I will gladly download since I have not played it

You are in for a treat! I first played it on x360 when it came out. Just bought the telltale bundle today in the sales. Cant wait to play the whole story this time around on my XB1.

elarcadia2986d ago

I got the Telltale bundle on sale a few months ago, and used my Bing rewards points to get it. I didn't even have to spend a dollar! Thanks Microsoft. For those who haven't played the Wolf Among Us Yet, you truly are in for a treat :).

Jmanzare2987d ago

My favorite tell tale game.. Wish they made a gwg game that I don't own already

we4202987d ago

Same here. I haven't bought Game of Thrones or Tales from the Borderlands so I hope they become free soon.

christocolus2986d ago

@brokasfawk

Same here. I was going to buy it December last year but i decided to hold off.I'm so glad I waited.

This is good...but I just bought the telltale games collection in the XBL spring sale! great game to give away for free though. I loved the setting and the unique take on old fairy tale characters

jb2272987d ago

How many games were in the collection & how much did it run you? I've only played the Walking Dead games & really dug them...Wolf Among Us was the main other one that I always wanted to try, if I had an Xbox I'd be all over this one. I hear the Borderlands & Minecraft ones were good but that most of the others were kinda iffy.

FlexLuger2986d ago

@jb22

walking dead season one and two. Game of thrones ep.1-6. wolf among us and tales from borderlands. normally goes for £70...£23 in the spring sale. the only games off this bundle that I played was season 1 of walking dead and wolf among us. Ill probably play season 2 of walking dead before starting borderlands. I ll save game of thrones for last. When I saw all of them in the 'installing' page , I thought....."No way Im gonna play all of this lot this year". My backlog seems even more dense because of these sales.

I picked up the resident evil bundle (1 and 0). And binding of issac and dont starve for about £6 each aswell. Good stuff to add to the backlog, I reckon.

jb2272986d ago

@flex

That sounds like a killer deal to me...I'd be curious to try any TellTale stuff & that's a bargain price...I was buying a lot of used games last gen when I wanted to try stuff out on the cheap, but this gen there have been so many good sales on stuff I missed that I haven't set foot in a Gamestop other than the rare occasion when I want to buy something day one...beyond that I've kinda been subsiding on digital sales & red box, and it's been a lot nicer on the ol wallet....that's all gonna change this year though, there are so many great games coming out on all platforms that I'm sure every gamer is gonna hafta come outta pocket quite a bit more in 2016, and for good reason.

I have a feeling we've only seen the tip of the iceberg w/ digital sales so far, I'm thinking summer & E3 time is gonna bring out a lot of great deals...and the backlog grows ever deeper...

Jmanzare2987d ago

I bought that bund a while ago I'm pretty sure it included both seasons of twd the wolf among us the borderlands game and the game of thrones game

OC_MurphysLaw2987d ago

its a great game and one of the best of the Telltale games. while it wont be of benefit to me since I already own I gladly say great so others can play it.

JeffGUNZ2987d ago

Yeah, I always wanted to try it out but never pulled the trigger. I'll gladly download this.

DasTier2987d ago

Not interested, Telltale games are so overated.

JeffGUNZ2987d ago

It's free lol. Whether it's overrated or not, how bad could it be when it's free? Can't hurt to try it!

DasTier2987d ago (Edited 2987d ago )

Sure its free, but so were season 1 of GoT and the Walking Dead. The last Telltale game I enjoyed was the Sam & Max one, but unfortunately they are too slow paced for me and require too much time to experience. Time I would rather put into the excessively large backlog of games (as far back as the PS2) I still have too finish!

UnHoly_One2987d ago

I have to agree.

I liked Tales from the Borderlands just because it was "Borderlands", but I don't think I could play any more games like that that weren't attached to something I was already invested in.

I love Game of Thrones but I don't have the slightest urge to play that, either.

It's great for people that like them, they are just a little too "uninvolved" for me. I feel like I'm barely doing anything except going through the motions.

Games with Gold Dropping Xbox 360 Games is One Step Down a Long Road

With the recent announcement that the Games with Gold service will no longer feature Xbox 360 games, the fate of the service appears to be sealed.

I’ve been saying for ages they need to either make GWG good again, or scrap it and just go all in on Game Pass.

MadLad675d ago

They are scrapping it and going full on Gamepass lol. Right now it's the optics of how they sell the idea of paying to play online all over again.

PS+ and GWG were all just ways to make people feel like forcing them to pay to use their internet was a good thing.
Without GWG, the barrier to entry is much more expensive.

Itching for a good story? Try these narrative-driven games

Games have enormous untapped potential to tell new and compelling stories through interactivity. You won’t be stuck in a long, drawn-out cutscene in these games. These stories are told through player interaction.

Let me know when The Wolf Among Us Season 2 comes out. Till then, meh.

Tross1415d ago

The first (or I guess only) season is still very much recommended, as are the comics that I only have four deluxe editions of so far. But, yeah. A season 2 would be amazing.

gamefreaks3651414d ago

The Wolf Among Us 2 was teased at The Game Awards last December. Haven't heard anything since though.

rainslacker1414d ago

Not having Fiona in BL3 was criminal IMO. Only one line where she's even referenced, and a picture on a desk, but they didn't even give her a part.:*(

One of my favorite characters of all time, and instead of even a cameo, we get a bunch of jokes about Rhys' mustache.

Oh well. Maybe in some DLC. The reference to her was that Rhys was looking for her. Still haven't played the season pass post content DLC yet.

Bismarn1415d ago

No thanks, Forza's enough for me

Sunny123451415d ago

as good as indie stories are, i prefer the aaa titles.

HankHill1414d ago

The only game he plays is TLOU2.

MadLad1414d ago

He's the sort of guy who only appreciates something that has Sony on the box. Just check his comments.
If Playstation starts really pushing indie development though, his tune will change.

littletad1518d ago

Damn, I almost never see a price drop on Fable Anniversary, so free is even better. Looks like the rest of the games will be crap though.

Donnie811518d ago

Yeah no doubt. Great game though still

Yosemite1518d ago

I think Fable is in the Xbox Game Pass catalog.

Chris121518d ago

Project Cars 2 is a great game, as is Fable. Great month so far!

gamer78041518d ago

decent games, but hoping for one at least new outstanding game, especially during these times.

TKCMuzzer1517d ago (Edited 1517d ago )

Eh? I think this is why people say modern gamers have an 'entitled' tag attached to them.
So because there are people dying all over the world and people are having to stay at home, you should get better stuff. Just be happy 'during these times' you have your health, some people won't even have the luxury to stay at home, let alone 'free' games on a console games subscription.

gamer78041517d ago

Wow why the hate, no crime in hoping for something more that I’m interested in. I’ve been gaming for a long long time. Since the sears Machine, then Apple 2 pcs, then my first Gaming only console the Atari 2600 I washed cars to get.

Nitrox1517d ago

“Hoping” is not entitlement.
Why the high horse, bro?

What we really need ‘during these times’ is a little positivity.

netpal1517d ago

I think great games are not on the primary list of what we need need 'in these times'

gamer78041517d ago

Need? Of course not, but they would be greatly appreciated, they not only help pass the time indoors but they help people relieve some stress and get their mind off, if only for a while, what is going in their lives possibly to friends, loved ones or their community.

FloydianAndroid1518d ago (Edited 1518d ago )

I’m an xbox guy for the most part, but you can’t be serious that project cars is a great game. Have you played horizon 4? If not get on that......also, I think it’s clear that the quality content is going to gamepass and not games with gold.

I mean fable is a great game, but not a quality games with gold game when it’s already on game pass. I kind of thought Microsoft would step up with all that’s going on and deliver hits, but unless they blow me away with the other two games later today, I’m very underwhelmed by this.

hiawa231518d ago

I love FH4, but that doesn't mean PC2 is not good.

FloydianAndroid1518d ago

fair enough, maybe it just wasn’t for me. I like do ryse and almost no one else did lol so I guess people are just different l

Chris121518d ago

I really liked Ryse too, and FH4 is my favourite ever driving game, but PC2 is decent and scored 84 on Metacritic. Its also enhanced for the X

Pickledpepper1518d ago

I really like ryse as well, so now there is 2 of us lol

Hyperstrada1517d ago

i like PC2 better then FH4 , but i play with a wheel, not sure if PC2 is any fun with a gamepad?

nowitzki20041517d ago

I like them both. Forza is more fun, but PC2 feels more like a sim racer.

hiawa231518d ago

Been waiting for PC2 to go free. I am downloading for the X1X. Hoping it is on the enhanced list.
