Note: these 2002 titles predate the hardware — RAWG lists later ports and re-releases under the original release date.

Xbox 360 is a home video game console released by Microsoft in 2005. There are three hardware variations to the system's body: original, slim and E versions. They primarily differ with internal storage capacity and size as well as malware immunity — the first installments bore an overheat defect. The central controller is Xbox 360 gamepad featuring either wired and wireless options with the latter being powered by AA batteries. The controller is widely regarded as the best one in the seventh generations with the only primary competitor of it was PS3 DualShock 3 with awkward ergonomics. During the existence period of a console, Kinect was released. It is the software which tracks the movements of the players allowing them to synchronize their movements with their avatar's. The notable thing is Kinect was later used in surprising fields other than the games: medicine, sports and science.

Why some games have no rating

RAWG publishes an average score only once a game has collected 6 or more user votes. Below that it returns 0.0 — while still returning the full vote breakdown. So a game nobody has ever rated and a game with five “exceptional” votes arrive looking identical.

Those suppressed scores are recomputed from the breakdown, which recovers 0 of the 1 games here that would otherwise read as unrated. The rest have no votes at all — mostly obscure, regional or unported titles. That is a real absence, not a gap in the fetch: there is nothing to retrieve.

Everything with a vote ranks in one table, because the order is weighted rather than a raw mean: a score is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 (too few ranked games here to take a local one) in proportion to how thin its evidence is, so a two-vote 5.0 settles near the middle instead of on top. Metacritic joins at half that weight where it exists — 1 of these games have one.

Ranked 1 game with at least one vote

Ordered by a weighted score, not the raw mean: each game's own average is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 in proportion to how few votes it rests on, and Metacritic is folded in at half that weight where it exists. A 6-vote 4.67 therefore ranks below a 2,100-vote 4.45 — the raw figure is shown under each score, and sorting by raw score ignores the weighting entirely.

Bars show how the votes split — Exceptional, Recommended, Meh, Skip. A ~ on the raw figure marks a score recomputed from a breakdown RAWG suppresses.
