Call of Cthulhu, the official videogame inspired by Chaosium's classic pen and paper RPG, brings you deep into a world of creeping madness and shrouded Old Gods within Lovecraft's iconic universe. It's 1924, Private Investigator Pierce is sent to look into the tragic death of the Hawkins family on the isolated Darkwater Island. Soon enough, Pierce is pulled into a terrifying world of conspiracies, cultists, and cosmic horrors. Nothing is as it seems. Sanity is an irregular bedfellow, all too often replaced by whisperings in the dark. Strange creatures, weird science, and sinister cults dominate the Cthulhu Mythos, intent on realizing their mad schemes to bring about the end of everything.
In February on Xbox One, race across a legendary mountain course in TT Isle of Man and then dive deep into the depths of Lovecraftian horror in Call of Cthulhu. On Xbox 360, and Xbox One via Backward Compatibility, enjoy a fresh spin on a beloved franchise in Fable Heroes then play an all-time classic in Star Wars Battlefront.
I thought BF was already offered on gold..... Or was that BF2?
As for the others, I been wanting to play TT and CoC so I'm good with these.
Call of Cthulhu is pretty good. I got the plat on ps4 so I’m not downloading. Don’t care about the others.

It's 2019, and H.P. Lovecraft has won. Cosmic horror, alien gods, and mind-breaking revelations of forbidden knowledge are no longer obscure tropes of weird fiction: they have come to dominate how horror is presented in video games.
But horror is much bigger than Lovecraft. And games would be better off if they focused on different sorts of horror for a while.
Do we have a lot of good Lovecraft games lately? If not, then there is no reason to not have more.
