Download “Undertow” on Xbox LIVE While It’s Free
2:20 PM PST, January 23, 2008
Surprise, surprise Xbox LIVE has connectivity issues. They also have plenty of games to give away as a way to placate the members who preferred to frantically scramble to look up the list of error codes on Xbox.com over the holidays instead of going upstairs to hang out with their families. Today as a “Thanks for playing trying to play,” Silver and Gold Xbox LIVE members can download a free copy of the Xbox LIVE Arcade game, Undertow.
There was hope among members, or at least this member and probably any others who have already plopped down the MS points the game, that we would be given the choice of game downloads, but it looks like we’re SOL. I hear that Undertow isn’t a bad game at all, but if I’m going to fill up the very limited space on my hard drive I would prefer it to be with a game of my own choosing. Enough with the whining though. I’ll be downloading my copy when I get home today just like the rest of you. With the number of users hitting the site tonight I can only imagine what the next freebie will be.
