- The Xbox 360 will be gone as we know it soon... at the end of July 2024, the xbox 360 marketplace will be shutting down forever - you won't be able to buy anything. So in this video, I took some time to explore the marketplace a bit, buy some items and games, and see what's going on with it. Comment down below when you're watching this video!

Anyone here still playing 360? Also let me know the date you're watching this - it'll be interesting to come back to this video in 5+ years.
no
my 360 died a few years ago
Yeah
Me mr. 😊
I still have my 360 and a bunch of games, haven't played it in years tho.
RIP Xbox 360 Marketplace (2005-2024)
You will be missed after nearly 19 years. This shutdown truly marks the end of an era for when the Xbox brand was in its golden years before they went downhill with the Xbox One in 2013.
Why not just buy the games on the Xbox one and series X store.
@@OWmyDragonballz Some of them are not backwards compatible.
@@OWmyDragonballzfor the backwards compatible ones yes this can be done, but not all of the 360 games are supported on One/Series consoles so many aren't there still. I have also ran into at least a few games so far that actually were cheaper on the 360 marketplace than the current Xbox store, while still being the same game playable on all 3-4 generations.
@@GreenLeefMusicOnes that aren’t supported on the series X store can be supported through physical copy though with the series X.
@@Lostcontroller most* 90 percent of my collection is not BC with my Series X only halo and cod lol and like 5 other games
Transitioning from the PS2 to the Xbox 360 was such a surreal experience. Final Fantasy XIII, Bioshock, Red Dead Redemption, Prince of Persia, Halo 3, Far Cry 3, Fallout 3, the Arkham games... It was one banger after another. The brand is gone now, but for a while, gaming on the Xbox was the greatest thing ever. I'm grateful to have been a part of that.
It’s almost criminal that they’re not just giving away themes and avatar clothes. I mean they created all this. It’s going to be going to vaporware soon. Would they rather it go up in the ether rather than someone enjoy it?
They don't care. Its been 20 years almost, its been 2 console generations since the 360 that came out in 2005. They expect/know that the majority have moved onto the Xbone or the Series S/X
@@lutherheggs451 well we are both here so it’s possible to move on and look backward.
Hopefully at some point, they give deep cut sales on good items instead of this trash sale they have right now.
Dogfight 1942 is a great game, very similar to secret weapons over Normandy
@@WilliamSmith-ex9et
It should be stated in the xbox arcade store contract, that if a publisher wants their game on the store, they must approve that Microsoft has the right to price drop all games and DLC, 5 month before the store closes.
@@konggig not talking about that necessarily-for example: like with avatar outfits-those are ms own creation - no reason they can’t give away a halo outfit; they own the ip and made the outfit.
The 'good reason' they didn't just put everything at $5 is because pricing is up to publishers. Hopefully more of them will allow heavy discounting thru the store.
Remember how the 3DS went? The only ones that did anything were Capcom and a few small publishers. I expect it to go the same way for this one.
Ah makes sense (unfortunate though lol)
It should be stated in the xbox arcade store contract, that if a publisher wants their game on the store, they must approve that Microsoft has the right to price drop all games and DLC, atleast 5 month before the store closes.
It's not just the publisher, but alot of the 360 games are backwards compatible on One/Series like Mirrors Edge.
It should be noted that only the 360 Marketplace is shutting down. Games like Mirrors Edge, Dead Space trilogy, etc. will still be purchaseable on One/Series.
Long story short, prioritize games that are only available on 360.
@@leburn98 And according to Microsoft, you can still download those games to a 360 after the shutdown. You just have to purchase them from a newer Xbox or their website.
I still remember the times you had to buy games in the store with microsoft points.
I remember playing the demo for Just Cause 2 all the time when I was younger, as well as grinding Castle Crashers with my brother. I’m actually playing Castle Crashers Remastered right now. It’s crazy that the very thing I used to always use is actually closing now.
I played the just cause 2 demo so much. I didn't show it in the video, but it's actually still downloaded on my 360 lol
I want a 360 soo bad @@jrob0021
Man I remember playing the Just Cause 2 demo a ton before I ended up going to a used video game store and looking for a copy of it. I remember there was a glitch you could do to have unlimited time with that demo, you just had to change the opacity of the hud so the timer wasn't covering your screen the whole time
Time to buy a JTAG console
bought mine then remembered that no xbox exclusive games didnt excite me cause i only played cod
I got a rgh Xbox360 Star Wars r2d2 edition with emulators and mod menus for 150 off of eBay
@@Facts.and.gaming533that’s a great price. Congratulations
Paid £30 for my Jasper 😂 iv owned over 40 consoles though out the years.
14 bucks in a ending market is wild
Agreed! They cant make prices cheaper for one last splurge? So lame
The prices is up to the developers/publishers not the Xbox
@@CalTate yes they're discounting stock of games if you watch regularly the XboxOne storefront (AssassinCreeds now are $3 !)
14 bucks? try 59.99 for some of the call of duty games. I'm pretty sure black ops 3 costs that much
I’ve had my rgh and been downloading games for free since 2013. I’ve been prepared for this moment for over a decade.
Hi
I hate to say it, but at this point, Piracy is Preservation. Good on you for actively participating in the efforts to preserve game history. The 360 holds a special place in my heart and it will be sad to see it go... Buuuttt at the same time the super slow 50mbps wifi speeds and high pricing for digital games were kinda annoying, so for those reasons I'm pretty happy with my RGH3 Slim.
I don't have a such model but one thing is sure, physical collection will be precious
@@techbox9473 yeah I download my games from the internet and transfer them through FTP on Ethernet for years. Just upgraded to a portable 2tb hdd on top of a 500gb oem slim hdd . I’d say the longest a game took to transfer was 25 mins so not that bad. Downloading the games it’s self from websites doesn’t take me longer than 10 mins.
It sucks its shutting down R.I.P Marketplace on Xbox 360
My 360 is in the living room on an 85-inch tv and it looks gorgeous. Makes me regret buying any console after it since it's still fun.
Xbone and series X/S ain't got nothin on the 360.
same, I'm still playing Ridge Racer 6
Had mine since 2007, thanks bro
I have very deep memories with my 360, late night gaming with the boys on mw2, 25 year olds giving you life advice, fake being sick to grind for a nuke on rust, man when times were simpler
The one thing i miss about the 360 era is the Xbox Indies, I've bought so many of those joints for like a dollar or two. 👍🏿👍🏿
I'm still playing on my xbox 360 and kept the Series X in its box and not opened yet.
This explains a lot about how magnificant the 360 era was. Army of two 1 and FIFA 07 were the last games I played.
16/05/24
If this is true.. you kept a 20 year old machine and didn’t open the new one because you like the old one? There’s something actually wrong with you.. I’m not being mean but u might wanna see a doctor.
U need help
Don't update the x wait for an exploit 😅
You need help dude
Well I know which one is better and sales are better. Plus I was looking forward to play 2K14 again.
Mass effect and halo 3 limited edition had themes and profile pictures that are cool
I am one of the biggest fans of the 360 and it's wonderful to see people like you keeping a focus on it! One question I have for the older ones is the disk drives - have you experienced brand new perfect discs being scratched by the games just normally running without the system being moved at all? I have, the older white systems laying flat during operation it does at times.....are there certain drives that do this? Is it an indication of the laser working harder and on it's way out?
this really seems like it doesnt change at all anymore, I was looking through the popular category last year on my 360 outta curiosity and seeing this now, it looks like the exact same games in the same order they were in a year ago.
They do not longer provide attention neither to at least refresh the 360 algorithms
Still playing the 360, got 2 of them, original from around 2007 (with the silver disc tray) and I have just recently bought a 360 E Slim from 2015 to last me another 20 years hopefully. Shame the store is closing, and the price of used games is going up, fast.
I've never owned one myself, as my last console was a Wii, and it still runs great, but i didn't really have any need to get anymore consoles after switching over to pc, but it's nice to see that people hold this generation in such high regard!
I started collecting 360 games 6 months ago.
I was a PC MMO gamer for most of my 20s.
I've been kicking myself for never getting into the 360 earlier.
Great video Jacob!
Had my xbox 360 arcade since late 2005 i was 2 years old when my aunt gave me it and halo 2, i played it every day 18 plus hours a day, i recently bought a 1 tb harddrive 4 years ago, and downloaded nearly 300 games and dlcs
300 games DANG
Man that 360 you have brings back so many memories. I had the same fat white one with the dual band WiFi adapter. Except I had mine since 2007, right before they put hdmi in all models.
I happen to watch this the day after I open up my 360 for some maintenance. Good timing
Honeslty im surpised it lasted this long, in 19 years tech changes rapidly and props to them for keepting it up this long
I used to have the Xbox 360 Arcade Console, and I didn't have the Wifi adapter. I had an Ethernet Cord plugged in (It fried on me 2 years later)
Around November 2010, my dad bought me the Xbox 360 Slim as an early Christmas present, and it still works for me today 😊.
I've been buying themes and DLC for my games (for example: I recently bought all the DLC and theme for BulletWitch)
I'm going to miss the Xbox 360 Marketplace when it's gone 😢.
They shouldn't be closing anything down. How do these companies expect people to buy their digital only games if they shut off the only place to get those games? That's just my opinion on it. I'm not actually an Xbox person either but it still sucks that this has to keep happening
Yea but keeping these stores up cost money, it sucks but makes sense unfortunately i wish they stayed up forever.
@@UltimateInkling and surely it doesn't cost that much to keep these things going
@@fireboltthunder2360well yeah, sony that has less revenue and value than microsoft is still keeping up the ps3 store even though they said it's gonna shutdown 3 years ago it's still active and up
All the digital stuffs you legitimate purchased will be available forever
Gotta read that EULA before signing it, a lot of digital stores say explicitly that they can take away your access to any game whenever they want, with barely any mention of refunds or compensation.
Xbox360 era was just great childhood memories overall.🥺
I am, that ,the PS3 and the PS4, I love my 360, and the marketplace will be sincerely missed.
This is why you need a RGH or JTAG console in 2024.. copy disc data and you can play from the hard drive.
You would think that they would lower the prices because of it somewhat closing
Avatar Marketplace has two sections
● Lifestyle Marketplace
● Games Marketplace (Outfits from games etc)
I had the Xbox 360 Elite and bought the OG Wifi Adapter with 1 antenna
In my MW3 Xbox 360 I have 500GB internal HDD
2TB External HDD
Both Official Xbox branded flashdrives by SanDisk 8GB and 16GB
I’m absolutely pissed that Bad Company 1 & 2 have been delisted. They’re were on GamePass and I had no idea they were gunna be removed.
I can never buy them digitally again now. Absolutely fuming.
Pissed off that I can't buy anything on my end and the store isn't closed yet technically it won't let me.
I remember getting a set of chaos emeralds as a reward from one of the sonic games, good times.
This is from the Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 avatar marketplace store.
It's nice to see people remembering the Xbox Avatar items.
Great reminder! Thanks Jacob!!
Can we play games off of the 2TB flashdrive with the games stored in there?
USB is nice, but unless something changed, being limited to 32GB is not a nice way to waste a large ssd in a USB case. Now if they would allow transferring game installs to any 360 console. They better keep compatibility upgrades available.
If you have The game Test Drive Unlimited 2 on Xbox 360 the DLC is still available until the store closing
What I'd LOVE to see is the expansion content for Forza Horizon 1-3 come back to purchase.
never going to happen all those cars and tracks are licensed and licenses expire
I have the 'Bunny Ears' but found it easier to set-up via Ethernet Cable to Router or Bridged to my PC.
I also have several USB sticks full of stuff, because 60 & 120 Gb drives fill up so quickly 😁
An era has truly ended. It’s depressing to see how far Xbox has fallen ever since the disastrous One.
Disastrous start but then ended up becoming solid like a rock. Like the song.
I remembered getting some themes like GTA IV Theme Pack on the Marketplace when I felt surprised that it was free. Now, the time has come in July. Goodbye, Xbox 360 Marketplace. You will be missed forever. 👋😭
I just picked up a Xbox elite console with 2 limited edition controllers I know the one is dragon age. & a box of 60+ games all complete with manuals etc for $30 all I had to do was change the thermal paste.
60 games and limited edition for just 30 bucks wow
Watching this video just reminded me that I still have a 360 somewhere😂 might have to scoop a few of those soon to be lost forever titles and put it back in storage
The one thing that makes me mad about this, is if they remove a game, they don't remove its store page. I tried to buy n+ on the 360 marketplace and the page was there, but apparently its no longer for sale
I just dusted off my 360 after about 4 years of not playing it and it feels like it's on life support. It's crazy how this console that was once the king of consoles now feels like an outdated dinosaur.
Great videos
But I also had an Xbox 360 so I will be coming back to this video about 5 years i played it on both
Redownloading Trials Fusion and the season pass as I type this. Redownloaded all my Minecraft DLC this morning. I’m currently running the Walmart Blue 500GB 360E. My first 360S from 2009 Red Dot of Deathed last month. I’m not retiring her, I’m just going to order a data transfer cable and transfer the data from it to the 360E before the deadline.
What? A slim S deathringed? ..thought they were reliable.. I got a white S and a blu limited as you, hoping they will last many years
i still want mw3 for my 360, though last 2 disc ones i had didnt read, so might have to risk going digital to replay juggernaut survival on it.
I got an Xbox 360 last year for this very reason. I got it so that I could get the Sonic 06 DLC before it was too late, and I'm glad I did, because even with the game's lack of quality, there was still some unique fun to be had with the DLC. I also grabbed the Fancy Pants Adventures from the XBLA, which was nice because it stands out from the Fancy Pants Flash games. Other than that, I got a few backwards-compatible games.
Installing all your physical games to run faster off a flashdrive is definitely underrated!
HI Jacob, I have many Xbox 360 titles to download, but the company is at the moment i am finding it hard to support a 14 year console, and they can not even get Current Gen Systems Running Correctly , thanks for a great video
Honestly the only other two games I personally would recommend getting are The Legend of Spyro Dawn of the Dragon & A New Beginning since those are the cheapest options to play those two games
After 11+ years of not using my Fat Xbox 360, I've given it a good clean, new thermal paste and switched it on to play the classics I used to play. Good times.
My disc tray won’t open. So I just have to play the digital games I have.
I never experienced this much on the 360 when i was younger because i had terrible if not, no internet back then
I love the Xbox era i love hearing the sweet sound from the intro 😌👌🏻
Imagine if The Completionist (who’s preserved every game from the 3DS & Wii U world) would also preserve everything from the 360 realm such as game exclusives, props and accessories for Avatars, DLC content, themes and gamer pics.
Time for RGH3
What's that?
Hacks
10:00 in sharp. we need a Jacob R theme, let's go 😎
I bought a 360 S a year ago and I do not regret it. I own a Series S and Switch but nothing beats 360 imo.
You can backup the games on your hard drive to a flash drive after the store closes right? Don't wanna spend the money on a big flash drive right now when I'm trying to save for games
I made only 1 backup of my games (150) splitted in two 360s because the game wont be lost anyway.. you'll be able to re-download after july your legit games :)
I just go with a couple of xbox 360, 120gb hardrives^^ cost me 5 bucks each 😀
And later on i just make an copy.
@@micheleraurorhi2021 well I’ve heard people say if your 360 HDD fails you can lose everything on it potentially
@@konggig you backed up everything you have on 2 separate Hdd’s?
I had the bunny ears on my 360, also remember those joints costing $100 bucks.
If you have a hard copy would you still be able to update the game after the servers are down? or would you have to play it with some bugs?
As far as i know you can like forza motorsport 3 and 4 if you buy hard copies with the 2 disc one dlc and one that plays the game you'll be ok other games i dont know
@@juwanhowardhll8019 thanks man was just wondering since I been buying hard copies of 360 games last couple months, I was just hoping once I put them in I'd be able to play them when I come back from vacation
yes on Microsoft site(I suggest everyone to check) its written that the games will be update-able after July
Most of the updates are for multiplayer.
@@Salamander306 oh ok good to know hopefully it won't be anything campaign based updates.
Left 4 dead 2 demo I would constantly play and then delete re-download and play it again until I could afford it. I to also had the white single antenna wifi adapter for my og 360. Man I miss those days.
I’m definitely planning on buying a few more Live Arcade titles before July. Got my 360 right next to the tv as we speak 👍
My Xbox 360 got shut down long time ago, but it went turned an error. I don’t know what was wrong with it. I need help before it reaches by July
If it was a pre-Falcon xbox360 model maybe is dead. only the slims (S and E) proved to be reliable.. and maybe the Jasper ones but never tried :)
@@micheleraurorhi2021 so the only way to finish with the Xbox 360 I had to get S or E OK like I wanna know it will work because I took the Repair Shop and they just checked on the screen and it looks fine but now I can’t do that in my home. Do you think I do you think need a Boost, Wi-Fi or no I saw Amazon. I thought it might helped.
I struggled weeks for xbox360 marketplace to work(some EU web versions seem bugged as hell) but thru console is working:) First games I wanted to get: Deadlight Masquerade AW:AmericanNightmare BC:Rearmeds Braid Dust RushNAttack TheBridge ValiantHearts CostumeQuest and so on..
thank you microsoft for the xbox 360 it truly changed my life thanks.
I payed 1500 Microsoft points for marvel vs Capcom 2 10 + years ago ...and it's not backwards compatible.😢
Had my 360 since 09' either and it never made any problems, even though it once fell many stairs. A legend of a console. Selled it in december 22' to rebuy for 1,36€, the normal Price they promised were like 20 bucks or something like that but unfortunately, according to them, the DVD Drive suddenly began to fail sometimes, so they just gave me that 1,36€...
Trials Fusion was absolutley addictive! 👌😃
Greetings
When does everything close?
That Wi-Fi adapter on the back is worth a lot of money.
I’m curious to know is that will we be still be able to be 360 contents on the Series X/S. Say I buy CoD Black Ops 2, and want all the map pack, will that still be possible?
Just beat A:CM SI dlc yesterday
Are they also shutting down the backwards compatible games or just on the 360 store?
The backwards compatible games should still be good to go on the xbox one and series x/s
@@jrob0021 But, do we know for sure if physical original Xbox games who are backward compatible on the 360 ( but not on the One ) will still be able to run on 360 after the servers shuts down ? They don't need to access some kind of servers for the backward compatibility to work on the 360, do they ? 🤔
@@jrob0021 I correct you: after July closing date 360s owners can buy a 360 game in the XboxOne store and playing it even in a 360 console:)
7:43 I can see wander over yonder
It's an absolute WORK-HORSE! Bought one of the last models new and man, it's been used for an unbelievable amount of hours and it's still going strong!
So when the store closes the physical copies will sky rocket right
I've had mine sinc forever, but I've never once connected it to the internet. I'm not sure I would even be allowed to make a new account.
I still play my 360 from time to time. I’m curious to see if your still able to download digital Xbox 360 titles to an Xbox 360 console. that were bought on something like a series s.
You actually can
yep you can until July2024 but if you live in EU(like me) only thru the dashboard console-store I think
Yep you can, bought quite a few 360 and og Xbox titles on my Xbox one, and can download them on to my 360
@@Salamander306 I know about that too. I do that as well. I’m just curious if we’ll be able to continue to do that after the 360 store closes.
This is like going through a photo album.
One thing i wanna do is Soft Mod my 360, but i get nervous doing that to my 360 since i had it forever, its an Elite 360 so its newer, but im also scared i'll somehow brick it. Also RIP, i actually recently pulled it out to look at my old terraria worlds
So, the console with everything from the shop will cost fortune in near future? What to buy if we still can tho?
no dont worry, in the end "only" 200 approx of the "arcade" games will disappear after July2024 an only a part of them are really worth for one's taste
My favorites are Bloody Good Time, Charlie Murder, Battleblock Theater, Fez, Super Meat Boy, Spelunky, Nights Into Dreams (which has a couple older physical releases, none of which are the HD remaster, and only 1 is English), and Dungeon Defenders. Girl Fight and Monkey Island were okay. Nothing spectacular but fun enough. Otherwise I always wanted to try The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile, The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai, Naughty Bear: Panic in Paradise, Small Arms, Blade Kitten, and Bastion (though I'd prefer a physical release, and PS4 has that). Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons also got a physical release on Xbox One, and used to be a digital only game. So that's awesome it got a physical release to save it from digital obscurity, cuz that's a great game as well.
Part of me wants to grab them, but the other part of me reminds me I've had to re-purchase a few items that got "lost" from my purchase history. And I've had issues with re-downloading items that Xbox removed from the store before. Like Mafia II was a free game with Gold, got it. Then they removed it and when I went to redownload it, it couldn't because the store page didn't exist. Even from my purchase history page, it couldn't find a way to download the game. Later they re-added it and I was able to download it, but this makes me skeptical of how well the re-downloading feature will work if they remove the store, even if Microsoft says it will work. I've experienced different stories.
I bought a bunch of Kinect games, I do hope more Kinect games will get a price cut.
Lol the Wi-Fi adapter in the back! God I’m old
I do have a curious question does this mean that they're shutting down the servers for the the store? And also if you play Xbox one can you still buy some DLCs and anything from the 360 to the Xbox One after after it closes down?
Would imagine you could, because you can still buy games from og Xbox on Xbox one
The xbox 360 store is getting closed down, similiar to how Nintendo did with wii.
Mines from 2011, the original kinect 360. Love it
Can't even update payment info on Xbox just comes up with error code and on the Xbox series x when I try to buy something a green box is above the purchase but I can't click on it
Flash drives aren't very reliable, I'd recommend using a SSD or Hard Drive for your digital games.
So many good memories on the Xbox 360, never will be another gaming experience in this decade or next like the Xbox 360. :(😢
Rip to one of the greatest marketplaces there was. There were some gems on it that I always played.
im tomorrow im gonna buy xbox 360 and only today im knowing that microsoft store gonna close on july 29 that is sad :(
If there is an LG monitor wallpaper, it should have the 2006 honda civic theme
😅😢 Man motivated me to dust off my 360 and pull out all my Old discs from Middle school (2008-2010) Era
Going to relieve my best memories on MW2 / Bo1 / Just Cause, Naruto ❤❤
*Does anyone know if Backwards Compatible Games' Add-Ons will still be able to be purchased?*
I read that Backwards Compatible Games can still be purchased, but I don't know if this applies to the game's add-ons.
Anything that is currently on the Microsoft store will still be able to be purchased. If the DLC is not on it, you'll have to buy it sometime soon.
Can you take the usb key with the downloaded games and use it in another console?
Yes but you need to log in your profile and do a License Transfer on the new console for them to appear and be playable
@@CJG4L interesting
How about a link to the Google Doc?
The nostalgia for the 7th gen hurts bad and good
