yes, game is always urs


Very misleading, they had a Free with gold banner, and game was Battlefield 4 in background of it. I have the game, but figured if it went free, people might actually play, and you wont go into a map as the only person.

The Dynasty Warriors series is a guilty pleasure of mine. Didn't know they had one on the current gen.

Pretty good lineup. I've never played any of those games, but I have always enjoyed Dynasty Warriors games. Wrestling games are also entertaining, and Beyond Good and Evil has great reviews.

Couldn't really care less about Spelunky, but I'll add it to the collection.

This is only true for Xbox One games, right?

Also, if you are offline playing a 360 game, you need to be on the console you originally downloaded the game to. Otherwise you need to be online and using your gamer tag.

None of this really matters to me unless the cable goes out. Xbox Live is cheap even at full price.

To my knowledge it's the same with 360 games

I was going to keep asking questions, but decided it would be better if I just looked it up.

This is from an article about "what happens when you cancel Xbox Live Gold."

quote:

You get to keep your Xbox 360 Xbox Live Gold games: The way Xbox Live Gold was set up originally on the Xbox 360 was that it would reward subscribers with free Xbox 360 videogames on a monthly basis under the Games with Gold system. These games, once claimed, would be added to the user’s account and they would maintain ownership indefinitely. This hasn’t changed. Even after cancelling an Xbox Live Gold subscription, any Xbox 360 titles claimed while a member will remain in a user’s account and will be fully playable after the cancellation.


quote:

You can no longer play your Xbox One Xbox Live Gold games: Xbox One Xbox Live Gold games on the other hand work a little differently than the Xbox 360 titles as instead of giving ownership of the games to the user, the membership grants access to them for as long as they’re a member. This isn’t an issue for most Xbox One owners as the majority remain Xbox Live Gold members for the lifetime of their console, but for those that terminate their membership (or forget to renew) all access to any Xbox One titles claimed under the Games with Gold banner is removed, even though the game data will remain on their console and in the cloud. The good news is that whenever a membership is reactivated, access to all previously claimed titles is renewed and all of the save data is made immediately accessible.


According to that site, you can also still use streaming apps like Netflix after cancelling Gold.
