xbox 360 store closing
i just got an email from xbox telling me that the xbox 360 store will shut down on july 29th 2024.

"Starting on July 29, 2024, the Microsoft store on Xbox 360 and on (link to random Microsoft website) will no longer be supporting purchases. this includes games, trials, add-ons, avatar items, apps, gamerpics, game trailers, and videos. it also includes purchases like gamertag changes on Xbox 360, Xbox live gold subscriptions, in-games purchases, and Movies & TV."

we only have 1 year until this happens, this is very sad.

EDIT: you will still be able to play games on 360, you just cant buy anymore.

Your point being? Not a lot of people like it as it will cause electricity bills to go up we aren't kids anymore you know we can't leave something plugged in. We aren't wealthy like the upper class people we just middle class folks living and playing games till we drop.

The amount of electricity being used does not significantly effect your electric bill. This is seriously the weakest argument you've made so far. I don't even turn my PC off anymore, just the monitor.

Walmart online is 3rd party sellers walmart doesn't sell ps3 games or consoles anymore.

Either way, I fail to see how this proves they're not making a profit by selling old games.

Except facts require truth, or at least data to support them. Show us some statistics for all these claims you're making.

Do it your self man I'm not your or anyone's library. You can ask retailers directly why they won't sell it. Go ask Playstation and Xbox why they don't sell it. For the energy bill each person house Is different of what they have plugged into a outlet and that certainly adds up after time. I don't say opinions only facts. I'm unbiased in both. If you don't want to believe that is fine but I am not arguing with you about it anymore as the thread would be locked or something if it continues. I'll just say agree to disagree and call it that. As each person's mind set is different.

I wouldn't say you have to wait, per say, but the PS3's controller won't charge if the console is off. It has not standby mode. You have to plug a cable in to use it if the controller is dead and you want to play.

I didn't even know about that but you're saying Sony thinks (and you agree that) I'm not smart enough to know wheather or not I can afford extra on my electricity bill, and wheather my electricity bill is more valuable then my time? And if I were as dumb as they think I am wouldn't I just keep my PS4 on in order to keep my controllers charged?

You're right. Each person's energy bill is different, so why isn't it up to me as for how much I spend on it and on what it's spent on?

Xbox one is still new and not considered a old console. It takes a few years to be considered old and it also depends on money. It would better if Xbox quits making the same name over and over again and add different names to the consoles because I bet there is someone out there that will say oh 360 store is closing not 360 elite store lol. Bound to happen.

But if your argument for the controller not charging when the console is off is that people need to be forced to save energy for their own financial benefit then I can't do whatever I want with my money even if it's legal, can I?

New??

Xbox one is 10 years old... That is old as hell... :steambored:
Almost as old as the 3DS whose store was closed too late too...

And you have a better xbox nowadays (series x was called or something like this??) so Xbox one is totally pointless... :steambored:

Accounts don't get deleted when Valve drops support for an old OS, so people are not losing games. Your initial claim that people have to keep buying games to access their older bought games is completely false.

If people don't have time for their hobby, it does not matter whether the games sit in a digital account or a box in the attic. If people can't afford their hobby, that's their own issue.

You can dream up all the unnecessary fluff you want, it doesn't change reality.
Okay I did say the wrong thing in the earlier post but there's a difference between not being able to afford a hobby by not being able to buy new stuff for the hobby and not being able to afford a hobby because someone takes your stuff away from you until you buy a different way to do that hobby.
Is there? In both cases one knows about it. Cause yes, people should know that Valve can drop support for an OS and up the requirements. After all, it has been written in the SSA that the requirements for the launcher can change at any time ever since the beginning.

What truly is happening is that the people who never bothered to read the fine print are learning the hard way that they should read it. Or that they should make an actual case about it instead if they don't agree.

The previous console before the new one is always considered new until it stops getting games made for it.

Which Xbox One is still getting games as not everyone likes the series X/S, and since they make alternate versions of the same console like the Xbox One X and Xbox One S, it is still considered new and gets support.

Which is why 360 took forever because they have so many variations of it but the 360 store can come back up after July 2024 at any time if enough people complain and they make money from it, but Xbox is pretty strict when they close stuff down.

However, I don't see them closing the 360 online network because the network is also used for Xbox One and series X and s. They would have to create a new network again, but I don't see them doing that.

The only reason they created a new network last time was because of the security risk the original Xbox had.

However, the current network does have issues with gamertag changes, as you can see people with the gamertag you want, but it says it's not allowed.

The only solution for that is to add numbers and random letters until it is allowed because Microsoft refuses to fix it.

Mw3 2023 is coming to Xbox one.

Ps3 isn't obsolete though as a lot of good games are still only on ps3 and has a lot of players. 360 has a lot of players too. Sometimes you have to give them a push to move on, but 360 online network isn't shutting down so people will still play their games online and can still buy games online as disks or digital but digital is only till July 2024 unless they reopen it.
