XBL: Games with Gold

On a related note, you know what really grinds my gears?

I delete games from my HDD to make room for more. No problem, right? However when I go to my download history I want to search for GAMES PURCHASED, and not have to sift through all the updates, avatar stuff, demos, etc. Is there a way to do just that? Filter the search on the Xbox 360? There's games I DL'd a long time ago, forget I have, and wouldn't notice unless I looked at my complete DL history.

Xbox.com provides that option. Check under transaction history....I think.

I doubt Terraria will be one of the games. It only came out on Live last year, and I don't think it has any DLC that MS could make money off of.

Saints Row 3, Dragon Age Origins or Red Dead Redemption, please.
 
Is anyone playing Dungeon Defenders? I have it downloaded, but I'm still on the fence. Is it easy to just get into a quick match? Is the game playable with other randoms?

Found it!
  1. Xbox.com
  2. Sign in
  3. My Account
  4. Manage Device
  5. Purchase History
  6. Full Games

Wow, there's games in there I forgot I had (like i said earlier)!

To resolve this problem, I always keep a save before delete a game. Even if I don't really play the game yet, I just start it and make a save to keep in the 360
So I just have to look in the HD of the 360 to know which games I have
 
Saints Row 2..? Seriously? I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this point. I don't want to sound ungrateful but considering the amount a years subscription is, a lot of these aged (retail) games you could find for a couple of quid used anyway.
 
This looks like the fakest looking thing ever. But Voalition (?) did let PS+ have SR3 and Terraria is old enough. Looks like Spencer is having a hard picking out good games for GWG.

Terraria has only been out for a year on 360 so its not anywhere near as old as the games they usually pick.

Somebody on twitter said that the Xbox canada FB page accidentally posted a page that said the first game of the month was Hitman Absolution. Take it with a grain of salt though.
 
I haven't played that arcade game so I'd be happy with that. Saints Row 2 I have played..... I think? Can't remember at this point, but if not I'll play it again. Probably go back and get some achievements or something.


I'm not complaining about it.

SR2 was already on PS+ back in 2012 too. I see no reason to give that away, would probably take away from SRIV sales too.

That's less than 2 years old so if true that's pretty damn good. I've never played the game either so I would like it.
 
I hope it's Hitman. Played it on PS3 with PS+ but I'd love to play it again with the 360 controller and get some cheevos from it.

Speaking of achievements. FUCK YOU CIV REV AND YOUR GOD DAMN NON-MULTIPLE OF 5 ACHIEVEMENTS. My Gamerscore now ends in an 8 because I got a 3 point achievement. 3 points! The OCD in me goes off the scale when I see my score now.

/end rant
 
Yea, that's kind of what I'm assuming. I'm not even sure what they would give out unless they fundamentally change the Xbox One version of GWG to be more like PS+.

I have a feeling that they will make the xbox one games with gold program more like a PS+. Or else they won't start until the end of the year.
 
I'm just someone who posts information once I've confirmed it if it seems like it would be of interest to others.

Waiting for a press release seems kind of pointless, you know? :)

Syriel, you seem to know what's up so I'm waiting for your leak for next month. :eek:

Haha, that caught me off guard too. Luckily they even out with really easy achievements, it's like they fucked with OCD people to get through the early game stuff.

Finally played dungeon defenders and that game was doodoo on a stick my Gawd how that game got good reviews is beyond me.
I'd actually like SR2 I've played and enjoyed parts 3 and 4 so it'd be nice to know more of the origins.

Too bad I have Hitman already. I'd dig SR2, its old but I'd give it a whirl. Still, they might as well give us SR3 since it can also be found for very cheap.

Will we ever have other regions games? I mean...come one....Lost Planet 2 and Banjo Kazooie are games I wanted and they were only released on countryes that censured the Zombie games (dead rising and Dead Island).
 
i recently renewed live to play left 4 dead 2 with some work colleagues and man ive been spoiled by ps plus.... the current free game on game for gold isnt even worth a download. hopefully the next one is better
 
Saints Row was absolute shit until The Third.

You're crazy. The Third and SR4 weren't anywhere near as good or content rich as SR2. SR2 is the series peak...
