You didn't want to test more demanding games? I'm not sure what the most graphically impressive Xbox 360 title is, but I have some examples, also have examples for other systems too. I'll link them below to save you the trouble : )
This has been achievable for a very long time. I`ve been working on making the vulkan part work so you don't get any transparency issues in games like Gears of war 1 2 3.
There’s a fix for this in the patch notes. You turn off aspect ratio? ambient occlusion? one of those but that’s what causes the characters to look transparent. I can find a link for you to watch if you need it.
Plus Halo MCC / Halo Wars is playable offline on Steam so that really checks my 360 game boxes And Lost Planet 2 since I got it before it was delisted This will be great for all those games that didn't get a PC port on the go.
Honestly if you're ever looking to play Banjo Kazooie and Tooie the XBLA versions are a fantastic way to play them on the Steam Deck, full Xbox Style control layout with the ability to apply patches like 60fps and bunch of other fixes that just outright improve the gameplay
This is really cool to see! I never really got into Xbox 360 since I was always more of a PC gamer and was pretty restricted with what I was allowed to play but very cool to see! It is not a surprise to me at all the the Deck can play these games. Linux FTW!
Sonic Unleashed should also be a go-to test title, as it pushes the 360 a lot! ^^ As of today, it never received a PC port. =/ On the Xbox Series consoles it got FPS Boost, but having it portably and running well, would be huge! =D
turns out it works perfectly now. i used a duelboot to play this before but now i really don’t need that anymore for xbox 360 emulation. (not my video) th-cam.com/video/Ejt6ttcIefc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=D78KBYoBmD6GQQRn
@xerothehero1704 Full game start to finish with no texture glitches, yes. There are some *very minor bugs,* but they are avoidable. Make sure to bind a button to F5 to fix texture glitches if they do pop up on rare occasion. I was also able to play through all of Sonic '06 on the system with little issue.
It’s just a steam deck. You’re going to miss out on many searches and clicks by trying to differentiate them in the title. There’s almost no software differences in the OLED compared to the LED.
The reason it's working is because of steam os 3.5 , besides the screen and what not there's no difference in the hardware so the og steam deck should work as long as it's 3.5
If you like Hydro Thunder Hurricane then you'll also like H2Overdrive. I'm currently running it on my Steam Deck with the Jconfig launcher but the only way I got it to work is by booting into Windows 10 from an SD card.
About a Year ago i installed a 1 TB SSD in my Deck. I made 2 Partitions. 800 GB for SteamOS, 200 GB for Windows. With Windows on the Deck Xenia was no big Deal.
i have been thinking of putting windows on mine so I can install gamepass games. This is another good incentive to go ahead and do it. Do you think 200gb was enough? I have 1 tb as well. What do you like to play?
I was playing the Steam port of Switch Ball just the other day, haha. A good 360 game that runs well on the steam deck is Guardian Heroes, worth trying out. One game I wish could run is Dishwasher Dead Samurai, but it's broken at the moment.
Ok i dont get why people are talking about the OLed deck like is a different system, thats like talking about ' game possible to play on nintendo switch OLed" its all just running on switch it does not matter which version you have GD

I'm still ultimately waiting for PS3 emulation to get good on Steam Deck. There's a lot more exclusives I'm interested in that have been stuck on that hardware for years.
*:OOO* 😱-I Highly Recommend you try *GEOMETRY WARS 2 on OLED* (Arcade Twin-Stick shooter with gorgeous visuals and addictive gameplay. My only 360 Dream Deck title) I don’t know the current state of Xenia on Deck, but I never got the game going correctly on Deck. I had to change the GPU to "3d312" cause Vulkan had broken dark visuals. It’s not all the way there yet, it’s not great but boy it was surreal to finally see it off the 360, onto handheld where it’d be perfect.
Updated everything on my Deck LCD and sadly it still doesn't work, the Perfect Dark XBLA rendering with Vulkan still shows the z-depth messed up with logos and models rendered out of order. What version of Xenia and Proton are you using?
Theres another Xbox 360 game that seem to get praised, may not be highly as Halo series but Gears Of War, 1, 2 and 3. Im sure you have heard of them, hope epic games or coalition remakes the Gears Of War games one day and put them on Valve/Steam as well as Xbox Series Systems.
You can actually get a licensed 360 controller replica w/ modern guts from Hyperkin. I've got one myself after learning about it when they launch and can say it's pretty nice. The only stickler is that it's wired only, usb-c, and there's a white indicator LED instead of the LEDs around the Xbox logo.
I love emudeck, but as far as 360 is concerned, I think I'll wait for it to get more fleshed out. I love the 360 game lineup and don't mind pulling out my console to play some Deus Ex Revolution, 007 Bloodstone, or Alice and Wonderland the Madness returns. Some of these games you just can't play anywhere else! I'll check into your water racing game. 👍👍
Alice in wonderland madness returns and deus ex revolution are natively available on pc mate, the other I've never heard of so no idea. I've played the pc version of madness returns on steam deck
@@popatsot1 unironically true there’s so much you can just play without having to leave your bed this includes wii games that require wii remote you can just use the track pad🥵
How many indie games are possible in emulation? Like Dead block, undead empire, zombie apocalypse, or destroy all zombies. Those games aren't obtainable anymore for what I remember.
None of this is working for me, steam rom manager couldnt find any images to put on xenia or my games, and i got a "Assertion Failed" error message when i launch a game, the credits of game roll, than crash
So do ISO's work on SD with Xenia? I haven't had much luck. Always asks for Wine. What format is XBLA? Maybe those run easier? I can search for some of them.
@@JDabz96 I fixed it! Go to your Xenia config, which is at /home/deck/Emulation/roms/xbox360/ as xenia-canary.config.toml go to line 209, and change "vulkan" to "d3d12"
How to access the top bar navigation once Xenia is launched to access 'Open' and all those options? Tried with touchscreen and trackpad with mouse, even bind Fullscreen (F11) and I cannot make it appear.
Hey man, I didbeverytbing the same as you, im running it on my steam deck but the slowdown is so bad im getting 1-2 frames on Hydro Thunder Hurricane, how did you get it so smooth?.
Thanks for the video. Do you know if the emulator is being further developed for more games, better performance, and proton compatibility? Thank you! Oh, I liked yhe hell put of yhat smash button!
Any tips for getting Hydro Thunder Hurricane running on the deck? I can get it loaded and running but there are some frame rate drops (into the 20s) which make the game unplayable. I did a few Power Tools updates (reducing the SMT threads, etc) and selected the Proton Experimental layer in game properties. Any other suggestions? Thank in advance...
Switchball has a "HD" steam port now thankfully so you don't need to emulate it. Kudos for showing it though, it was one of my favorite games back in the day for XBLA.
Does the current version of Xenia work? I followed a guide the other day that said I couldn't install from emudeck and had to install a specific build of it
Ive done all this but the games wont launch. They try to load and it just puts me straight back to the steam library. There are no error messages or anything like that. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks
I've only tried and played one game (Hydro Thunder and that has frame drops) but once I added a Proton layer in the compatibility (properties) of the game at least it did launch. Proton 7 reacted how you describe but Proton Experimental did launch the game for me. hope that helps...
Todd’s is great. I still have all my old 360 games so I might try this. I wouldn’t need too if they released a gears of war collection like they did with Halo already.
I used to go to different arcades to go play that game I managed to in the progress of 3 years cuz I would only go once a year upgrade all the way to the best car using only my birthdays that was the best game I ever played
