Same here. No issue, just would like to get home to turn on the download before they try and take it away again.

Doesn't work for me for some reason.

wasn't working for me so I changed payment from card to MS points and got it for free!

They said it was because of "apparent error" But i think it's because of the day that's in it - game launch for xbox one later today

And what will happen when xbox fix the error? They'll deduct the points from your account.

They won't, this was on purpose, its convenient timing don't you think? The day of E3?

Doubt it, why would it not work for some people if that was the case?

Cos it went up earlier than it should, trust me this is on purpose.

I searched for Fable 3 in games and it was marked as free, I didn't have to state how I wanted to buy it, I just got the option to download for free.
It's over 5 gigs though.

Persistence..

Got it.

Now, to justify playing it, with the Sun Scorching the Streets..

MiskyBoyy

It's a great game, enjoy!

...and if you like it, then definitely check out Fable 2, much better imo!

No, the demo button was right next to the download for free button.

Downloading now.
It's coming up as Free in the marketplace.

talking_walnut

Can't decide if I should cash in my 24hr Gold Membership for this or not. Decisions decisions....

ASOT

Just got it cheers op

recyclops

Got it a few minutes ago on xbox.com, came up in euros first with a "Gold Exclusive" price of €19.99, from €19.99. But once I switched to MS points it was free.

Mikeyt086

Came up as 'Free' on Marketplace for me, brilliant.

jamesbondings

Takes ages to download lads & lassies 61% down after about an hour. However free is free and free it is

johnf26

sweet man thanks op great find

esprimo

so you have to have a gold account to get it through the website or xbox,yes? People with the "free" silver accounts are out of luck..?

If you have any 24 hour trials laying around you should use them or if you've created less than 3 accounts on your xbox (think it's 3) you can create a new account and you'll get gold for a month. Then just download.

This being 'free' must be e3 related. Fable 4 has to be announced later on at the Microsoft press conference. e3 lasts from today until wednesday. So I reckon after that it'll switch to pay. Be quick so.

Is this still working?

Someone on HUKD said they tried it with a 24hr trial and it didn't work. Apparently they're actually just Silver accounts with added access.

Just letting ye know. I haven't tried this myself. Just reporting what I read elsewhere (/disclaimer)

Has anyone tried this? I have no idea if it works.

mrcheez

Got it eventually, some "Region" setup issues :pac:

jojobeans

Nice one for that op, everyone on xbox playing fable 3 now haha, is it a promotion cos there's a new one coming out?

esprimo

used a 14-day trial code for gold, doesn't seem to allow me to do anything? Tried setting up new account to get the 1 month trial- but you need to set up payment details first,any way around that?
