Assassin's Creed 2 next in Xbox free games lineup

4.4
Microsoft's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb confirmed this morning that Assassin's Creed 2 is the next free title in the Xbox "Games With Gold" Program. That means the Italiano assassino romp will be available for all those gratis stabs and requiescat en paces on July 16.

Announced during Microsoft's E3 press conference, the "Games with Gold" program highlighted Assassin's Creed 2 and Halo 3 on stage. After a little clarification, it turned out those two titles wouldn't be the first two games due in July. Defense Grid: The Awakening is currently free, with Ezio's exploits up next. There is no announced window for Halo 3 going free at this time.

What a shame, they put some garbage tower defense game up for the first two weeks and it is likely Halo 3 now won't be free in the Games With Gold program. I was really hoping to have a flood of players for a few weeks on Halo 3.

moejohnson6 am i the only one who remembers that they posted that halo and assassins creed were Julys. free games so wtf is with this defense grid ****.


They mentioned the games, but they claim that they didn't say which month. Acorrding to them, they could release them in Dec. And it would be 100% correctly accurate date wise.

They noticed though. All the hate they got because of that game. It's why they put AC2 out, I guarantee it.


I was thinking that too.

Aggie This is actually a good game. I wish they would have released AC3 though...


Yeah, AC3 would of been better.


Trust me. Assassin's Creed 2 is actually a much better game than Assassin's Creed 3. It sets up the story for the rest of the series and has an amazing story line.
