Fallout 4 Free on Xbox Live Store

- Start date
Nope, like I said, about 115 and I waited until games went on sale. A vast majority of games on that list were under 10 bucks and a lot were under 5.
Edit:
Thought you could sneak that one in without anyone noticing
So you would have made 67 Facebook accounts (335/5)? I remember having to create new accounts each week because Facebook kept deactivating them, never found a way around that

I know, think of the MAU stats!
Bit funny if people think Kotaku and Polygon putting an article about this is going to be the thing that causes this to get revoked. I mean no way Microsoft could track the suddenly uptick in people "buying" Fallout 4 off Live and not to mention the news already going around Twitter, GAF, CAG, and SlickDeals, right? We really could've slipped this by with them being non the wiser!
They're going to make sure no one plays xbox ever again!
Nope. About 22 didnt get banned. I put profile pictures on each of them and added random people. Made it look legit.
My emails all looked real too
I even made a post every wednesday on them lol
Sometimes my account would stick, other times it wouldn't.

They absolutely can track and revoke the license of everyone who paid $0 for a product. It's probably an excel sheet away from happening.

I wonder if anyone at Microsoft reads GAF and saw this thread.

Sure they could. But, you don't think if only the op and people that posted in this thread then Microsoft would be less likely to revoke the license compared to let's say 100k gamers? I could care less if we actually get to keep it or not as I have a huge backlog and my post was pretty much a joke...

Excellent- wtf is excellent about that. At least if Sony fucks up they honor it.
Uhh, no they don't. There have been numerous accounts on both console publishers where they've revoked licenses.

No they do not, see Amplitude and the F4 Season Pass.
I assume it's not because of the revoking but because them clarifying that there was an issue.
Yes almost definitely

this is how i read that
What about those who didn't get the Deluxe Edition and just DLed the regular or the individual DLC? Would be interesting if only DE purchasers get revoked.

Except for that time that Fallout 4 went free on the PSN store then they revoked it.

First off I dont believe
secondly, I downloaded the base version lol
If you suddenly were selling hundreds if not thousands of copies of a game worth over $100 for free, I don't think anyone would want to honor those losses.
Just deluxe editions though? What about standard and season pass/dlc purchases?
It isn't exactly being kept quiet, so it was just a matter of time.

Isn't the deluxe edition just a store bundle that includes licenses for all the various pieces? So buying the DE is essentially the same as buying all the pieces individually, it just shows as one charge.
Spent nearly two years working in and around MS XBOX support. Can confirm that these agents know nothing more than we do. Most only care about getting a good survey at the end.

No it isn't. I should the game play is, the store wasn't.
What on earth are you talking about, the DLC was never free, it was just the base and deluxe version of the game

Weren't other chat reps just saying it was a free bonus for people? lol.

I hope so as I already own the based game and dl the deluxe as I did nit see just the add ins... if it's revoked that scenario sounds like less of a chance that they will fuck up my original game
