Microsoft will shut down the Xbox 360 Store and the 360 Marketplace, but the console retains all of its other online and multiplayer features. With the Xbox 360 Store closing in July, hundreds of games will soon be delisted. Here is a reminder to grab any games you need before it's too late. Less than three months to go! - We're getting closer and closer to the end of the Xbox 360 store, with the old marketplace shutting its doors.

The Xbox 360 was a great console home to many different games, and a lot of the most challenging ones were published by Microsoft. After an initial false alarm, Microsoft announced last year that it's officially planning to shut down the Xbox 360 digital store in July. While you wait for your cleaning, you can grab a controller and play some Doritos Crash Course. You won't be able to purchase games or redeem old codes from that date. As Microsoft warned back in August of last year, the Xbox 360 store is coming to an end.

It's a sad, sad day for all Xbox fans as the Xbox 360 Store will be officially no longer in just three months' time. Braid, Anniversary Edition, is a remaster of the puzzle platformer popularized during the Xbox 360 Arcade era of indie gaming. As we say goodbye to the Xbox 360 Store, let's take a moment to appreciate the memories and experiences it has brought us over the years.
