Hitman Absolution and Deadlight join Games with Gold

4.7

Whether you'd prefer to gingerly hop your way through the decrepit ruins of humanity or dispatch targets with the cold, remorseless professionalism of a trained killer, Microsoft's Games With Gold promotion has something for you.

Come April 1, Hitman: Absolution will be available as a free download for all Xbox Live Gold members. Our review awarded Hitman: Absolution 4 of 5 stars, and said that while it has minor flaws, the grim gameplay and glee of assassinating a difficult target overrides any technical issues. Hitman: Absolution will only be available for free until April 16, at which time it will be replaced by Deadlight. This post-apocalyptic platformer, developed by Tequila Works, received 3 of 5 stars in our review. While Jess found certain gameplay elements frustrating, she fell for Deadlight's art design and meticulous world building, and enjoyed the experience overall.

As with all Games With Gold offerings, the only requisite for downloading the above games is an active Xbox Live Gold membership. Full details on how to enroll in Xbox Live Gold can be found on the Xbox website.

OMG, tell me about it bro, i just bloody purchased hitman from game, brand new for 7. Not much but still.

What i want to know is why microsoft have to be jewish about what games they put out for free, i mean look at how many games the psn give out for being a ps+ member, they are fairly new games too!
I have always been a xbox fan but i believe they are currently on Titanic - a sinking ship, and the playstation network seems to be the iceberg...

There are strings attaches. Ex: you must be subscribed to ps+ to be able to play the game.
With xbox you can keep it without gold

Who honestly has a 360 without gold?

Well I thought I would answer your question.I have a xbox 360 without gold.I had played for gold for many years but tend not to use it a lot anymore so decided not to buy gold.

I've been wanting to try out Hitman for a while now. I remember playing it on the original xbox and it would be nice to revisit it.

I played a really old Hitman game and it was tons of fun so definitely giving this game a try. As for Deadlight I've never played or heard of it but the game looks like fun from the trailer.

I'll definitely download hitman, not so sure about the other game.
