I'm not sure if it qualifies as a hidden gem, but I had a blast playing South Park Let's Go Tower Defense on the X360 back in the day. Definitely one of my favorites from the Xbox Live Arcade .
I mean its a great console but lets not just go around making up lies here lol. The ps2 library stomps all over the 360 library in terms of size AND variety
Great video! I love the 360, and Blur was such an underrated game for it. Damnation was one I really wanted to like, but those aiming mechanics really hurt. Never heard anything good about the Star Trek game, but now I have to find it and play it! Singularity is another I would recommend that doesn't get brought up much. Really liked that game. Thanks again for all the great recommendations!
Early 360 was a really special era. Many of those games felt more like peak Ps2 and Xbox, rather than the type of games that eventually would come out for the 360 ps3 generation.
A game that's kinda similar to Rez on the XBOX 360 is Child of Eden (it's a rythim shooter as well as Rez) it's kinda weird,but the music totally kicks asses
@@SecondOpinionGames1 if you like Rez you're not gonna be dissapointed with this one on the gameplay aspect,the cinematics are weird,but all of those colors that are in the gameplay are totally yum,very flashy indeed😎
Never should have stopped booting up the 360. Xbox one and onwards was nothing but disappointing. Playing these old games again is a breath of fresh air.
Damnation from the time Codemasters used to do other genres. It's no surprise they then decided to concentrate on racing games. Mini Ninjas which to me always sounded like a savoury snack was made by the guys behind Hitman iirc.
Your gamelist is so true, excellent choice, so much of xbox 360 games are actually more fun than what we are still playing today in 2024 ,it was the golden age ,these games had a true soul, now games are so beautiful but without soul like before 😔😔 thanks for this video ,what a great pleasure 👍🏻👍🏻
The Star Trek game plays like Resident Evil 5. So I really didn't have any super negative things to say outside of the partner's ai. I still had fun with it.
Two games I want to like are SH Homecoming and Neverdead, but I don't like the clunky controls. When you have to swing a blade with the thumbstick it just feels unintuitive
Batman was over looked for the other Batman man games. And a bad game to one can easily be another’s favorite if they had the time to master the controls 😃
Did they mention Aces of the Galaxy yet? That's the game I bought for 5 dollars, returned it because I couldn't log in to my account, fixed the login problem, and discovered I can't ever rebuy it because the game was never withdrawn from my downloads list which would be piracy at this point to use, meaning I'm locked from legitimately using it now. But decenf game.
My last 360 was in 2010 and i just find out that the servers and store are still online but all will be shut down in the mid of the year after freaking 18 years!!!!
Xbox 360s are for playing Culdcept Saga. Anything else is just a bonus. Actually, I've never understood all the love Under Defeat gets. I've had it since its Dreamcast launch, and it's a very dull shooter that for some reason keeps getting re-releases like it's a masterpiece. It may well be my least-favorite DC shooter.
For the first 3 years of the console the 360 ran every game better. About half way through year 4 the ps3 started to get better. So maybe 15-20 games total run better on the ps3. Almost every game runs better on the 360.
@@SecondOpinionGames1 i cant play first person games, they give me motion sickness.there is a part where im fighting some giant looking bear thing and i cant kill him.
Yikes, there are some absolute Stinkers in this list. Damnation is 2/10 on its best, non buggy day. Star Trek is one of the worst AAA games ever made and also gets a 2/10, the worst Ace Combat game by a distance 5/10 and Facebreaker, a really poor fighting game 3/10. Methinks the author does not know what a hidden gem is as half of these are fossilised Dino Dung. Gun, BotS, Vanquish, Blur and pretty much any Telltale game from this period are worth playing but, seriously, Damnation and Star Trek are AWFUL.
@@SecondOpinionGames1 I did. Unless someone has patched the hell out of it it remains a janky, clunky, joyless slog of a game, well until the bugs get you which was the third mission if memory serves, the one where, if you're playing solo, spock has to be elsewhere but just blunders into the scenery or falls off platforms. It is an irredeemably bad game and got the critical panning it deserved. You cannot review in a bubble, and the only big release game that springs to mind as bad in that era was DNForever. Otherwise you could call things like Quantum Theory a hidden gem and that gave you smallpox! Swap in Dark Sector, Wolfenstein, Eternal Sonata or Dark Void as they all had problems but were mechanically competent at least and had a little bit of innovation.
@@SecondOpinionGames1 Ace Combat was brilliant. Loved it going all arcadey in the close up battling, gave it an incredible cinematic feeling. For me much better than trying to shoot a dot from 3 miles away. But i can understand how "purists" (and I use that with a lot of disdain) would not appreciate that direction.
Ace Combat Assault Horizon is garbage and needs to be left to die on this generation. If you really knew what you were talking about here you’d have suggested Ace Combat 6 instead.
