I believe they already are, you just need to buy them from the xbox 360 store through the website. I've "bought" a few of the free 360 games like that

Lords of the Fallen is a Dark Souls knockoff that's free with Gold today.

Free gold games:
- The Wolf Among Us right now (Dead Space on x360)
- Starting 4/15, Sunset Overdrive (Saints Row IV on x360)

Is TWAU worth playing? I've never tried any of the Telltale games before.

My ex was super into Telltale games and convinced me to buy The Walking Dead S1 so she could watch me play it. I was expecting to not be super into it but I actually found it surpisingly good. From what I've read TWAU is considered one of Telltale's best so I'd definitely check it out.

I got Tales from the Borderlands in a previous bundle or sale or something and just did not get the appeal. They are often called "adventure games", which to me implies puzzle-solving, but it's really more of an animated interactive fiction thing.

Borderlands is the worst one of that group that I've played anyway. They're all very similar though, casual games that are mostly about the storyline.

Already had wolf on my 360 so that had to be a games with gold b/c I know I didn't buy it. A bit annoying they repeat like that.

Just bought one of these a couple weeks ago, only game I've played so far is Rare Replay, that game is a bit of a grind and it's tough to play kinda ****ty 80's games so I probably won't get to say forza 6 for a bit. (was gonna wait till BF but got a pretty good deal on the ori/rare/gears bundle)

Seeing the 1TB bundle at a pretty nice price point on eBay (today they have holiday bundle with Tomb Raider games for $350), kind of tempting me to pick it up though I don't need it in the least, would mostly get it as a backup with bigger HD for my 360 games and play the Games with Gold, which I've been adding to my account recently. Already have a PS4 as my primary system so this is like a super unnecessary but convenient luxury. Anyone have thoughts on how the price will change when they upgrade the hardware?

I'd expect a 50-75 drop. The 500 gb is already down to 250 for a bundle

Buy a 500gb after the new hardware is priced and get your own hard drive.

backwards compatibility suggestion question:

list of games is here
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/b...-compatibility

Ended up with two separate coupons for $12 and $15.50 on eBay for their price guarantee offer thing. Long story short - don't use it. You have to use the coupons within a month of the auctions ending, and you don't seem able to combine them.

I'm looking for a couple used games on this list to pick up. Thinking maybe fable 2 or 3, dark souls, fallout nv or 3, maybe stick of truth. Kinda depends which of these i can find for around the appropriate price.

thoughts? suggestions?

Fallout nv and 3 are both fantastic

would likely be best to hold off on stick of truth now i think about it, as the new game includes the upgrade next gen version

Follow-up:

Found Fallout 3 for $7, and NV for $7.95. Perfect for splitting my $15.50 coupon, right?

Spoiler:
WRONG

You cannot use partial credit from one of these coupons. So I lost $8.50 off one and $4.05 off another.

Friggin' ebay.

Got both discs. One of them is scratched to ****! Since it seems to download the game to the hard drive, does it even matter if the disc is barely functional? Does it just need to be inserted to work?

Edit

Also, the other game had a big, lone pube in the case. So I'm not sure which is worse.

As long as it reads the discs and can install it to the hard drive you'll be fine. It only uses the disc to start up the game and verify you own it once it's on the HD

What color was the pube?

A lot of times when I a want to start an app again I will press start and "quit" the app. I then select the app again. Seems to work better when the app has to reboot

yeah, minecraft had issues restarting so frequently. I always quit the app when I'm done playing

If you live in Arizona, Washington, or Massachusetts, I highly recommend signing up for the Earn beta. Basically you get 3-7% credit by shopping at certain retailers (some national chains, some local restaurants) that can then be applied to purchases you make at Microsoft retailers or the online store (you get a credit on your statement on the next cycle). I just screwed up and put a purchase from Xbox.com on my credit card and that also notified me it would be using my Earn credits, so basically free. Not sure if this is allowed so mods please let me know but I have a referral code if anyone in those states is interested, PM me and I'll share it rather than putting it in the thread.

Just bought red dead redemption off of Walmart.com for 13 bucks. It's bc on Xbone now. Can't wait to play it. Have never played it and have barely ever seen any footage of the game but have heard nothing but amazing things. Can't wait to play it. I know I'm wayyyyy behind so spare me. Haha
