GAMES FOR GOLD: September 2013: Free Magic 2013 and Rainbow Six Vegas

 

Xbox Live Gold subscribers can download Magic 2013 and Rainbow Six Vegas for free during two separate, two-week spans this month as the latest games in the Games With Gold promotion.

Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 can be had for free now through September 15, at which point it will return to its regular price of $9.99. (Xbox Live now uses real-world currency in lieu of Microsoft Points). Magic 2013 while it's no longer the most current version of the game available -- Magic 2014 was released in June -- it's still an accessible way to get into Magic.

Once the Magic 2013 deal runs its course, Rainbow Six Vegas will be free to Xbox Live Gold members starting on September 16. (Gamers in South America will instead get Shadowrun for free). Vegas' regular price of $19.99 will return at the end of the month. Although it's now almost seven years old, Vegas remains a strong game with an entertaining cooperative multiplayer mode in Terrorist Hunt.

By starting a download on either game, it will be yours forever regardless of your status as an Xbox Live Gold subscriber, making it a nice way for existing subscribers to expand their game libraries for free.

I guess ONE out of TWO is ok I guess Magic: 2013 is pretty New by the digital card game standard, but Rainbow 6 Vegas Well.......Not so fresh Microsoft your Free Games library needs work. But hell to it 2 great games for free especially if you don't own them yet, like for me Mr. Mike Magic: 2013 was a game I wanted to purchase Now I don't have to..
