Anyone want to play halo 3 coop on 360?
^Broadband Internet connection and Xbox Live Gold subscription required. whats that supposed to mean? or am i just overreacting?
Does anyone know if you have to anything to activate this or is it available when you login to your account?
IIRC it's active as soon as you log in… If not, the promo will come up on your home screen.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i've just moved and don't have internet in my new place yet :(
Use 3G/4G on your phone and make it a hotspot that your xbox can connect to. Done!
would chew through the bandwidth :( …. i'll just have to go without unless it gets hooked up today which is unlikely
Thanks OP, Just got my Xbox 360 -4GB version for my son, good time to get to know few free games. I am new to Xbox, Are there any games for 7-8 yrs age group in this promo?
Viva Pinata, Kinect sports (if you have the Kinect) and the lego games are good for that age
GTA V - let him get acquainted with driving around the the environs of LA etc :o)
Maybe. A lot of kids would have grown out of GTA by then.
its not working. Its saying that there's no xbox live
same here. error code after one update. m$ sux
For me, I want to play xbox live call of duty . Its saying that you dont have xbox live
knowing Xbox .. the Australia Day promo is prolly set to run on US EDT time! >.<
Same. Still waiting to get onto GTA V online
Still waiting..
One of the conditions states that you require an "Xbox live gold subscription". That doesn't make sense since this ad is for a free Xbox live gold subscription. Anyone have any input on this particular 'mistake'?
So, does anyone know when this may start, and if you actually need a Xbox live gold subscription or not?
Nothing showing up on my xbox either. I have xbox live, but not Gold currently. There's an "Australia Day" ad on my console, but it takes you to a sign up screen for Gold.
I think this will start based on American time. Tried to play Guitar Hero online and it gave me a 'you do not have permission to play online' message.
I wish they would make the Aussie controller that's on the Xbox One page.
Logged in, start a game, did not work. Find nowhere to activate this, maybe as the t&c you need a gold live subscription to enjoy the free gold live membership?
The only mention of the live free weekend is on the supplied page. There's no mention of it on the website, facebook page or dashboard. The given page isn't even readily accessible. Something's up.

According to this link, I think this promo belong to last year.
Clearly the deal (as specified) is not currently available!
Yep, this is definitely from last year, the nuffies at M$ haven't taken the banner down…a mod needs to kill this listing….
Before everyone asks, this free Gold weekend is NOT eligible for the 'Games with Gold' or 'Deal of the Week' promos - everything else is fine.
