Dust: An Elysian Tail is free through Wednesday. by Jerry Whorebach 05/12/2014, 11:31pm PDT
Sadly, the "tail" in the title is a sickening pun by a half-Korean deviantartist, not a good-hearted attempt at English by a pureblooded Japanese combat designer. So even though I always kinda wanted a copy, I didn't want one enough to risk finding my name on whatever "mailing lists" (I had to google it) this guy might run, when he's not busy inventing Jazz the Jackrabbit or spending the next twenty years obsessively scribbling slightly recoloured versions of Jazz the Jackrabbit. Getting to download the game for free alongside millions of other normosexuals seems like a pretty good deal. Of course, since Microsoft usually unlocks the next free game on the evening of the day BEFORE they're supposed to (time zones?), I'm going to wait until the 15th to redeem the 1-month free Gold code that came with my last Xbox, and thereby collect FOUR free games for however many hundreds of dollars I spent on my last Xbox. Check and mate, Windows Calendar! I'm going to let you off with a warning, Windows Chess!

The next Game with Gold will be Saints Row The Third.
