Xbox 360 Games Are Drying Up...

Let's chat about certain Xbox 360 games becoming impossible to find as the availability on sites like eBay, Mercari and Amazon dry up completely. Which games will forever be expensive and hard to find versus games that may see a decrease in price and an increase in availability as time goes on? #xbox360 #retrogaming #xbox360

Hey Pete i know you like power metal do you like Judas Priest since your favorite band covered them

[@MilkWasABadChoice17]

Its unbelievable to me that for over 10 years, nobody wanted most of these games. GameStop almost couldnt give them away. I have about 200-250 360 games (barely any sports/COD type of games that were printed in the millions) and my average cost is under $5 per game. This is also going to happen to the Wii and PS3 (again), it's about to be 20 years for all of them and thats when the boom normally happens.

[@bobslobbins2864]

IME they still don't sell for these prices in brick and mortar stores. There has been a copy of Tenchu Z at a local place for about 28USD for longer than I can remember.

Xbox 360 is the best Xbox system Microsoft ever created, IMO. It's one generation I preferred Xbox to Playstation!

[@ADa89mixus]

Bar the technical rrod fiasco that made owners run like hell. Imo this was the start of the downfall among other reasons like the catastrofic focus of the one on kinect and sports, no games etc,...

[@alyxoj1361]

OG Xbox was the goat. It just had this attitude that hit different. Also so many exclusives and best place for multiplats. It was made by a bunch of guys that just wanted to make something badass and somehow convinced Bill Gates to let them. And it shows.

[@bmaga123]

@alyxoj1361 I love the OG Xbox, but the 360 was Microsoft at its peak. They perfected Xbox live, the interface, and controller IMO!

[@alyxoj1361]

@@bmaga123 Yeah I can totally understand your opinion. They really refined things, Xbox live was slappin. I think UI slowly went downhill after the Blades but its was still usable. I just wish they comitted. OG Xbox didnt need a massive UI but I love the idea that your console is like this powerful reactor and the boot up sequence looking like their is this highly dangerous unknown green substance powering your system is just friggin cool.

Sad what happened to Xbox. They could’ve taken over, but then Don mattrick or whatever put Xbox almost on it’s death bed

[@guygardner8308]

Will you play the game? Will you enjoy? Yes, pay the price. No? is expensive cus it's "rare", skip it. Video games are not investments. That that 15-100$ and invest it in stocks. Buy what you love. I learned that in the 80's with the B&W indie comic book glut. just cuz it's rare doesn't mean it will hold it's value, and if the comic sucks, no one will want it for .25 cents once the FOMO has died. A game has to have game play value for it to keep it's worth. Alien Breed Trilogy is an example of a game worth buying and keeping, because it has replayabilty, and it's complete, and most importantly fun

[@lukeautosymbol2668]

I agree. Buy the games for fun, not because you think you'll "profit". I've done this in other markets and the swells are often a flash in the pan. Things inflate for a while, then they deflate, and then they don't come back because people moved onto the next thing. I've been left holding the bag before, and people won't learn until they themselves are left holding the bag, too.

I recently found Peter Jackson King Kong for 360 at Goodwill for 2.99. Had no idea about the value of the game until after I bought it.

[@samrasinlic6084]

Funny how a few years ago people were practically giving away their Xbox 360 collections on fb marketplace and resellers would avoid buying them because it wouldn’t sell for them. Resellers were so focused on picking up Nintendo and Sony related retro games that I was able to scoop up a lot of my collection through marketplace. Friends and family members would ask why are you buying these games that nobody wants. My response was “ the games are dirt cheap and the 360 has an amazing library of games” I knew eventually 360 games would sky rocket in price at some point and I’m glad I picked up pretty much all the games I wanted. Especially all the jrpgs. My favourite system to collect for sure!!

Amazing video! I’ve been taking your advice over the past year and it keeps paying off. You’re right on the money with what’s going on and your market analysis is the one I trust the most! I’m in Canada and definitely feel the sky-high shipping prices. Especially shipping within Canada. If I were to ship a tracked parcel to an address down the street, it costs over twice as much as it would to ship to anywhere in the US. It’s kinda crazy. No wonder Canadians aren’t buying Canadian listings that much.

[@StevoSupremo]

I've been trying to buy some of the remaining 360 stuff I've wanted for the past year without having to resort to eBay and its been tough.

I’m in Australia and the games that have dried up for me have been Blades of Time, X Blades and Fatal Inertia. Only ones available have Italian covers with no English on the cover at all. Just thankful that I collected over 350 XB360 games prior to the fomo. What I’m concentrating on now because we’re quickly running out of time is DLC. That’s something that’s going to be gone forever no matter how much disposable money we have.

Have you noticed every time you go to search up a sort of uncommon type of game, almost all of the available copies are from Canada if you are in USA. It’s like these games don’t exist within the US.

Great video, sir! I an glad to see others have caught on to using available listings as a rarity gauge. I hate to sound like a hipster, but I began collecting 360 before it was cool. (4+years ago I began) 😅 I have a library of around 430, including the uncommon and rare titles. The prices now trip me out, because I bought a lot of them in the 5-10 dollar range. Fatal Inertia in particular was widely available and cheap for a long time, so its rise took even me by surprise.

[@lukeautosymbol2668]

This is nonsense. It's sensationalism that's artificially inflating the market for certain games based on driving FOMO. When KZbinrs and influencers do stuff like this, it's really market manipulation for no good reason. What they won't tell you is that *they* are the ones driving the demand--not the market itself. Markets don't magically behave drastically for no reason--they're always guided. The fact is that the vast majority of games for the 360 are still cheap or at reasonable prices--and are obviously available. Yall don't even know what it means for things to "dry up". Try collecting for NeoGeo and report your results on prices and availability. Too wild? Try the Saturn. Wait, still too wild? Then try for the PS2. Oh look, guess what we learned today? Collecting for the 360 is obviously the cheapest to collect for, and the games are far from "drying up". So yeah, if you think things are getting crazy for the 360, you're being a clown. Go get some perspective on real collectors consoles and games and then you'll understand that even with the prices going up for certain games, 360 is still peanuts with high supply. Or if you want some real fun, try getting into the vintage music gear market and tell me how available and affordable things are. And yes, the KZbinrs (we call 'em GearTubers) ruin that market, too. I bought a Roland MS-1 back in 2018 for $100 and remember not being able to find a single one anywhere on the internet for a couple years between then and now. I've never once experienced anything close to that for a single video game on the major classic consoles. Like I said, yall *really* don't know what it means for things to dry up. I also bought an Akai S-612 in 2018 for $40. Checked on price in 2020 and found only one online for over $2,000. So don't listen to these guys. I see them come up in my recommended, listen to the clownery, and have to offer a rational perspective. The supply and demand is fine--don't let these guys fool you.

[@Apocalyptic_Sentinel]

It's about time someone says it, so I agree with you. If it weren't for these youtubers creating artificial scarcity there wouldn't be prices rising like this on certain games. Before the videos most of these games cost a fraction of what people are listing them for. It's disgusting. Also I agree with you that compared to other systems like Saturn and Neo Geo, 360 games are hardly scarce. Maybe these KZbinrs should stop with the fomo shit.

[@ViciousFirearms]

It’s actually quite amusing seeing the prices for all these absolute garbage shovelware games that literally no one gave a hoot about before get jacked up like they’re actually worth something. I give it about a year till these games go back to being $5 or less once these people realize that no one wants to buy their bottom of the barrel bargain bin shovelware game for $100 or more…

It's going to be hard to believe, but I got a excellent copy of autobahn polizei in a huge lot of 360 games I got for really cheap

I remember passing on Autobahn Polizei in stores for the stupid reason that it had cars that resembled real cars but which weren't licensed by the manufacturers. I wouldn't pay what it sells for now but I regret not buying it 15-ish years ago since I think I would've enjoyed it despite the lack of logos on the cars. Also, for people that haven't played it, don't let the cheap price put you off, Project Gotham Racing 4 is still one of my overall favourite racing games, especially because I loved seeing Quebec City appear as a location in a racing game. I wish that Project Gotham Racing, once the XBox's marquee racing franchise, had gotten more games after PGR 4.

Retro gaming is really on the rise (and the Xbox 360 and PS3 are considered retro consoles now they are almost 20 years old) now because like you said, The burn out with modern gaming is real. Ppl are sick of the day one patches, constant updates, always online etc. paying these ridiculous prices for content that should have shipped with the game. Also another problem with modern gaming is what i like to call the ubisoft effect. Games are just getting too bloated with content. FF7 Rebirth is a perfect example. That game felt bloated. Like I was playing an Assassin's Creed game. As I get older, I want to play games that respect my time. I'm not a 17 year old kid with all the time in the world, I'm in my 40s and I have responsibilities. and a lot of what you do in these types of open world RPGs just feels like a waste of time. They basically just turn everything into a mini game. I miss when games were just linear. People are going back to older games because it just brings up back to a simpler time. Lately I have playing a lot of PS2 games again. and have gone back into collecting games for the PS2.

One thing I have noticed about Xbox 360 games is that MANY of the discs are extremely brittle. I was shocked at how easily they break from just droppig them a few inches or even just pushing them into the locking mechanism in the case or even just taking them out of the case. I broke like 30 Xbox 360 games just taking them out of the case and it's just getting worse every year. :/ The disc material is literally disintegrating. At least in the climate here in Sweden.

I'm glad i bought all those Xbox 360 games from GameStop when they were really cheap. i remember when the ps3 hype was going on with all the games going up in price and was thinking the same thing i glad i was buying all these games for cheap not necessarily for collecting but I love that generation of games.

I love these videos. The fear and uncertainty that many casual gamers will go through as they can't find those physical niche or uncommon titles for reasonable prices is now a thing of the past. I've been buying up 360 games ever since Sony announced they were going to close the PS3 store 3 years ago and once prices started spiking that should have been a wake up call to everyone that this was going to happen with xbox360 store also. You snooze, you lose.

Heyyy glad to see you Grabing up the games . Me as welll I just made a video covering 2 of the games. You picked up

[@warehousedave7937]

I like your channel! Keep it up

Luckily I found a copy of Fatal Enertia for a pound in a charity shop years ago. It surprised me that the price had increased so much.

Capcom digital collection i believe will go up quite sharply, it has street fighter 2 HD remix which isn’t backwards compatible so once the Xbox live store shuts down and the “probably” soon to be ps3 store this will be the only way you can obtain the game

This feels like my redemption arc, I have a near complete 360 collection (With all regional exclusives) and for the longest time, people asked me "Why?", to which I told them that it was my favorite system of all time. Now everyone is getting nostalgic for it 😂

[@slmjm8849]

I'm not really buying rare 360 games but more or less games that I've never played back then due to me simply being uninterested. Just bought Darksiders 2 and Fable Anniversary. Beats purchasing a modern $70 broken game truthfully.

[@jrpggamer93]

Great video dude !! As always !

[@JudgeCraven]

In honor of the original video's 15th anniversary, updated Xbox 360 collection?

[@inuyasha4503]

Surprised to hear about Tenchu Z my sis bought it when it came out and she let me borrow it I liked it so much I 100% the achievements then went and bought a pre owned copy at GameStop later on cheap that I've never played that has set on my shelf for god knows how many years. Super happy to hear about its price situation was such a fun game I'm proud to own.

[@BasicSneedEducation]

Dude some games have like 4 listings now. Stuff like Spectral Force 3 or Way of the Samurai 3.

For me, the 360 is my all time fav console. It revolutionized gaming for me. I had moved to a different state and the 360 kept me in touch with my friends by gaming with them and also making new friends. I enjoy a number of different games from Retro to Current and the 360 just had it all imo. I've been collecting for the 360 since 2018 grabbing games I've played and games I never knew existed. I've amassed over 300+ games on it so far making it the most physical games I own for any single console. I appreciate the tips on certain games. I'm at the point where thankfully my collection is where I want it to be minus some very rare shooters I'd prolly end up never owning unless I cough up a ton of money.

[@user-go2kw5lr2b]

Yes, I'm done with xbox one. Call of duty up date, 193 GB! All day waiting to play the game. So xbox one on the shelf collecting dust. I have my 360 fired up,and 5 mins in ,I'm playing, online too!😊

[@Mephianse81]

Your amazon order at the end! I did that with Suikoden 2 on Amazon....$60 from their warehouse. I just went for it and it was flawless!!

[@Callieforniiaa]

Lmao that’s why I bought a hacked RGH 360 last year. I can even download unlisted games like rockband Blitz and many others plus all DLC for free. But I know many people don’t like to pirate or hack. lol but I do

[@galeofdarkNES]

Thanks for the 360 tips. I never knew technu z existed and it’s a From Software game!! I was able to scoop up a minty copy at my local record store for $18!

[@tonyhell234]

I live in a remote area where i get 25mb down and 10 up so downloading a brandnew game thats 120gb on average takes me a day if not 2, but with a xbox 360 any patches that they have are under 1 gb, and are pretty much plug and play. Especially for me I missed out on a bunch of games when i was in the Teens that i wanted to play so it's a mix of fomo and a mix of just wanting to actually play and have a nice collection.

[@Jliving8008]

I have been collecting for the last 5 years. I love the 360. I have all the games I want. Thanks to you Pete before all this stuff went crazy.

[@lonewolffang]

I was able to get a copy of the Japanese import of fatal inertia for under $35. Really sucks that it's gotten this bad. A copy of Wet for the Xbox 360 is outright ridiculous.

[@JohnnyCProduction]

The only thing I hate about Xbox backward compatibility is that you need an internet connection to download the game on to your console. It wish the game could just run natively. Makes me wonder if ever in the future they ever take down the backward compatibility games for download.

[@goatbone]

2:41 No, people are buying copies within Australia. For someone who makes a lot of videos about looking on ebay you should be able to tell what your search results mean.
