    I think its to much running and gunning so far, also I seem to run out of ammo too easily and Im stuck using the claw thing.

    So can someone actually tell me if it's true that Ryse is going to be coming out soon on Games with Gold?

    Nobody knows. We have been predicting it for next month for over a year now and it never materializes. So, you won't know for sure until it's actually announced. Anything else is just rumour.

    I apologise on behalf of the other regular boardsies here. I'm pretty sure we all thought you were joking as we have been joking about it coming for quite some time now. :p:D

    Can you now download games on your 360, and then play them on your XB1, once backward compatibility is up and running properly?

    Or am I being daft :pac:

    Yes you can play all the 360 games once the full backwards compatibility is released and as long as each game dev for each game basically gives the thumbs up for their game to be playable through ONE.

    Anyone having trouble with Thief?

    'Bought' it for free earlier, booted up th 360 and got the message 'Can't download Thief'.

    Went back to the website to try again but now when I click to buy it it's giving me a Runtiime Error :confused:

    It's most like likely a standard error unfortunately. Give it a day or two and it'll be totally fine, which, of course, isn't much consolation right now.

    Once the game starts downloading, walk away from the console. Leave it on download screen till its done. The only way it works for me

    I've found that to be the only way to get it to download lately is to do exactly as you said. It used to be a bit more robust before. games also dont seem to download when the console is turned off anymore either.

    walk away from the console
    - should be sticked as the correct procedure :D

    In fact that could be the default answer to a lot queries!

    I can't score goals and concede easy goals in FIFA. What do I do?
    walk away from the console.
    I get explicit messages when I beat people in COD. What can I do?
    walk away from the console.
    I keep dying in Dark Souls. It's infuriating. Any Help?
    walk away from the console.

    For the month of July, Xbox Live Gold members will receive four new free games – two on Xbox One and two on Xbox 360 – as part of the Games with Gold program.

    This July represents two full years since we began giving Gold members access to amazing games, completely free. As a special thank you to our Xbox fans, we’re announcing that starting in July, Games with Gold will offer two new games on Xbox One every month.

    On Xbox One, Xbox Live Gold members can download Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag ($29.99 ERP) for free during the month of July. So Many Me ($14.99 ERP) will be available as a free download from July 16th to August 15th.

    On Xbox 360, starting Wednesday, July 1st, Plants vs. Zombies ($14.99 ERP) will be free for Xbox Live Gold members through July 15th. Then on July 16th, Xbox Live Gold Members can download Gears of War 3 ($19.99 ERP) for free through July 31st.


    Excellent, more free games.

    Haven't played Gears 3, sweet :)

    Would be wonderful if all GwG going forward were backwards compatible on release...

    Black flag is a good one for sure. Biggest Xbox One GWG so far?

    Indeed, from now on, there'll be two new games every month, an upgrade from the original offer of "two free games, with one new game per month."

    See here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,000 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    Aw boo. I have all those games already apart from that so many me one.

    That being said, they're of a higher standard than we're used to which is always nice to see.

    delighted to see gears 3, might hop back in for some Horde 2.0, epic times.

    Defintiely the biggest title so far. Fits the bill for GwG nicely, though. Title with loads of DLC and a sequel coming out shortly.

    Has been available for dirt cheap digitally, too.
