So Microsoft have been adding games that were only able to buy from xbox.com to microsoft.com, some of these are also free with Xbox Live Gold in Australia but reddit found these on Microsoft Japan free without Xbox Live Gold needed.

  • Does the original destroy all humans count for the Microsoft rewards quest?

  • +1

    There's a cartoon based on Costume Quest on Amazon Prime and it's not that bad for a morning kids show. I didn't laugh at the jokes but if you have kids they might like it.

  • Stacking says 14.95 AUD after clicking purchase from the Japanese site. Any way to get around this?

    • Looks like they took that one down.

        Shows free for me at the time of posting this.

  • Seem Destroy All Humans! didn't add to my library even it said free.

    I don't have Xbox One but I have no problem with other xbox games added to my library.

    • I think original Xbox titles are only playable on Xbox one.

      • I think original Xbox titles are only playable on Xbox one.

        Yes but it should still add to my library but it won't, is it they have changed?

        • Doesn’t work for me either. I click install on Xbox one but never goes to install.

          Costume Quest worked tho

          • @Twisty:

            I click install on Xbox one but never goes to install.

            Doesn't work if don't own a Xbox one.

            Doesn't have this problem with other Xbox one free game.

        • This is what I thought. I don’t have an Xbox one but add games to my library, this game didn’t work.

            @mapax: Finally got it working. It showed up on my Xbox one library after a reset

            • @Twisty: Nice. I’ll try on my pc later and hopefully it works.

            • @Twisty: How did you get it to work? I keep trying to purchase Destroy all Humans bt it just keeps going back to asking if i want to purchase again.

              • @hazzad: The game doesn't show up in my library and if I click on the jp link it doesn't look I own the game, however if I go to the Aus store it now says that I own it.

                • @mapax: Same ready to install from Aussie site

                • @mapax: Thanks mate. Yep that seems to have done the trick. Can now see it as owned in Aus store. Some nice finds.

                  • @hazzad:

                    Can now see it as owned in Aus store

                    From where you saw that?

                    I checked vs browser still didn't show up even ready to install on device.

              • @hazzad: I just went onto my Xbox one and it was in the ready to download games after I reboot my Xbox

    Thanks Op Grabbed Juju & Costume Quest already had Destroy all humans missed out on Stacking pity! Free is Free.

  • +1

    Added thanks. I don't have an XB1, only XB360, but maybe one day…

    Pity they don't work considering what they were designed for.

    Ikaruga is also free on the Argetenian store.

    https://www.microsoft.com/es-AR/p/ikaruga/bz8zv7r2j95r?rtc=1…

    • Possible to add via PC?

  • +1

    Thanks Moo Grabbed Ikaruga makes up for missing out on Stacking.

  • +1

    Already bought DAH (now double pissed since it was on GWG a while back too), but snagged Juju, Stacking, Costume, and Ika-(profanity)-ruga, so that and a couple freebie Domino's makes for a good value day.

    • Did you manage to get Stacking when you commented or back when the deal was posted?

      • Yeah, early on in the day, tried on an alt and it says it's free but then tries to charge me 15…admittedly I didn't bother to do the region swap though since the others worked and I had no interest in the game anyway, could be worth a whack?

    Sensible world of soccer - free via Korean store.

    Ikaruga - free in Argentinian store.

    • You beauty! I missed out on Soccer when it was on Gold by a day because I forgot they swap midway and I went to contact support but they were busy and not taking messages or something at the time because Corona and I never bothered to try again, brilliant.

    Nice find!!

    Thanks Op and others who keep finding awesome link :)

  • how do you add to account keep getting this message "Please try again There was a problem on the server side. It may be solved after a while."

    Got Destory of all Humans thank you.
    Now if I like it, ill buy the new one!
    Just went to Japanese store to get it

  • Guys, just a note that you DON'T need an account in the non-Aus store. It works fine with your regular microsoft account.
    Just click the links :-)

  • Destroy all humans said ¥2,700 now and it is not "ready to install" in my AU store.

    • Same here. Now asking $29.95 when I click the link despite it saying Free on the page

      • Just checked again in my AUS store it said "install on my devices" now.

        • Says Free on Japan store. Click Link. Still asks for $29.95

  • Stacking is now showing as 1650 Yen, translated to 30 bucks when it hit my credit card. I picked up SWOS and Ikaruga for free (I hope! Didn't get the familiar credit card screen)

    Edit: pretty sure I purchased SWOS OK, but for some reason it's not appearing in my library? Anyone else have the problem?
