Jesus, looks like it really is Magic 2013...

I know everyone is going to hate but hey you should try it because Magic is actually a really great game!

The most popular card game in the US. Granted that isn't saying much nowadays.

It actually has more people playing it now than it ever has in the past. A lot of that is thanks to these digital games which are great introductions to the game.
 
R6V is one of the best games this gen. My wife and I still play it from time to time. T-Hunt realistic high on library is so much fun. Everyone needs to check that game out.

Magic 2013? Meh. I was hoping for Halo 3, since it was released 6 years ago and all.

Rainbow Six Vegas is good, though. I would have preferred Halo 3, though.
 
Ugh they would have to pay me to play that game. Guess I'll continue play DR2 and Halo 4 until the 15th.

I'm in the same camp (bolded). Major Nelson always announce the games on the last day of the month so we should see a post about Magic (and whatever the other game is) tomorrow.

EDIT: Missed the R6V announcement.
 
R6V was a hell of a game. Seeing this news just makes the fact that we haven't gotten a new one that much more upsetting.

I have complained about it so much but I really think Ubisoft just doesnt give a fuck about their fans. The fact that they couldnt just say that it is still in development is so fucked up.

Well, a lot of Ubi games have terrible development processes. They probably realised at some point it wasn't very good and they wanted to scrap it and start again. They did sort of hint it, but perhaps they're still trying to figure it out and don't want to say anything until they're ready to show something off.
 
I wanna try Magic, I played 2014 and enjoyed it.

Shame my XBL ran out before I could get Dr2. It really sucks DR2 is still 20 fucking dollars.

Holy fuck, if Vegas 1 is actually free, I might actually play that game again.

edit: FUCK YEAH.

Man I played so much Vegas 1. It's going to take some getting used to again, but I'm down.

Man the R6P announcement trailer they showed looked amazing. For me it was the best trailer for any game ever. I really wish they would just show a log and say a new R6 game is in development, they dont have to show any footage or anything. I just hate wondering if they have totally moved on from the franchise or not.

As Sartre noted in his contemplation on Hell in No Exit, the true horror is other members.
Hey I'll give 'em a try. Freebies. Never played either of 'em.

The games they have been offering have been pretty disappointing

Rainbow Six Vegas was amazing though

Calypso Casino attack and defend all day

crap, I'll download it, but doubt I'll play.
Same here. Never hurts to ad a free game to your collection.

Hope that the next game is R6V1, the amount of hours I put into that game O_O. Days on end just playing Calypse Casino attack and defend. One of the best, if not the best, mutliplayer experience I've had.

I already own R6V so that's a bummer.

I love magic and only bought the original set and the first dlc so I'll definitely be downloading the 2013 set. Other than Crackdown, which I downloaded, this is the first thing I'll actually be playing through this program.

This might be the first free game I don't even bother to download. FFS, MS.
This. Never played or had any interest in Magic The Gathering so I think I'll pass on it but would be willing to try it. Already have Rainbow Six: Vegas; it was one of the first games I got when I got a 360; it came with all the DLC. It's good especially because of the 4 player co-op campaign; the sequel trims it down to two playet co-op for some stupid reason. Would be nice to see if the MP community revives because I never beat it on co-op or went through Terrorist Hunt mode.

Thought the sequel was okay; I liked the challenges but hated the shift of characters to a bunch of characters named after chess pieces.

Rainbow Six Vegas? That game is like 6 years old, and there is already a second game that would make more sense to include as a free one.

And Magic I wont even comment one that one.

It is unfortunate that I can't download these games until I enter payment details despite being a Gold member.

Any fellow GaFfer have suggestion if I can add them to my download history without entering payment details?

Web store or console?

If it's web store, I'd just forego it and use the console. If it's a requirement on the console, you should give customer service a call as it shouldn't ask for payment details to download free content.
