Xbox 360 What will happen to digital games?

[BlackSolaris]

After something like,10 or 15 years, when you want to replay your favorite arcade games on your old Xbox, how will you do it? Will the online service still be up, and for how long it will keep that way?

That is why i prefer retail copies for games. I may never know when the whole thing will shut down and i am left with no games.

Well I believe the games would be saved onto the hard drive so as long that still work you should be OK. Now if the hard drive goes bad then you won't be able to claim those games again unless Microsoft has some type of internal memory somewhere that can identify all the games you played and grant you access to them with future generation of consoles.
