Question about the free games for Gold members.

Hi,

Are the free games for Gold members playable after the paid membership expires? Or is a Gold membership required in order to keep playing the free games? I own both PS4/X1. I currently have a 12-month Gold membership while I only have the free limited one
month courtesy PSN membership that came with the PS4. Sony's used of the term "FREE GAMES" is a misnomer to me, because once you discontinue your paid PSN membership the free games that you have downloaded will not be playable anymore. Is this the case with
the free games acquired through XBox Live Gold? Thanks!

:)

 

'You have no valid payment options on file.'

For games for gold there is no charge

therefore the balance isnt the issue

games for gold are free for gold members the previous post already answered your question

 

Do you need to be a gold member for a certain amount of time to redeem free games?

I found this, I think it answers your question: Is this only for new members?

Games with Gold is available to all Xbox Live Gold members. To download free games you just need to be an Xbox Live Gold member at the time of redemption of any Games with Gold offering.

 

Yes, Once you get the game, it's yours regardless of membership status. GOOD LUCK!!!

 

My question is about the free games given to gold members twice a month. I noticed the games are always for Teen or Mature audiences. How do I receive games only for EVERYONE. My kids are still young, can I choose the age I want? or those free games are
only for mature audiences.

 

There is only one game being given out at a time so the rating you see is the rating you're getting no matter the age. There isn't a separate game being given away that's rated E for everyone.

 

When you download the free game it is yours to keep even if your account reverts to a silver membership. Only two titles that Microsoft chooses are free to download each month.
