Free with Gold games too adult, a little more choice...?

Grebo Grebo · Jun 1, 2015

I subscribed to Gold a while ago as a present to my son, but so far nearly all the free games have been 18 Certs - apart from Terraria and F1 (which unless you're an avid fan of F1 and simulation games, it's naff!). For free games I don't expect the most
amazing choice, but at least a better balance of games suitable for younger people, rather than just adult stuff - so far it's been useless and he's been very disappointed! He waits eagerly for the 1st & 16th of the month to come around, just to find another
game that isn't suitable...

Sorry to hear he's missing out. What you should do is post this suggestion to the feedback forums to that the programmers can see it and possibly make changes.

In the meantime your son doesn't have to wait to see what will be available. Near the end of the month Major Nelson posts the upcoming months games on his blog.

Currently you're looking at Just Cause 2 and on the 16th it will be Thief.

Its still a better deal to have this "rental" service as part of the subscription service compared to what you get with Xbox Gold for the same cost.

-

Its more for your money then you get with Xbox LIVE, what we pay to MS for GOLD you get for free with PSN. What you get for subscribing to PSN+ is better then what you get if you subscribe to Xbox GOLD

-

Rental service or free access to those games....PSN+ is a better deal then Xbox LIVE GOLD, this sale next week means nothing, its too little...too late, to be asked to pay more then the standard cost of subscription to buy games when PSN will give you those
games as part of the subscription says it all

I wouldn't say it's rushed but it feels incomplete. Maybe that's why it's a BETA? Hmmmmm. I would expect the full game to be a little more refined. I would be more interested if the worlds were bigger and the creation tool was a little more precise. I hate
MT but the game is free after all. The choice should be to pay for games but not the content in the games if you are not creating anything. A new pricing model might be better.

What i would like to see with the free gamesfor gold is a choice. Maybe two or three games could be made available but can only choose one. Shouldnt be too hard to implement seeing they can use console id for bans
