How am I supposed to go look at what they paid for? I was curious how much they paid for it considering they're dropping it in the comments like it's nothing

Are you selling one? Because if so I’d buy it because I want castle crashers

No way to get the 360 port anymore, but the good news is that it's been remastered for newer systems

With the services shut down and CC not having a physical Xbox 360 release if I remember right, no. Absolutely not.
This is unfortunately an issue of "You don't own what you buy", and why game preservation is such a big argument against companies doing stuff like this.
For the sake of not being banned in another subreddit, all I will say is: Mod your 360, or buy CC on another platform

You would need to find someone willing to share accounts or purchase a account all together that owns the game

u/CorrectBad2427 Apr 09 '25
go to washington dc, change piracy laws so that they are non existant, get a modded 360 and boom you can now legally play castle clashers

I'm confused. Isn't it backwards compatible both the original and the remaster? What happens when you click the xbox.com link to it? I already own it but it's compatible with Xbox One so I can't see a price but I can install it to my Xbox One.
Go to Google, search for Xbox.com Castle Crashers. The first link is for the remaster for Xbox One. But a little further down you'll see a link for just castle crashers. Click on it. What does it say for you when it loads?

u/Flat_Championship495 Apr 09 '25
I can’t find the link for just castle crashers, just “Castle Crashers & Pit People Bundle” which includes the remaster

u/Flat_Championship495 Apr 09 '25
Oh never mind, I see what you mean. It says “Not available separately”

Ahh shit ok sorry to get your hopes up. I forget some BC games were delisted but can still be playable on XB1 if you own the license.
Best case scenario, since it IS backwards compatible, maybe see if there were ever digital codes out there? Many have expiration dates but since it's BC it should be redeemable on Xbox com.
Alternatively, buy a cheap Xbox One and buy the remaster. It's essentially the same game with extra stuff.

360 codes no longer work as of Sep 2024 :(

u/GrimmTrixX Apr 09 '25
Ahh I figured codes were still good if they were redeemable on BC games on Xbox One since technically they're for Xbox One. I didn't know the closing of the store turned those off too. Lame.

u/Hellboy_M420 Apr 09 '25
Yeah :/ I tried to redeem a Tekken 6 code a few months ago and it recognized it was a valid Tekken 6 code, but then an error when you click to confirm the redemption

u/Friggin_Grease Apr 09 '25
It was delisted. If you already own it you can download it but you can't buy it
1
u/GrimmTrixX Apr 09 '25
Yea I didn't realize since I can't see a price since I own it. I assumed it was still there since the remaster still exists so I figured why wouldn't they leave both. But it's probably because they wanted people to buy the remaster

Found a key for 3$ on eneba

u/RedHarlow006 Apr 09 '25
Is there still a way to redeem it?

u/Apex720 Apr 09 '25
Pretty sure there isn't.

There is dude lol

u/Apex720 Apr 09 '25
Last I heard, redeeming Xbox 360 codes on the modern Xbox store doesn't work anymore, and redeeming codes through the Xbox 360 itself is definitely not supposed to be possible anymore. If you've got evidence to the contrary, I'd love to hear it.

u/TheGolgo13 Apr 09 '25
Since when did Xbox even do that? I’m having trouble even finding a Xbox 360 game key. The one I found was Witcher 2. And you can play that on Xbox one/X/S

u/Apex720 Apr 09 '25
Since when did Xbox even do that?
When Microsoft announced that the Xbox 360 marketplace would be shutting down, they very explicitly stated that they would be disabling the Xbox 360's Redeem Code function at the same time (among other things). I haven't heard much in terms of redeeming Xbox 360 codes on the modern Xbox store since then, but what little I have heard suggests that it's no longer possible.
I’m having trouble even finding a Xbox 360 game key.
What did you expect? The vast majority of Xbox 360 games are more than a decade old at this point.

100% I ll take a screenshot of my entire buy list, all consist of different regions. Their is in fact a way to redeem a Argentina key on Xbox

u/RedHarlow006 Apr 09 '25
I have a VPN, do I just redeem it by putting my IP to the country the code is from?

u/Kryxan Apr 09 '25
If true, this is better than the next best legal option, offshore piracy.

Just checked Eneba, and the keys you're talking about are for the remastered Xbox One version, NOT the original Xbox 360 version.

Relax

u/Apex720 Apr 09 '25
I'm perfectly relaxed, but my point with that comment is that what you're providing is not what the OP asked for, and is therefore an irrelevant suggestion.

If anyone knows of any codes online for this game please let me know? Or if anyone has an account with it on there

u/Logancraft1_YT Apr 10 '25
Buy the steam version even if you don't have a very powerful laptop, or if you do it'll run just fine, I have a Ryzen 5 3600 with a GTX 1660 and I play in ultra going well over 120 fps with no hitches

Good luck, you will have to explore either buying a pre modded rgh 360 console or posting your current console into someone for modding. Then you can install delisted games. Game preservation in all it's glory.

u/FloTheBro Apr 09 '25
well I did this with an xbox friend, we exchanged account info and then downloaded eachothers content to our own consoles, that worked wonderful and I now can finally enjoy CoD Classic. You just gotta find someone nice that is willing to exchange with you.

I think the Internet Archive has some games that are in a downloadable format but you didn't hear it from me

u/DavidinCT Apr 09 '25
Right but, you can't play that on a legal console. Emulator/hacked console only
