Where is the Games For Gold or atleast a $ale for the Xbox One family already

[quote user="Burst Axe"]

@ Paying to get free games that I already shelled out 60$ for at launch, free games on platforms I don't own and free games I don't want to play for free anyway makes the program subjective. GameStops return policy on used games is better than PS+
since I can get my money back when I'm done. That's truly free and not this false guise of free like PS+.

[/quote]

Someone in another thread brought up the Gamestop return policy as a means to play games for free. Their policy is you can return a used game if your not satisfied within 7 days. If you played and finished the game it's obvious it worked and you were satisfied.

For me that's an ethical issues, it's theft. I guess I'm just old fashioned. What's ironic is people who don't want free stuff from MS have no problem taking it from Gamestop.

How to upgrade individual account to family?

VOSSBoys2003,

Unfortunately the Family Plan has been discontinued. I've included a link for the

Family Plan Conversion FAQ explaining the transition. At this time, there is no plan's for families on the Xbox 360 console. With the Xbox One console, a new plan was introduced called Home Gold where only 1 account needs to have gold for the entire family
to enjoy the gold benefits. Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

 

I paid for XBOX Live on parent account but my son can't play...

Unfortunately Microsoft has discontinued the family gold plan There is no way to make your new console a family console. You would need to either purchase an Xbox Live subscription for your son or allow him to play on your account which already has a gold
membership. Just an FYI the family console is something that you can do on the Xbox One which releases on November 22

 

[quote user="Listed mia 510"][quote user="DuFFuL"] Is all I can say is that this is not psn. Please don't compare it to that. One, it will start a fan war and two, they are completely different services. Besides, none of those games are that appealing in
my opinion. [/quote] It's comments like yours that actually start the fanboy wars. It basically is the same service and to say other wise doesn't make any sense. Contrast and Don't Starve are both excellent games ( I have dozens of hours on the PC version
of Don't Starve). I would for once like to see some of the people who defend MS every step of the way at least admit when a competitor is doing something better.....I can promise you MS won't come to your house and take your console away for doing so. Quote
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ • how can one admit the competitor is doing something better when the brand I have been with has already
been doing what the competitor is trying to call innovative and new, lol and calling if a service. MS calls it a promotion "Games for Gold" and you sweep it under the rug, as if they gave away mine sweep, or Asteroids. You are blind about what play station
tells you!

Why is it every time I call you out for inaccuracies in your post that you avoid actually backing up your claims?

List the 30 free games we received last year on Games for Gold as you claimed we received. I still count 15.

 

Listed Mia 510. The way you make it sound is that Microsoft were doing Games for Gold before Sony did their Free games with PS+. Sony gave free games with their subscription before Microsoft. On the PS3 and Vita. I apologise if i mis-understand you quote,
but that is what it sounds like, from the way you have typed it.

-

No one has swept Games for Gold under the rug. There is a difference in the 2 though, In that Games for Gold on the 360, means you own the games, even if you revert to silver. All be it, they tend to be very very old games. And the PS+ offereing tend to
be a lot newer, but you lose them, if you don't subscribe. But again after numerous conversations with member s here, No one even thinks about having an X1 without a membership.

-

The discussion here is that, Essentially the OP wants to know when Games for Gold will be arriving on the X1, As it was slated for 2014. And the MastaSlice brought the PS4 into it, by saying that the PS+ subscription is giving you free games on their new
console straight away. new games, Paid for games.

-

What some people cannot admit, is that Sony, have really given a lot of people a lot of top grade games to play with their subscription over the past couple of years. And some people would like to see it happen on Microsoft's side.

-

As to whether Microsoft will offer the same quality of games as Sony is a different matter, and whether you like them is also down to opinion.

 

Haha you resort too grammar correction because you have nothing. FYI that was simply my smart phone trying to be smarter than it is while I furiously text away at your worthless arguments.

So let me state this again you sloth, xbox as a brand has released over 30 games under the games for gold promo which started January 13th 2013 and is set to but I assume will not end January 31st 2014.

Under this promotion any one gold member is too receive 2 free games per month. One on the 1st and one on the 16th

This is 24 games sir far and that does not include so many gems you can find in the market place free. Happy wars, crash course, harms way, game room, aegis wing. Plus many more!

• yea that's right know your "FACTS"

 

Oh and just in case you want to argue that:

I'm looking at the list, it's 15 games, even your dates are wrong.

Promotion started June 10 with Fable 3

Google is your friend......

 

slow deep breaths people, Randver is correct, Games with Gold wasn't announced until E3 and started shortly afterward with Fable 3.

 

Oh oh well I was wrong Ps is so cool man they let you borrow 5-15 games. Sorry I can buy my own and don't give two ( )s

 

Go to your playstation forums and stop ruining mine!!!

I'm am so close to creating a ps account and making it my duty too leave that place un intelligible as you ps members have done here! You turned away long time users and make it no fun to be here. I am now also on a mission to report any little thing you
do that is against C.o.C or T.o.S

Feel free to do the same!

[/quote]Seriously people. Take this advice. You will make yourselves much happier. Debates are useful things,
especially when people have differing opinions, but facts matter, as does attitude. Im not sure why so many xbox people cant stand the sound of the word Sony, but it shouldnt cause you any harm. Be secure in your choices, and then respond with logic
& reason. Good debate is helpful, bad debate (or trying to shut down debate) serves no one.

 

Because I do not come here to talk about sony. This place has nothing to do with sony!

•these people are turning every thread to ps4 vs xbox and I believe it is under an act of malice! Breaking the rule I posted above.

Preventing me from finding anything of value to read about!!!!

 

While I admit I would like to have gold for free games on the X1, I think, and again this is me, but I think MS is waiting until there are a few more games on the market before launching this. I could be wrong in this assumption however.

.

Also if PSN+ still attaches their subscription to all games you get for "free" from them (as in when you sub stops your games stop working. And I'm not not talking about just multiplayer) then what they are doing and what MS is doing is entirely different.
Saying that you have free games on PSN+ is like saying you have 100k movies when in fact you have a netflix subscription. The games from games with gold, you get to keep and have forever even if you let your xbl gold expire. You may not be able to play
the multiplayer portion of the game (assuming it has multiplayer) due to reverting to silver, but you could still play the game, and you actually OWN it.

 

In the logic that everyone here uses yes it is!

I pay my sub and this forum is here for "me" to use, making it "my" forum of use.
