As regular readers know, I like to cover the “Games with Gold” game selection every month by sharing the official video from Microsoft alongside my comments on each game, as presented in the video. If I know more about the game or have an opinion on it outside of Games with Gold, I’ll share that […]
You know the deal – new month, new games. I’m not wanting to draw out this intro as, honestly, writing about these feels like a bit of a chore but it’s sometimes nice to get to address something about these games that may (or may not be) mentioned in the Microsoft video, and this month […]
We’re coming into Spring (or at least, should be soon, the weathers been a bit crazy recently) and with a new month comes new games in the Xbox Live “Games with Gold” program. A refresher for you — these games are “free” with an active Xbox Live Gold subscription. I say “free” in quotes because […]
It’s the tail end of January which means you know what around here – me taking a look at February’s Games With Gold lineup! January wasn’t a bad assortment at all, but could have been better — let’s see how February looks! Starting off as always with the Xbox One we’re looking at Bloodstained: Curse […]
Woohoo! It’s about to be a new year and with that comes, well, a new month and new Games with Gold. 2018 wasn’t a bad year by any means – it had its high and low points, but on a whole provided a good selection of games and a few that I enjoyed checking out. […]
Well now, it’s the end of the year. Time for one last set of games, and here we have… well, it’s games. I’ll spare the intro and get right to the video and my thoughts on this end of the year set of free games. Let’s begin! On the Xbox One, we have Q.U.B.E. 2 […]
Alright, time for another set of “free” games from Microsoft. I put free in quotes because quite a few people argue about how “free” these games are given that they are available with an active Xbox Live Gold subscription. I’ll go into the details of this in the future but to put it simply, these […]
Oh good, Microsoft got off their tails and actually released this video before September began! Nice. You know the drill, 4 new games this month free alongside an active Xbox Live Gold subscription. Enough talk, let’s get down to the video and the games themselves! Opening up on the Xbox One we have Prison Architect […]
Oh boy, finally getting around to these. Now, I know I normally try to get these out in the last week of the previous month, when they get announced officially by Microsoft, and a few times I’ve been late to getting these articles written. Well, in this case, Microsoft themselves dropped the ball, and didn’t […]
Every year, before E3 Microsoft seems to really get behind on some of their monthly videos – in this case, the “Games with Gold” videos at the end of each month which show you what next months games are going to be. At least, I want to say E3 preparation is the cause of the […]
In a strange mistake by Microsoft, this video was released slightly early, back around the 18th or 19th. It’s since been unlisted, which doesn’t stop me from showing it to you now, so, here we are! Not to give away the ending too early, but this is one of the best months in a very […]
A new month, a new set of free games on via Games With Gold on Xbox. I don’t know why I enjoy covering these – I guess it’s funny, to me, to see just how random the game selections are each month. Besides, it gets hits, so it’s whatever. Right, you know the drill, let’s […]
Time to go over the March 2018 Xbox Live Games With Gold. This looks like it’s going to be a… fun.. month? Oh who am I kidding, this is one of the more strange ones. Let’s just get into it. Okay, for the Xbox One we have Trials of the Blood Dragon and Superhot. There.. […]
Microsoft just put out the February 2018 Xbox Live Games With Gold list and, as always, it’s got some good, and some bad to it. Let’s take a look. Opening up on Xbox One, we have Shadow Warrior and Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India. Shadow Warrior… Another first person shooter? Well, this one has swords and […]
Coming up on December already huh? Well, at least we know what the final Games with Gold titles for this year will be. That’s something, right? No? Well we’re looking at them anyway because, it’s just what I do around here. On the Xbox One we have Warhammer: Endtimes – Vermintide and Back to the […]
