I should have kept playing it, I missed out on all those sweet golden skins that were carrying over to Gears 5. Ah well.

Most of them are still going on, yuo can still get Glided Kait, JD, Marcus, Scion and the golden weapons. The only thing you missed is Esports Kait and Gilded Raam.

I don't think so. I could be wrong though.

The reason why I don't think so is because the challenge for Esports Kait ends September 2nd.

but yeah, it is confusing.

Oh, XBO Games with Gold 'free'? When I saw it was free, I thought they meant actually free. Not sub required to access stuff. I only have a 360, so I don't need a constantly active sub in the first place.

Understandable. Xbox never gives out games no sub required, they're always gonna require Xbox Live Gold.

The 360 games from the sub are to keep, and I've seen several free games that didn't require gold, most recently Too Human. I just assumed they did a One game this time. :P

Really? I've never heard of any game being offered for free besides the Games with Gold. Except maybe for some special promotions but I can't remember any.

Pity, you missed some good ones. I've gotten Too Human, the Crackdown games, and I think I remember seeing something about Lost Odyssey and Prey but already owned those.

I already have the Crackdowns and I'm pretty sure Lost odyssey was offered through the Games with Gold at some point, Too Human isn't good and neither is the Original Prey tbh so I'm not miffed.

Aww man, RAAM is one of my favourite characters. I would pay for a Gilded skin of him if I could.

Even with an expired sub, you keep that one? Damn shame I didn't know when I grabbed Castlevania. My sub expired on the 15th. Might need to resub end of the month if you confirm it is a permanent game. I could play it on PC.

Yup its a permanent game just like all the others that are monthly Games with Gold. You can cancel whenever and still keep the game. Maybe you can get a free month trial or something and download it. I did the same with Too Human and Lost Odyssey. Ive had Lost Odyssey for like a year+ because of it

There is a difference between 360 and One games though, you keep the 360 games, you need the sub for One games. When you said Gears was permanent, I thought they were treating it like the 360 games, it just counted as yours and not a sub game.

the 360 games need gold to get, but not gold to play.

you aren't able to play gears 4 without gold if you got it from gwg. all of the Xbox one games from it are like that

too human is free because it legally cannot be sold, and lost odyssey they made free because it was the first game that had multiple discs to be made available digitally.

you didn't need gold to get either.
