xbox 360 store shut down
At around 02:00pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time/11:00am Pacific Daylight Saving Time, The Xbox 360 Marketplace was shut down.
Right as I was getting out of work today too. What a shame
@@TheN7Spartanwell at least we can always look back and remember the good times we’ve had on it…
It was earlier. More like 10:18am Pacific time for me
@@Bhargleyargle And we can save everything we've ever downloaded and archive it on the internet. It's delisted everywhere so I don't see the problem with preserving content
@@Oni64 Mmm, considering Microsofts headquarters opens from Mondays to Fridays at 10am until 5pm Pacific DayligthSaving Time, I was only off by one timezone.But I tend ot forget that Washington state might be in a timezone further back than Pacific Time...Thanks for the actual time it shut down.
End of an era.
Indeed, my brother😢
T_T Xbox 360🩷
One of the hard things about going through the gamerpics and themes before the end was seeing all the promotional tie-ins and remembering being psyched for them.
Themes and pics for Reese's Peanut Butter Cups Halloween contest, Sierra Mist Cranberry Twist contest, Slim Jim contest,
promotional themes and pics for movies like Inception, Alien vs Predator, Daybreakers, the Robocop remake,
random themes and pics for shows like the anime style Thundercats reboot, Sun Drop soda, Venture Bros.,
etc.
The xbox one era was so 💩 when it came to promotional stuff like that.
Remember when they were pushing the new avatars, so they took away the 360 avatars' prop animations from being seen on profiles?
Remember when promotions used to give you free 360 avatar items? I've still got my "The Wolverine" claws prop and Silver Samurai costume.
The end of a f***ing grand era of gaming. Wish I'd been more invested at the time.
"The end of a f***ing grand era of gaming. Wish I'd been more invested at the time." Man, that really resonates with me. I know exactly how you feel.
Keep in mind that I didn't care too much about the Xbox brand at the time, and while I did get a chance to feel the controller for the original xbox/Xbox Classic (aka Xbox 2001), I actually did get a feel for the xbox controller, but the layout for it was confusing to use, and even up until now the analogue stick placements can feel pretty off. I was more used to the DualShock and Nintendo controllers, as those fit my hands pretty well (I love the Dualsense but most people didn't really like it since it's pretty big. But again, Microsoft in the past made many mistakes and thus, 7th gen was no different from 6th gen so, there's that to consider).
As for PS3, well, seeing the price tag made me stop being a Sony Fan right on the spot, and not to mention no memory card slots built into the console, I passed on it. And I went straight for the Nintendo Wii and DS (and those were pretty worthy investments if you ask me). As for the 360, I was going through elementary and middle school years (3rd grade through 8th grade) when it came to Xbox 360, so I didn't have a lot of games on the Xbox 360/Xbox 2 console compared to the Gamecube & Wii systems of the 2000s.
So while yeah, I may end up missing the old layouts of the 360 in the mid 2000s and very early 2010s, it's been a fun trip going down and seeing it shut down right then and there, heck, even playing it back in the early 2010s and early 2020s. But by the time the 360 store closed down, I already moved on to PC/Steam gaming, including emulation, and never looked back. The 7th generation consoles would be the very last console generation I would play on until moving onto other things like Music, Video, & Photography to name a few....
I mean, it was also around the time I discovered youtube back in 2006, so i was like "Why bother playing video games when you have RUclips right on you PC that you can watch ANYTHING that you like?" so even the internet in 2005/2006 killed any kind of enjoyment for me to go back to consoles. And while I did play some of it some of the time, RUclips just allowed me to wach longplays and walkthroughs of games I didn't own, that I can enjoy watching without being frustrated of playing the game myself. Which, when it comes to puzzle/horror/platform games, not only am I terrible at those, but I just never bother to complete them, hence why I went towards racing, party+mini-game, and sports games since those didn't waste my time much compared to the other ones like Croc 1+2, Silent Hill, and Call of Duty to name a few...So there's that to consider.
This is actually quite a bummer, very sad to see it go. Really wish they could just keep it up. Have grabbed a few things, but so much to be lost...
Hopefully theres plenty of archives.
Rest in peace, you served us well. The end of an age. Perhaps the best.
A third party might bring it back online; you never know

Goodbye My old and dear xbox 360 store💚🕊️ 2005-2024
The xbox marketplace still works just watch my 30 second video from yesterday

After the hearing about the shutdown of the store I rushed to get a 360. So many memories just looking through the store and playing at my friends house staying up late. I loaded up on avatar items, arcade games, and physical discs as well. Now I spend almost all of my gaming time on the 360 hoping to recapture that nostalgia. Rip xboxlive marketplace, you will be missed.
It’s incredible how the 360’s dashboards are somehow better than the current dashboard….

We will never have something as beautiful & intuitive as the blades dashboard.

So many games that are lost forever too 😢
Sadly, stuff like this is why consoles are awful for preservation. I wish there comes the day where I can say, run my physical PS2 games or my digital purchases from the PS3 marketplace on the latest Sony console.
Until such levels of preservation and pro-consumer practices become standardized, I refuse to buy any new consoles.
Mostly XBLA games as you can get a disc for most of 360 games
Not a lot TBH. Lots of the non-backwards compatible games are either available on other platforms like Steam; on disc; or as newer versions on the Xbox One. So not everything is lost forever.
So much DLC too
@@apothos666 and all of games and dlcs has been preserved a long time ago. Glad we have rgh.
Rest in Peace XBL Marketplace. You will forever be a part of my childhood, providing me with lots of Game demos, trailers, and game add ons for my games😢
Your video must be cherished for generations to come. it is now an historical document.
I joined the Xbox family just 2 years ago and I didn’t regret it and now I have a lot of respect for those consoles now it’s sad to see this store sunset hopefully everyone had a blast no matter how long they been here

Salute to one of the best eras in gaming for many of us during our teens / early adulthood. Things like these are not made anymore
Today gaming getting more shit and shit it was a good time then.

48 hours later and this still hurts like hell knowing that we'll see this amazing thing on Xbox again 😭💔

My god that UI is so nostalgic
Simplicity and quality over quantity

Which one?
I'm sadly disappointed. Even though the store shut down, I still cherish those memories forever.😔
RIP Xbox 360
Screw You Microsoft!
F it's been an honor.
Yep... I will never ever forget the Memories of the Xbox 360 Era.
The xbox marketplace still works just watch my 30 second video from yesterday
It's genuinely so sad to see it gone. I've logged onto my 360 and it just feels empty now. So many great memories and games. Let's just be happy that we were around to experience them,
The music and the screenshots/clips from each game makes this so much more emotional. It's like I'm watching the end of an era and almost 2 decades just pass right by. So many memories of some of the most iconic games.

So long Xbox 360 and thanks for not only the memories, not only the gamerpics, not only the themes, not only the arcade games, not only the avatars and not only the games that changed the gaming community....but thanks for all the achievements

The End of an Era & the Golden Era of Gaming 💚

It’s officially gone on the east coast… it’s been a real 19 years enjoying it with you all
"Don't cry because it ended, smile because it happened."
Got my 360 in 2011. What a time in gaming. So many classics on my 360. I turned it back on a few days ago to grab some of these last minute sales.

What happend to our life’s A day ago was just like 7 years ago.
i know right? and somehow everything was a lot more peaceful
@@deblishI agree
Will be sorely missed. ❤💚
The device that shook the throne of the PlayStation.
Didn't shake it hard enough. And now Xbox is on the verge of death sadly.
@@wind2536 enough for me 😎 , And I don't care about now.
I’ve been wondering what each Xbox 360 dashboard’s marketplace looked like… Thank you for making this video and rest in peace, Xbox 360 Marketplace.
Hey Sandwich if you’ve got any themes left, keep showing them. I got quite a bit of themes myself.
Sure! I still have quite a collection to show.
I will take a small break from uploading for now, this was a crazy week. I will continue to upload eventually!
@@SandwichGambino Awesome yeah I’m tired from collecting what little I can collect in my budget or what I’m awake enough to find.

0:42 They could come back with this Dashboard, for me it is the most beautiful, functional and organized, as well as faster.
19 years of history
😢 So many awesome downloads all gone soon
The xbox marketplace still works just watch my 30 second video from yesterday
This is sad for all Xbox retro gamers 😔
Goodbye Xbox 360
the hardest good bye ever, thank you for the memories xbox 360.
Man i miss the themes on xbox 360 + nxe was my favorite dashboard
Golden era
The old dashboards were so alive.
🥲😭💔
I love you Xbox 360 from bottom of my heart.
I missed out the 360 Blades dashboard era. :( But, the NXE makes me want to cry cause thats when I got my 360 in 2009. I hate this era of gaming we're living in so much.
The xbox marketplace still works just watch my 30 second video from yesterday
god this chokes me up... the xbox 360 was one of my first consoles (alongside the ps2) and i have so many fond memories with it... it kinda stings knowing those times are pretty much officially over, and it esp hurts knowing that it was just a short while after xbox killed off one of their best studios (tango gameworks)
This is sad especially with this music
i feel empty now
Xbox 360 rip you will be remembered
So much nostalgia 😢
I had to drive 12 miles to town just to get a controller yesterday, then bought some themes & gamertags. I now wish I did more.
I got a 360 Christmas of 2005 with perfect dark zero (not the best launch title but I still enjoyed it) So many great memories discovering old arcade games like gauntlet time pilot Simpsons/X-Men arcade playing demos before buying games and sometimes spending more time playing an online demo then the actual game (which at that time was a new concept as you used to have to have a magazine subscription to even get access to demos for most games) I met so many friends there some of whom I still keep in contact with to this day.
I hope theres still a community reviving the marketplace or making an alternate store
The one before the tiles will always be my favorite 0:47 I thought that was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen when it first came out. Will never get that feeling again.
This video reminded me of a simpler past.
We made memories boys and girls I'm happy and thankful we did.
It wasn't the end, but the time has come, farwell my dear friend (22-11-2005 to 29/07/2024)
thank you all for the memories on the 360, love yall, take care.
Now , it’s up to getting physical copies , the great thing is that the online servers are still up but the sad thing is no more marketplace, I remember buying a game on the marketplace at 5 without my parents permission, ah what a time...
How will people buy DLC for their Xbox 360 games!?
Blades dashboard it's so awesome.
😭 Xbox 360 I wished I played more… Thank you!
Also, isn’t it amazing that the store was on from Present Bush to Biden? 4 Presidents. 😮
R.I.P 😢
Best memories on X360 we won't forget
I hope microsoft continues with its backward compatibility program with xbox series
Nope they shut it down
@@Spawn3X5at least we have ~600-700 games that work
Here in Brazil, the 360 marketplace closed at 9pm. I still had a last look when i turned on my console around 7pm and by the afternoon i turned it on again to buy Street Fighter x Tekken just to see that it was gone. I'm hurt.
😢
How did you get the stores to work in each dashboard?
You can't. It's just footage that was uploaded on RUclips in the past!
@@SandwichGambinooh! I see it now. I thought it was yours
And now it’s all gone 😢,
Hopefully the store will come back via someone setting up their own server like pretendo
This is awesome, only took them 15 years. Probably the best thing to ever happen. This needs to happen on ALL consoles. STOP. BUYING. DIGITAL. GAMES. YOU. DO. NOT. OWN. THEM!!!!!
Games you bought are still downloadable you still own the games and can play them normally
How is this awesome?
tuff man .. great video
While claiming most of the free stuff I could find (I’m a US resident), all I can think of is the fact the store is shutting down and everything will be gone. I always knew they would remove the store option buy man they really remove a lot of the tabs off the 360 it feels really empty at this point.

I Don't think there is Purpose in Life anymore withOut Xbox 360 Marketplace!💔🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Although i didn’t have Gold, marketplace was a place to go and just look in awe at the games. I never bought games digitally until the PS4 era (8th Gen) but the Mine craft Demo, Doritos Crash Course, and other free games were good enough.
It sucks too, I recently just got a 360 and everything from my favourite games are all shutting down with the online services way too soon or maybe I was too late.
Slowly but Surely everything will be shut down and that’s the inevitable, what only lives and lives on forever is Physical Media.
So I guess 20 or 19 years is the limit for Console services than…
Im not gonna lie but having it go is pretty... Depressing 😢
I bought Sonic 06 on the 27th at like 10pm, i wanted to get Mercury Hg but it's delisted so i couldn't get it, womp womp
Dude I remember when I was 13 back in 2006 and that game being the reason I wanted a 360
i will miss...
I'm just sad right now! Do you have any idea how hurtful this is? 😠🥺

Dear PlayStation fans, y'all had better be quick about buying whatever you need from the PS3 store, because it's only a matter of time at this point.
Is it possible to downgrade to old dashboards on RGH 3?
Still hurts
THERE WAS A GUITAR HERO 3 HALO 3 SONG EXCLUSIVE???
You know what's annoying, when you goto download history or purchase history on the 360 and it doesn't show you everything, feels like it's missing some things, and has no sorting method to make it easy to download multiple items in one go. Imagine that scrolling through over 1000 items this is even DLC on downoload history. Fucked up innit? Someone should sue Microsoft for monetising the end of the xbox360, I'm sure they stealing from us with all these Taxes on top of the games and DLC items. Not to mention not being able to view all your themes properly now it's shutdown.
Microsoft is going to regret this 😡😡😡
Pay your respects guys🫡
Thank you, Xbox 360.
It would be better if the sound effects were retained
Technically went out a couple years ago...cause that latest dashboard design with the stupid tiles is so bad
Goodbye….my generation 💚
big corporations like stealing our nostalgia
>those comfy avatar store vibes
Pure unfiltered Nintendo-like SOVL. Shiet, not even Nintendo itself is like that now. I hate this timeline, bros. ._.
It will be missed
My reaction 😭
Legends don't die 😢❤
let's go complain to microsoft about this on me they will change this horrible dashboard to something more like the old ones
The Xbox 360 did a lot of bad things because it was the first to want money for online games or when the Xbox arrived with the first DLC and microtransactions but at least back then it was still fair and the games were good! Halo 3 and Reach are some milestones in video game history! The only infinite thing about today's games like Halo Infinite is the endless greed and incompetence they all share.
Its like something of me died yesterday.
The xbox marketplace still works just watch my 30 second video from yesterday
how did you get marketplace and ads to work on blades
It's footage from RUclips videos uploaded in the past.
I wish I could access the old Marketplace like with a CFW PS3 but sadly it's impossible (for now)
@@SandwichGambino ah ok, the videos are very high quality
Best console 🎉
La primer interfaz del Xbox 360 fue mi favorita

Lo malo es que la actualización que sacaron se cargaron la pantalla de inicio de Xbox dejando la de la peor manera posible
