    Info Xbox One Games With Gold Starts Next Month

    Just found this.

    During June, Xbox One Gold LIVE members will be able to download Max: The Curse of Brotherhood (Xbox One) and Halo: Spartan Assault (Xbox One). The one thing that you will need to bear in mind is that you will need to have an active Gold membership to be able to play your free games. If you let your Gold membership lapse, you will not be able to play those free games until you re-purchase your Gold. You must also download the titles during the promotional window, so those who are planning on getting an Xbox One at a later date are unlikely to be able to trigger the free games on Xbox.com ready for when they buy the console at a later date.

    Source and full article:

    I wouldn't have paid money for either of these games but I'll certainly be giving Halo a try for free. Looks fun. Curse of the brotherhood not so much.

    Good to see games with gold been implemented on Xbox one. Didn't think it would be ready for it as I would have thought there's hardly any games they'd be willing to give away for free yet.

    Do you think they will have re-coded some older games to run on XB1?


    Its better to burn out than to fade away...............

    I wouldn't have thought so. I know pretty much bugger all about game development and game coding but I presume that it would be quite a task to re-code last gen to current gen due to the vastly different architectures. Especially for something they are going to give away for free. I mean who would re-code it? I'm sure the game studio's who made it would have better things to do than re-code a game there not gonna get paid for.

    I like the idea but just don't see it. Hoping to be proved wrong though.

    Humm, need to find someone with an xbox one to register the games to my gold account.
    I wonder if you can do that on xbox.com if you haven't registred your account to an xbox?
    Would be good to get some of the free games before getting an xbox one.

    I don't recall ever registering my Xbox One unless it just does it automatically when you sign into your account on it? Don't know how it all works really regarding activating the games online (xbox.com) then using on your Xbox.

    Not sure what my point is. Just pointing out that there is no specific registration process.

    a lot of the xbox 360 XBLA games are on the pc version of windows live. So would be easier to port the pc versions.

    Can you not just do it over the web?
    I normally queue up the Xbox 360 games this way so that when I get home and turn on the 360 they automatically download.

    Obviously if you have no Xbox One console registered it might be a different matter.... I cannot access xboxlive site through work (classed as games so it is blocked) to try.
    We all make mistakes sometimes

    I bought Halo as I'm a huge fan of the Halo franchise. It is actually good fun. Haven't played Max though - I'll be queuing it up when they start it.

    im amazed they are giving away free games so early, no strings attached i assume? apart from requiring a gold account of course!
    You know he grew up as a little shitspark from the old shitflint and then he turned into a shitbonfire and driven by the winds of his monumental ignorance he turned into a raging shitfirestorm. If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever. And with any luck he'll drown in the undershit of that wave. Shitwaves.

    Don't think it's something they wanted to do I think it's due to Sony doing it, good to have 2 big names in the console scene as they keep each other honest and competitive
