Microsoft has revealed on the Japanese version of Inside Xbox that it is planning to announce something in the third week of February, which is next week. Microsoft wouldn't comment on the size or the announcement of what the announcement will be about. Rumors are now spreading about multiple things.
It could be that Microsoft is announcing a new bundle for Japan, or a release date for a future game or maybe even a official price cut. It could also be something way smaller than that, considering Microsoft is celebrating the Xbox's 6th birthday in Japan next week. We will just have to wait and see what Microsoft has in store for us and the Japanese gamers.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Microsoft has slashed the prices of games across the Xbox 360 store in preparation for its July 29th closure.
The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8
Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.
I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price
The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.
The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.
Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.
Dawn of The First Day
-72 Hours Remain-
Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.
Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.
Seriously its pretty much dead in japan
Microsoft's announcement could possibly be that they are officially ceasing XBOX 360 production in Japan. Which is extremely delighting news for Dark Sniper, their console is simply not wanted in the homeland of many great game developers.
$niper
Probably nothing big at all.
for the 360 going to the Japanese Xbox Live Arcade.
Apparently it's the new Hiroshima bundle with Dualshock controllers for added nuclear realism
