    I bought an X-Box one for my young lad, then I redeemed the free month of X-Box live

    why can't I get Thief for free? I could get the other games but MS are asking for 29.99 to get the game when signed into X-Box store with an account that has a Gold sub

    That's strange so. Try logging in again on Xbox.com and make sure your set to to the Irish Store, bottom left of the page.

    Search for Thief and try again. If it dosent work take a screen shot and post it here we might be able to help some more.

    Make sure your region is set to Ireland if you are trying to get it through Microsoft's website (scroll down to the very bottom of the page to see the region).

    Operation Flashpoint wasn't available for me until I switched my region from USA to Ireland.

    Thief is now free for xb1

    Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising for 360 & xb1 (bc)

    Sacred 3 for 360 & xb1 (bc)

    Max The Curse of Brotherhood is showing up as free for me as well for xbox one on the console. It was GwG before but might be useful if someone missed it.

    You said earlier that you had redeemed the free month of Xbox Live and then said that the expiry date is November next year.

    Did you purchase a 12 month subscription also so?

    I don't know if you can avail of Games with Gold if you are using a 1 month sub.

    I got the earlier ones this month for free on the website, can't use the console as it been packed away for christmas (with all updates already done and Fifa installed)

    Might be an idea to fire the console up a day or two before the big day for update purposes, you never know when they fire an update out. There should be a cut off date for issuing updates near Christmas with this in mind lol

    Only other thing I can think of is that you might not be signed into the Xbox website with the same account as your console's account.

    Same for me on U.S. & Irish stores. Seen a free trial, on the 360 though.

    Max is often very cheap on Cdkeys and is a lovely little platformer, I thought.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,799 ✭✭✭MiskyBoyy


    For Max: Curse of Brotherhood.

    Supposedly it comes up as free on Smartglass ( a price of 0.00) so maybe try there if you don't already own it.

    I think they fixed it. Not showing up as free anymore.

    Really stupid question.
    How do I get Dragon Rising on the XB1?

    Log into Xbox.com and 'buy' it from there. It'll appear in your 'ready to download' section of my games and apps then.

    On the xbox one?
    Its a tad confusing.On xbox.com it says "download to xbox 360"
    I don't own a 360.

    Edit/

    Just did what you said and its not anywhere to be found on the XB1.

    It's backwards compatible, so will run on the Xbox one too.

    I do it on my laptop. If it says download to 360, just go with it, it's all tied to your gamertag anyway.

    I'll be home in ten minutes and try it myself but it should show up in my games and apps, scroll all the way to the right?
