I just bought an RGH3 hacked 360 off etsy today after the Xbox live closure. Actually pretty siked to go back and play some of the 360 games I missed back then that have been stuck on that console generation.

If only that sale counted .

Next go with a PS3 and hack the fuck out of it. 1tb max hdd, free games market. My kids love it.

The last Xbox I had was the 360 so take this with a grain of salt, but they made the choice between XBone and PS5 so simple for me by making all XBox titles playable on PC. As someone who would entertain buying both consoles, I never found a compelling argument to bother.

How do you play Xbox titles on PC? I thought some didn't work?

[–] MagicCuboid 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

As far as I can tell, every game that's listed as XBox exclusive on Google is available on PC Game Pass. I played Forza, Halo Infinite, Flight Sim, Sea of Thieves, Starfield, Ori, etc.

Oh I see. Can you play with Xbox players?

[–] MagicCuboid 1 points 4 months ago

That's a good question! I know there is some cross play, but I think there are many titles that don't have it. If you play multiplayer with friends who also have Xboxes, that's probably a good argument to get one.

Every xbox360 console I have owned or known others to own was defective within a short timespan. I would never trust their hardware ever again.

Because I read it on said link aggregator. And I like the concise no-bullshit format of slashdot. I'm sorry it offends you.
