The PS3/Wii/Xbox 360 era was a great time to be a gamer. There was so many great games.
Shame to look at where the gaming industry is going compared to the 7th generation
@@paulgraham7443 It's not all bad. There are still plenty of great games out there with more on the way to look forward to.
@@Donald_Allan more along the lines of the half finished, fix later but not all devs
@@paulgraham7443 I always find it interesting that people such as yourself who don't work in and probably never will work in the videogames industry think they know more about videogames development than those who work in the industry. I always get amazed at the amount of people that complain about developers fixing things later. At least they can do that now. Do you remember the days where games consoles couldn't be connected to the internet? If released on a cartridge or a disc and it had bugs there wasn't necessarily an easy fix. Where as now developers can at least release patches that can be downloaded which can resolve the issue. There is far bigger things in life to worry about than a patch to fix a bug or something which is broken on a game.

I still use the Wii in 2022 because homebrewing the thing is absolutely insane (Using RiiConnect24, WiiConnect24’s revival, Wiimmfi, Nintendo WFC revival) there is a lot of reasons to use the wii after homebrewing it.
What benefits do you get?
I still frequently play wii sports
@@clarencekaant8005 the news channel
I play my modded wii nearly every day 😂
Wish my family didn’t give away our Nintendo Wii and I bought ganes from Wii shop on there too :( sad days :(
The PS3 is one of my all-time favorite systems. It's the system that had everything I wanted.
HD
Blu-Ray Player
Free Online
Backwards Compatibility
Upgradable Storage including SSD
& of course, a whole bunch of amazing exclusives.
You can also put your own music on there also
Fuck yea
Ps5 is the same but no free online dam
@@leftyg4587 ps5's exclusive lineup isnt even close to ps3's
u forget 3D System
This has to be by far one of my favorite videos from Austin. Just the nostalgia from Wii Sports and the classic music. 🔥

That Xbox 360 takes me back, my first console was an Xbox 360 S. I had so much fun with it. The Kinect sensor was actually my favorite part, and to me it seemed to work pretty well and was generally reliable. I know people like to hate on the Kinect, but it was part of my childhood and I'll always have a place in my heart for it.
Grow up. You are not a child anymore.
@@imwellshook1891 okay

I had a wii from my cousin when i was three
It would've been nice to show the 360's "blades" gui. The jump from playing my OG Xbox throughout highschool and getting the 360 Christmas of 2005 during my freshman year of college was an incredibly exciting time. It was just as exciting to me as jumping from my Sega Genesis and SNES to my first Playstation in 1995.
Xbox’s menu nowadays is very bland.
@@mosesdevadass6056 I haven't messed around with the Series ui yet, nor did I ever have much time the One's ui. I mean, I have used the One's ui in the past, but i guess you are right about it being somewhat unmemeorable? I guess that's one way to put it.
that would be cool,but xbox 360s on blades are rare and expensive

Me and my brother still play the wii along with the switch playing the wii gives us nostalgia
This really was a trip down memory lane for me. I still own my Wii (first console) then got the Fat PS3 when it first launched followed by the 360 when Kinect came out. I still have them to this day and sometimes fire up the old games for a bit. Although I’ve moved onto playing on PC. My PS3 was still able to be used as a media player just like back when I first brought it home from Fry’s
Grew up with 360 and Wii, fell in love with PS3 afterwards. The exclusive library to this day just feels unmatched to me.
Most of my memories are stored in the PS3. Such a great time in gaming
I actually have a PS3 at home that I've been playing on for a few years. It's still going and luckily I haven't seen any problems with it. And honestly, the old graphics and the constant purr is very nostalgic and sounds better than the silent modern stuff
Similar here, over Christmas last year I dug up my old PS3 and installed an SSD. Downloaded the Sly Cooper and Ratchet&Clank collections. Fun project and trip down memory lane.
Same
If I where you I would actually modify your system that way you could backup your games that way you don't have to run the hard drive all the time.
I got a PS3 a couple years ago from a friend at work. I ended up adding homebrew and replacing the HDD with a 1TB SSD. I still play on it frequently. it plays PS1 and PS2 games just fine. The major downside is what Austin alluded to. The PS3 has HDCP protection baked into the hardware, so you can't stream from it easily. I've seen people buy cheap HDMI splitters that supposedly strip that protection, but I'm not in a position to test that theory.
Same I use mine to play Minecraft online
This video is bringing tears to my eyes! So much nostalgia 😩🥺😭
Fun fact: The XMB was worked on by Q-Games, which is Dylan Cuthbert's personal studio. Dylan Cuthebrt was the project lead for Star Fox 2, seeing the project through completion, and currently makes the PixelJunk series. He was also brought back on board for Star Fox Command on the 3DS, and was behind the failed The Tomorrow Children, which will rerelease next month.
Fun stuff!
Still using my PS3 and catching up on my backlog. Recently upgraded it with a Samsung 1TB ssd and menu browsing feels smoother and load times faster on digital purchases.
I added one to my ps3 and it solved a lot of frame drops on demon souls for me.
I've been meaning to swap out my ps3 hard drive for an ssd for a while now.
I never played GTA 5, and I own it.
That ssd will die it doesn’t support trim and you’re not gaining any speed boosts
@@miregoji2959 fake liberal news, go work at cnn
Proud to have experienced 7th gen gaming. Still have a lot of PS3 backlogs but that's alright. X360 and PS3 were both amazing systems. I currently use my PS3 to store my PS2 library (so much love for that console) and use my 360 for better versions of third-party games. And my wife loves the kinect, it's the only way we can get in a good and fun workout lol. Thanks for the video guys!
If your wife loves the kinect you should just buy her a VR headset. Literally kinect and Wii on steroids.
Had a brief stint where we used our Kinect for Mocap. Not really interested in 3D animation now, but the technology on that thing was impressive.
Same glad to experience the 7th generation gaming, when the 360 came out I was 11 years old .
I want to get my wife into the gaming scene...
Iam a die hard ps1 ps2 ps3 ps4 .an ps5 ...an all Xbox but 360 ..an nintendo switch...any suggestion
Hi Joshua, glad to hear about your love for PS consoles. If you have a Switch, try playing Overcooked! with her, it’s a great & fun co-op game with lots of content. Switch Sports and Mario Party are good choices for non-gamers as well. For the PS5, check out It Takes Two and A Way Out, both are from the same developer and focus mainly on co-op. My wife and I loved the latter, she finds It Takes Two too challenging for her novice skills. And if you guys like story-driven thrillers that are easy to play, definitely try Heavy Rain. You mentioned you like all Xbox but 360. I’m the opposite, I only like the 360 lol. If you can find a cheap 360, do try playing Kinect with your wife. She might love Dance Central, Kinect Sports, or even Zumba!
I keep and play regularly my wii, ps3 and the 360, my favourite generation of consoles. They're still very fun to play, there are a lot of great games on these platforms

I always enjoyed the PS3.
While the PS3 original 60GB model did have full backwards compatibility to PS1 & PS2 discs, but one of the bestest thing I liked about the console is that due to the way the console was designed, as long as you have a portable drive that’s in a FAT32 format (USB flash drive is already in this format) you can actually transfer any compatible digital (video & audio) files you may have laying around in a external drive and in your computer.
Meaning that if you happen to have a bunch of movies or TV shows digitally saved somewhere that’s compatible to play on the PS3, as long as you have a decent internal space in the console and have any USB flash drives just sitting around, you can actually store a very large amount of TV shows on your console. You can’t actually do this on the PS4 or PS5. 😞
the nostalgia in this video is overwhelming! i still have a working ps3 so it's nice to go back and play some childhood favorites every now and again 😊
PS3 was my favorite console of all time, with so many games like Minecraft, Disgaea 4, Gran Turismo 5, and way more.
gran turismo 5 🥹
Disgaea
With Disgaea you sure are certified man of culture
Hi Austin, Dude this just bought back so many memories :)
Congratulations 🏅🏅🏅
You just won a package!!!
I remember watching Wrestlemania live on my Xbox 360 in 2016 and being amazed that hardware that old could still do that. It's still crazy how capable it is today.
It's finally here 🤣😄
Yeah i watched 2018 WrestleMania on my PS3
I have a Wii and a Xbox 360, literally some of the best consoles of the 2000’s, not counting the 360’s red ringing issue. If you have a Wii, softmodding it with letterbomb or home brew can make online functionality work again.
Honestly this generation has aged pretty well. Personally while I do love the ps3 if you were to pick up one of the consoles get a 360. Controllers come in both Wireless (with AA batteries meaning no dead rechargeable battery like the ps3) and even a wired version. Make sure to get a slim version because it's more reliable.
But if you want a older model get a Jasper Phat Or A Falcon Or Jasper Elite
@@CollynPlayz better off getting just a Jasper. Falcons are a toss up because half of them have that E74 error and still have the 90NM GPU. The Jasper has both 65NM chips so they are more reliable.
@@TheBadElf that's not 100% true. There are a good chunk of PS3 3rd party games that run better than the Xbox 360. Esp in the 2009-2013 years. 2006-2008, Yea you are better off getting a 360 3rd party game. Burnout Paradise was the first 3rd party game to my knowledge that was developed for the PS3 first then ported to the 360 then to the PC and this game was released in January 2008.
Na, I'd definitely say get a ps3. You can mod one EASILY nowadays and both consoles had basically the same games except exclusives.
@@sabianwarner5316 out of the 2 for sure the ps3 these days, but in its prime online gaming on the 360 and the hours I’ve spent on cod4- bo2, halo games and gta 4 are timeless to me
It’s so weird to me how people like “look back” on these consoles. I never stopped using my old consoles, just less frequently. I still play my 360 and ps3 at least once a week.
PC with emulators all the way.
@@unnamed715 me who play emulator in mobile
Watching this a little late, but my dad made a lot of money buying and selling the wii’s back then 😂 He was def part of the problem
Those 7th gen consoles were one of the BEST generations ever. Awesome features like gyro sensors and motion sensor stuffs were actually very exciting to use back then.
except that RRoD on those original 360s though.
Don't forget the YLOD on ps3
Also the generation of consoles with the most problems.
My SO's original 360 GPU gave up in an online multiplayer game of Halo 3. That was an ouch. Was fun watching the textures go from normal to corrupted, tho.
@@GenerationZ313 YLOD sucked too, but I currently own a phat one (CECHE model), and never experienced such a thing. but I can say how BAD those CELL chips are in no doubt XD
@@hellhoundfkor10146 It's not even the CELL. It's sometimes the RSX and a lot of the time the capacitors behind the GPU.
I love my 360 and wii so much, I have a ps5 sitting right next to me but it will never compare to those amazing memories I had with the old consoles
Good stuff man looking for the next one game on

It's so funny seeing all of the recent coverage about retro consoles. I remember a lot about my 360 but I don't recall it being so loud. Maybe that is because I had a full home theater/surround sound system so when I was gaming, the sound of the console just faded into the background.
the fact that the 360 is now considered retro makes me feel old as hell
anyways its mostly the disc drive thats loud as hell though some consoles had noiser fans than others and the slims were a lot quieter
10 years of memories with PS3, man I loved that console!
Doubt it would go very far but now I'm curious how building the ultimate wii would go
VERY WELL, especially with homebrew
So much support on Facebook it's not even funny. I say go for it. You'll have allot of fun while setting it up
I have a PS5, but I just bought a PS3 because I missed out during the early 2000s. Shockingly, there's STILL some amazing games you can play, even in 2022. So many exclusives on there that sony refuses to bring to the ps4 and 5. I'd definitely recommend getting one, if you find it in good condition
I was rocking these systems till a few months ago. Before March of this year the last 2 systems I bought was a Wii and a Switch. I bought both a few months after they were released.
One of my favorite things about the 360 was the avatar games. Idk if it was just me but I loved playing those games when I was younger. The 2 I played the most were Kinect adventures and avatar warfare
i have them all and they still rocks!! i love this console gen
6:36 I'm dead bro the Wii music slaps 😂😂
I collect consoles myself, to play games on whenever I feel like it from my past, as well as inviting other people to join for fun times. I have over 20 consoles atm haha
To me, yes, the PS3/XBOX360/Wii are still amazing to play in this day and age, ESPECIALLY considering how many new games are currently gimped by microtransactions and other monetary shizzle.
Yea I would agree I run a 3 Xbox 360 halo 3 LAN party no micro transactions just pop in game disc and play
I'm pretty similar to you my guy! I have around 20ish consoles all hooked and ready to play and my friends love to come over for "game night". All my Xbox consoles are hooked into an Ethernet switch for System Link and I've got three displays (two flatscreens and one CRT) for when the crowd gets big. It's a ton of fun, but even I have to admit that it takes a lot of effort, care and money to upgrade and upkeep this monstrous setup. Tolerable to me since it's my hobby but others would think I'm crazy or wasting money. To me, you just can't put a solid price on fun especially if it's something you can share with other people in your life.
I'm glad the 7th gen took as long as it actually did.
One reason the 360 store works so well is because of backwards compatibility. A few games (probably for legal reasons) have to be bought through the old xbox marketplace in a web browser or on a 360 even if they're enhanced and you just want to play them on a Series S/X. So not only does backwards compatibility let you play old games on Series S/X, but it's also probably a huge reason why old 360s are still so functional today.
6:03 You gotta admit the Wii music slapped.
The Wii was so good for so many reasons 🙏🏽👍🏾

Man I was literally trying to get my hands on a used console as I can't afford any modern ones and I see this video. Thanks Austin ❤️
I would recommend u a Xbox 360 Slim with a Kinect and 2 controllers and gta iv and modern warfare 2 and u should have a lot of fun
Watch a few videos on the different models of xbox 360 then get a 360 S or a 360 E and pick up a lot of 360 games for cheap
finally, the old gaming consoles are getting powered on for the first time in years, never thought i'd see a youtuber using them in 2022
Spawn Wave just uploaded a Xbox 360 elite video teardown a few minutes ago if you like that kind of stuff
You can see plenty using them today, what the fuck are you talking about?
What? Lol plenty of channels still actually game on them lol
You haven't been looking very hard. Just search "playing X in 2022" or anything similar and you'll get results, to say nothing of chanels like ModernVintageGamer that tend to go over console mods and hacks that make them more convenient. The PS Vita and 3DS are both easy to hack and get running backups and homebrew, for example.
4:56 Gotta love how the hosts are doing the manual work while the producer is getting his groove on 😂
0:04 Short answer, Yes.
For 360 and PS3.
If you have a CRT, the Wii as well.
The PS3 is solid, but upgrading it to an ssd makes it so much better. Though most of the games run at 720p, the games still look solid today just like some of the 360 games.
How do I upgrade it to an SSD?
@@DialloMoore503 Buy a 2.5” SATA SSD and swap out the hard drive inside the console. I’m not sure which PS3 you have, but replacing the drive is not complicated.
@@ramiking745
Thank you!
i think the 7th gen was the most iconic generation of the console wars
If you hack the Wii, you can get the missing programs, as well as you can add custom multiplayer games to some games, if you run it off an external drive. Another feature I like is to get custom-made games for the Wii.
My stance on the Wii is that the backwards compatible one is still very playable but the Wii-only versions are not. This is not due to the Wii games but the lack of GameCube support. The Wii took a major risk design-wise with the Wiimote and nunchuck but there are a lot of good games that run better with a proper controller and the Wii controller expansions drain batteries too fast.
I’m so glad I was able to get a backwards compatible Wii from a thrift store a couple of years ago, it was $10 for just the console so I stole the wires from my other one. It even had Wii Sports that I was able to sell for $15 to a pawn shop shortly after, keeping my copy so I effectively got paid $5 to take a Wii.
These consoles will always have a special place in my heart. They are what I grew up with coming on from like age 12 or something like that. Still great buys imo.
I got mine a day after my 14th birthday and it still works. In fact last year I finally finished the first God Of War game on it and plan on getting to the sequels soon as well as other franchises such as Ratchet & Clank.
I got a Wii on my 5th birthday back then
Xbox 360 is one of the best consoles of all time. Collecting for it is super cheap, too
Only one I had at the time was the Wii. Loved playing Wii Sports and Mario Kart so much.
the first console i've ever wanted was a ps3, mostly because all of the cool racing games came out in that era (gt5, blur etc)

The PS3 is amazing when cfw is installed on it, especially the CECHA01/CECHB01 model because it plays PS2 games natively aswell.
and the CECHC and CECHE models too, except those are partial hardware emulation but still relatively good in comparison
I'd love to get a hold of one of those, but they can be really expensive. So I'm happy for now with my non-BC fat PS3 complemented by a PS2.
9:45 made me laugh way too hard. Ken was the voice of everyone watching who was confused af watching Austin stretch LOL.
Austin K. Evans*
9:00 Tennis was a banger honestly it's between that and Bowling
thanks, it actually let me through so i could download it.
A benefit to using the PS3 in 2022 is that the Online Multiplayer is free so it's technically the cheapest to own and use
And some games are still online, like Need For Speed Rivals and Most Wanted 2012 (and that rocket League beta-ish game)
Wii U online multiplayer it's also free
PS3 was gold, Burning CDs to play better music in Gran Turismo 5 and 6 made Deployments so much better or just not having to connect to the internet to play great games. I still have a 2tb Firecuda in mine with Dreamcast and PS1,2,and 3 games. Pretty solid machine and some old pictures and videos from my first digital cameras from 2000-2009.
The Wii is still a console I use since I put the home brew channel on it. It’s nice to see other people using it, even after all this time.
Hey happy to see xbox 360 still use able in 2022 . Ken what where you wearing at Comic-con while you were asking questions to Steve He at Comic-con i notice you by your voice an your laugh but sad to say you did not get the video you asked for on the channel (I screamed EMOTIONAL DAMAGE in Comic-con)
You could install Linux on a PS3 and use it for emulation. Sony officially supported installation of linux as they wanted it to also function as a home computer.
The important word there being could :( Sony giveth, Sony tooketh away
They removed it within the first two years of it being on the market unfortunately
@@onhold1706 *3 and a half years, Linux support (Other OS) was removed in firmware 3.21, which came out on April 1st 2010.
PS3 linux is pretty bad.

I still use my ps3 all the time, SSD upgraded, use ethernet and PSOne servers for ps3 game can still play online. great library and alot of fun. will always be one of my fav consoles
I bought a Xbox 360 elite at Goodwill for $20 and it works! After recovering my 360 digital games I forgot I purchased X-men and Simpsons arcade and MK collection years ago. I was still able to download them again!
I feel like a kid again!

Gostei do video ê muito bom gosto muito do seu canal valeu 👍
when austin went to match his mii and went right next to it i died... in laughter also when austins 360 was super loud so is mine whenever i turn on my 360 it sounds the same
You Guys had so much fun with this video . Play old Nintendos and Game Cube next time ! As always Stupid Funny ! Denkie Rocks shirt please ? Send me.
I remember one day like 2-3 months into the wii's life I was over at my grandma's apartment. We'd just finished up dinner and she tells me to get ready we're going to the mall. She never does that. We go to EB Games. I'm even more confused, hoping she's about to surprise me. The lady in front of us is returning a wii. My grandmother goes up and asks to buy a wii. The guy says this is the only one but it's sealed, asks if she's okay buying it. She does.
She spent like the next 2ish years proclaiming "why don't people just go to the store and buy a wii machine ? There is no shortage. I got one just fine." Not realizing the lottery she'd just won.
I guess the 360 is the most usable for apps and stuff today, but the Wii and PS3 have the most modding potential. Personally, I see more value in owning a PS3 compared to a 360 because the Series consoles have some backwards compatibility and the best, most iconic games work on modern hardware. Meanwhile, all PS3 games are trapped on the PS3, unless you want to stream at 720p, lol. I would rank the consoles from this time period as
1. PS3
2. Modded Wii
3. 360
If you own a backward compatible PS3 and a PS5 you can play most playstation games ever made (a few PS4 games don't like to run on the PS5 and some PS1 games also don't like to run on a more modern console).
Interestingly the PS3 is actually *forward* compatible, if you plug a DS4 or dualsense controller into a PS3 it will actually work.
I've had a PS3 since I was in Elementary school and I love it to death. Close to finishing up high school now.
I owned all 3 consoles during this generation but got the 360 at the start and PS3 towards the end.
Still remember getting the xbox 360 for Christmas with games and being so hyped.
1:01 ☝️🤓
1:02 ikr
I still only use an xbox 360 lmao
Pa3 will forever be my favorite console, tons of great memories were made playing with it ❤
I remember back in the day they had a game show but came on every day at a certain time and you'd play trivia against people around the world
The PS3 gets a lot of flak, but it’s arguably my favorite console ever. It was also a great blu ray player. UI beats Xbox and Wii and even the PS4/PS5 today.
You could set whatever picture you wanted for background, I had a partially nude pic of my gf at the time as background. Really hated the cash grab concept of ps4 where you had to buy themes instead of customizing as you want to.
It was pretty much the only blueray player back in the day. For the price you couldn't buy a blueray player that cheap you basically got a free console with it.
@@Tomazack i remember downloading the goofy looking ios theme from the browser
My favourite was the original Xbox when my friend had a new music cd i could save it on my Xbox then i didn’t have to buy it
Eh Dunno about ui
It certainly sleeker on first glance
But the 360 was much more functional

Unfortunately my PS3 overheated after 10 years of use. These old consoles need maintenance if you want them to last. SSD upgrades are always a bonus too.
I was just playing my 360 a month ago.. still works great! Gotta find all my wii cables but I’m sure one of them work.. and my ps3 is in great shape.
Just bought a Series S after basically a decade of beyond behind and watching other people gaming (I difetti have the time or the money to game and I missed a while generation but the Series S and Gamepass where compelling and cheap enough to bring me back) but I played my 360 from time to time and tried watching netflix and youtube on it and it's still great, especially for retrogaming
7th gen was my favorite gen. I loved all those consoles
I remember they had the Wii sports and Wii fit in our gym class when I was 17 and remember playing against some girls who got pissed when I was about to get a 300 in bowling (because it’s really easy to cheeze if you know how), but they shut the system off in a rage.
Playing oblivion on xbox360 was one of the most memorable thing from my past
When it comes to the wii, the best thing to do is to homebrew it. It opensup so much.
Wii is actually awesome right now. I use it to play Guitar Hero(seriously, it was the cheapest way to play those games a the time), and for GameCube emulation(I have a softmodded Wii). I do have an Xbox Series S that I use for emulation of older systems, but playing GC on Wii means using hardware emulation, and it's very good.
it's not really "hardware emulation" more like actual native backwards compatibility because the Wii is just Gamecubes hardware with slightly higher clockspeeds
I have an RGH'd XBOX 360, and a softmodded PS3 and Wii... still play and love all 3 even in 2022.
Yep! All 3 are amazing once modded! Almost as good as the original xbox once modded lol.
I loved the Wii it was the best I loved all the sports games on it It's so cool those sounds just brought me back
Fun fact on the main screen on the ps3 if you have a duel shock controller that has motion control you can shake it to move particals on the main menu
I remember playing Skylanders on the PS3, that was good times, we had a really old TV before, like not flat screen, and then a christmas we got a full HD 43 inch TV and the PS3 with Skylanders, I remember me and my brother being so happy
7th gen came out at a time when the internet had really taken off, which led to the community aspect of gaming becoming significantly stronger than it has been before. +Everything from Forums, websites, to CZcams. At the same time as the internet the piece of the respective consoles had grown stronger.
The only one I had of these was the Wii. I LOVED that console. I wish I still had mine but it stopped reading discs a few years after I bought it.
I had a small library of Wii and GameCube games for it that kept me occupied for hours.
@@EricasTouch I think I spent 100+ hours in Mario Kart Wii alone since that was preety much the only game I had
It was probably the optic disc drive that needed changing. We had the same issue with our Wii. (After 13 yrs. of playing) It sat for three years unused. Until one day, I said I wanted to fix it. Found a used complete optic disc drive on Amazon for $25. Me and my daughter changed it out. Me and my family have been playing it ever since.
Love or FAT PS3 and Wii
