There actually a way to get to the Marketplace by going to your games and just try to search something just anything like a game or something and you can actually buy stuff so I hope you see this comment
@@jrob0021 True. And i have the same problem as you too with the infinite loading, And it's super annoying! I can't do anything like you on the dashboard now.
To my knowledge if u get a 360 game form the website that is backwards compatible, it will show up in download history. SO WHY SHUT DOWN THE MARKETPLACE WHEN THE WHOLE BACKEND IS STILL THERE
I think keeping the ability to purchase stuff costs money to maintain and stuff. It was bound to go away at some point. It’s also probably just on an old infrastructure or something. I think the Xbox One and newer stores are more modern and I see those staying for a lot longer. But at least they still have the information for games available to see, instead of literally deleting everything, which would be even worse. At least we get to see the game information, I thought maybe we wouldn’t be able to at all
likely so they can make larger bigger changes to the entire way the marketplace works without having to update the 360's os to make it compatible or keep legacy versions of everything running (i suspect for backwards compat stuff it still uses the same database etc.)
I'm honestly not sure what is worse, the fact that Microsoft made hundreds of digital goods unobtainable or the fact that you can still see them there, but can't purchase them.
@@tsu177 Like a specific commander named after a type of silver says "It is morally acceptable to pirate games that can no longer be bought from Nintendo/Sony/Xbox."

They said they were shutting down the ability to purchase new games, not that the entire XBL service was getting shut down. Some people need to learn to read. The back end is most likely still up so if you buy 360 games on an Xbox One or Series X, it'll show up in your download history on the 360.

If I had to guess, it's a few things. Probably mostly security related... the console is still using 18 year old hardware that wasnt even top of the line at the time.
At least you can still see what used to be on the Nintendo eshop on 3DS and Wii U. Edit: It looks like I need to clarify; You can boot into the eshop. The only thing that is still downloadable on both eshops are updates for certain games. That's it.
It's actually good that the marketplace system is still there. If the homebrew community just creates an alternative DNS style exploit to have downloads redirect to custom servers, you can have users be able to swap to custom servers and download these archived games and DLC from the already existing marketplace.
I was using this exact console, in the same spot, on the same wifi, and with the same dongle just last week and wasn't having this many issues. Was the marketplace slow last week? Oh yeah. But it wasn't hanging up nearly as much as it is now. Like even clicking on the "recent" tab just gives me the infinite spinning wheel pretty often.

It's the same freaking nightmare on the PS3 as well. Neither company thought the download list would get so large that a search or filter function was necessary.
@@Bluesjet1234 They still have the original prices and by the time they removed games like literally all of the fifa games, wwe 2k17, gta 4, and others Nowadays on PS3 it's just better to download game backups or buy the game disk
It would have been nice if they allowed you to pin individual games to the main page so that you don't always have to search for the game you want to play in the games menu.
You can still pin games in the x for details section and they show up in 'my pins' on the home. that worked for me. Sometimes it takes a minute to add the pin.
That what I did on my 360 slim I pinned everything or as much as I could before the shut down cause whenever I try to go to my download history it disconnect me from xbox live and it won't let me sign back in
Honestly, I’d rather this minimalist interface than the giant ads that were on it before. This is better than throwing a bunch of errors or giant blank panels. Letting you pick the dashboard is my top choice but that was never gonna happen.
The dashboard isn't even bad. People just want to complain that Microsoft isn't putting effort into a 20 year old console. It's ridiculous to think that they would
i didnt even know it changed from the classic dashboard that had all the tiles arranged in a row with your character and the green was lighter with a gradient, and the green was pouring into the xbox logo when it turned on. mainly because i only ever used the xbox 360 to play minecraft and minecraft story mode
My theory is that essentially the Xbox Marketplace and the Xbox Store are the same thing and what Microsoft did was push a server side update to remove the marketplace from the dashboard and block all 360s from being able to make new purchases. It’s a lazy way to do it but why put more resources into a 2 generation old console anyways?
Man if this is how digital downloads are like this with the Xbox 360 now, I hope we don't see this happening again with other consoles in the future. :(
Just a heads up @Jacob I seen in your past few videos that you have been dealing with when browsing on the 360. I just wanted to mention the workaround to when browsing the store or games and it starts to infinitely load, just back out with B button then retry until it loads seconds later. Its an annoying process but it fixes it rather than wait for minutes!
There’s a way to get more gamer pics without the store on unmodded console. I lost everything on my Xbox 360 and I was able to retrieve gamer pics without redownloading. Rock Band 2, LEGO Rock Band, and Rock Band 3 (EA disc only) I know so far you can inject DLCs, Exports, RBNs, and etc on unmodded Xbox 360. There can be games (not all the games) read DLC CON file.
Well, there is one way to still buy digital xbox 360 games that i know of. The youtuber Laserfights purchased a digital xbox 360 game that had the little ribbon/title on the cover (signaling that it's for xbox 360) on PC while on microsoft's website. After he purchased it, he went on the xbox 360 download history and there it was. Pretty neat. Anyway, the game he bought was dead rising 2: case west.
If it a backward compatible game your still able to buy it... and it gonna show on the 360 download history cause it a 360 game it just happen to be a backward compatible one
Let’s be honest everyone knew this was coming. The 360 is old. Games haven’t been developed for it in a very long time and there’s no real reason for them to keep the store open. What’s important is you still have access to your digital content. You just can’t buy any new content.
I mean there were still titles being published to 360 until 2019. It hasn't been dead in the water as long as you'd think. 2019 was the last year Microsoft allowed game publications to 360. It's only been 5 years since then.
No we didn’t the most recent version of the 360 was released only about a decade ago. And this decision pisses me off because now, 2 WEEKS AFTER IT SHUT DOWN, I GET A XBOX 360. Xbox please bring it all back 😭
Any game that is backwards compatible on the newer console you can buy on web or newer consoles and then download the game on the 360, I tested that today. Also any free DLC that is backwards compatible can be claimed on 360 or newer consoles.
The old xbox store was rotting anyways. Every day more and more games would be delisted for licensing reasons, and it hardly had any worthwhile content that isnt already available on the new store. I think they were justified here.
Sometimes apps don't work on consoles because of faulty HDD's(hard drives). It happens to me too with UA-cam. A good new hard drive reformatting can sometimes solve it. At worst a new hard drive is best. Also reformatting will erase your saved data or information on the hard drive hardware only.
At least they still have the information for games available to see, instead of literally deleting everything, which would be even worse. We get to see the game information, I thought maybe we wouldn’t be able to at all
They've done exactly what they said they'd do. You'd have called it broken if you COULD find an exploit and still buy games, and you're calling it broken because you CAN'T - make your mind up. Microsoft could have made everything neater and tidier with a proper dashboard update, so that you get a friendly message about the store closing rather than error codes. But you'd have complained about that and told everyone: "Stay offline! Don't download the new update! It takes away the store!" So I don't know how else they could have done it.
In some ways it reminds me of when PS Home was removed; for a while it was possible to access items you'd purchased (for your Avatar) but you couldn't actually access Home. It was then no longer accessible at all afterwards; as the option had been removed entirely. (Back to the 360, what happens with a complete factory reset? Do you get the option to get Avatar items? Does the dashboard/menu system work faster *then*? What happens with a brand new account?).
I’m not worried about the store being gone. What honestly bothers me is with all the content Iv bought over the years, just unplug your internet and see how many things you can run. Absolutely nothing.... unless you own it on disc. Thousands of dollars spent over the years and if your system is offline then all the store bought digital content is useless. Xbox isn’t dead till they cut the internet on it or the servers go down that the 360 runs off of.
What in the world are you talking about? You can play digital 360 games just fine, even in offline mode. Just the same as you can play any Wii, 3DS, or WiiU digital game, even if the servers have shut down for them. Digital license is stored on the console itself. And as long as those install servers are up, you can even redownload those purchases from a new console, and then play them offline there. If the install servers ever DO go down, AND your console breaks, THEN... well, if a person hasn't gotten their money's worth out of their digital library before then, that's really on the player. It's not a waste if you played the games you bought.. ever
@@kryzethx not sure what you are talking about friend. I restored my licenses and disconnect from the internet and none of my games are accessible that Iv purchased digitally over the years.
Isn't the download purchase menu the same as the PS3? I remember when I got my replacement few months ago and had to download everything I've previously bought and the list was also unsorted.
It might be, I'm not sure I've ever tried to re-download things on the ps3. I've played ps3 plenty, but never really personally used it for gaming back in the day because I had a 360. So I have very few ps3 digital purchases
It is the same mess for PS3 and PS Vita you have to scroll through your purchased downloads to find your games the exact same way. And it is even worse because PS3 and PS Vita share the same download list so you see games from both consoles on the same list .
@@lharwest1571 It's PS3, PS Vita AND PSP content all on the same download list. Cross-buy, which is really nice if you own all these Sony systems, made the list really bloated if you have no intention of owning one or both of the other systems.
@@Tempora158 That might be true about Cross-Play stuff, but they should have added at least a filter for which console you want to search for.. For example When they shut down Last of Us Servers on PS3 they gave all DLC's for free which is more than a 100 and now on my PS Vita I have to scroll through all of those to get to my earlier purchases and you can't just scroll.. You have to scroll and wait for it to load then scroll again and then wait for it to load again..
At least the minimal dash is only when you are connected. But I’m not gonna update when they send out another update for the console and make it permanent
im ngl man, half of these things you're complaining about have been the same for nearly 7 years. if you truly cared about any of the stuff you're talking about and it wasn't just a means to milk the xbox's marketplace ending you would've complained about it when microsoft would've felt inclined to actually fix it. it's like pointing at a dead horse. they do not care anymore. it feels like you're overhating over something that doesn't even matter anymore.
9:26 to be fair, Microsoft Movies & TV is the title of the software making the & + "and" not improper since the second "and" includes a second piece of software
I hope they include back the xbox 360 Minecraft later on, so we can download that from the xbox store as well. Since it was another nostalgic game. Even including the xbox 360 demos. 😢
Man, you people just find things to complain about. Yes the store is down and other things are still functional, which is exactly what the Microsoft announcement told you. I know grand conspiracy here. And getting your downloads re-downloaded from your download. History is the way it’s worked for years so apparently you haven’t been using your 360 that much or you would’ve already known that.
Can you change date and time on the 360? What if you change the date back? Would love to see if you could still buy the content since its all still there lol
I don't know if its been mentioned but you can still buy backwards compatible games on xbox one and it shows up in 360 download history. At least it did when I tested it to buy elder scrolls oblivion and it let me download it on 360.
You'll have to buy backwards compatable games or dlc on pc or xbone, but it will still let you download it on 360 after you buy it. I tried it yesterday with some Oblivion DLC. Bought it on xbox pc, then it shows up un download history, or you can download it from the "more options" menu accessable by pressing X instead of A when you are at your game menu
I wonder if we ban together some how and complain to Microsoft, that they may bring it back for at least another year. It worked with PlayStation and they brought it back..... 🤔
It worked with playstation... and then we saw why playstation wanted to jump the gun. The last few years have been met with so many game delistings on the ps3 store for licensing reasons. Granted, Sony cant get away with it as much as microsoft can, because Sony still refuses to think of the words "backwards compatibility"
for playstation it was justified as it was earlier and even very big games like mw2 or bo1 would get their additional content unavailable to obtain in the playstation ecosystem, meanwhile on xbox most of the best sellers and their dlc's have been made available on the current store, while most 360 only content left was cross gen titles and arcade games
I have a love/hate relationship with the new dashboard. I don't like that they gutted the dashboard but at the same time I like the cleaner & more simplistic look to it. I wish they would have taken the social & settings & put them on the same screen with everything else & have everything on one screen. They went through the effort to move games & apps so why not everything else. There was no need to stretch out the tiles. You go into settings & there are 8 tiles on the menu. It would've been more than possible to fit everything on one screen without stretching the disc tile. It's Kind of a missed opportunity as well because they could've made a settings icon with the gears of war gear logo.
Even if I wasn’t a Xbox 360 player, I watched videos on people playing the 360, and I was really happy, especially people playing Minecraft on the 360, and I can confirm. The home screen was a lot more better than this junk.
@Tempora158 yes and I've purchased it. If you've got it downloaded on a 360 never delete it. I've also got modern warfare 4 original and MW2 and they download perfectly fine
I don't think the stretched out image is that bad tho. :D Ofcourse everything is still there. The server with the content on is just turned off. You can try an ethernet cable instead of wifi if you want the loading screens to go faster. Also, scroll through your purchases with RT, not with the joystick. Gets you to the bottom in a couple seconds.
Can't wait for Microsoft to push another change that messes up the Xbox 360 even more. What's next? They find a way to disable physical discs from working? 😂 I can't put it past Microsoft at this point.
Don't give 'em ideas!
They will shut the xbox live down for 360 next

It's always had it.
@@Bluesjet1234 They still have the original prices and by the time they removed games like literally all of the fifa games, wwe 2k17, gta 4, and others
Nowadays on PS3 it's just better to download game backups or buy the game disk
It would have been nice if they allowed you to pin individual games to the main page so that you don't always have to search for the game you want to play in the games menu.
You can still pin games in the x for details section and they show up in 'my pins' on the home. that worked for me. Sometimes it takes a minute to add the pin.
That what I did on my 360 slim I pinned everything or as much as I could before the shut down cause whenever I try to go to my download history it disconnect me from xbox live and it won't let me sign back in
Honestly, I’d rather this minimalist interface than the giant ads that were on it before. This is better than throwing a bunch of errors or giant blank panels.
Letting you pick the dashboard is my top choice but that was never gonna happen.
The dashboard isn't even bad. People just want to complain that Microsoft isn't putting effort into a 20 year old console. It's ridiculous to think that they would
i didnt even know it changed from the classic dashboard that had all the tiles arranged in a row with your character and the green was lighter with a gradient, and the green was pouring into the xbox logo when it turned on. mainly because i only ever used the xbox 360 to play minecraft and minecraft story mode
Man, I regret not buying the Minecraft Dashboard Themes while the store was still up. I know it's old, but I hope they bring it back one day
Hey you can put custom themes on your Xbox 360 with usb stick very easy to do
My theory is that essentially the Xbox Marketplace and the Xbox Store are the same thing and what Microsoft did was push a server side update to remove the marketplace from the dashboard and block all 360s from being able to make new purchases. It’s a lazy way to do it but why put more resources into a 2 generation old console anyways?
Dude I'm ngl I liked the ads on the console dashboard it looked cool.
Man if this is how digital downloads are like this with the Xbox 360 now, I hope we don't see this happening again with other consoles in the future. :(
Sucks the store is gone but im glad I still have all my old 360 games on disc 👍
I'm surprised they kept the store for so long I never actually used the store when it was open
hey jacob, I looked on IGN and they say microsoft doesn’t have plans to let you choose your own dashboard, but if they did then it would be epic.
That download history has been like that since day one
Just a heads up @Jacob I seen in your past few videos that you have been dealing with when browsing on the 360. I just wanted to mention the workaround to when browsing the store or games and it starts to infinitely load, just back out with B button then retry until it loads seconds later. Its an annoying process but it fixes it rather than wait for minutes!
There’s a way to get more gamer pics without the store on unmodded console. I lost everything on my Xbox 360 and I was able to retrieve gamer pics without redownloading. Rock Band 2, LEGO Rock Band, and Rock Band 3 (EA disc only) I know so far you can inject DLCs, Exports, RBNs, and etc on unmodded Xbox 360. There can be games (not all the games) read DLC CON file.
They shouldv'e brought back the blades dashboard since that one didn't rely on ads and the marketplace to look good
Well, there is one way to still buy digital xbox 360 games that i know of. The youtuber Laserfights purchased a digital xbox 360 game that had the little ribbon/title on the cover (signaling that it's for xbox 360) on PC while on microsoft's website. After he purchased it, he went on the xbox 360 download history and there it was. Pretty neat. Anyway, the game he bought was dead rising 2: case west.
@@connorh122yes
If it a backward compatible game your still able to buy it... and it gonna show on the 360 download history cause it a 360 game it just happen to be a backward compatible one
Let’s be honest everyone knew this was coming. The 360 is old. Games haven’t been developed for it in a very long time and there’s no real reason for them to keep the store open. What’s important is you still have access to your digital content. You just can’t buy any new content.
I want to get gears of wars also trying to find a way to play mk9
There's gamepass & discs,genius.
This year was the release of a gamboy advance game sooooo whats old for you 😂😂😂😂?
I mean there were still titles being published to 360 until 2019. It hasn't been dead in the water as long as you'd think. 2019 was the last year Microsoft allowed game publications to 360. It's only been 5 years since then.
No we didn’t the most recent version of the 360 was released only about a decade ago. And this decision pisses me off because now, 2 WEEKS AFTER IT SHUT DOWN, I GET A XBOX 360. Xbox please bring it all back 😭
Any game that is backwards compatible on the newer console you can buy on web or newer consoles and then download the game on the 360, I tested that today. Also any free DLC that is backwards compatible can be claimed on 360 or newer consoles.
"you might be able to find a physical copy"
I think its his Old Xbox 360 Model.
My Model E can still buy, and download DLC for games, probably games too!
Shutting down the store was a MASSIVE fail on Microsofts part.
How?
The old xbox store was rotting anyways. Every day more and more games would be delisted for licensing reasons, and it hardly had any worthwhile content that isnt already available on the new store. I think they were justified here.
Dashboard is so ugly!!! Could’ve made the decision to bring back blades. Come on Microsoft!
Sometimes apps don't work on consoles because of faulty HDD's(hard drives). It happens to me too with UA-cam. A good new hard drive reformatting can sometimes solve it. At worst a new hard drive is best. Also reformatting will erase your saved data or information on the hard drive hardware only.
7:42 -7:56, i was a big fun of yours before this video, now i am your greatest one.
At least they still have the information for games available to see, instead of literally deleting everything, which would be even worse. We get to see the game information, I thought maybe we wouldn’t be able to at all
Really? Aren't some of them delisted?
@@DeejTiuz i’m not sure about those ones, I think those might be unavailable
@@halami2149 rip
They've done exactly what they said they'd do. You'd have called it broken if you COULD find an exploit and still buy games, and you're calling it broken because you CAN'T - make your mind up. Microsoft could have made everything neater and tidier with a proper dashboard update, so that you get a friendly message about the store closing rather than error codes. But you'd have complained about that and told everyone: "Stay offline! Don't download the new update! It takes away the store!" So I don't know how else they could have done it.
In some ways it reminds me of when PS Home was removed; for a while it was possible to access items you'd purchased (for your Avatar) but you couldn't actually access Home. It was then no longer accessible at all afterwards; as the option had been removed entirely. (Back to the 360, what happens with a complete factory reset? Do you get the option to get Avatar items? Does the dashboard/menu system work faster *then*? What happens with a brand new account?).
I still like the old one tho, even tho it has ads, the new one is piss in my opinion
it's so plain
@@jrob0021 yeah
It’s a 20 year old system. You can download the things you bought. You were warned the store was closing a long time out.
This isn’t a bad thing.
Bro first 360s were Made in 2005 and newer versions even later
it just makes no sense why microsoft did it, everything is still here but nah, they disabled payments for xbox 360 and made everything slow asf lmao
I’m not worried about the store being gone. What honestly bothers me is with all the content Iv bought over the years, just unplug your internet and see how many things you can run. Absolutely nothing.... unless you own it on disc. Thousands of dollars spent over the years and if your system is offline then all the store bought digital content is useless. Xbox isn’t dead till they cut the internet on it or the servers go down that the 360 runs off of.
What in the world are you talking about? You can play digital 360 games just fine, even in offline mode. Just the same as you can play any Wii, 3DS, or WiiU digital game, even if the servers have shut down for them. Digital license is stored on the console itself. And as long as those install servers are up, you can even redownload those purchases from a new console, and then play them offline there.
If the install servers ever DO go down, AND your console breaks, THEN... well, if a person hasn't gotten their money's worth out of their digital library before then, that's really on the player. It's not a waste if you played the games you bought.. ever
@@kryzethx not sure what you are talking about friend. I restored my licenses and disconnect from the internet and none of my games are accessible that Iv purchased digitally over the years.
For games like Halo 3 where they have a marketplace button to get dlcs you can get them like that but it's only the free ones.
It would have been great if they'd kept a website running where we could buy 360 games
Isn't the download purchase menu the same as the PS3? I remember when I got my replacement few months ago and had to download everything I've previously bought and the list was also unsorted.
It might be, I'm not sure I've ever tried to re-download things on the ps3. I've played ps3 plenty, but never really personally used it for gaming back in the day because I had a 360. So I have very few ps3 digital purchases
It is the same mess for PS3 and PS Vita you have to scroll through your purchased downloads to find your games the exact same way. And it is even worse because PS3 and PS Vita share the same download list so you see games from both consoles on the same list .
@@lharwest1571 It's PS3, PS Vita AND PSP content all on the same download list. Cross-buy, which is really nice if you own all these Sony systems, made the list really bloated if you have no intention of owning one or both of the other systems.
@@Tempora158 That might be true about Cross-Play stuff, but they should have added at least a filter for which console you want to search for.. For example When they shut down Last of Us Servers on PS3 they gave all DLC's for free which is more than a 100 and now on my PS Vita I have to scroll through all of those to get to my earlier purchases and you can't just scroll.. You have to scroll and wait for it to load then scroll again and then wait for it to load again..
At least the minimal dash is only when you are connected. But I’m not gonna update when they send out another update for the console and make it permanent
im ngl man, half of these things you're complaining about have been the same for nearly 7 years. if you truly cared about any of the stuff you're talking about and it wasn't just a means to milk the xbox's marketplace ending you would've complained about it when microsoft would've felt inclined to actually fix it. it's like pointing at a dead horse. they do not care anymore. it feels like you're overhating over something that doesn't even matter anymore.
9:26 to be fair, Microsoft Movies & TV is the title of the software making the & + "and" not improper since the second "and" includes a second piece of software
This could have been bundled in your last video. You literally made an entire video talking about nothing but the same content as before.
Why did you stop putting out videos they were cool?
I hope they include back the xbox 360 Minecraft later on, so we can download that from the xbox store as well. Since it was another nostalgic game. Even including the xbox 360 demos. 😢
“No Nostalgia for you!!! Mwahahaha!!” -Microsoft
Thank god bro read mine and others comments,
I thought he thought that he couldn’t even remotely being able to access the store
So lame you can't buy games even, when the shop is up, more or less
I mean, that's how purchase history works on every console.
Man, you people just find things to complain about. Yes the store is down and other things are still functional, which is exactly what the Microsoft announcement told you. I know grand conspiracy here. And getting your downloads re-downloaded from your download. History is the way it’s worked for years so apparently you haven’t been using your 360 that much or you would’ve already known that.
Nope, because any normal person would go re download from the store. Seriously who on earth would scroll through their download history for that?? 😂 🤡
Can you change date and time on the 360? What if you change the date back? Would love to see if you could still buy the content since its all still there lol
I found this on the first 2 minutes of the xbox 360 store being down
Jacob R make sure Microsoft doesn't find out this secret or we would be screwed.
360: I didn't hear no bell.
Jacob have you played the orange box before? It's a blast especially TF2
this whole thing is why people went crazy at digital only and internet required, cos when support dies history dies too.
Stop complaining about the dashboard, it's not that bad, you don't know what you have until you lose it
I don't know if its been mentioned but you can still buy backwards compatible games on xbox one and it shows up in 360 download history. At least it did when I tested it to buy elder scrolls oblivion and it let me download it on 360.
You'll have to buy backwards compatable games or dlc on pc or xbone, but it will still let you download it on 360 after you buy it. I tried it yesterday with some Oblivion DLC. Bought it on xbox pc, then it shows up un download history, or you can download it from the "more options" menu accessable by pressing X instead of A when you are at your game menu
I feel like dlcs should still be able to be purchased, Microsoft hate money 🙄
6:56Fallout luv it lol 😅
I wonder if we ban together some how and complain to Microsoft, that they may bring it back for at least another year. It worked with PlayStation and they brought it back..... 🤔
It worked with playstation... and then we saw why playstation wanted to jump the gun. The last few years have been met with so many game delistings on the ps3 store for licensing reasons.
Granted, Sony cant get away with it as much as microsoft can, because Sony still refuses to think of the words "backwards compatibility"
@@xythrr
I know...., but something would be better than nothing and I say that cause I missed out on the last day to buy games cause I had to work. 😭
for playstation it was justified as it was earlier and even very big games like mw2 or bo1 would get their additional content unavailable to obtain in the playstation ecosystem, meanwhile on xbox most of the best sellers and their dlc's have been made available on the current store, while most 360 only content left was cross gen titles and arcade games
I have a love/hate relationship with the new dashboard. I don't like that they gutted the dashboard but at the same time I like the cleaner & more simplistic look to it. I wish they would have taken the social & settings & put them on the same screen with everything else & have everything on one screen.
They went through the effort to move games & apps so why not everything else. There was no need to stretch out the tiles. You go into settings & there are 8 tiles on the menu. It would've been more than possible to fit everything on one screen without stretching the disc tile.
It's Kind of a missed opportunity as well because they could've made a settings icon with the gears of war gear logo.
7:10 why does that fallout 3 have the date of 2023
because its more broken then a book in flames
@@Wii_Galaxy kinda sad tbh
even youtube on the ps3 still works and dosent crash
Even if I wasn’t a Xbox 360 player, I watched videos on people playing the 360, and I was really happy, especially people playing Minecraft on the 360, and I can confirm. The home screen was a lot more better than this junk.
you can download free dlcs for free inside a game
Whats annoying me is Modern Warfare 3 you cannot download again even though youve purchased it
It fails to download from your Download History?
@Tempora158 yes and I've purchased it. If you've got it downloaded on a 360 never delete it. I've also got modern warfare 4 original and MW2 and they download perfectly fine
I moved on to PlayStation for a good reason. And it's that avatars will now be forgotten by new xbox players.
Couldn't beat avatars
@180ballybollock They were why the 360 got better sales than the xbox One. The Xbox one had more things wrong with it at the time.
I don't think the stretched out image is that bad tho. :D Ofcourse everything is still there. The server with the content on is just turned off.
You can try an ethernet cable instead of wifi if you want the loading screens to go faster.
Also, scroll through your purchases with RT, not with the joystick. Gets you to the bottom in a couple seconds.
Only xboxone backwards compatible games work
i miss my 360, i left it in my home country when i moved, someday i'll be back
Everyone says bypass and secret. If it was an unintentional thing then Microsoft would’ve fixed it within the hour.
I actually like the simple dashboard
Doritos Presents UNLOCK XBOX YOU DREAM IT, WE BUILD IT.
How ot looks offline, this is what I expected it to look like.. and not the new dash board
There's a "secret" Bro clickbaiter me, don't make content if it's gonna be like this anymore.
This is why physical media needs to stay. Also I don't really mind the dashboard to me it's seems like it's a lot faster and less bloated.
