    shut down Xbox when the game is still running?


    Are the following actions harmful to console or disc? (it doesn't matter if the game is saved or not)

    1. pressing "Shut Down" button to shut down the console when the disc is running

    2. pressing eject button when the disc is running

    3. shutting down console at "Xbox Home" screen but leaving the disc inside without ejecting.

    :)

    When in the future they decide shut down xbox live for the 360, I suggest before they shut down, download your games to your console just to be safe. You can still play them offline and on system link.

    shut down Xbox when the game is still running?

    Personally, I wouldn't shut down or eject the disc while it's still running. I just have an odd feeling about it, because the laser might do something. You can leave the game inside when shutting down at the Xbox home screen though.

    It's okay if you do a proper shut-down with the disc inside. To properly turn off your Xbox 360 console, press and hold the Xbox Guide button on the controller for three seconds. Next, select to turn off the console.

    You can do all of the above. The Xbox 360 safely shuts everything down when you turn the console off either via the power button or with the controller.

    Xbox one Lost support?

    There's no official word on if/when the One servers will shut down. The 360 servers are still up and running so it'll be a long time before the One servers are shut down.

    There's no word on if/when the 360 servers are going to be shut down. So they can still run for a long time.
