Xbox 360
Platform »
The Xbox 360 is the second game console produced by Microsoft Corporation and is the successor to the original Xbox.
First xbox 360 game you ever played or saw
" The first 360 game I played was King Kong at a demo station before it was released. "Same here.
The first one I ever played was Oblivion, I can't remember what the first one I ever saw was. But to be honest, deep down one of my big motivations for buying a 360 was that I knew that whenever it was released, whatever form it took, Halo 3 (which hadn't even been remotely announced at the time) was going to be on that platform.
Perfect Dark Zero. I remember it was one of the first launch titles and I got the X360 pretty soon after release, and my first thought was WHOA THE GRAPHICS. And my second thought was whoa this game is BAD. And my third thought was, I'm going back to Halo 2.
Do screenshots count? Dark Sector would be the first then, since it had the first next-game gen screenshots to ever be shown. Ended up being a better game than it's given credit for too. Then again, I got it new for $3, so I'm probably just still really thrilled about that.
Halo 3 was the first 360 game I ever played.
I owned a horror movie store at the time and one of my customers was telling me about this crazy zombie game like Dawn of the Dead that was coming out for the new 360. Once Dead Rising came out he bought it and hooked up his xbox in the store and we played it all day. I remember customers coming in and laughing like hell at us shooting golf balls at the zombies. Good times!
When my cousin brought his 360 round my house with Rockstar's Table Tennis. Was wowed with the graphics on my HD tele!
Woulda been either Kameo or Condemned for me, both of which I bought with my 360. I'm gonna assume I played Condemned first.
I also believe that my first exposure to the 360 was King Kong at a demo station.
The first game I actually owned was Halo 3 though.
Gears of War 1 back in 2007. Played it a a friend's house, split screen co-op, and it was pretty amazing. Can't recall if it was in HD or not, but I was impressed of how great it looked compared to the PS2.
Gears of War. Played for 5 minutes at a local store, the game was on display there, and i was impressed. Bought my 360 the same day.
First game I saw was Kameo. The game that got me to actually buy the 360 was Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (thanks Bob Colayco). First game I played was Hexic HD.
Then... Geometry Wars took up most of my time on the system and my friends who wanted to play Halo 2 did not understand.
Edit: oops typo.
Geometry Wars. Even before I'd played it, that was the most attractive game on the system. Back then dual-stick shooters weren't common as dirt (and if you don't own a current console they still aren't) and I love them. So I was waited until there were enough other games I wanted that I could justify buying a console for a $5 game.
Played: Oblivion
I still remember playing Oblivion for the first time like it was yesterday. I had it running on an HDTV at 720p and I was drooling the whole time. It was my very first achievement experience as well. I unlocked "Escaped the Imperial Sewers" on 4/6/2006 (which is when I bought my 360).
Call of Duty 2 was the first game I recall playing on the Xbox 360. I remember playing the demo in local game stores and being blown away by the graphics!
GTA 4 was the first 360 game I owned...don't remember what I played first at my friend's house who had a 360...
