    Yes. I got it. They send you and email then ask if you'd like either a text or call to confirm and then they'll send you the code. I have the game right now for less than $2

    I ordered it and paid through PayPal. They sent me an email that took me back to their website. From there they asked if I'd like a call or text to get a verification code. Once I got the code I entered on the same page they asked how I'd like the code. Once I input the code they showed the Microsoft code. Once I had the code I went to my X1 and went to store and then went to redeem a code. I did this and the game was in my "ready to download" folder.

    So I missed the badass cyber monday deal on the 4k xbox console (forgive my lack of knowledge on the formal name), does anyone know the best deal out there this time of year and can hook a brother up with the link?

    Likes to be given.

    Apparently Call of Duty Infinite Warfare is going to be free to play from December 15th - 20th. It's supposed to go live today but I can't find it anywhere on the Xbox Store for free.

    This is great because I will never buy this trash game with its money grabbing developer but I am curious to see how it plays.

    Battlefront's hero mode is a lot of fun. I loved fucking people up using Darth Vader's force choke.

    I splashed $60 for the version with that and MW remastered.

    totally worth it, but i'm not a hardcore gamer and am easily amused/impressed.

    good question, I am not sure but there must be a procedure to check if your subscription is active. so I would guess yes?

    Pretty sure you have to open the EA Access app to access whatever game you want to play, which would require internet

    You definitely don't have to open the app to play the games. I just click on the games in my library (after they've been downloaded obviously) and they open right up.

    Don't think there's a TF2 trial anymore? Thought it was just a free weekend like COD is doing?

    Also, I would be down for Overwatch. I rage on that game though so no guarantees to playing it for a long time.

    TF2 trial is the EA Access one. I still have 10 hours on that.

    Let me know what game though in case I have to download anything.

    Edit: forgot I also have R6:S but I've only done the "PVE" games, and not the PVP.

    I essentially invited everyone in The Mainboard club by posting the LFG in there. So it was an open invitation to anyone that wanted to play.

    I bought the same bundle for my boys. My wife bought me GoW4 on Amazon for $40. There's still a handful of games on Amazon ranging from $30-$50.
