    Free Games - Where???


    I have an Xbox One. I'm told that "Gold Live" members get a free game twice each month. Right now it appears to be Lara Croft. How does one get these games? I search the Store in my Xbox One but I cannot find the twice per month free games. Can some
    one please enlighten me?

    :)

  3. Free Games Not Free

    I signed up for the free trial for the Xbox Gamepass because I wanted to check it out before I actually bought into it. It gave me an okay sized list of games that said they were free to play with the xbox gamepass but when I would click on them it would
    tell me I had to purchase the game. I got one game to actually install and let me play it, Sea of Thieves, but every other title I tried clicking on kept telling me I could get like 20% of with an Xbox gamepass subscription even though it previously said it
    was free to play with xbox gamepass. Help me to understand how all these free games want me to buy them before I can play them? I'll list the games below that I tried to play that told me I had to buy them first.

    Saints Row: Gat out of hell

    State of Decay: Year One Edition

    Recore

    Mad Max

    Fable 2

    Fable 3

    Free Games - Where???

    As of right now the 2 free games per month for Xbox Live Gold members only applies to the Xbox 360 platform with a promise from Microsoft that this will also carry over to Xbox One owners in the "future". I would imagine that they will have to wait at least
    another 6 months or more until there is a better selection of discountable and downloadable software before they take that step.

    Until then, the game you're speaking of "Lara Croft and The Guardian of Light" is a title for the Xbox 360 and is not available on Xbox One

    Wow. They used that t to sell me the Gold membership and now it's not available. Also they said there would HD movies. But now it appears I have to buy them. In Windows 8 I get Music FREE. On Xbox One I have to buy a membership. Somehow I feel deceived!

    You must read all the information available for an offer and not presume that you will get what you want. Here is the link for the Games with Gold website

    www.xbox.com/.../games-with-gold

    Here's the link for the support page with more info on the program

    support.xbox.com/.../games-with-gold

    As for games on the X1 as stated earlier it will need to wait until they get a better library.

    Microsoft did not deceive you. The only person who deceived you was yourself by not doing the proper research.

    Thanks everyone. I did read what I could find. Actually what I said was already the opinion of others. I know about due diligence! I appreciate the links - really I do. I do like Xbox One. I mainly bought it for the control of ALL entertainment in my
    media room. Xbox One is nice but not perfect. I don't regret buying it. I bought Forza 4 due to the high ratings others gave it. maybe I can eventually play it on Xbox One. If not maybe i'll buy a cheap used Xbox 360. Thanks to all for your input. Please
    see other peoples comments as there are many that have much more negative opinions than I seemed to have conveyed even though I like the Xbox One's technology and I do believe it will evolve and only get better!

    You can technically still get the games for free by buying them on the website. If you ever get a cheap Xbox 360 then you will have a library to play at the least. I am keeping my 360 for the over 120 games I have on it for my kids as they get older.

    There's always negative comments. Even when anything is simply announed there's an overabundance of omplaints for everything and anything. That's just the side effect of the spoiled society we live in.

    For example, when the new Xbox One and PS4 were announced, and the first reveal of some of the advancements were shown, there were atually people who ranted and raved like the biggest crime of all time had occured just because high end holographic gaming....
    which does not even exist yet.... is not implemented in the new generation of consoles.

    That may be true but I don't think there will be much of a debate on where your getting a better value for your 50 bucks as far as free games go.

    I don't count f2p model games as free. Just my opinion.

    That's Warframe, DC Universe, and Blacklight in his list.

    I play the first two and haven't spent a dime so I'm not seeing what's not free. Trophies don't unlock is about only downside.
