I understand how you may be confused, but the games such as "Family Game Night", "Pinball FX 2", "Kinect Fun Labs" and "Game Room" are what I like to call app hubs.

 

You can download that app hub, go into it and in some cases get achievements and/or content for free, as well as being able to buy add-on applications. Also, you only get trial versions of the applications in the hub by separately downloading them.

 

From what I had been told, the free version of "Crimson Alliance" lets you play the first level, then asks you to buy the game to progress. That sounds very much like a demo to me.

 

It is a fine line I know, but it is a desicion I made and that I have to stick to so the list can remain consistent.

 

Fair enough, that makes sense :)

the bioshock stuff has been free for atleast 1 year that i know of.

the fable 3 stuff has been free since it was on xbox.

the batman has been free since release.

 

ALOT of stuff that people pay $8-$15 on xbox are free on pc, especially on through steam. im thinking of going back to exclusively gaming on pc. tired of the watered down shitty low res textured games on consoles and the lack of mouse and keyboard is just unacceptable

As far as I know all these should be available in all regions and are definitely free.

 

Edit: I added Marketplace links although they are in Dutch so I'm not sure if they'll work for you.

Might want to hold off playing just yet, as the achievements are not posted to xbox.com - if you unlock anything, you'll have to recover your gamertag once they're posted and redo the achievements for the scores to properly add.

 

 

*WARNING ABOUT "I AM SUPER" KINECT FUN LABS APP UPDATED 28.03.2012*

Achievements are up now.

 

It appears the app is now safe to play.

Another free 50G? Notify me when it's safe to play it, I downloaded it now ahead of time just in case Microsoft wants to make it cost money later. Now if Sparkler goes on sale, I'll have em all.

youve been able to play it since late yesterday. i only need the multiplayer achievement to finish

Of course you can play it, but if the achievements are not listed on xbox.com you may experience problems later on.

 

Look, everyone can do what they want, but I was not going to post this game without giving fair warning. I personally will just wait until I see the achievements listed on xbox.com, it is not like I have been excitedly awaiting this games release.

Is that what you meant by you can play it? That was safe from late yesterday? If so I do beg you pardon, you are right. Edited by BluWolve

Don't own the game yet, but at 124KB, why not? ;) Thanks!

 

 

Just a heads up for BluWolve - this one is region locked. I'm not able to get it with a UK gamertag.

 

Having said that, I've never heard of Rocksmith, so I'm guessing US release only??

EDIT: Googled it - for anyone interested it's been out in the US since October 2011, but it's not coming to us until September 2012. Random... :p

In regards to the Castle Crashers Pink Knight pack, did anyone else realize that there is a Castle Crashers update and two (free) avatar awards tied to the update?

This may be old news, but it was new to me. They are both tied to two achievements and will give you the Orange Knight Helmet and Cardinal avatar pet.

You can see more here:

Greetinga one and all.

 

Been on the site for years since making an Xbox360 account. Finally made an account.

 

Wanted to share with anyone who liked Avatar: The Last Airbender that the new show has its 1stjust episode free on Xbox 360. Pretty interesting show from the 1stdays episode.

 

Enjoy and keep achieving

 

I so want this, where is it?

 

EDIT: There's a free game as part of a advertisement on the US dashboard, the game is called "Happy Feet". Haven't played yet but will update if you need kinect and if it has achievements. Part of a contest. There's also a free theme and gamerpics to go along with it, if you want to download them.

Just logged onto my US account to see what it was you're talking about.

 

I'm guessing you mean "Musical Feet"? That's a Kinect Fun Labs app, it has been free for a while I think (at least I've already got it and I never paid for it!)

 

There are free gamerpics and theme too, but they aren't for Musical Feet. They're Intel ones, as it's part of a comptition to win an 'Ultrabook'. Think I might have already had those too. :p
