Xbox Live - How Do You Find the Free Stuff?

I've had my Xbox 6 months now, and I still can not clearly navigate Xbox live content. Everything just seems so random. I remember at one point, I found free video tips to download in relation to the game I was actually playing. Now I can't figure out how to do that anymore.

In order to snag a free music video, I just have to randomly come across an advertisement on the screen. Surely, there is an easier way to find free videos and games. Any suggestions?

95% of videos are free, all demos are free, you can download trial arcade games for free, but in the ways of maps, gamerpics and themes 95% of those cost money...there is the occasional free map/gamerpic, but usually a limited time offer or comes with a limited edition gamechaoscougar1

That doesn't seem to be the case with music videos. I just happened to randomly click an ad, and got a free video from Slipknot. I think charging 160 points for a 3 minute video is just robbery.

i only search for the free stuff also.

i was glad i snagged the Elite Suit for Dead Space when it was free, a week before I even had the game.
now they charge 200points for it, which is just stupid. I would never waste money on ingame content. ever. it should be included in the game.

That's like in Chromehounds; You get the game, and then get owned by people who bought extra weapon packs. Each pack is like 200 points, which is retarded.

Unfortunately there will always be "new content" that costs money. It's another way of making more money, and at the end of the day that's what any business wants to do. If everyone stopped buying the new content that's made then it would simply die out

I got the subway theme for free.

It's solid.

just thought y'all should know that.
