So today I turned on my Xbox 360 for the first time after I bought a PC

Before I had my laptop, I had a Xbox 360. After last Christmas, the thing has mostly been sitting idle in my living room. Today I turned it on and threw a couple games in it.

Far Cry 4 for the Xbox 360 is a mediocre game. It renders at 720p as far as I could tell, and playing with a controller is much harder then it used to be.

Forza Horizon 1 is the game most optimized for this piece of last gen hardware that I own -- and it still runs like a beauty. It's great, and I hopped back into it like usual.

Fallout 3/NV were both ridiculously hard to play, because I was so used to PC. I played Fallout 3 more because I didn't have it on PC.

Skyrim was... something. Again, a little harder then before, but besides that, I was so far ahead on console then on PC. Fun.

I gave a couple of EDF titles a whirl, and that was fun. TPS' are not bad.

Batman Arkham City and Origins were right at home for me. I play with controllers on both platforms. City was easy to jump into, Origins was not, because I don't own that disaster on PC. It was a gift, so I can't really complain.

Halo 3/3 ODST/Reach/4 were easy enough. Same case with Far Cry 4 about the controller issue.

MKvDC was meh. Again, another gift to me for my birthday. Can't complain.

I did try this game called Ace Combat 6, which to my surprise, was actually a good game. It took a while to get through one mission. Still, it actually looked really good, considering it came out in 2007/2008.

Minecraft was very... difficult to play, to say the least. I stopped playing it on PC once I started building up a Steam library, but at heart, Minecraft will always be a favorite for me, because it was my first PC game.

After all of that I went back to my laptop and went positive in CSGO. Then I dicked around on Just Cause 2 at a smooth 56 FPS. I don't think I'd ever sell this 360, just because everyone's on to next-gen already, and my somewhat limited library of games should suffice until this thing truly dies. Thanks for reading!
