The Story of the Xbox (Complete Series)

I've been revisiting my old XBox systems and happy to see the scene is alive and well in 2020.

I still play mine from time to time. Still have games that I haven't played to completion and even a few that I haven't played at all. 

I have the original Xbox, 2 360s - one white, the other a Xbox 360 Elite Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2 edition (bought for $50), and an Xbox One Battlefield One edition. I may or may not get a Series X.

I finally got around to jail-breaking mine a few years ago. It's still an emulation beast and XBMC monster!

Initially I was indifferent to the XBSX and PS5, but I have been converted. Many of my OG XBOX games will work and the 360 list is pretty good. I skipped the 360 generation entirely and the games are dirt cheap now, so this is looking like a good deal. There are some blarring omissions, like Dino crisis 3 and jet set radio future, but that's what my OG XB is for. The reason I skipped the 360 was the RROD issues. I've looked into trying to get a later model 360, but decided the series x was the better value. It may not have perfect compatibility, but it's impressive and there's a good list to get my feet wet.

I actually really want a PS5 now too, for the PS4 backwards compatibility. It's the biggest selling feature IMO. I have 2 working CECHA01 model "Fat" PS3s. These are fully backwards compatible and in good shape. The second is my backup! Both are well cared for and will not be experiencing a YLOD if I can help it (and I can)! So with 2 consoles I'll have the entire PlayStation ecosystem! And with the XBSX, I'll have access to a good chunk of the XB ecosystem. That's alot of games for just 3 consoles! Even though there aren't very many SX and PS5 games yet, they have a large back catalog to explore.
