The 360 generation, particularly the early years of it, were such of a fun time. I had a closely-knit group that I played with almost every day. Over time, some of us moved on to playing mostly on other platforms, and others got busy with life and mostly stopped gaming altogether and lost touch. I do kinda miss those days.

@smokagaming it's nostalgic for me as well But I'm even more fond of the generation before when I bought the game and got the entire product with no catches. I didn't have to be online to play the damn thing The game had to run well and be super polished because there were no patches Skins used to be an unlock you earned, not over $20 each for anything worthwhile. The games also couldn't release with barely any content with the promise of free updates later as long as the game makes money first. I really like the social aspect of online gaming early on but online gaming's final form is battle passes, 20 dollar skins and barebones launches. I look at the PS3/360 as the beginning of the end. DLC ruined this industry lmao.

​@@fullmetalbleachnotewhat's wrong with battle passes? For paid games then yeah, it's wrong. But for free to play games who cares, you don't have to buy the skins, they're optional. Thanks to dlc we have the episodes of half life 2, red dead zombies or the expansions of GTA 4.

Kinda feel the same, feels like those days are still fresh, but actually was almost 18 years since the Xbox 360 release. The same goes to the Playstation 2 years.

The Gears of War commercial is legendary. It really hit hard when they used the Mad World instrumental during that one moment in the Gears of War 3 campaign. Brothers to the end.

The 360 had some of the best games that allowed us to have timeless memories with friends and family. Id love to go back and experience it all again.

This video held more nostalgia for me than I realized. I spent countless hours playing Halo 3 online with my few friends and with strangers alike. I was too invested to fully fall asleep, but afterwards my mind was at ease for the first time in a long while.

Even after that it's just a bunch of games that happen to be on Xbox 360, along with PS3 and PC. At least Gears of War was an Xbox 360 game. Though it did come to PC a year later. Same with Mass effect, though that also came to PS3 later too. So.. yeah, this should have really had Xbox 360 exclusives.

I love how this channel has just become a relaxing video game sleeping channel. Thanks for the facts and the sleep!

The music and the consistent voice lines make this the best way to rest. Great background video but also really interesting facts!

Halo 3 is one of those games that gives me nostalgia like no other; its general aesthetic takes me right back to where I was when I first played it. I love learning about the 360, I think it’s Xbox’s greatest system for sure.

Just how massive the map is and how detailed the grains of sand was. It's still an Amazing game on Series X

An era come and gone, so many lightning in a bottle games. Bioshock, Halo, Gears of War, Dragons Dogma, Crackdown and some solid sequels too.

I really like the Thumbnail for this video. Having chief chill out and have his face obscured by the helmet, with that in if itself harkening to Halo: Reach. Props to the artists involved!

The 360 was the most important system to me that I never owned. It was so ubiquitous that everyone I knew at the time, when I was in college, had a 360. Between playing Rock Band at friends house or sneaking in Meat Boy and Oblivion time on my roomate's system, it's crazy to think back on how much nostalgia I have for a console that I never purchased. I bought a Series S recently and have been slowly purchasing some of the games from that generation that I was always interested in like Lost Odyssey and the Arkham games.

The 360 was one of my favorite consoles. Brought all my friends together before and all throughout college. Such a great console generation.

Even though my family had an Xbox and a Wii before we got a 360 from my uncle, I still consider it my first console. Too many good memories for me to let it go just yet.

When I remember those long days of playing Halo and Gears of War on the 360 while talking with people in the party and having fun while not caring if we won or lost... Those were the days.

I used to play forge mode in the halo games a lot with my family, it was so fun! I'll always have nostalgia for that part of halo, even if i didn't really play much of the main cmapaigns lol

this was the perfect video to fall asleep after a hard week

What a great video, thanks for the nostalgia.

Xbox will forever be my favorite console. I still have memories of getting an Xbox 360 for Christmas, then my older brother taking me out to Walmart later that day to get us Halo 3. Good times.

The campy violence from the original Gears brings back memories of just watching my cousin play online for hours, it felt like he never died and always managed the chainsaw kill.

Thanks mate this was just what I needed

The original Xbox was the first video game console I earned with a job. Prior to that my family received a 2600, an NES, and an SNES as gifts during Christmas. The 360 was my primary console just prior to and after I got married. It was there to provide escape while I was working an awful bank call center job. Halo, Skyrim, Miner Dig Deep, and many other titles really saved my sanity. I miss the 360 days. So much happened with that console back then.

Thank you so much the videos really help me sleep at night keep up the amazing work guys/girls 😊😊

Nothing in my life will top the 360 era! I love seeing these facts.

Your voice is so soothing, thank you for helping me sleep!

I remember the first time I ever saw an Xbox was a mind blowing experience. To that point I had only understood gaming as pixels or flash games, and the wonder that was modern gaming has kept me embroiled ever since.

I think one of my favorite factoids about the kinect was Konami's Dance Evolution actually used a kinect on the arcade cabinet. While the game has long since reached its end, a spiritual successor called Dance Around soon debuted in arcades, using new cameras that actually tracked players' movements worse than the kinect on Dance Evolution cabinets

I had a lot of fun in the 360 era! Lot's of great time hanging out with friends.

Forza M 4 was my childhood, while not a trivia king still had a lot of fun learning about the other games my friends played

Eater eggs like the hidden message on the halo ring are things I would never know without this channel. More super secret Halo EE please

Definitely one of my favourite console generations, always makes me feel nostalgic. Any chance we might see a video on the Fable series at some point now we have some more on the reboot this year?

While I played the original Xbox a lot when I was young, the 360 is when I really got into the hobby in a serious way. This video is super interesting to me as it sheds so much light on games that I may have played at the time but didn’t dive deep into at the time.

I remember getting the Xbox 360 Vision camera and being so excited about all the games that were going to utilize it lol. The only game I recall actually doing that was UNO.

Was literally looking for a vid to sleep to, perfect

The 360 was my favourite jRPG console of that generation. At least during the first few years, with games like Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, The Elder Scrolls Oblivion.

Pretty cool to see Halo 3 on here since it was my first Xbox 360 game I ever played!

I had no idea this channel existed but this is amazing.

Wasn’t much of an xbox fan but watching this has made me regret missing out on some awesome games. May need to go back and play some halo.

The Xbox 360 was my only console for a long time and I always played Sonic on it. it's nice to see someone remembers this old console.

23:36 Jeremy Soule’s work for Skyrim was phenomenal. I have many issues with Skyrim but there hasn’t been many RPGs to have soundtracks as iconic and beautifully composed as Skyrim. I will never NOT sit through the first few minutes of the main menu to listen to that theme.

I will never get over that portal to a French street in Bioshock Infinite. I knew I was in love at that moment.

The 360 era was when I formed the best of my childhood gaming memories. When the One came out, I went to PC and it hasn't made sense to go back to consoles since then. Occasionally, I kinda miss those times.

I love the xbox 360 this video brings back alot of nostalgia for me ☺️ good times.

Hunting gamerscore was real enjoyable in lot of the games. Then some games had non 5/0 ending of points and causing you to being stuck at number ending 4 or 9 as example. Luckily getting the counterpart achievement way later (like a year) in multiplayer game making it back to 0/5 ending number

I remember printing off a cool pic of Master Chief and taking a picture of him so I could have a super unique icon. (Sorry if the vid covered this, I did indeed fall asleep haha)
