Slimpsy1647545505 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Not sure if anyone knew this but apparently Xbox Gold members are now randomly rewarded with a free game every couple of weeks. The current free game is Fable 3. . . for a limited time. I picked it up. I guess it's a new ongoing incentive to be a Gold member (to compete with the perks of Playstation+ I assume, which also offers free games for members) but thought I'd share for those who didn't know who may wanna dust off their system to get some free games! Just go to Games--Browse--Featured...then Free with Gold. GET SOME! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrodh Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Is there a schedule for future games? Good to know we should keep this thread going with updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, just says "check every couple weeks for future titles". I guess the first 2 titles were Assassin's Creed 2 and Halo 3. That would have been a nice score. Definitely something to keep up on!

gillbot Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 http://techcrunch.com/2013/06/10/microsoft-fires-back-at-sony-with-free-game-downloads-for-xbox-live-gold-gamers/ Starting on July 1, XBOX Live Gold members who still have XBOX 360s will get two free game downloads per month to keep — according to Microsoft SVP Yusuf Mehdi, Assassin’s Creed 2 and Halo 3 will be among the first titles to be available for Gold subscribers. Fable III was the only one this month to celebrate the launch of the new console. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motozachl Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 That's a really cool incentive. Been a gold member for many years now and good to see Microsoft giving back to its members. Too bad already played through fable3 though. Took me all of 4 days to max out bout everything. Just one of those series that glued to me I guess...

87GT Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Fable 3 is not a good game. I tried it. I never played the other fable games. I kept saying to myself "man I could be playing skyrim right now". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicranium Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Not an RPG fan so Fable doesn't matter. Will download Assassin's Creed 2 next month. Have AC3 but still haven't played it. Will also get Halo 3. Played it hardcore for a good bit when it came out then my friends and I just kinda determined that is sucked in comparison to Halo CE/Halo 2 one day and dropped it cold turkey. Will be fun to goof off on it again for free. I remember one map specifically where it was pretty simple to get a bunch of people in a warthog and drive everyone off the map for the lulz. Friend even made a new gamertag for it... OffTheCliffWeGo. People still got in the warthog with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
