I didn't find a thread here regarding this, so I'm posting this here.
The Xbox 360 Marketplace will be closed on July 29th. July 16th was the last round of discounts that Microsoft will be offering so all game prices are final now. I'm assuming DLC will no longer be available after the 29th as well.
I'm having difficulty finding a complete list of games that aren't also available on the Xbox One, but if you go to the marketplace on your Xbox, any game that won't be available on the Xbox One store will not have a +Xbox One under it.
Note: Make sure your payment info is up to date on XBOX.COM, not another MS site. For some reason, updating the info on the console itself wasn't working, but if you update your info on Xbox.com, it will carry over. Xbox.com's store page is trash, so stick to your Xbox when buying games.
The list of discounted games and how much they were discounted in % is here.
It's worth mentioning that while some games might not be available on the 360 after the 29th, they still might be available elsewhere. Most specifically, PS3 and Steam. If they're not discounted on the Xbox 360, it might mean that they're also available somewhere else. Example: Abyss Odyssey is one of the games that won't be carried over to the XBONE, but it's still 15 bucks on the marketplace (not listed on discounted list), and is on Steam for the same price. That said, some games are discounted, but still available elsewhere, like Bulletstorm (just get the PC version).
Games Radar suggests these 47 games will be long gone come the 29th. Which I find odd, because Aegis Wing is in their list, but it's on the Xbox One. It's also one of the games that was made completely free for all. Easy download.
I'm still trying to figure out what I want to lay down my money on. Trying to balance what games I'm interested in picking up specifically on the Xbox in a digital manner. Might consider Legend of Spyro, as it's not cheap physically, but it's 10 bucks on the 360 digially. The Legend of Spyro trilogy is NOT on Steam and unlikely to be as it wasn't as well received as the original trilogy. I've already bought Castlevania: SOTN, as it's probably the most accessable version for me. There are a number of games that are playable on the Xbox One that I'm still going to get before the 29th as I don't have an Xbox One yet.
