        The ol' rule of 'i' before 'e' except after 'c' and the 'f' in Battlefeild.

    Man I wish there was an alternative if you already own the game

    • LuthLexor on 25/08/2017 - 09:29

      And if you owned that game…?

    • guidedlight on 25/08/2017 - 10:16

      Japan sometimes has different games, so you can try and download those instead (or as well).
      Last month I picked up Zoo Tycoon from the Japan store.

    This Cobalt game is still free for Xbox Live users.

      Awesome! Missed that post somehow. Thanks :)

      • relentless on 25/08/2017 - 01:35

        Can it be merged to this post for maximum benefit?

          Sure! I'll add the post to the description in case others missed it too :)

    • imurgod on 25/08/2017 - 09:13

      Says it's $26.95. How do you get it for free?

      • uder on 25/08/2017 - 10:15

        Sign in to your Microsoft account.

        • imurgod on 25/08/2017 - 10:52

          That's what I did. I signed in from PC though

          @imurgod: Same. Just make sure you're in the Japanese store. This is for Cobalt.

        • imurgod on 26/08/2017 - 00:13

          @uder: Ahhh Japanese store….

      • clarenix0813 on 25/08/2017 - 11:15

        Says September. So starts september 1st 10 am AEST

  • ireadtermsofuse on 25/08/2017 - 01:37

    Ah yes. How I would love to revisit forza 5

    Oxenfree is a great game for sci fi fans

      Agreed! Loved oxenfree. Kinda spooky, great writing.

  • Windows7forever on 25/08/2017 - 05:18

    DO you need to maintain a gold account to keep playing the free games?

    Wouldn't bf3 be a dead game by now?

    • Online Bathroomware on 25/08/2017 - 08:49

      Surprisingly there are still people that play.

    • guidedlight on 25/08/2017 - 08:58

      It actually had a recent revival on Xbox since it because backwards compatible. It didn't take long for me to find a game a few weeks ago.

      • DaTa on 25/08/2017 - 10:53

        It was a great game I played the crap out of it, Bf4 was a minor tweak and took me abit to get used to it, alot of games have a player base that disappears shortly after release.

  • Iconic14 on 25/08/2017 - 08:12

    il take forza and bf3 thanks. better than this month for sure

    Bf3 operation metro, private servers back in the xbox 360 days.. good memories

    • guidedlight on 25/08/2017 - 08:56

      24/7 Metro. All Metro, all day, every day for the last 5 years.

      • brendanAUS on 25/08/2017 - 09:28

        That was my jam too haha nice

  • TheDukeOfNukem on 25/08/2017 - 08:57

    I have BF3 through EA Access and PS+ but another copy ain't gonna be a bad thing.

    Forza and Hydro Thunder are (profanity) great. Guess it's time to renew / find another trial.

  • mavis30551 on 25/08/2017 - 09:43

    Forza 5 is more of a hard core race sim isnt it?

    • JonShannow on 25/08/2017 - 10:04
      +1

      Yes and no.

      It can be a true racing game if you want to manage all the bits such as tyre pressure, gear ratios, aero, engine management etc.

      Or you can go with the stock set ups and tootle around the tracks and cause mayhem.

      There are different race classes, different race lengths.

      It is not open world like Horizon, you are restricted to race tracks.

      Still a blast though :)

  • DKPARTY on 25/08/2017 - 10:27

    Hard to go back to Forza 5's framerate. Feels so sluggish in comparison to latest Forza games.

    Still there is a crap load of content there and its free =P

    • Saiya on 25/08/2017 - 10:42

      What was Forza 5 framerate?

      • imurgod on 26/08/2017 - 00:12

        1080P @ 60FPS

    • m0nkeycheese on 25/08/2017 - 11:30

      FH3 is only 30fps

  • cheepo on 25/08/2017 - 11:30

    Actually looking forward to the indie games for once. Been meaning to try Oxenfree at some point. Hope Inside or Ori And The Blind Forest get added in the near future as they're also on the wishlist.

    Thanks for adding Cobalt - totally missed it first time it was posted.

  • iwantmoney on 26/08/2017 - 18:10

    yo, if anyones planning to jump onto bf3 once they get it through here, let me know - missed this game for way too long!

  • currentfad on 01/09/2017 - 18:05

    Forza 5 GOTY and Hydro Thunder Hurricane are free now :)

    • Nukkels on 13/09/2017 - 07:28

      Forza 5 opens in microsoft.com and then wants me to pay $70 for it - have you got a link that works for you?

      • currentfad on 16/09/2017 - 20:49

        Sorry mate just saw your post. Did you get it? Claim it from your Xbox if it doesn't work.

        • Nukkels on 16/09/2017 - 21:56

          Not sure what changed but after a second attempt, it asked me to login again and then it was showing as free.

  • mheloy on 16/09/2017 - 20:39

    Battlefield 3 says…. not available in your region.
    Any ideas?

    • currentfad on 16/09/2017 - 20:49

      Hm I just claimed it. Try claim it on your Xbox instead.

      • mheloy on 17/09/2017 - 15:44

        Thanks… just claimed it as well.

  • tarawa on 01/10/2017 - 11:33

    I got very lucky, managed to signup to xbox live gold in the last hour and claimed Battlefield 3 xbox360 just before it was gonna expire
