It's been sad times with the Xbox 360 store closing its doors recently, but let's not forget the mountain of fantastic backwards compatible titles that are still playable across Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S!
We've found over 20 of them discounted as part of the new Xbox End of Summer Sale, so we thought we'd highlight them down below - you've got over a week to take advantage. A handful of other backwards compatible titles are on sale as well, but they're part of different sales and will expire soon (for example, the Xbox 360 versions of Borderlands).
Don't forget to familiarise yourself with the rest of the Xbox End of Summer Sale 2024 deals too:

I know you only mentioned it to help soothe the emotions of the 360 store closing, but we lost so many games in that closure that it feels a bit like a dash of salt in the wound.
Still tempted on Metal Gear and Silent Hill, but I've heard before the 360 Silent Hill collection is a mess. Anyone have any insight on that?
I'm always about to buy the Silent Hill HD Collection, but then remember all the complaints about it that I have read.
@Banjo- I’m about to pull the trigger, what complaints?
Edit: Oh, wow. One google search pulled up a bunch of stuff. removes game from wishlist Thanks for that!
I wish Konami didn't delist Silent Hill Downpour. It's not the greatest game ever made, but it's still a decent time.
@dskatter Apparently, the PS3 version was updated, but the Xbox 360 version was not, although a few users claim that some of the problems were solved, but I don't know which ones, exactly. Perhaps someone else knows more about this, because the only one I've played is Shattered Memories.
I think that Konami should simply remaster the original titles, instead of outsourcing a remake of a single title, 2, to a questionable developer like Bloober.
Do what Koei Tecmo with Project Zero/Fatal Frame.
Same games as always, they add like 1 every 4+ months to the rotation and call it a day.
@Utena-mobile Excellent!
@Utena-mobile I will.
@Utena-mobile This is EXACTLY what I was hoping to learn, thank you. I knew it wasn't a perfect port but I didn't know it was basically recreated on the fly. This is cool as hell to learn. I might hold off for the inevitable Halloween sale just to see if it does go cheaper.
Thank you again! And if you do want to go indepth feel free, knowing it's kind of a Frankenstein's monster situation makes it even more fascinating.
@Utena-mobile re-adds the HD collection to my list
I feel a bit better and will likely snag it this weekend then!
Now when I’ll have time to PLAY it is debatable…
@dskatter @Elbow If you like the genre, don't hesitate to get the Project Zero/Fatal Frame remasters 😊.
By now I am pretty much over buying back catalogs. I got just about everything I would want from past generations, I think the 360 store closing down was the last time I will really have a go at it.
