I had a failed unit..took it apart, remounted the heatsink bracket with #10 vinyl washers..reflowed the solder in an oven and it's been working ever since, about 9 years

Which X360 Hidden Gem in this video is your favorite? Me it's either Syndicate or Mini Ninjas

Also wanted to thank you for these videos it really helps for recommending games to ppl on a budget or looking for something different

I'm on my 4th Xbox 360. You reminded me that I never got round to finishing Spec Ops: The Line so I pulled it out of the pile and got to it. What a great game. Looking forward to part 3 :)

I agree with Syndicate. It's way more fun than one might expect from a reboot game that doesn't even follow the same genre as the previous titles of the series does. Also, my only 360 from the year 2008 is still working. It may have gotten a bit louder during the years, but that's hard to tell since the console has always been very noisy. But it's working nonetheless, I'm happy with it.

Great video! I think now is the best time to catch up on overlooked last gen games. I bought Wet after watching this and i'm loving it so far. The controls are atrocious but I wouldn't call it broken. The style and presentation is the best aspect about the game. Reminds me of the No More Heroes series.

I manage a group on Facebook called Game Clubs where we play a game together each month. Your hidden gem videos give me a lot of ideas of what to vote for next!

Metal Jesus is awesome, he has a good eye for gaming

Thx so much for setting me straight on Spec Ops The Line. I totally ignored it on the title alone, thinking it was just yet another ghost recon or modern warfare...the gameplay is fine, middling fps stuff I suppose, but the morally ambiguous story and character development, wow I was totally blown away by it. Not to mention the awesome soundtrack, featuring Hendrix, Mogwai...just amazing, wish more shooters actually gave you stuff to think about.

Whoa dude! This video is so well made. I loved the moments you picked for the games. They were all mostly new for me and it was so cool to watch.

Thank you for these videos. very helpful. Bought 3 games you recommended (Syndicate, Binary Domain and Spec Ops). Loved all of them. Keep them coming!

I also loved Timeshift & Inversion. I could easily see them being overlooked. Neither were perfect, but with great controls and interesting mechanics, they were both a very gory and fun way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon . . .

You need to play Alan Wake, man. (if you havne't already) But it's totally hidden gem

Thank you for showing me many great games I never played!

Spec Ops The Line and Binary Domain are amazing. The best games are the ones you go into expecting nothing, and then just get blown away.

The "Faith love" raised your stock even higher, MJR! :)

I was hoping you'd include Alice in these videos. Fantastic game, love it to death for the wonderful art style and the balls it shows dealing with taboo issues like psychosis and child abuse.

So awesome that you mentioned Binary Domain! I told you to on facebook and I don't know if that's why but it sure made me happy! Great game. Also you really made me super excited about Wet! It actually looks like alot of fun. I'll definitely pick it up if I come across it in the wild. Take care! //Senkai

Glad you included Binary Domain. One of my favorite game on the 360.

My PS4 was collecting dust cuz I work all the time. so I recently gave it to my little cousin with about 20 games for his birthday. He asked me if I wanted his 360, so I thought "hey just trade it in". Not worth the trade in! all these gems... Bro you slay!! Thanks!!

I'm playing through all of your "Hidden Gems" videos and making a shopping list...thank you. LOL BTW. Your "announcer voice" sound a lot like Diedrich Bader's rendition of Batman. Just an observation...I enjoy it.

Sacred 2. Love you for that! So much fun to play, nice Coop Action.

New to your channel man, really enjoy your video topics and your points of view. Earned a long time subscriber in me.

great games especially alice madness returns

I love his content this guy needs way more subscribers he is great.

Videos like this are the reason I like youtube. Never let the good stuff to be forgotten.

Thanks for part 2! looking forward to the next one =)

i have had 3 broke xbox 360's lolz

I didn't buy a 360 or PS3 at launch, I waited until the first price drops happened. HOWEVER, the RROD on the 360 was what actually scared me into getting a PS3 instead of an Xbox 360. Once they got the failure rate under control, I eventually got a 360. But MOST of the games I bought were for the PS3 because it had become my primary gaming rig and oddly enough, it was BECAUSE of Microsoft and the RROD.

Thank you for these videos. They’re really helping me figure out what I want to go back and play.

Really awesome video Metal Jesus! Thanks a lot for being so entertaining and informative? When are going to get another I Hate U? I may organize one myself for my little brother, with 7 rounds of Kung Fu on the NES and a time trial in Festers Quest

I loved Spec Ops: The Line

The character development and story is also very good in Binary Domain. I'd go so far as to call it the Final Fantasy of TPS's.

LOVE Binary Domain, played it through in one single play, got so hooked instantly. Best 8 hours of shooting in a long time.

4:27 "Then you can start blowin' away dudes!" - MetalJesus

Alice is so underrated.

I love how none of XBOX360 gems are XBOX360 exclusives.

I've been watching your hidden gems videos straight through. It's been...a few hours

I just got my hands on Dead To Rights Retribution and Syndicate on my XB360 and I loved them both. Thx for the video.

MASTER! MASTER!

where's metro last light? great game

Great video, there was seven titles on there I wasn't sure about, but I'm definitely going to get these now!!

Thanks for the video!!! Ill be checking out 3 or 4 of the games you showed us on this video! Thank you for the hidden gems!!! Keep it up with the good work!! PS: Do you have any PS3 hidden gem videos like this?

I've had multiple Xbox 360 consoles fail. Three of the original design and two of the redesign. After the 5th system, I just gave up on the 360 and got a PlayStation 3 to replace it.

I have an original Xbox 360 and it never failed. But then again I probably have only logged about 100 or so hours total on the thing because the console just isn't very interesting to me. I don't know why they designed it the way that they did. They must have some of the most stupid and incompetent engineers working for them. There was no reason to do it the way they did. And they still have the GIGANTIC power supply that was made even bigger when the redesigned "slim" version came out. They must be seriously brain-impaired over there at Microsoft.

Had multiple failures on 360's, but figured it out how to keep them running new. I got mine from some jerkoff on c-list for $50 and it sounded like that airplane effect. Well, after finding out that the original GPU Cooler (one with the extra heatsink in front of the CPU) and changing the CPU one to the original also works. Those described are the ones that both have heatpipes on them. After installed use aluminum foil around the fins to make the air suck in over the GPU / CPU paths and tape it with electrical tape and your golden. It has worked for over 3 years and no game play problems and no speed up on the fans. $50 and $3 each for the heatsinks on ebay and the system is like new. Keep on rocking MetalJesus ... great vids!!!!

Great shirt! Even greater album! :)

PC MASTER RACE KEKEKEKEKEKEK No, but really, I love my Xbox and PS3 and my other consoles.

Nice to see some more 360 hidden gems! Keep up the good work!

Hey man, love your videos. As a huge PlayStation fan, I'm curious to know will you be doing a series of Hidden Gems videos for the PS3? I would like to know what great games that are available for the system that didn't get a lot of attention.

@MetalJesusRocks Im going to say you missed Metal Wolf Chaos,Great list however. I've watched all your hidden gem vids.A charm to watch!

Hey MetalJesus, amazing video. FYI your link box at the beginning of the video says "Part 2", but it takes you to the "Part 1".

Awesome video's man! keep em comming :) And to answer the question, luckily for me I had no problem whatsoever with my xbox.

Syndicate, I played that game too back in 2012 on PC. It was such an amazing game indeed. And also the Binary Domain.

Another hidden gems for the 360. You rock man. Include prey. That game was amazing but overlooked by many

Nice T Shirt Dude!

maximo face out at the end scene a true gamer representing 3d action adventure platformer goodness

I enjoy your videos, my favourite which I really enjoyed was Spec Ops the line. Really surprised with it, so thanks for that. Also I have 2 xbox's the first white hdmi release and my xbox elite I purchased on launch day. On day of purchase I opened them up and re-paste my chips with better quality and more expensive paste. There still going strong and never are they off, so glad I did

Love the hidden gems videos. I always add something to my to buy list. I have had 3 xboxs burn out of me but I got one of internal HD ones and that seems to be going strong.

Totally agree on Binary Domain and Spec Ops The Line, two of my top ten favorite Xbox 360 games.

Alice Madness Returns was fantastic, beautiful to look at with a really dark cool story. Shame nobody talked about it when it came out.

vanquish, dodonpachi, deathsmiles, deadly premonition....so many hidden gems i hope get mentioned in part 3!

MJR, I love your "Hidden Gems" videos, keep em coming......As far as the original build of Xbox 360, I'm on my 8th Xbox 360, and no, I'm not exaggerating.....I currently have the first "mini" re-design, and it works flawlessly. So after a lot of pain, I'm finally completely happy with my Xbox 360. :)

2 of these games I have as well: Spec Ops: The Line and WET the other games I want though :)

I'm really digging your channel, man. Thank you very much for your very fine content. I have owned 5 360s. I got my first two RROD'd fixed over and over by myself by dubious methods (as there was no Microsoft support in my country at the time). Later, with one fried, I went on the search for a hackable board, which I did indeed found, but wasn't successful at hacking it, completely ruining it. By my second attempt I knew better, and maybe took it a bit too far, ending up with a custom transparent water cooled hacked console, that could run virtually anything from my library of classic roms. I was so proud of it. The 360 I currently use is a very sleek Slim I bought already hacked. It has never given me a problem in these 5 years of constant use.

Master Of Puppets is pulling your strings! Reviewing all games and consoles and things! Metal! Jesus!

great video man thanks.. so helpful

I got WET at release and I’ve no regrets, loved that game! Need to revisit it sometime for another playthrough. The first two Alice games are awesome as well, really hoping we get a 3rd game!

@4:40 the box like apparatus that fits into a gun is called a magazine. A 'stripper clip', used in some firearms, is used to load the magazine. Very important difference.

Great video!! And I had two 360s fail on me but my Elite 360 has been serving me well.

Great video! I have had my original Xbox 360 for close to 5 years now and it still works like a champ (knock on wood). It's the Arcade model which has a white plastic disc tray and didn't come with a hard drive. In speaking of hard drives, one of my favorite features of the 360 is the ability to install games from the disc onto the hard drive. I've noticed that games play more smoothly when they are installed and because the games runs off of the memory of the hard drive and not the disc drive, the system is much quieter.

Thanks to you I bought 4 of these today for a tenner. Result!! You rock

This list is awesome, gonna buy them all !

Awesome video of hidden gems, and my xbox is almost 6 years old and still running strong

thanks to these videos I am going back and purchasing some of these games that I think I might like

Binary Domain and The Darkness were the surprises of my 360 gaming. BD actually had a plot that kept me playing and solid mechanics all around. Good choice man :)

Mini Ninjas and WET look awesome and I will definitely pick them up! As for which XBOX model I have, I actually have the newest version which resembles the Xbox One. It's the only version I've had since I was exclusive to the PS3/PSP during this time. Thanks for the awesome videos, man!

Finally Mini Ninjas gets some love. It is such a neat and cool game.

My orginal launch 360 never had any issues, but I ended up selling it in 2008. Sometimes I wonder if it ever Red Ringed on its later owner(s). I picked up a Slim in 2010--great bang for the buck there, it is sleek and fairly quiet.

thanks metal jesus you rock!!! thank you so much from Mexico D.F.

Another Awesome list!! I had a lot of problems with my first xbox360 and have had a lot of problems with xbox live.. which is why I will probably turn my back on the xbox pretty soon.. but man these are some pretty awesome looking games that id love to play!!

Your annotation at around the 16 second mark says Click Here to Watch Hidden Gems Part 2.....should say Part 1. It goes to the correct video though. Love these videos!

Great video. It's funny how my nes, snes, n64, gamecube, wii, genesis, saturn, dreamcast, playstation 1 & 2 and not to mention all my handhelds all work fine till this day but I had to replace my 360 twice and my PS3 (60gb) once. It's like systems were made to last before and now they are made to fail so you have to buy the same system over and over.

Great video. My launch day 360 died after about a year, I sent it in and they sent me back a different one. That one lasted about 3 years and it also got the red ring. I bought a slim and since then have never had an issue.

Bionic Domain is a great sci-fi shooter with an interesting mechanic that requires you to build trust with your teammates. Also, the story has a crazy twist to it. The plot overall keeps you on your toes. It is a mix of Asimov philosophy and '80s sci-fi anime. "Let the good times roll."

1. HELL YES, "WET"! LOVED that game. 2. I've had an Elite model for about 5 years now, and it's never given me any problems. 3. Another hidden gem you might like is "Conan"... very "God of War"-esque, dirt cheap, tons of fun, and is really true to the source material and character. Great videos, man! :-)

I freaking love these lists. So many awesome games that go unnoticed. I'm using these as tools for snagging games on the cheap. Also, as for the question at the end, in 2011 my 360 got the RROD, my PS3 got the yellow light, my Wii got the disc read error, my video card died, and my DSi's R button broke.

I have a X-Box 360 Arcade manufactured in 2009 and bought used from a friend in June 2011...it's a love, only the power supply is "dead" in October 2013. God save our consolles!

Dude you nailed the Spec Ops review, one of the best games of the generation! Also my first 360 died from the RRoD, swapped it for the (newly released) HDMI model and that's been fine for the last 5 or so years! One day I'll get a Star Wars 360...

Thanks man for these Xbox 360 games.xbox 360 still great.

Great series man.

Pretty good nice man... I have a little time to spend gaming and now I have a lot of very good games.. thnx a lot

MJR - funny you asked that at the end, i came close to commenting about it on the part one of this. 360 was the system that xbox lost me. I've gone through 2 of them, and while im missing out on some games- i never wanted to invest in another 360 , since it might not work in 3-4 years. still have my original xbox though, works great. Fun to watch as always-

I've owned 3. Bought one way back about a year after launch, it lasted about 3 years or so before red-ringing, then I bought an X360 Arcade unit and put my HDD onto that, but then when the 360 Slim was announced I pre-ordered that and traded in the 360 Arcade and HDD towards that. And my glossy Slim has been kicking just fine ever since.

Awesome video dude, I had a 360 fail on me when I put the hyper speed cheat into Guitar Hero lol. But yeah Microsoft was cool about it and sent me another one.

Awesome list :) As for my hidden gems, I would always go The Darkness, which is probably my all time favorite underrated game. Plus we have Armored Core games (4, 5, For Anwser), Darksiders, Brutal Legend, Mercenaries 2: World in Flames or Red Faction: Armageddon. The Bourne Conspiracy (which was quite fun action game but really short), Chromehounds (didn't own it myself, but played it a lot with my friend at his house, it was great for online and a couple of beers, the online is dead for years though) or The Club (which was basically a third person shooter made in a time trial point game formula, very average, but really fast, fun and required quite a lot off skill to pull some really high scores). I wonder how many of you played those ones :P Most of the games from your list, I know and heard about. Even completed some. So they aren't all that much hidden to me, but definitely those are gems :P Went through Enslaved: Oddyssey to the West, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reconing, Singularity and Condemned 2 which I both absolutley loved back then. Also went through Binary Domain, which was also fantastic, though, I've played this one on the PC. Still, fantastic games indeed and once again, a great list.

Love that you included Spec Ops : The Line. I got it free on PsPlus and glad I gave it a chance. Great game.

I liked as soon as i saw the t shirt :P Cool Video :)

Wet was alright. My buddy's band played on the soundtrack. Band name is "Creepin' Cadavers' great song for the soundtrack IMHO.
