if you dont use an email you used before, the new customer promotion is 2 games a month for 2 months for only $20 before it goes back to $23 a month for two games out. Have UFC and madden in my queue although it looks like odds are slim ill get my hands on madden any time soon. I plan to go through the two months and if I run out of xbone games I want ill cancel it until later when the catalog grows some more.

I am thinking I can just change emails every two months and sign up again and keep paying just $10 a month for the service :)

I did find there still isnt much I want to play but I did put a lot in queue that is coming out later this year/early next year.

I didnt add destiny but it is tempting to add it in.

I played the Destiny Beta & thought it was interesting.... I was a big Halo player for years. What I want to know about Destiny is if you can actually play through the game by yourself (& beat it) or if you have to work with other online players in order to make it through the tougher areas. I'm not really a fan of playing co-op games with strangers... maybe I just have bad luck, but I always seem to get stuck with immature people who are either screaming into the microphone, swearing non-stop, blasting music, running off & away from the mission, sabotaging the mission & laughing about it, trying to kill me, etc.

wow, signed up yesterday, madden had very low availability so I figured itd be shipped in a week or two, it shipped today. Also shipped UFC. Stoked.

Common issue on those games. I dont wear headsets 99% of the time and just play, people could ruin it but usually people play with you. Im not a big fan of online coop though, online VS is a different story.

Ill likely skip destiny and try the new COD instead.

I believe this link will give you a free month of gamefly and since its my link, ill get a free month too!

http://gamefly.extole.com/v2/share/6076035005392021569
I signed up for the 1 month free trial through your link.

I'm planning on canceling it before the trial ends so hopefully you still get your free month.

My GameQ (Xbox One):
The Walking Dead: Season 2
The Wolf Among Us
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare
Sunset Overdrive
Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor

Getting through the 1st 2 should be pretty easy since they only take 8-12 hours each.

There are a few good/great games coming out soon:
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare 11/4/14
Dragon Age: Inquisition 11/18/14 (if you like RPGs)
Assassin's Creed Unity 11/11/14
Halo: Master Chief Collection 11/11/14 (if you feel like replaying the entire series)
They're also porting Grand Theft Auto V over to the Xbox One on 11/18/14. I never played 5, but I've heard it was the best of the series.

yeah im not sure if the link works but hopefully it does :) I know if I email you from the site it works but either way, happy gaming.

IMO, the 2 games for 2 months at 20 bucks is the best deal. This way you can have one game in transit while playing another and spend no time without a game in your hand.

walking dead is awesome.

You wont get COD unless you have no game out and nothing in your queue when it releases. Thats all I have in mine for now, once I get COD im adding sunset back to my queue.

gta 5 was fantastic, highly recommend.

I also have evolve and mortal kombat in my queue but they come out next year.

A valid referral is a new member who subscribes to the Service for at least one (1) membership fee charge, is actively using the rental service, and has not initiated any chargebacks.

if you cancel it I get nothing but either way its a great service and I hope you enjoy it.

(madden 15 is sick too IMO)

That doesn't always work. I had nothing in mine but Sunset and it didn't ship to me. I'd say I get 1/2 or 2/3 of new releases that way though.

I played through season ones first few episodes. Loved it.

but then between my wife being scared of it i dont really play it as usually when i play games, shes nearby. (she doesnt like horror. In fact, she runs out of the room half of the time I watch discovery channel. Not sure how such a nice, innocent girl fell in love with a guy like me)

I think that they might have a formula that calculates how long of you have had the game in your queue and how long you have been a customer as well. No proof of that of course.

ive assumed that as well through my past dealings with it. Thats why I have evolve and mortal kombat in my queue already :)

COD shows availability low and I dont have it shipped yet so I may have missed wave one. Hopefully im wrong and it ships today.
