As all good things inevitably come to an end, so too must the reapers scythe eventually fall on the Xbox 360 online storefronts. Joining some esteemed company alongside the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U e-Stores, there are only a scant few hours left before the services are cut off and the beloved Xbox 360 will become a device for physical media only.
The Xbox 360 era of gaming was an awesome one, with a shockingly vast spread of games that ran the gamut from meaty third person shooters right through to creative indie platformers. If you were part of it, you know what I am talking about.
If you weren’t, but just so happen to have an Xbox 360 console, you’ll be thrilled to know that the extensive library of games for the device are heavily discounted as a last hurrah to grab some killer titles and treasure them forever.
Xbox 360 store closes in less than 12 hours.

All I have to say is thanks for all the memories made over the past 19 years.
Just a shame it's ending like this. pic.twitter.com/dYNOvg4sWm
The actual list of discounted titles is magnificently vast, warranting a multiple page browsing experience if you want to go rummaging around this digital bargain bin – but here a few cool titles that are now priced almost as low as a cup of coffee, and are definitely worth your pocket money:

A whopping 95% off the asking price for some of these games feels close to robbery, given how cheap they become. And the Xbox 360 is no slouch in delivering a fun and presentable gaming experience – the Prototype games alone are still every bit as fun and frenetic as they were back in ye olden days.
Ave atque vale, Xbox 360 digital storefronts. Your offerings were vast and varied, full of treasures and forgotten relics.
