Complete List of FREE Xbox LIVE Marketplace Downloads!
Published by: forahobby on Tuesday, August 14, 2007

The guys over at Xbox 360 Rally have done a fantastic job and gone to all the effort of writing up a Complete List of FREE Xbox 360 Live Marketplace Downloads..

Kudo's must go to the guys for putting in such a great effort..
Please remember that this is a US-based list! If you live in, say, Canada or the EU and see items on here that are region specific.

The Xbox LIVE Marketplace is a true cornucopia of stuff. Whether it be classic arcade games like Paperboy, Time Pilot and Contra, or downloadable content for your favorite games, like Santa Claus outfits for Saints Row and expansions for Oblivion, Xbox LIVE is chock full o’ stuff for just about everyone. If you have the MS Points, you can open the door to all the world’s delight and joy.

But what if you’re broke? Are you just left outside in the snow, to stare in the window from behind the bushes to see all the joyous boys and girls playing with their horse armor and their extra Crackdown skins? Of course not! There’s stuff for you, too, cheap ass!

In fact, there is a LOT of free stuff for you. Whether it be extra content for your favorite game, or the most worthless of things (*coughgamerpicscough*), there is a surprisingly large amount of free stuff for your downloading delight on Xbox LIVE.

    Published by: forahobby on Sunday, February 25, 2007

    Microsoft launches next wave of Platinum Hits so gamers can choose from more great games at new low prices.

    From gamers looking for fun with the family — such as volleying with tennis pros— to those who want hardcore action — such as leading an elite Ghost Recon squad equipped with cutting-edge weapons and communications systems — anyone in search of a great game experience can find a blockbuster title with Platinum Hits for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system. On the heels of the expanded Platinum Hits launch in Europe earlier this month, Microsoft Corp. today announced that the next round of titles in the Xbox 360 Platinum Hits library will be available March 16 in North America, Latin America, Japan and the Asia Pacific region.

    Next month’s Platinum Hits releases include critically acclaimed games from the industry’s leading publishers, including Activision Publishing Inc.’s “Call of Duty 2,” Electronic Arts Inc.’s “EA SPORTS™ Fight Night Round 3,” Ubisoft Entertainment’s “Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter” and 2K Sport’s “Top Spin 2.” This lineup of Platinum Hits represents some of the best high-definition titles available on Xbox 360 at an appealing price.

    Next month’s Platinum Hits release, starting at an estimated retail price of $29.99 (U.S.), will include the following titles in the Americas:

    - “Battlefield 2: Modern Combat™” (Electronic Arts)
    - “Burnout Revenge” (Electronic Arts)- “Call of Duty 2” (Activision)
    - “Dead or Alive 4” (TECMO Inc.)
    - “Fight Night Round 3” (Electronic Arts)
    - “Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter” (Ubisoft)
    - “Top Spin 2” (2K Sports)
    - “Rockstar Games presents Table Tennis” (Rockstar Games)

    In Japan the Platinum Hits titles listed below will be available in March for 2,800 yen:

    - “Battlefield 2: Modern Combat (Electronic Arts)
    - “Burnout Revenge” (Electronic Arts)
    - “Chrome Hounds” (Sega Corp.)
    - “Perfect Dark Zero” (Microsoft Game Studios)

    In the Asia Pacific region these new Platinum Hits titles will be available. New pricing for these games will vary slightly by region:

    - “Dead or Alive 4” (TECMO)
    - “N3: Ninety-Nine Nights” (Microsoft Game Studios)
    - “Project Gotham Racing® 3” (Microsoft Game Studios)
    - “Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter” (Ubisoft)

    Gamers throughout Europe are able to pick up the following new Platinum Hits titles, launched earlier this month, for an estimated retail price of 29.99 euros:

    - “Call of Duty 2” (Activision)
    - “Dead or Alive 4” (TECMO)
    - “Project Gotham Racing 3” (Microsoft Game Studios)
    - “Rockstar Games presents Table Tennis” (Rockstar Games)
    - “Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter” (Ubisoft)
    - “Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend” (Eidos Interactive Ltd.)

    “Platinum Hits not only lets gamers enjoy a broad portfolio of titles at an amazing price,” said Jeff Bell, corporate vice president of Global Marketing for the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft. “It also ensures that existing and new gamers alike can get the most from their Xbox 360 by owning a great library of blockbuster hits. So if you missed playing a game the first time around, now there is a great reason to pick it up.”

    The Xbox 360 Platinum Hits program, which launched worldwide last fall, gives people access to great games at a great value. And now with more than 10.4 million Xbox 360 consoles in living rooms around the world, there will be plenty of new console owners eager to jump into the best-selling Xbox 360 games. In fact, the Xbox and Xbox 360 Platinum Hits program accounts for more than 16.3 million games sold worldwide. A full list of Platinum Hits titles available in the U.S., Europe and Japan is available online at http://www.xbox.com/platinumhits
