There are only a few weeks remaining so that you may get some classic games for this Microsoft platform that is now considered to be obsolete.
Prepare yourself to experience feelings of aging and/or clutter, depending on the number of consoles that are currently connected to the television in your game room. Both the Xbox 360 Store and the Xbox 360 Marketplace will be closing their doors at the end of this month. According to Microsoft’s own frequently asked questions page, the company made the announcement about this last year and set the formal termination date for July 29. In case you were unaware, the month of July is inching closer and closer to its conclusion.
This means that the Xbox 360 console will not be able to purchase or download any of the games, downloadable content, or other gaming morsels that were available for Microsoft’s second generation machine. However, if you have any nostalgic titles on your Xbox One or Series X/S system, your purchases of video games and movies will not be affected in any way. You can also continue to view the movies and series that you have purchased on devices that run Windows 10 and Windows 11.
Hurrah! There was a brief moment when I found myself wondering whether or not I would be able to play NBA Jam: On Fire Edition on my Xbox One. The only way for me to release the anger I’ve been feeling throughout the day (and the most recent NBA Finals) without smashing anything is to use Dirk Nowitski, who has an even bigger head, to run up and down the floor.
In the previous year, Microsoft made the initial announcement that it would be closing down the Xbox 360 Store and Marketplace. Despite the fact that it is unconnected, Microsoft has had a difficult year on the Xbox side of things. The most recent announcement made by the firm was that it would be increasing the price of its Game Pass Ultimate game buffet and online live plan from $17 per month to $20 per month, as well as the price of its Game Pass Core plan from $60 to $75 per month. The Game Pass Core package comes with an EA Play membership and also provides access to titles that can be played on personal computers.
In a nutshell, the Xbox 360 is currently being removed from its life support system, and all of us are just waiting for it to be transferred to that enormous and fantastic used game store in the stratosphere. There are only a few weeks left for you to express your sympathies to the family.
