The support for xbox 360 will stop in 2016 according to this guy -- Xbox Marketing and Strategy Chief Yusuf Mehdi said the Xbox 360 "is going to go for another three years."

What are you all going to do when it does ? Move to the new console ? Stop gaming ?

I would hope by 2016 people won't be playing 360 anymore, seeing as it will be 11 years old. I already have an Xbox One and the only 360 i have is my JTAG which I don't use for much.

I hope they come out with some sort of cod collection, with all the old cods maybe on one server, that would suck if zombies were not around no more(to play online), so I don't think Treyarch will want that to happen to their games, give it a few years, they will have BO1 and II.....

I can accept that. I will be in Law School and probably will be too busy to play hardcore.

I'm surprised you don't use your JTAG for much. I have my one RGH for online use and then my other RGH is loaded with nearly 1TB of games and emulators to play. It is going to take me a long time to run out of things to play. I'll still be playing 360 well-past when there is no longer support for it. I still play my PS2 on occasion.

I think it'll "last" (as in being played by a lot of people) a lot longer than 3 years. Maybe 5-6 years at the max. Games like Black Ops Zombies and Halo 3 will probably be one of those games that people play on System Link for many years to come.

As for Xbox Live 360 being supported, I'm going to assume it'll be around until 2018/19 at the latest.

You'll always have ways to play multiplayer even if XBL is down. You can play on LiNK (modded console) or XLink Kai which requires low ping, but can be played on retails.

If there is no support for it, what that means ? You won't be able to play online on it or something ?

I would hope to see users switching to home-brew hacked systems, with everyone using LiNK as an alternative on Aurora/FSD. Sure, official support may decease and LIVE may shut down, but the scene will and should still be alive - as long as there is a community. :smile:

Well the console will be 12 years old ? I think. So I wouldn't be surprised if they did stop XBL then.

But I think with all the online servers we have for modded consoles, Someone will find a way to use retails online for everyone.
