Wow @ the insecure nerd that thinks this thread was created to "combat" Psn+. That's some real weak stuff right there. I don't think anyone here beside you gives a fuck about Psn+, we are here to see the free stuff we can get. Is that too hard to believe?
I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.
I didn't feel it was thread worthy so I'll ask it here: Has the "Sales App" been removed? I mean, we still have several past sales and we're getting these new sales every day until 2013 but where is the real Sales App!? I was looking for it earlier today and it's nowhere to be found. I began to think I made it up but the data is still there on my HDD (including a picture of the App). It was pretty cool getting access to exclusive sales and unlocking something by buying the item before it. What happened? Will it be back? Was it just not popular?

Feel free to ban me if it makes you feel vindicated. I don't really post here all that often anyway. I mean no offense, but I believe as a mod you should really have a tougher skin though as my post was warnable at best. If anyone should be offended it's me given the fact that you assumed I lack knowledge about PS+. I made no personal references to anybody, just questioned the point of the thread.
As for your points, of course the items on PS+ are rented (which I am quite aware of), and I don't even pay for it since my roommate has it and I play mostly on PC; however, last time I checked, there is plenty of stuff free on the regular PSN. Nobody posts that stuff because there's really no need for it since it's easily located by searching for free stuff. Better yet, as far as borrowing stuff from a friend, you can download it off the network by attaching your friend's id to your PS3 (though sadly this has been reduced to two PS3's as far as I'm aware - it used to be five).
Coincidentally, if people cared so much about free stuff, why has this thread only emerged within the last three days. Was there never a need in the entire life of the 360? 7-8 years? Why is it being updated every week? Those are the things that made me believe this was a respone to the PS+ thread that is updated every week. I believe that is a reasonable conclusion, if not, my bad.
How do you breathe again?
The 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air is free DLC in Forza Horizon plus there will be more free DLC for the game in January.

Yeah, that was a good laugh...total weaksauce...and hey, remember that guy that responded with personal attacks. What was his name again? Oh yeah...toad something...

| neerdowell said: Seriously... What is the point of this? I don't mean to turn this into an XBL vs. PSN+; however, I cannot see any other reasonable justification for this thread, in which case, it is a wholly unfair comparison. With PSN+ there are items released every week, so it makes sense to have a thread that keeps people up to date with the changes. This thread lists a culmination of years worth of stuff (to the best of my knowledge, not really knowledgable on XBL content), seemingly in a manner to make XBL comparable in value to PSN+. If you want XBL to stand up to PSN+ then it should do so on its own merits. The fact that this thread exists demonstrates the questionable value of XBL. You should not have to stretch so far to find enough content to combat what PSN+ has released in such a short period of time. This thread even lists items that are available to the silver account (the PSN+ thread doesn't list content that is free to all users) This thread demonstrates that XBL has become an expense that users have to form an argument to justify the value of. Not a good thing for the leading online service. |
as next step you should post in the halo 4 thread, i'm sure this thread was only made to combat the exclusive ps3 games of this year and not because people owning a 360 could be interested in that stuff they find in the h4 thread.

Was the other thread made in a similar format to the PS3 exclusives thread? Similar title? Updated weekly? The only reason I came into this thread was because the title seemed similar to the PSN+ thread and it hinted at a response thread. When there were other similarities I assumed that my assumption was correct.
I'll admit, I have no interest in free stuff on XBL. I also have no interest to go check out a Halo 4 thread since there seems no indication that it is a response thread. Your suggestion will be duly noted though and fully considered. You have my thanks sir, you have been most helpful.

@ bolded
That's exactly what I wrote. Warn/Ban worthy of course in reconsideration of your previous mod history. Therefore in your case it could've been a warning.
Now great if you can sort by free stuff on PSN, but that's not possible as far as I'm aware on XBL, so this thread is actually useful.
Also this is NOT the first thread on free XBL stuff. The Microsoft fan base on VGC is just not that big to warrant a thread that is constantly being updated and running for several years.

why do you even think about similarities of both threads? if i read something in a thread which inspires me for another thread it will probably also look similiar but not to combat the other thread omfg...
there is a thread about the winter sales on xbox live right now, shall i condemn the op now because we already have a steam sales thread for months? wtf? just because of this xbox live sales thread i got mark of the ninja and fez and will get trials evolotion tomorrow...

I used that theme for a while it wasn't that great. The theme I'm currently using is probably also a US exclusive its a Dr Pepper/Thor theme which was also free.
