It's been almost 18 years since the Xbox 360 released and today I wanted to go online with the console to see which games are still being played.

    I have to admit, my ps3 and Gran Turismo 5 was so cool the way online play was, if you wanted an expensive car, but were low on funds? All I had to do was send a message to one of my friends online, and they'd send me a 100000000$ car in my garage. nowadays and Gran Turismo 7 online? Bla!! I wish the ps5 was the ps3 in structure, features, and online!!

    2004-2010 XBL was peak online gaming. Multiplayer was such a social experience compared to now. Discord didn’t exist and there was no party chat. You wanted to talk with your friend? You’re gonna have everyone else in the lobby with ya. GAAS and player retention nonsense didn’t exist. Gears, halo, cod4/waw, and gta4 were some of the most memorable online experiences that no modern day title has come close to replicating.

    Yep. It was a game changer and this as someone born in 89, was on top of the jump we got going from Playstation and Sega Saturn(had an old atari 2600 before either), to the Playstation 2 and Original Xbox. Can still remember middle school and everyone talking about Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice city came out like a year or so after. Stuff didn't get announced five or six years ahead of time back then. In high school I had a friend who's Xbox had the mini screen attachment you could buy so he would set it up in the lunch room and we would play 4 player Halo 2 matches.

    Just a note for people having trouble logging into their 360 with their gamer account and getting password errors. Remember the 360 has a max length of 16 characters. You may have a longer password on your modern console. Secondly anyone using an authenticator app for your account… log into your account with a browser and in security settings create an additional password especially for the 360 and use that to log in.

    I began gaming with the Genesis / SNES era, but even I have to admin the PS3/360 era is where gaming peaked. Right before microtransactions and monetization got really bad. A period of time when online multiplayer was gaining it's stride and creativity in that space was still abundant. Most modern game ideas got their foothold in this generation. Most big ideas that are popular today in multiplayer were conceived in this era of gaming. When you go back to play these games, you realize just how little gaming has evolved in the last 12+ years.

Looks like a slightly MORE pixelated PS3 version.... On Series X, you can play it natively, plus it upscales it to 4k @ 30fps. It's my favorite racing game of all time.

    Another game from that era that I know that is active (or at least was a few months ago when I randomly got into again) is the Mass Effect 3 online multiplayer that is basically a co-op horde mode that was free to play, but included a fairly early loot box system to unlock extra characters and weapons. It's another one that I would guess is getting a boost from the backward compatibility of the Xbox Series consoles and the fact that both the new Legendary editions of the trilogy (without the multiplayer) and the original versions are available through Game Pass with the deal Microsoft has with EA.

I still play mine on the regular (games look great on my QLED), and I love the ability to use a usb external HD with it. We will never see PS2 and 360 type eras ever again. So many games by the 3rd year of release for each of those amazing console. Such variety. Polished and complete releases. No 70gb day1 patch necessary. No over online coverage of gaming or toxic qwerty keyboard fanboyism ruining hardware manufacturers objectivity. Developers can barely get AAA titles out on a regular rotation today, seem behind on the current technology. I miss the ps2 360 eras, you could just walk into a store and scoop up a couple games to get int ever couple weeks.
