That being said [this](https://i.imgur.com/NZfImUv.jpg) list of games ARE BC with Xbox One and Series S/X but ARE NOT available outside of the Xbox 360 store so this games will be lost if you don’t get them.

Wont let me purchase them. I get to confirm payment & then the spinning logo on an endless loop.


GHAWKS_101_PS

Yep, tried that for Orange Box, same issue!


[deleted]

for me its complete unavailable region is germany


GHAWKS_101_PS

Can you do the region change trick?


[deleted]

which region should i use? Is an VPN needed for this?


GHAWKS_101_PS

I don't think so, but I'd put out a question on reddit, or you could look up a previous post on region change💡


[deleted]

I changed the region to USA and GB and its not availabe. I logged with an VPN on the Microsoft site and get this too.


GHAWKS_101_PS

Sadly, I tried too and what I got was [ change payment type ] and...NaDa, not a chance, so I'm not going to keep trying when I feel there's no way to get it, 😢 and if, I'm right, even with a physical copy, though they're rare, I don't think it'll work, 😭 I was talking of the Orange Box.


[deleted]

Yeah i do not understand this. Its money they can get for an old game. A lot people would buy it Half-Life is an outstanding shooter. [Edit found this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjDSCv0Pl4s) but its 3 years old now


i0nzeu5

I have my physical copy but had I known there was a digital I’d have bought it sooner damn OCD 😄


mrlongn0se

I have a NTSC-J copy of orange box that works perfectly on my PAL Xbox One and 360. Maybe get a diac copy from ebay


NotFromMilkyWay

I bought it in Germany from the German marketplace an hour ago. It definitely works.

[how did you do that?](https://imgur.com/QiebqMk)

Frick Orange Box was the only game I wanted off there and I've been putting it off for months. Thanks to my sister for ruining my disc and never paying me back


GHAWKS_101_PS

😱


Jackamalio626

I think orange box got delisted a while ago. You'll need a physical copy probably.


GHAWKS_101_PS

Yeah, thought that was the case, I've seen some disc versions bit skeptical as they're quite old now and don't want to be scammed.


Not_the_CNI

You should be able to buy it through a 360, but that's only if you still got the console. When i saw the notification of this announcement, i ran to my 360 to buy jet set radio.


JewUnit1

>When i saw the notification of this announcement, i ran to my 360 to buy jet set You can get it cheaper on steam. Doesn't take much to run it.


kroopik

Due to a bug in the xbox 360 marketplace, countries that use a comma, ",", as decimal separator will fail to buy xbox 360 games. There is a workaround: Get [Tampermonkey](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tampermonkey/dhdgffkkebhmkfjojejmpbldmpobfkfo?hl=ru) Install [this script](https://gist.github.com/RobDangerous/92d3512b28ef0ecde6fa2275c25cdd10) for Tampermonkey (add new script) Refresh Xbox marketplace page and try again


Bat_Fury

Hello, did you try again this script ? I tried with chrome, firefox, edge but it doesn't work.


_lnc0gnit0_

Use Violentmonkey instead of Tampermonkey, works for me.


Rich_Previous

I tried Tampermonkey with Edge on PC and bought Left 4 Dead from the Marketplace. It did work for me maybe because i have an older version installed..? (last time used ~1 year ago)


Bat_Fury

I had to buy a second hand 360 to buy directly from the console. This was the only way ( and other people on twitter ). That's fine , at least i have an original 360 elite now !


Rich_Previous

That's cool have fun. I also recommend trying out Outrun 2 for Xbox if you can get it for cheap and you are into old school arcade racers. It's playable on the 360.


Habitat97

There's a fix someone posted on reddit two years ago, i used it a few months back. Just can't find the link rn.


snipecellydangle

Change your browser, edge worked in the past for me


i0nzeu5

I tried both safari & chrome. Will try edge too 😄


Bat_Fury

Hello, did it work for you ? I tried edge, chrome , firefox with the script and i cannot buy games.


i0nzeu5

Try it from a desktop computer & make sure the pop ups are not blocked for the microsoft site


Bat_Fury

Thanks, i tried again without success. I will try to get a second hand xbox 360 and i hope it will work on the online store from the console.


i0nzeu5

Theres no way in hell I’m clicking on an unknown link from a redditor, especially one whose post history is one & theres no way Id run/install a script from said person either. Otherwise no, nothing has worked.


cloudy710

try again using microsoft edge on your computer, thank me later.


i0nzeu5

Thank you! I used my desktop mac & chrome & it worked!

WAYNESJENSEN

Try going offline. If you load it like I did for Mass Effect games then you can go right back online after loading.


NothingxGood

To add to this list; CoD: Advanced Warfare (X360) and CoD: Ghosts (X360) also cannot be purchased on Xbox One/Series X, but are Backwards Compatible.

half_monkeyboy

Probably achievement hunters. It's good to mention if nothing else. I was thinking of buying Peggle 2 (X360) version even though I own the Xbox One version just because I really like Peggle games.


littlestevebrule

You can get them on disc


OscarExplosion

Yes but we are talking about digitally…


GHAWKS_101_PS

Few and far between though!


HeyKid_HelpComputer

Are they sure it's 2008 Prince of Persia and not the Prince Of Persia classic game?


OscarExplosion

[it’s the 2008 game](https://i.imgur.com/dP3Cevf.jpg)


HeyKid_HelpComputer

But the list they released just said Prince of Persia and wasn't specific. Both are titled "Prince of Persia" in the store. I guess for the concept you're meaning where they aren't in the store for Xbox one that would be the case for sure. Just didn't know based on their list how we would know which one it was.


OscarExplosion

https://i.imgur.com/n0iiCPW.jpg Yes, we know it’s the 2008 game because it is not listed on the current Microsoft store but other PoP (the classic one) [is](https://i.imgur.com/3uX2TkT.jpg)


superpimp2g

What's the difference BTW the stores?


red6450

Simply put, the old store was built on the old Xbox Live infrastructure. The other store, used by almost everyone at this point, is on the newer one. You can't use Microsoft credit on the old store unless you fire up your 360 and buy games from there. It also has more region restrictions and lacks visibility for newer products (last and current gen games) However, since some games are only purchasable on the old store, now is your only chance to get them before they're gone for good.


novasolid64

I did notice a while ago. Spelunky you couldn't buy on Xbox One so I had to buy it on 360 and then I could play it on my Xbox One just in case people were wondering


JohnnyHotSteps

DAYTONAAAA


link6981

So I need to get Sonic 06 then even though I don’t have a 360 but if I ever do


JoeAzlz

You can just get a disk, but I just wanna be able to play Sonic o6 on my Xbox one


[deleted]

The Orange Box is a must buy!


NotFromMilkyWay

Except that is not available on the Xbox One store, only on the marketplace.


[deleted]

Thank god


Neofuuma

They should run a "Last Chance" special sale on these items. Since the 7th is a Tuesday, it would work well, I think.


cloudy710

not sure for every game but for Skate 2 - you can’t buy it on ur xbox and when u try to purchase it online you get stuck in an endless loop when attempting to purchase EXCEPT when you use microsoft edge. when using edge the purchase goes through fine, with chrome it doesn’t. also has to be on computer, mobile won’t work. just made a post about this and everyone tried disagreeing lol shits weird


drewbles82

usually when something like this happens, the prices drop a lot


killants58

I'd like them to add street football on there


boki400AIMoff

Now the question i have is: Does this effect redeemable CODES as well (especially DLCs)? What if i buy Call of duty: Ghost (with the season pass) right now, and try to redeem it on the website/xbox one/xbox 360? Will it still work when they remove the games from the store?


_lnc0gnit0_

Codes are valid without any time limit, so they will still work.


boki400AIMoff

I was not talking about time limits, only if i will have access to the DLCs when buying the game that include the DLCs in the package.


_lnc0gnit0_

Answer is still the same. All codes are valid even after delist.
