Videogamer reports THQ has confirmed that Frontlines: Fuel of War, which is released across Europe on Friday, will support multiplayer games of up to 50 players on Xbox 360 - 64 for PC gamers. This makes it the first next-generation console title to offer such a large player count in online games.
The Xbox 360 version will launch with 90 dedicated multiplayer servers across Europe and North America, with one map, Village, offering support for the full 50 players. As more dedicated servers are brought online, additional maps will be opened up for 50-player games.
Xbox Live Games with Gold users can snag these two games for free. They weren't announced by Microsoft but appear to show as free with Xbox Live Gold.
If you're getting something through or because of a paid subscription service -
ITS. NOT. FREE.
Stop using that word...
360 and original xbox games are free. You can download them and play them free on 360 and xbox one offline.
Mx unleashed has been free to gold for ages for some reason, front lines is a good freebie it's not advertised.
Both games are free to keep in xbox digi library. No subsxription required to play these games once there added. There yours to keep

LOL what a random revisit. I remember liking the demo for this game, but never bothered buying it.
Completely forgot about this game. Remember being hyped about it... probably not that hyped about it seeing as how i never bought it amd forgot about it haha
Wasn't a bad game. Clunky, but enjoyable. I still remember one of the loading screen captions; real poignant and deep...

Darksiders, Red Faction, MX vs. ATV, Titan Quest, Supreme Commander, Frontlines, Stuntman, Juiced, Full Spectrum Warrior, Destroy All Humans and much more will enrich the Nordic Games portfolio
Wants Gamers Input on How to Move Forward
Nice to see they are looking for input from the people that will either buy the games or not.
Darksiders 3 needs to be more like 1. Darksiders 2 was a very deluded experience in order to be longer.
And please hire Madureira as the creative director of the game please! His art made the game alive. If the art style changes the whole game will be a piece of generic crap.
i want you to take Geo-Mod and turn that up 11 i wanna see 50 story building fall and big beautiful towers come crashing down. i want a next gen destruction physics engine.
oh so thats how they have 50 player games now, i guess microsoft is allowing this now since they heard about Resistance 2, hahahhahahaha
until they bring in some form of group voice chat, social gaming is near impossible with anything more than 12 players
I'll be renting this game to see if THQ didn't solely go for flash
well at least they are going with dedicated servers, which should remove the lag that plague other games.
BABOON SH!TE
Still not 60 players online and across all maps !!
keep playin catch up Xbot Sucka's !!
