Gone Home

Rayman 3 HD doesn't seem to be free yet.

Contacted support on the webpage, apparently it's a known issue. I went ahead with the purchase based on their advice and haven't seen a charge on my Paypal account yet.

Yes I definitely understand, this has been forwarded to the developer, and the work around to get the game free is to just go straight ahead and if he ask for a payment option just choose purchase the game no worries you wont be charge but if the system charged you I can definitely process the refund.

From Reddit: Kalimba is Free as GwG in another region (similar to Zoo Tycoon a few months ago) - here's the region link


Kalimba is a clever, couch co-op puzzle game and the perfect way to end any friendship or relationship.

Don't forget to switch the Microsoft / Xbox site back to your region, otherwise in a couple of months you'll be wondering why it's in Chinese.

Could you use a Revolut card?

You can use PayPal now if you want to also!
I switched mine to paypal a while back, so don't have to deal with changing out the details for old cards anymore

Anyone know where I can see all the Games with Gold I have for both Xbox 360 and Xb1? Ive lost track of them all

if you go into your account on xbox.com and check your purchase history , I believe they'll show up there.

Thanks, Ill try that.

Don't think there's a way to separate them out from your purchases, but here's a list of all games that have been games with gold at one time or another.

I never purchased any games digitally. Looking through that list is daunting as I only had gold status now and again.

If you go to your 'ready to install' list you'll see them
Its in the games and apps' menu

That only shows X360 games that you can play on Xb1, plenty of X360 games would be missing from that ready to install list

Medal of Honor Airborne

now free with GWG.

Finished Oxenfree last night, wasn't bad but hard to really call it a "game"

No challenge at all to it

It's part of a new trend of games to have them more as an interactive story more than a traditional game - Telltale are making a killing with it at the moment. Gone Home, another of the Games with Gold this month, is like it as well.

For Oxenfree, your choices and conversations can have a big impact on the relationships in the game. It was interesting and entertaining and the conversation system was really quite natural, impressive voice acting.
