I believe I got rid of my 360 before GWG even began in earnest, which is what made me confused! My current theory is that my brother logged onto his account on the 360 I'd given him, got Reach, and gameshared immediately in case I'd ever get an Xbox again. A smart man!

You could have gotten the games via the Xbox live website? :P
It's what I do every time Games with Gold games come out, then after 6+ months I let all the games in que download.

By this point my Gold would've expired! I hadn't even thought about my Xbox account in several years by the time Reach was free. When I asked him, my brother was pretty sure he just did a game share and didn't remember it. Either way. I'm not complaining!



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

Next up, Bioshock Collection... I haven't completed ANY of those games.

Lucky! I love the first two games. Man, Bioshock was something special in 2007! What a pleasant surprise it was. 

 

Bioshock could be the jewel of last generation. 

 

Due to art style and gameplay, the games hold very well. You wouldn't feel one of them is 10 years old.

 

Enjoy the wonderful ride.

Aaaaaand I'm done. Woo! What a ride!

Didn't end on the highest note storywise but I had a damn good time. I imagine it would have been better with 4 player co-op a great idea but the same thing that kinda drug down Gears 3 for me. Best month of gaming I can remember. Can't wait until Halo 6!

Very nice. Completed both Bioshock and Bioshock 2 (including Minerva's Den DLC) not too long ago and they were remastered quite well.
Fantastic games. Only have Bioshock Infinite left to beat (again).
Especially Infinite looks gorgeous. Easily a game that could've been current gen (like Halo 4).

Halo and Bioshock, two of the best story-driven 1st person shooters. I just recently completed Bioshock 1&2 again, such great games. I played through Infinite 3-4 times on 360 so I won't be playing it again for a while but it's one of my all-time favorite games. 

My Playstation friend made a fine choice and picked up X1X and Master Chief Collection so we've been playing through campaigns lately. Last night we played Halo 3 on legendary difficulty in one sitting :) Couple of days ago Halo 4 on heroic. Halo is so much better in co-op.

I bought the original on day one and my save data corrupted. Then, I restarted it and got pretty much to the end and got lost. I had no idea where to go and then, after a while just started playing something else. Iwas enjoying it, though.

 

I skipped the second because people said it was just the first game with multiplayer tacked on (which I now understand was a lie).

 

Never played Infinite since I never finished the first two and I really wasn't a fan of games with the first person perspective.

 

I don't know what changed but now, I'm excited about the idea. I have a ton of first person games that I either didn't play or forced myself to play. The idea of them have me excited! I got the Bioshock Collection for like $15 back in November. I'll probably dive in on Sunday.



Nothing beats the first... and good luck to you... I left the franchise with Bungie. Great games for sure though.
