Title: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: The Sceneman on October 31, 2013, 03:24:58 PM: I expected some disappointing games, but daaaaaaaaaaamn.

Quote from: Major Nelson
The next set of free games for Xbox Live Golf Members in November will be A World of Keflings and Iron Brigade.

Starting Friday (November 1st) A World of Keflings (Normally US $9.99) will be free for Xbox Live Gold members through November 15th .

Then on November 16th, Xbox Live Gold Members can download Iron Brigade (Normally US $9.99) for free.

:anhuld

Not even a full retail game this month. Horrible

Post by: The Sceneman on October 31, 2013, 05:07:57 PM: Well I don't own either of the games, and I'm no stranger to gobbling up garbage for gamerscore, so these are getting downloaded. Fingers crossed for easy completions

I've got an even 200/200 in the game, but have been meaning to play through the Martian Bear DLC; a little bro-op will refresh my "muscle memory."

FYI, the link shows as a US$9.99 for me, the dashboard still shows HALO3 as the current Gold offering, but going to the game's Marketplace link directly on the 360 shows it as a free purchase.

Weird.

Post by: The Sceneman on November 03, 2013, 02:30:06 PM: Keflings aint half bad, kinda like Age of Empires, Fisher Price edition. A chill relaxing game
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: chronovore on November 03, 2013, 10:34:52 PM: Yeah, that's what I'm feeling about it, too. I can play it in front of my kids, so that's nice. It's mainly just relaxing. I was not happy the first hour, before I figured out about transporter Kelflings, and was doing the lifting myself. :lol

Then I was worried about using up resources and sending them to the wrong establishments, but each shop has the ability to spit out large bundles of anything on hand, so that's OK too.

I'm liking it alright. I'd been curious about it for a long while, so I'm happy to get it for free.
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: The Sceneman on November 06, 2013, 02:55:01 PM: I was feeling particularly vegetative last night and ended up being glued to Keflings for like 3 hours. It's a very simple game with such minor challenge, but that actually makes it damn relaxing and enjoyable. I can see myself bending over for the DLC
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: chronovore on November 06, 2013, 06:13:00 PM: Yeah, I also enjoyed it quite a bit, having finished it last night. However, the "build 100 buildings" Achievement was pretty annoying there at the end of the main campaign, when I needed 26 more buildings.

Now I'm kinda done with it.

Also, I got Megastar in Avatar Famestar, for whatever that's worth.

:its_nothing.gif
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: The Sceneman on November 06, 2013, 06:31:30 PM: Congrats on the MEGASTAR STATUS!!

Haha, thats what the DLC and multiplayer is for :spin

I don't want to get suckered into the games with gold paid DLC with achievements trap again, but I know I'm gonna bend over for the additional cocktent :tocry
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: The Sceneman on November 10, 2013, 06:59:29 PM: Finished Keflings, superb.

Will get the DLC next week once the fame challenges reset, so I can get dat Megastar status :win
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: chronovore on November 10, 2013, 07:47:01 PM: It was pretty fun, and relaxing. I don't feel like shelling out $8 for 200 gamerscore. I'm done, deleted the game.
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: AdmiralViscen on November 14, 2013, 03:51:04 PM: Iron Brigade on the way bitches
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: chronovore on November 14, 2013, 09:11:15 PM: Great game; I've got 200/200 in it, but haven't touched the DLC.

I suspect no-one will have the DLC even after this freebie is enjoyed. :-\

Someone play Resogun with me instead
Title: Re: Xbox Games with Gold: November
Post by: chronovore on November 15, 2013, 11:03:40 PM: I can't believe they're not pushing more of the Kinect stuff out with Gold. So much of that was sponsored by Microsoft Studios, they've got to own the rights to all of it.

And on that note, I keep thinking Joy Ride Turbo, the XBLA downloadable, no-Kinect version of Joy Ride, will be next on the list, but it never is.

I know I'm a nerd for saying it, but I like playing games which let me play as my Xbox Avatar.

Post by: Raban on November 16, 2013, 02:22:42 AM: I really want to buy Geometry Wars 2 but I just KNOW they'll give it away on Games with Gold. They have to, right?
