MrMaddog Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising: Case Zero are both free this week. Personally I think it's a great way to build up a 360 game library and if I like the game enough I'll buy the DLC's for them (I see what you did there Microsoft...) Plus it's a nice way to justify paying for Gold when I don't get a chance to play online with others. Shame I missed out on Fable 3 though...

Atariboy Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Magic: The Gathering is the September 1st freebie. I won't even bother downloading this. At least there's a bit of an interest there for the earlier releases but this one does absolutely nothing for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 For the record, this is MTG 2013, last years game, not the latest version. I actually find these game pretty decent, if you're a MTG fan anyways. Usually when you buy the games when they first come out, they will give you a free physical card, or cards. Pretty cool. When I bought MTG 2014 for $9.99, they gave me a mini booster pack of cards. Even says Xbox 360 on the pack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slab0meat Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Zero interest, but I got it anyway. Who knows, maybe one day I'll try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 I'll Download MTG2013, I have the first two, and most of their content, I was just thinking the other day of getting 2013, just for the sake of having the latest cards. Of course, if your not a MTG fan, it'll do nothing for you (or a card battle gamer in genearl) but it's a decent enough game if you like them.

cybercylon Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 The latest freebies haven't been my cup of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Today's freebie is Rainbow Six: Vegas Bah, another one I already have. This is a fun game more so if you play co-op. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I think this is the first one I actually already had. Worth grabbing though since I've never played through it and always install my games. So might as well not have to bother with my disc if it's free.

Tickled_Pink Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I haven't got that big a games collection (about 15-20) but so far I've had all the games on offer. Magic: The Gathering was the first one that I didn't have but didn't bother with it. Vegas, on the other hand ... I had Vegas 2 but never played the first one. The entire COD franchise up till now can go lick Vegas 2's balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slab0meat Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 10/1 free game: Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes 10/16 free game: Halo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Nice. I think Clash of Heroes is a nice "puzzle" game. Got hooked on it for a while, need to go back to it someday. I actually think there's DLC for it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Might and Magic Clash of Hero's is one of my favorite games.. I played it on the DS and only recently bought it on XBLive dammit For the record, if you like Puzzle Quest this is kind of along the same lines where they take a game like Columns (whereas Puzzle Quest was Bejeweled) and blend it with RPG/Battle elements. Good fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Yes I agree Might and Magic is a class act. I've played through and beat the game. Need to fire it back up and see if there were any achievements I still needed. Halo 3 is great also, but I'm pretty sure most people that care about Halo have played that to death already. It's like giving someone a free pair of socks. Thanks for the socks, I have 2 dozen pair already. They couldn't find a better,spookier game for October!?

cimerians Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 That would have been cool...free copy of Alan Wake or Resident Evil 6 (which isn't worth spending for but I'll take a free copy). Dead Space, Deadly Premonition (stupidly good?)..... Happy Halloween! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Haunted House and Costume Quest would have been the obvious choices to me. What do I know though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper_Eye Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 The new freebie is "Gears of War". I think most will have played and completed this but it is definitely a quality title to load from the HDD for some quick action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammR25 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I noticed Microsoft is finally having Steamish type sales now. Red Dead Redemption for $7.50 is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercylon Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I noticed Microsoft is finally having Steamish type sales now. Red Dead Redemption for $7.50 is great. They probably want to get what they can out of the 360 library what they can, so I expect to see older games like this on the cheap like this. Not so bad for the 360… the discs can get so damaged. For the PS3, the discs are generally more durable, so if I have to pay a little more for a physical copy in the sale bin, I genially get that.

Atariboy Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) Red Dead Redemption can easily be bought at retail for $10-$15 these days, so it's a good price but not an amazing one. It's odd but I saw someone just the other day say that PS3 discs are more susceptible to being damaged by minor scratches and such. Not sure what reality is, but with horizontally oriented systems and carefully inserting and removing discs and storing them in their cases when not in use, I've had no damage issues over the past 7 years since I become a 360 owner with the 360's DVD discs (And the past five where I've owned both with the PS3's Blu-Ray game discs).

That is probably because we take care of our discs. And I am probably being more anecdotal about this…. generally have had better luck finding a PS3 copy. It could be the 360 version has passed through more hands. Edited December 4, 2013 by cybercylon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I DL'd Gears of War, the first half of the months free live game, I wasn't a fan of it and never bought it, ut it was good for a rent back when it came out, and picking it up free is cool. Maybe I'd get into it more now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
