  1. OLD free Xbox Gold games not letting me play them.


    Hey guys I downloaded Outlast , and Super Meat Boy on my Xbox One months ago and have achievements for Outlast but all of a sudden when I go back to play Outlast it asks me if I own this product and tries to get me to pay $20 for the game. Here is more information
    on the issue and please ANYONE who is having or has had this issue please reply/comment down below:

    1. No I did not and do not have any other account on my Xbox.
    2. Outlast and Super Meat Boy are mysteriously the only games not showing up in my Download history
    3. Already contacted support and was told to make a post here seeing if others have had this issue with these titles or previous Xbox Live Gold Games.
    4. I have achievements on Outlast showing I played it (Before you say I used paint to edit anything I used paint to screenshot this and save it so I could send it into an email to the person who helped me on support)

    5. I had Outlast and Super Meat Boy installed and thinking it was an issue today that it was saying I didnt own it I uninstalled it and tried to reinstall it but it would only show up in the store where it prompted me to pay $20.
    6. I previously streamed the game in December but unfortunately the game recordings only stay for 1 month
    7. I did have Xbox Live and renewed it 5 days after playing Outlast
    Please if this issue has happened to you or someone you know or ANYTHING similar to it PLEASE comment and make it aware. If I can get more people to support this issue hopefully Microsoft/ Xbox will investigate this more thoroughly and they can fix it!

    :)

  2. Project cars not working

    Hi, I'm trying to download the free with gold game this month and its not letting me, I'm pretty sure all i did when i downloaded Outlast last month i just pressed the free with gold (i pay monthly via direct debit so i know i have gold). If it helps its
    not letting me play Outlast now at all and i get this error code saying ea access or Xbox live is out of subscription. All on the Xbox webpages it says my gamer-tag has gold membership but go to download the free with gold and it wont let me, not getting any
    error messages on the console and online the webpages it'll only let me buy the game for £23.99 otherwise the tile next to it says "get gold"

    Hey there CanTown Mayor.

    Do you have any other accounts on your Xbox One that may have made the free "purchase" when the games were available? It's possible they were purchased on your Xbox One while it was set as their Home console allowing the account you're on currently to play
    it. The account that made the original "purchase" would need to set your Xbox One console as it's home console again.

  6. Also I don't believe you even read the full extent of the issue as you can see my first point is "

    1. No I did not and do not have any other account on my Xbox."

    Games for Gold -_-

    [quote user="BiOHAZARD 901"]

    Then don't play or download them if their AGE OLD. Your lucky they gave you something for nothing.

    [/quote]They didn't give the games for us "for nothing". This "free" games with GOLD is the attitude that annoys me the most with people talking about this. Gold isn't free and gold is a requirement for the games. How is that "free"? It's just like when
    people say they get "free" games with PSN+. No, you pay for them.

    xbox one games with gold needs to change.

    Xbox Dosent need to follow in the footsteps of Sony. There Not Free games. there just bonuse with gold. Free means if i Dont have gold or Internet i will be ably to play them. I Dont care about New or Old games. a game is a game to me. I will always buy
    the news games out at gamestop. But thats not the point im trying to say. Dont have a program on one Xbox and Switch it on the other one. Xbox 360 Games for Gold program is betters and thats why it needs to be change back. Like I dont care if a game is old
    or not. Because everthing they give us is old to begin with anyway.
