It’s the start of a new month, which means that we have a new lineup of free games from Microsoft.  Starting today, you can get Warriors Orochi Ultimate 3 and Spelunky for free if you are a member of the Microsoft Live Gold program.

I am a fan of the Dynasty Warriors franchise, so I’m happy to see one of these games on the list.  I haven’t played this one, but I’m sure it’s more of what makes that series so fun – hack and slash with some tactical play.

I have never heard of Spelunky, but it looks like a platformer with randomly generated levels.  I will definitely be playing that one.  If you only have a 360, you can get that game as well.

Coming up on August 16 we have W2K16, a wrestling game.  I am not a fan of wrestling, so I will not be downloading this game.  It’s just a waste of space for me.  I will be checking out Beyond Good and Evil HD.  I really don’t know anything about the game, but it’s free and looks interesting.

The dates that you see above are the date ranges that you have to download it for free, not the times you can play it.  Once you get it, it’s yours.  Happy gaming!
