I believe these free gifts were for signing up for a gold account. I'm not too sure if it applies to people who already have a gold account or not. Either way I'm hoping I can get N+. If not oh well.

I was under the impression that you recieved the gift after subscribing to 12 months of XBL. I bought a 12+1 card that's coming later this week, so hopefully I get Hexic 2, which is what I selected.

No way! How? Mines up in about 3 months, so I thought I wasn't able to get it. Did you seriously get N+ cause I want to download that, but not paying $50 earlier than I have to

Did you get the actual game yet or did you just get the gamer pic? I'm just curious to see how this works. It would be nice to get a free game.

Anyone know if the legendary map pack will become free in the future? Or will there be another map pack released in the future making the Legendary free? I want the legendary but just making sure it won't be free in the near future. When was it released? Also, if I download the legendary, will it be free to redownload or will it not show it as being paid for already since it was through a redeemed code and not a purchase?

Forgot to mention, can anyone who got Hexic 2 or N+ or any of those games (or halo map pack specifically) check the marketplace to see if they can redownload it from the store for free? Or does it still cost MS points since you did it through a code Also speaking of which, I got the lancer code for GoW, what happens if my HD fails and I need to redownload it, I already used up the code so how would I access it again?

This "free gift" thing has some strings attached. In order to get it, you have to sign up for Gold within a few days (don't remember the exact dates), and download the gamer picture. They will then email you with a code to redeem for your free gift 3-5 weeks after the thing ends. From what I understand, using a prepaid card from a store will not count. I just renewed my subscription today with a card from a store, so we'll see if I get N+ or not.

so i have a question-- my 360 is in for repairs right now for RROD. I put one of the gamer pics in my download list. Can I still get the free game even though I won't be able to actually download the pic until I get my console back?

Okay guys I just checked it and it says...

"The code for your free gift will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your account within 3-5 weeks after the promotion ends."

Looks like I was right all along :P
