collin McCreary's DIRT 2 on PS3. It's one of the most fun racing games I have ever played next to the old NFS games on PS2. And for a game that came out in 2009, it still looks incredible. PS3 & XBOX 360 was a perfect balance between graphics and gameplay. PS3 is the best console for single player experiences. While XBOX 360 was best for it's online experience due to popularity of games like Halo & COD for example. Both consoles have their strengths and weaknesses. But both consoles are awesome in their own unique way.

    I remember coming very late to the party with PS3. Around 2012-ish. The first physical disk I bought was from a seller on a classifieds website...it was COD Black Ops 2. Stuck that baby in the PS3, got a headset hooked up, and to this day I have no idea where 6 months of my life went. Servers were full. Player leveling was awesome. Lootboxes were not a real thing...yet. Just pure unadulterated fun...even for a 36-year-old like me at the time.

The 360 might be a glitch mess today because Microsoft basically killed most servers already but a modded 360 blazes through the download speeds of the PS3.

    The 360/PS3 generation was a fantastic followup to the Xbox OG and PS2 because Playstation actually had to complete with Xbox AND Nintendo to get positive feedback from the gaming media.
    Today Playstation has cancelled games, closed studios, releases hardware that was never in demand and releases ont note games! They still get overwhelming praise for doing horribly. Xbox has actually introduced services and has made phenomenal strides to get more people interested in console gaming.
    Back in 2005, this would not stand!

    My OG PS3 got the YLOD back in 2009, but the PS3 Slim I bought to replace it is holding up fine to this day. I didn't get the X360 until around 2013 (when the urge to play Alan Wake became too strong to ignore) and it's also working fine today. I still have plenty of games for these machines in my backlog, but if a 360 game is compatible with Xbone, I'll usually play it there instead. Just played Far Cry 2 that way and it worked great. Love that game, by the way. Most people don't. It almost felt as fresh and fun as it did back in 2008 when I played it on PS3. Currently playing Enemy Front on the 360. Not a great game. Probably won't finish it. 😄

    Agreed. The ultimate era. The XBOX 360 was amazing but my favoured console was the PS3 Phat. Although I still have and use my original 360, sadly, my PS3 died; ironic given the 360's reputation. Back in these good old days, the designers did most of the play testing rather than leaving that to the paying public but best of all, the thing that tugs on my nostalgia gene is the instruction manuals. Oh how I miss them.

    The rarest PS3 games I see in stores are never over £50. Most games are around £4 each at the moment. I'm taking advantage of this and playing everything I never got to play back in the day.

    I have both systems and I have to say I love them both even more than the newer systems I play them more thann the new systems to be honest I have so many games I've been collecting for them. I love this generation and wish it was still King. still is the best generation in my eyes. But I first got the Xbox of course. And I only dreamed about getting the PlayStation 3. See when we bought the Xbox we were like okay this is awesome but when that PlayStation drops everything's going to look so much better run so much better because it's more expensive and came out a year later right. Everyone thought that was the premium console. But the funny thing is after it came out and game started coming out for it. Games actually ran and looked way better on the Xbox. And it took away a lot of that feeling after some time knowing that the PlayStation 3 really wasn't that much more powerful than the Xbox 360 and actually the Xbox 360 version of the games ran looked way better. Towards the end PlayStation developers really started taking advantage of the cell processor and started making some amazing games. Comparable on the same level as the Xbox 360.I wouldn't say it surpassed it so honestly the best console for me is the Xbox 360. And I wanted the PlayStation 3 to be the better console I thought it was when I bought it at the time it felt like I upgraded but in all honesty I didn't. But you don't want to tell yourself that at the time but looking back at hindsight the Xbox is definitely better game wise anyways. Just the way the graphics looked and the color to it if you put the same game in side-by-side on each console with the same TV you'll notice the Xbox 360 version looks so much better so much more colorful the PlayStation 3 just has this really dull look to it like almost like black and white it really tones down the colors. Kind of like looking at a LCD and OLED panel big difference.

    I miss this gen of games. I originally had a PS2. Then my parents got us a 360. It was awesome! I loved playing it and all the games! It was always a blast! I kinda remember the whole PS3 vs 360 thing and it still is stupid lol. I need to get back onto my 360. I never had a bad time with that console. Newer consoles have mostly lost me. I don't like the Xbox One or PS4/5. It feels so lifeless and corporate. They really figured out how to suck the soul of the system to make more money. And it's a shame.

  • @sunnywagle8995
    @sunnywagle8995 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The best part about that generation is, there were great exclusive games across all the platform. It was one of those generation that was so evenly matched in terms of exclusive games. Ever since Microsoft shifted it's focus to Kinect, they completely lost the track of what originally worked for them. Console wars are bullsh*t, but you need to provide a solid incentive for me to choose your system over the other. Xbox lacks exclusivity not only in terms of quality but interms of feature availability. A PC owner has no reason to buy Xbox these days, which was not the case in that 360/PS3 generation.

    PS3 is truly the greatest for all the tech it introduced. 3D gaming on the PS3 is probably the most underrated best technology ever created in gaming. I get why it failed l, however I play on a 175” 3D projector and all the 3D PS3 games are so immersive that even games today just can’t compete with it. Uncharted 3 in 3D…. 🤤….

Had a PSP and when i found out my friends ps3 could remote play off it was like fin awesome tech at the time. ❤ (besides..i could play a full edition of Midnight Club Dub Edition Remix and GTA)you could and i did get an awesome experience out of the 360 but i would have went back in time and listened to all those who said the graphics were positively better on the ps3 and the exclusives are way more appealing to me now. Im a 80s babie btw. js. I had ps1 in high school, a ps5 now ..skipping the ps5 pro and definitely going for ps6..as long as they keep vr and help make awesome exclusives..im cool.

      Yes, for free as well, just as long as either the official servers for your game of choice are up or there's an unofficial one you must adjust MTU to join. In both cases, you also need other players joined online of course. Battlefield, Call of Duty & Fat Princess are a few examples of games I've tried you can just join and find people on.
