Is the 360 TR Gold Free game the same game that's on XBO/PS4?


added - what a fun game. no wonder it was rated so high. the graphics on the 360 are still excellent for this one. glad it was free or i would have never tried it. That's 2 games now from XBL GOLD that I've really liked whereas before I wouldn't even bother with.

Dragon Age Inquisition is Free from March 10-16 for XBL Gold members.

I'll definitely give it a try. The free games they've offered have been big hits for me so far. Games I would have never even bothered buying.


Just finished offline Sniper Elite 3. Fun game but way short. They should have added like 5 more levels. Can't complain for $10.

Thanks for the tip, Inu. I'm not an RPG guy, but DA:I has received such overwhelming praise that I must give it a try.

Rayman Legends is free for GOLD on XBL right now (or at least it was last night). Absolutely fantastic game if you haven't played it. Now is the time.

I actually had the opposite reaction to Pool Nation. Mind you I only messed around in practice mode but I was unimpressed with the sound effects or lack thereof and if it makes any sense there was no weight to the balls. Maybe I need to give it more of a chance.

Same with me, sounds effects of the balls hitting and pocketing are bad and the frame rate seems off for me, Pure Pool is a much better game on the One.

I agree. Pure Pool feels right physics wise. I was underwhelmed with Pool Nation after playing Pure Pool for the last month. Nation feels more arcady with a trick shot mod, etc. and it's much easier because you can switch to the overhead view in pool nation as well.

Does Pool Nation take what seems forever to load up initially for everyone else?
