it actually says
"Each participating Xbox 360 game (selected by Xbox) available for free download from Xbox Store only during specified half-month window" which means that they they will be available to purchase as a free download between those dates,whereas the wording on the XB1 version is completely different,it honestly sounds as if they have to be downloaded to your system during the dates,i did tweet Major Nelson to get some clarification but didn't get a reply,ive also tweeted Acey Bongos to see if i can get a definitive answer

Hmm, i guess if the wording is different it could actually be different. I wish they would just tell us, this waiting game isn't my thing

It would be in Microsofts interest to allow 360 subscribers to add Xbox 1 games to their account as it will give greater incentive for those 360 owners to upgrade to Xbox 1 rather than PS4.

This months Xbox One GWG title won't be 'free' until the system update is released. Quote:
they'll come after the next system update- we'll let you know as soon as they're set.
Jeff Rubenstein said on twitterAnyone else think we'll have to wait until E3? |

If you don't yet have an Xbox One, but do have a 360, you could still just go to Xbox.com and buy the current free game via there. Just like how PS+ subscribers can go to the PSN Store and buy the free games from there, even if they don't yet have a PS4. |

I would assume you already can.

I don't think that is possible. Any time I go to Xbox.com to just check out the prices of the X1 digital games it sends me to the US store.

Yeah, sounds like a website issue - maybe it's redirecting you because of broken geolocating or something.

Something has gone wrong with my Games for Gold because although it is saying in my games and apps that they are ready to download when I go to the store it says Get it FREE. It's like the files that are stored on my account are corrupt.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to get them working?

Will need to give it another go then.
Shame I own both X1 games already. Hopefully this is the high standard going forward as both are excellent. |

For anyone who has not received the update yet go to system settings & update manually.

Found no hub on xboxone after doing update but was able to find Max on the website ok, and when searching it only brings up the 360 version of Spartan, but thankfully that screen has a button that says "also on xbox one - learn more". Choosing that got the download queued
![]() Popped into My Apps and Games and are downloading now! |

Last chance for 360 owners to get Dark Souls today. From tomorrow, Charlie Murder and Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition will be available for free.
