Xbox Live Gold Free Games always have problems downloading

Hi,

Gold X360 backward compatible games will always show you a Buy This Game.

But, that's no problem, click on Buy This Game and you will see Free if your Gold Subscription is valid. You will also need a valid payment associated to your account.

Excerpt from the FAQ

"When I try to download a game from Xbox.com I get a message that says "You have no valid payment options on file." Will I be charged for the free Games with Gold?

You won’t be charged for the Games with Gold download. The Xbox.com Store requires a valid payment option to download Xbox 360 games. However, no charges will be made since Games with Gold is free to Xbox Live Gold members."

Hope this help

Cheers

Yes i have xbox live gold... I can play the games that i downloaded for free... But the 2 games that i have on cd i cannot play... When i bought my xbox one it cames with 14 days of free xbox live and i played those 2 games perfectly, then i bought xbox
live gold and i have this problem since

No. You can download the game and cancel the installation. Then you will have your game in ready to install always. The thing is that if you do not have xbox live gold, you cant play them, just like in playstation.

There are offers with xbox live gold every week, discounts. Thats why they say that you make sure to check that out.

And the Xbox One games that are free with gold can be downloaded during an entire month, while the xbox 360 only the half of a month.

Greetings.

No problem, here's your link, enjoy ;-)

"If I redeem a promotional Xbox Live Gold token, will I be able to download the free games?

No, you would not be eligible. You must have a current Xbox Live Gold membership or trial that requires a credit card."

You pay for your xbox live gold subscription in order to access multiplayer features & xbox live etc,thats what a gold sub has always been.

Now though there is an added bonus that while you have an active gold subscription you get to download 4 games per month,you are not charged for those game so they are free.

You are paying for a xbox live gold sub,not the games that come with games (garbage) with gold,they aren't part of having a gold sub,they are just a bonus to having one.
