Games with Gold (1/20/2015)

Nothing has changed from this post regarding Games with Gold for Xbox One. But, Xbox 360 has The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition up for grabs.

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition
7.04 GB
Full game for Xbox 360
Free until end of January 31, 2015

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition is awesome! I love this game. It's very indepth and a massive RPG (role playing game). It has references to other video games in a neat way. Such as the Assassin perk/ability (bonus to attacks on enemy back) you get by finding the deceased man in a white robe and red belt on a broken wagon of hay. Then looking up to find the ledge with the bird (where assassin's in Assassin's Creed synchronize) and then perform the Leap of Faith. Geralt (playable character) will say, "I guess they never learn." hahaha

There are two drawbacks to this game on console, in my opinion. The first is that it was ported from PC to console and is overwhelming and cumbersome for console users to make use of all the abilities, etc. Console users do not have an entire keyboard to map abilities, potions, etc. to.

Secondly, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition has far too many, "Ooops. You missed that. Too bad. Now you have to do another game or reload a previous save and redo everything."

But, overall, if you are a fan of fantasy RPGs, this is a game for you.

On a final note, for parents looking for a free game for the munchkins, this one is a pass as it has rather graphic love scenes.
