For the last few months, Xbox Live’s Games With Gold initiative has really stepped up its offerings- Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Valiant Hearts, Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, The Walking Dead, and Metro are just some excellent games that have been put up on the service for Xbox One owners.
Which makes this month’s offering so much worse by comparison.
First, the silver lining- with the official release of the Backwards Compatibility initiative for the Xbox One starting this month, Xbox Live Gold members will get four games every month- the two Xbox One games that they usually get, plus two more games, since all Games with Gold Xbox 360 games will be backwards compatible on the Xbox One.
Now for the actual lineup of games this month. It’s pretty bad, so brace yourself:
- Pneuma: Breath of Life (Xbox One)
- Knight Squad (Xbox One)
- DiRT 3 (Xbox 360)
- Dungeon Siege III (Xbox 360)
I guess we had to have an off month eventually. Hopefully PS+’s Instant Game Collection does not disappoint this month.
