Picked up a bundle and I'm liking that I can download free games from XBL (especially for the kiddies). Aside from the 2 "games with gold" a month, I know there are a lot of free downloadable games too, but they're not easy to find. The only thing I can find with google is: http://www.extremetech.com/gaming/192577-the-best-free-games-on-xbox-one which links directly to the games - and they're awesome. Where's a comprehensive list or how can I go about finding more?

No, never had an Xbox 360.

There are 4 games with gold games every month. Two for XB1 only and two for the Xbox 360 which will also work on the XB1 if you want them.

^ aware of that (though the 360 games seem to download to XB 360 only - Dirt 3 for example), looking for others. Thx.

^ thx got 1 more real full game there. I suppose MS doesn't really want to publish an all-free-games page.

MS and Sony's online stores are both horrible. I let MS know every time they send me a survey lol.

If you want to buy cheap keys or a gold membership cdkeys and gamedealdaily are worth a look. cdkeys will robo call your billing number to confirm the purchase so you want to be at that phone when you order. I think they sell the cheaper keys they get from foreign countries.

No that's the thing, 360 games that you get for GWG you CAN download to your xbox1 and play them. You have to do this through the website xbox.com or on your 360 console.

I claimed Dirt3 and Dungeon Siege 3 today on xbox.com and it queued up the download for my xb1. Installed them and they play fine. It downloads to both consoles not just the 360. I only own and xb1 and downloaded the 360 games fine.

When I tried to purchase from cdkeys it lit up the fraud alert on my credit card so at that point I figured the savings wasn't worth the risk.

I've bought things from CDKeys with no hassle. Some credit card companies are overly protective even for legit sites.

If you get EA Access, there's a bunch of goodies in their vault these days :)
