About this page and the Xbox 360 game console
The 
Xbox 360 is a home video game console developed by Microsoft, launched in November 22, 2005. As the successor to the original Xbox, it is the second console in the Xbox series. It competed with Sony's 
PlayStation 3 and Nintendo's 
Wii as part of the seventh generation of video game consoles. This is the best selling console that Microsoft ever made.
Most 
Source engine games made after 2007 (using 
Source 2007 branch or later), have native support for the Xbox 360 game controller, using XInput, which was later disabled and replaced with Steam Input since engine update around 2020-2022, which only applies to most Source 2013 games, Left 4 Dead 2 and later Valve games. As it's competitor, PlayStation 3 are notorious for it's complex processor architecture, Source games on Xbox 360 runs better compared to PlayStation 3, and this may explains why Valve never ported Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 to PlayStation 3, nor outsourcing the L4D & L4D2 port to EA (Electronic Arts) as previously the PS3 version of The Orange Box have some technical and performance issues. However, in 2010 - 2011, Valve supported both game consoles starting with 
Portal 2.
