Free Gold on Xbox Live

Gratis online gaming for one week in September

Posted by Staff
A Microsoft Xbox 360 demands to be hooked up to the rest of the world, such is the fabulous service provided by Xbox Live. What with all those like-minded gamers online, playing all those Live-enabled titles, and top quality downloadable Live Arcade retro goodies available, the ol’ broadband connection is a must.

In a fit of generosity – and maybe to rub Sony’s nose in its self-made pile of poo – the hierarchy at MS has deemed fit to give European gamers a week of free Xbox Live membership. Golly! All you need is to be connected in all the right places come the early hours of September 20 to see what’s at your – and the world’s – fingertips. Gamers can enjoy free access to the service until just a minute before midnight on the 29th. Gee! Current Silver subscribers will be upgraded to Gold membership for the same period.

In addition to the opportunity for multiplayer gameplay, there’s also a packed schedule of activities taking place during the week, such as the Halo 2 Winning Weekend, Mystery Gamer, and the PGR3 Developer Showdown. There are also newcomers nights promised, and prizes to be won.

Time to get connected, we reckon...

Free Live Gold month! Sound like a good idea if you want people to invest in the service further.

If its well advertised it should work okay. Keep watching Sony.
