Yeah... no shit. We know there is a "when." Nobody is arguing the 360 servers will be up forever. I am pointing out large userbase, active games, streaming apps and BC might be keeping those servers running longer. 360 servers have also been up longer than OG Xbox servers ever were.

 

Backwards Compatibility however didn't exactly extend the Original Xbox servers. So I don't think that assertion really holds any real weight going by past precedents.

The Xbox 360 should naturally have a longer life line due to the fact it sold relatively well.

The 360 MIGHT HAVE extended the life OG Xbox servers. The console essentially died in 2005, the servers lasted until 2010. But again, OG Xbox had a fraction of the userbase and fewer notable online games.

I don't know how long the 360 servers will last. I'm simply pointing out they're more active, stronger list of online games and BC content is a big part of Gold subscriptions and Gamepass subscriptions. So there is gonna be a lot more people angry if those servers go down.

We are just agreeing with each other other at this point.

And I am simply pointing out they will be closed at some point.
The population of Xbox 360 games are declining daily.

Dunno if it really counts as its a remake of an N64 game, but Conker Live and Reloaded would be high on my list, simply as the most polished version of Rare's last truly good game.
