For those who haven't yet, Deus Ex: Human Revolution is now free: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-IE/Product/DEUS-EX-HUMAN-REVOLUTION/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802535107fa

Region blocked :mad:

Very stupid question but if I own Deus Ex already can I get this as well thus I won't need the disc anymore.

Sorry if this has been asked before but have Xbox changed the way you can queue games to download from the Xbox website?

I used to be able to click download and it would queue but now it is asking me to enter payment details?

I know I wont be charged but I really dont want to have to add my card details to the xbox considering I never want to purchase anything from them directly. Its always cheaper to use cdkeys.co.uk or someone like that.

Is there any way around this?

Witcher 2 has just become available for free....in the U.S., Canada, United Kingdom, France and Germany.

Of course Ireland get's left out, sometimes I wished I lived in Ulster just so I could get the best of both worlds. Does anyone know a way you can bypass this?

It's available to download if you type in 'The Witcher 2' in 'search all games' on the X1 console.

Just go on their site and go to the games for gold section and click on Deus Ex, then purchase it (don't worry it's free but unfortunately you need some sort of payment set up), then once you do that wait a few minutes and restart your XB1 then go to my games and keep going right to you see a small section that says ready to install and there you go.

I actually just found this out myself a few minutes ago, I was thinking to myself do I really have to drag my 360 out and hook it up again just to download this. Thankfully that wasn't the case. Though it be simpler if you could just do it on the XB1 though it's a free game so I can't complain.

Cheers. It must be the payment option stopping me. It is the young lads XB1 and I removed my CC info after the initial setup. Can't trust the little bugger

Witcher 2 just showed up on my "To Download" list on the One, I selected it and it downloaded no poblem.
Nothing about having to purchase it or being in the wrong region

Yeah I could finally do it today, must of been just a mistake they made yesterday as it said it wasn't available in my region.

You downloaded it straight to your One, how do you do that? I went on the store, games for gold and even typed in Witcher 2 but none of them let me download it so I just went to the website.

It says free on xbox.com but keeps asking for me to add a credit card when I try to download it. Will try on my xbox1 tonight

You need a payment method attached to your account, even for free games, for 360.

Can't purchase witcher 2 for 360. Trying to get here of my phone but saying I'm not in correct region

Check down the bottom left of the screen - it probably says "English - united states" - click it and select Ireland as your region, you should be grand then.

In "My Games & Apps" if you go all the way to the right of the Games list, there is a section that has Games Ready for Download, thats where it appeared

Just to clarify games that show up in the ready to install list are there because you might have associated the game with your account previously when the witcher 2 was a GWG title or someone you game share with has associated the game with their account. The ready to install section is simply a list of titles that are linked to your account and that can be played on XB1.

Anyone that has never downloaded the game will not find it in the ready to install list. Xbox.com seems to be the best option to get the game or by going to the store on Xbox One and selecting search games and entering the title.

Be warned you will not be able to download the game if you don't have a valid payment method linked to your account. Even if you believe you do your card may have expired so check your details.

I cant seem to get deus ex human revolution, I tried the website, it says I need a credit card even though it's free, I can't seem to get it on the xbox one because it says bundle only, but there is no bundle for it. And my 360 is broken and cant use wifi on it. Anything I can do?

You need to add a credit card/payment option to your account before you can download.

You won't be charged.
