I don;t have a gold account and I was able to redeem it on the marketplace.

 

I don't know if this is an error or if it is meant to be free for everyone. Either way, get it while you can. :)

Isn't GwG open for all current and past members of XBL? That'll be why you got it, no?

 

 

Not sure. you might be right. All I know is that I don;t have a Gold membership and I was able to redeem this.

 

Deadlight isn't available for free to non-Gold members.

 

Whatever. Either way, it's a cool freebie for all :)

Deadlight won't show up free until the 15th. It's one game at a time unlike PS+ where it's all at once.

 

Split topic

 

Splitting this back to its own topic. It may be a pricing mistake when the game was added to GwG, so it is indeed free for all but may not stay that way. If you want it, grab it quick :p Will merge back with the GwG topic if they fix it.

 

Topic re-merged

 

They fixed it

Deadlight is an awesome game and in a way i think influenced The Last of Us...the main character and many of the themes are very similar i found. Really want to replay it but don't have a 360 anymore and it's like $15 on Steam which is too much for a totally redundant replay :)

 

So for anyone with a 360, this is a good month for Games with Gold!

On a side note they're having a sale atm, 360 gets large price cuts on Batman.  Don't know if there's any sale for XB1 content.

 

Yep forgot to mention that, nothing for X1 this week though. Also, if you have a gaming PC skip Gotham City Imposters on 360. It's F2P on Steam (Y)

 

All deals valid until 21st April.

    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram by Aditya Tiwari Meta announced that its Instagram for TV app has arrived on Samsung TVs in the US as part of its latest expansion, giving users one more way to scroll through Reels. The social media giant often comes under scrutiny for the "addictiveness" of its features, which leads people to spend excessive time on the platform. Interestingly, Instagram boss Adam Mosseri described spending 16 hours on the platform as "problematic use" but not "clinical addiction." Mosseri also compared scrolling on Instagram to binge-watching a show on Netflix. Instagram for TV is now available on Samsung TV models released in 2020 or later. The app is already available on Amazon Fire TV and Google TV in the US, which together account for the majority of connected TV devices. The company said it will test several new features to improve the living room and family experience while using Instagram on the big screen. Watching vertical videos on a big screen isn't something many would be excited about. Probably that's why Meta is testing a dedicated home for horizontal videos. Creators will get the opportunity to design content for TV screens and get more ways to reach audiences, according to Meta. If you found an interesting Reel while doomscrolling on your phone, you'll be able to cast it to your TV. The feature is available for testing on Instagram for TV on Google TV and Amazon Fire TV, and it will also support videos from the Saved tab. Instagram for TV will be testing Channels organized around user interests, across genres such as comedy and sports, as well as content from favorite creators. Moreover, you can watch Stories on your TV. While Instagram is known for short-form videos, it's knocking on more doors to keep the audience hooked. The company said it's exploring new content formats for the big screen, including long-form creator content to cover topics in detail, episodic series to build suspense across multiple episodes, and creator live sessions on TV. All of the new updates put Instagram in competition with established giants like YouTube (and Netflix), which already have a robust presence on the big screen. In recent updates, Instagram added the ability to write an individual caption for each carousel image, manually re-order posts, and a paid version of the app.
    • I know RAM and storage prices are high right now, but I think it would have been better to have 1TB as the base level storage, especially as it's supposed to be for gaming. Plus a 2.5gbe ethernet port rather than only 1gbe.
    • I have installed the debloated version of Windows 11 25H2 Pro. I obtained the apps from store.rg-adguard.net. The size of the Photos app window is quite problematic for me; it consistently displays in a 16:9 aspect ratio, resembling a movie theatre screen, and cant remeber its last size and position. The Snipping Tool cannot capture the taskbar. When I select "Window" in capture mode, it allows me to capture menus or individual windows, but I am unable to capture just the taskbar. This functionality was available in version 24! I am on the same version numbers (latesst).
    • I'm already seeing my steam library, still swallowing the 16 Gb of RAM, then looking at the SD storage expansion and saying "what?".
