For those who know, or don't know, Microsoft is giving two free games a month which are available on the 1st and 16th of each month till December this year. This info was released at E3 and this is their websites release on it.



Our members have made the Xbox Live community what it is today.

As our way of saying thanks, we're giving all active Gold members two bonus Xbox 360 games each month for the rest of the year. Each specially selected, fan-favorite game will be available to download only for a limited time, so grab them before they’re gone and keep them no matter what.

So far Fable 3 was free (and still is I believe) and Defense Grid: The Awakening is currently free.

Go here (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/games-with-gold) for the current free game every 1st and 16th and we'll post what they are here for your interest.

I do know Spartacus is free as well. Even though it is not a part of this deal... worthy of a mention though along with Happy Wars whatever that game is about!

I got Happy Wars offered to me when I did beta testing for Microsoft... Never played it, but a friend of mine says it is addicting....

Looks like we're getting Assassin's Creed 2 soon. You can read it here (http://news.xbox.com/2013/07/games-ac-july-xbox-live) or below.



Xbox Live Gold Members Get Assassin’s Creed II For Free on July 16

http://news.xbox.com/~/media/Files/AC.jpg?w=940

Mark your calendars for July 16 - Ubisoft’s critically-acclaimed “Assassin’s Creed II” will be the next game featured in the Xbox Live “Games with Gold” program. Normally 1600 Microsoft Points, “Assassin’s Creed II” can be downloaded on Xbox 360 for free by Xbox Live Gold members between July 16 and July 31. After you download it, it is yours to keep.

And, make sure you don’t miss the current “Games with Gold” game - Gold members can download “Defense Grid: The Awakening” for free until July 15.

As a special thanks to the Xbox Live Gold community, the “Games with Gold” program gives Xbox Live Gold members two free games to keep each month. “Defense Grid: The Awakening” and “Assassin’s Creed II” were the first pair of games announced for the month of July. And, “Fable 3” was a special bonus game available in June. We’ll have more details about upcoming additional titles in the near future.

What AC2 isn't good? Besides not a lot of people bought it, like me, so getting it free is a definite plus.

AC2 was my favorite of the series. Anyways, they do have a lot more games going on sale though. Not free but cheaper...

• LEGO Lord of the Rings (http://www.trueachievements.com/LEGO-Lord-of-the-Rings/achievements.htm)
• LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes (http://www.trueachievements.com/LEGO-Batman-2-DC-Super-Heroes/achievements.htm)
• Hasbro Family Game Night 3 (http://www.trueachievements.com/Family-Game-Night-3/achievements.htm)
• Monopoly Streets (http://www.trueachievements.com/Monopoly-Streets/achievements.htm)
• Kinect Sports: Season Two (http://www.trueachievements.com/Kinect-Sports-2/achievements.htm)
• Rockstar Table Tennis (http://www.trueachievements.com/Rockstar-Table-Tennis/achievements.htm)

All those are 10$ I believe, so take that info how you want it!

This link here is useful as well because you can see some of the upcoming DLC sales etc.

First, why complain about something free? Especially when they never promised you free stuff before-this is a recent bonus.

Second, they didn't do something newer because then they lose money. At least I have never played this game, and there are plenty more who haven't either.
