Capybara Games' role-playing game will be free for Xbox Live Gold subscribers October 1-15.

123 Comments

Microsoft today announced that Capybara Games' role-playing game Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes is the next free Xbox Live game for Gold subscribers.

No Caption Provided

The game, normally $15, will be free for subscribers October 1-15. Microsoft did not say which game will follow from October 16-31.

Clash of Heroes was originally released on Nintendo DS in 2009, before coming to Xbox 360 and other platforms.

Rainbow Six Vegas (normally $20) is currently free on Xbox Live for Gold members.

The free games are part of Microsoft's new Games With Gold program that gives Xbox Live Gold subscribers two free titles--to keep--each month until December 31.

    Meh.. I really wish they would release originals and then the sequel. Give us a chance to play a series of games. I was glad I got to play RSV again but I never got to play the second. How about letting us vote on these titles too?

    It's great that MS is showing some initiative to show their appreciation to their paying customers but c'mon, I'm sure they can do better. What they're doing is being that rich douchebag uncle that buys you socks for your birthday, sure I can wear them but couldn't you give me something more?

    It's free!*


    *Free may mean more expensive than just buying a cheap copy on disc.

    I have XBL GOLD and PS PLUS. It's like Microsoft is giving us games that doesn't sale, no one cares about and no one even plays. MY PS3 hard drive is full of great games Sony gave away free. I appreciate the effort anyway Microsoft(continues to play GTAV on X360).

    @jtthegame316 @Infinite_713 rental service or not they still get the games for free. I'd rather "rent" a bunch of great and relevant games for free than what we're getting now

    @jtthegame316 @jrobthejedi @Infinite_713 what are you trying to say exactly? PS+ members pay an annual service fee the same way xbl members do, matter of fact it's less money for them and they're getting higher quality free games and discounts. Most members keep their membership anyways so they have their games for as long as they want. Regardless of whether they're giving us the games or not in my opinion we're getting the shorter end of the stick here.

    @jrobthejedi @jtthegame316 @Infinite_713 Your not really seeing my point because you are continually paying for the ps plus games you can expect newer titles. Because ms are actually giving you these games expecting brand new games is just pure rude.

    @Infinite_713 All the games they have offered for free have been excellent games, would be nice if they were more recent but you can't fault them for quality.

    XBL games for gold are terrible, even without comparing them to PS+. They are previous iterations of ALREADY old games... most of them I don't play for more than an hour or so before going back to the games I already own. I bet you they pick these games by going into their files and looking for games with DLC that no one has wanted to buy for months or years and give it free in the hopes of getting money from the DLC.

    @Hortey I'm not sure if these games have DLC, but they're going out of their way to pick games that aren't selling in the first place

    @northArrow @Hortey I think yeah they are looking at games that aren't selling and also have a metacritic over a certain score, I'm guessing 7 or 8. As I said in a comment above old yes poor quality no. The problem I have isn't that they are bad games rather I have played most of them.

    Got it. But only played it a bit. It is good though.

    MS could try a bit harder with their free games.

    This is a great game.
    It is excellent on DS and the version on X360,even if it lost a bit of its charme due the graphic art(i liked more the "sprites" form the DS),is great too.
    If you have a faible for a strategy/rpg mix,this game is for you...and its for free!

    I know you guys wanted a more famous AAA game, and the offer is nothing like PS+ offers, but if you have a 360, you should try this game, its really awesome, very entertaining, and its free right now so it wouldnt hurt.

    Of course if you hate puzzle games or rpg stuff, maybe its not for you.

    The games you get from Xbox Live Gold are pretty much the equivalent of what your grandmother would buy you if she was going to buy you something for your birthday.

    @Random_Virus @sonicare Yup. Some kinda terribad chess board strategy game that happens to have a metacritic of 86 and an average user score of about 86 as well. That clearly defines a terribad game. Don't listen to Random_Virus, you will likely enjoy this game sonicare.

    @RadPro Don't get me wrong, im not knocking it. I can understand MS wanting to promote some underrate gems, but they should at least make one of their monthly offerings a classic AAA.

    @jayjay444 @wcwj26 Dude if you do business with somebody monthly/annually and they give you a bag of dog shit as a token of gratitude, are you saying you're going to be completely fine with that and accept it? To you, and many other people, this game may not be dog shit. However, to me and many other people, this game is AAA dog shit. The problem is, you aren't showing your gratitude in a generally acceptable way. It's a good idea on paper, but seeing as how everybody is complaining about how bad the games have been, you would think that they would have listened by now to the criticism and offered something greater. THEY EVEN APOLOGIZED FOR THE OUTRAGE THEY GOT FOR DEFENSE GRID, and here they are, still making the EXACT same move as they did choosing that game. Am I mad about it? No. Honestly, I could care less as it's just less space to take on my HDD, but seriously, man. People have a right to be let down because even if you release a super bad ass, recent game there will still be people bitching, just less people doing it. When most the comments you see are negative, and a lot of the positive ones are moralfags who say "not gonna complain because it's free". Just let the bitchers bitch about it and don't give a shit? That's what MS is doing lol

    @wcwj26 Ah recent classic is an oxymoron buddy. That being said you didn't specify you wanted recent games originally, so jayjay was perfectly justified in what he said. Anyway, DR2 and Fable 3 are both relatively recent games that are 'classics'. I mean what did you expect...Call of Duty Black Ops 2? They are offering a bunch of FANTASTIC games. I mean it's not quite as elaborate as PS+, but at least you aren't required to be a member to play these games once you have them (right? If I'm wrong then I take that part back).

    @wcwj26 On the flipside, most people already own the AAA games they're interested in. This is a really good title that a lot of people probably haven't played.

    @Random_Virus @RadPro @wcwj26 I did. Don't want to pay monthly for a shoddy service who's only use is to get games to play every month. I purchase my games, not rent them. I'm much more interested in the improvements to PS+ for PS4 then the crappy implementation in PS3/PSP/Vita.
