Why did you put American Nightmare on your list but not the original Alan Wake?

Oops, good catch. For some reason I thought it came out in 2009.

The 360 certainly went on a decline as far as quantity of games went but they still had some good to great stuff from 2010 to 2012. Granted, you had your duds/lukewarm titles like Fable III, Crackdown 2, Deadlight, Ascend: Hand of Kul, Halo: Spartan Assault, and a few others but the quality was still relatively high on the main retail releases.

2010: Halo Reach, Alan Wake, Deathsmiles, Splinter Cell Conviction, Snoopy Flying Ace, ilomilo, Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, Dead Rising 2: Case West

2011: Gears of War 3, Halo Anniversary, Forza 4, Iron Brigade, Ms. Splosion Man, The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile, Toy Soldiers Cold War, Crimson Alliance, Bangai-O HD Missile Fury

2012: Forza Horizon, Alan Wake America Nightmare, Halo 4, The Splatters, Mark of the Ninja, Witcher 2, Trials Evolution, Happy Wars

2013: Battleblock Theater, Akai Katana, Gears of War Judgment, State of Decay, Charlie Murder, Motocross Madness

2014: Fable Anniversary, Titanfall (Xbox One/360), World of Tanks 360 Edition, Warface, Max: The Curse of Brotherhood (Xbox One/360), Super Time Force (Xbox One/360)

2013 and 2014 are definitely slim pickings with a mix of retail, XBL, and F2P games. Certain titles that were supposed to be on the 360 originally either went to the One (Ryse) or both (Halo Spartan Assault, Super Time Force, Titanfall, Max: The Curse of Brotherhood). Agreed about the Kinect stuff though, outside of a few games here and there I found it to be a complete waste of time and resources which just clogged up the shelves with shovel ware.

Twice on one page. There is also a ton of non-exclusives in that list.

edit: What's inexplicable is how they ditched the 360 early and still have nothing internally developed on the SetTopBox One.

They did the same in the transition from the original XBOX to 360. At least previous gen accessories and consoles are still on the shelves this time.

What can I say? SpopPadding is a great product.

Anyway, doesn't matter if not all of them are exclusives.

[Yoshi]

I'll buy that, as long as they're the best versions.

edit: And that will be the huge problem for the One for the next six years, that and the too small and not upgradable HDD.

What 12 games did you keep?

- Alan Wake
- Halo 4
- Red Dead Redemption
- Left 4 Dead
- Batman: Arkham Asylum
- Skyrim: Legendary Edition
- LEGO Lord of the Rings
- Rock Band 3
- Gears of War 3
- Project Gotham Racing 4
- Otomedius Excellent
- Mass Effect 3

The multi-platform ones I have because I already beat them on PS3 but liked them enough to play through them again for the cheevos. I got ME3 on the 360 because of my save file, but that's about it! Oh, and 1.6 gigs of Rock Band songs.

I plan to get some of the games I've wanted to play but waited on, now that 360 games are cheap, but I don't know when that will be, lol.

Bayonetta is way better on the 360.

[FirstBlood]

Was. They fixed that shit.

[Tain]

I heard from tons of places that it's still pretty damn gnarly post-patch.

Ultimately the Cave releases and some other exclusive or definitive version stuff like Dead Rising, Halo, Gears, Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden 2, Senkou no Ronde, Radiant Silvergun, Guardian Heroes, Virtual On games, Raiden games, Guilty Gear 2, Strania, EDF 2025, Culdcept Saga, and so on make me put the 360's effective library above the PS3's, but the PS3 still has some life in it (in Japan at least) and it wouldn't at all surprise me if it pulls ahead in the long run.

Microsofts rumored E3 lineup.

Forza Horizon 2
Halo 2: Anniversary
Halo 5
Battletoads
Perfect Dark.
Samaritan
EchoBlack
Crackdown 3
Ryse 2


Lots of obvious stuff and then Battletoads. Weird if that makes a comeback. Kinect Rivals hinted at it with some Battletoads themed outfits.
