I think there is consensus within the community that Xbox 360 has been Microsoft’s best console so farThe previous generation, which marked Microsoft’s debut in this market, left many of us with a good taste in our mouths, and served to demonstrate that those in Redmond had quite a bit to say in this market. Its sales volume was modest, with around 24 million units, but it served to establish the foundations for its successor, the 360, which made Microsoft dream of the possibility of leading the home console market.
Then came the Xbox One, but hey, now is not the time to (again) kick a dead horse.. Suffice it to say, it’s hard not to at least partially link the poor commercial performance of the Xbox Series generation to the mistakes made with the previous generation, despite the fact that Xbox Series X | S offers “raw” performance somewhat superior to that of PlayStation 5. Will Microsoft manage to improve its situation with the promising next generation? We will still have to wait and see, but let’s hope so, as we miss a little more competition between Microsoft and Sony in this regard.
In any case, today the biggest success of the Redmond company in the console market is still called Xbox 360 and, although many years have passed since it stopped being on sale, it still has a considerable number of active users, which explains why Microsoft has kept many of its online services operational. However, as they announced in August of last year, one of them will no longer be available very soon, and that is that The Xbox 360 store will close forever on July 29.
Microsoft already informed its users at that time that all games purchased on the same will continue to be available for download after the store is closed, which is certainly reassuring. And for those who have remained faithful to the console, last May it began to offer great offers to obtain games for it. A movement that has intensified in recent days, with nothing less than 149 Xbox 360 games not compatible with One and Series, with exceptional discounts.
The complete list, which you can consult herecontains everything from absolute unknowns to very memorable titles, including some members of quite notable franchises. And, as for discounts, we can find them in up to 95%as is the case with Dead Island, Metro 2033 and The Evil Within, among others.
