Users of NeoGAF have confirmed that Game Packs for Game Room, Microsoft’s retro gaming experience, have been pulled from the Xbox 360 and Windows PC stores.

This means approximately 188 titles for arcade, Atari 2600 and Intellivision are no longer available for purchase.

Moreover, Xbox 360 owners have taken to the Xbox.com Support Forums complaining they can’t access titles they’ve already purchased. Some users report that disconnecting the Xbox 360 from the internet fixes the problems, but it’s not working for all. Xbox support reps say a fix is on the way.

Let’s have a moment of silence for retro gaming on the 360 and PC.
