It could also be that, depending on whether Microsoft counts the game that carries over every month on Xbox One. If not then it would be three games for Xbox One, if they count it then it would be four for Xbox One.

Im not saying you're wrong but under Microsoft economics, i'd still scale back expectations until they clarify it.
Could be that IDARB goes over for a 3rd month + Rayman Legends and then 2 others
This is what I'm expecting.

So double the games in April would be two brand new X1 games and four 360 games? Sounds good to me.
Is that going to be a new thing or one month only?

Those 360 are all arcades, I imagine it will be 2 retail & 2 arcades... but March is getting 2 retail so who knows.
I think banjo nuts & bolts is a good shout for 360 soonish, especially if kampfheld is to be believed about a banjo reveal at e3.
I really want Shadowrun to be free for everyone and playable online with Silver. It's such a simple package, there is no DLC, no microtransactions, no player progression, no leveling unlocks. All it needs is more players.
C'mon Microsoft, do me a favor, FASA is dead anyway, rez Shadowrun for me.

Hmm... Oddworld New & Tasty is expected to release soon, I wonder if that will be one of the April games?

I could've sworn it was already one. I don't know how else I got it downloaded.
There was a mistake for like 3 days or so where it was free. I am asking for full on charity, free download, and free to play with no Gold.
There is no more money to be gleamed from the product, but it would just be a fantastic MP only FPS for the 360, especially this late in the lifespan.

Already finished Rayman on Vita so not an interesting Xbox One offer this month for me
But... couch co-op!

Man the xbox games with gold is so much better on the 360, it makes me wish I still had mine. I hate the fact that the xbox one not only gets low tier games (ok rayman is great but it's pretty much the only one) but you also need to always have xbl gold to play the games. With the 360 you could buy a 1 month xbl gold sub and get the free games to own permanently. Also dislike that GWG on the xbox one are offered for 2 months straight instead of switching out for different titles.

While they might be good games, I've already played all of them, so personally its a pretty nothing month.
Or maybe Fruit Ninja 2, but I doubt a game that requires kinect will be part of GwG.
You're probably right, Rayman will likely be included in that "double month". I'm hoping we get a couple of new games out of it, but with the two a month stretching to really one new game a month, two and Rayman sounds like a safe bet (for Xbox One, I mean).

You're right. I misread the leak. Still, I have the 360 games from the leak. Oh well.

Maybe D4 again? I expect it to be 2 older ones and 2 new ones as well.

QFT. The worst part about it is that it's a "free" added value for people who subscribe anyway and people will still complain.

I'm excited for Rayman. I was about to buy that game for 20 but decided against it.
Now, regarding April, it will probably be two new games and, if we are lucky, the two new games per month will continue afterward.

I thought you could play SR for free on silver accounts when they made it free for PC silver accounts to play.
yep, any cross-plat 360 titles can be played online by silver accounts

Looking forward to Rayman - I own it on Vita, but barely use the machine. I'll likely end up playing the Xbox One version a lot more.
Having bought Ryse recently, I'd selfishly rather get Dead Rising 3 for April. Wouldn't be surprised to see Tomb Raider or Thief show up in the next few months either.

I've thought about this and the only explanation I could think of is that then everyone would realize how awesome a shooter it is and never give them money for another FPS again.

Wow, would have never expected Rayman Legends for Xbone. Solid 360 choices too. GWG has come a long way from offering Gears 1 and some tower defense game.
Hopefully double games in April becomes the norm in the future. I'd love 2 Xbone, 2 360, and 2 WP/Win8/whatever to compete with PS+
Ya done good MS.

That's the paradox of Games With Gold (and PS+): most "loyal" owners are the most probably disappointed ones.

It was on sale a while back, I got it for £12!
Xbox confirmed today that those are the games for March. For April you get 4 360 games and 2 XB1 games. Also sounds like it's a one time thing also

Glad to see yesterday's leak was real. Some great titles from 2013! Even though I already own them all, I'm happy for people to give them a try who skipped out on these titles.
This worked for about 6 months in 2008 when they turned off Gold requirement for GFWL. They reset it back to requiring Gold on 360, PC is still free to play.

Shit. I should've traded Infinite in when it was worth something. I've beaten Tomb Raider twice, too, and own the DE.
Rayman Legends is a nice bonus, though. Loved it on Wii U, and played some on PS4.
This is a GREAT month, though.

They also broke the cross-platform voice chat when they changed the audio codec for Xbox 360. So now all you hear is garbled robot voices from PC users. PC users don't hear Xbox players at all. We tried to contact Microsoft to see if they would do something about it, they responded that they recognized the problem, but never fixed it.

I Q up the X1 games at Xbox.com even though I don't own one yet, but might as well take advantage since I have a gold sub.
Apparently not :/

I need to stop playing PS Plus free games and activating the trophies. They tend to end up on Gold for 360 which means I actually own them proper. Would rather play a version I own than a version I rent.
