make a new xbl account the day reach comes out with a free one month trail so you have a month instead of two weeks.. Or just buy a game like someone said

or just buy a game, and play it on the account you've already created. Then make a new account the day reach comes out. That way you can have a full free month instead of two weeks. Like mentioned above ;)

I believe you can make up to 3 free accounts on each Xbox now.

Whys it a big no no to buy the 360 to play one game? I want halo reach that is all. I'm a PC gamer.

So yea I've downloaded some demos but am going through them pretty quickly. Can't afford to buy any games after my huge puraches of the 360, tv etc....Guess my free xbl gold will just waste away....

Aegis wing is free and it supports online multiplayer. No way in hell it'll last you two weeks but it's something. If nothing else you can just create a new gamertag when Reach comes out so you can have a whole free month to play it instead of only two weeks because of the other two you wasted. I'm pretty sure you can only do this like three time per console, or hard drive, I can't remember which.

ODST must be cheap get that so you can play Halo 3 a bit, or just grab BFBC2.

MW2 (Idc what everyone else says, I love it, I actually bought it for a second time after selling it when I jumped on the hate wagon, theres no problems with it now besides 10th losers and little kids, thats really all that gets under my skin) or find a cheap copy of ODST, enjoy the campaign, get some achievements, then play Halo 3 MM with ALL the maps :3

Other things to do:

Last.fm

Facebook

Download demos/trial games

Download videos
