Killer Instinct

[BIG EDD]

You are meant to have to be over 6 years on gold and have a gamerscore of 100k+

what a crock of ****

Check your inboxes. Some people are being given Killer instinct for free. Possibly based on how long you've been a Live member, not sure.

I didn't get one, despite the 268 retail and 192 XBLA purchases so who knows what the trigger criteria is (mind my file was probably blacked marked a while ago ) - can't say I'm overly fussed. Some people are going nuts though, surprise surprise.

I just received the email to get it for free. Been a member since the 360 came out.

[Family Fry]

Djtickle, what time was the email time stamped?

Maybe they are sending them out in waves.
I didn't get one myself and met various criteria but it does just look like they were randomly sent out pending on specific criteria but they possibly only had a specific amount to give away.

14:36 today. I have 7 years now on my tag and over 116k gamerscore XD

[Synthesthesia]

Apparently some people got a free Xbox One, extra controller, a year of live, Dead Rising 3, Ryse, Zoo Tycoon and something else I can't remember (cod ghosts maybe).

Infact how do they know I even have a xbo on pre-order?

They don't, I have seen a few people who haven't got one on order get KI.

Nowt for me, can't say I'm surprised lol Never the less, i have a code for XBL credit waiting for buying the full fat version.

It's console bait

[SUMIRE]

Anyone planning getting the fight stick?

[Kron]

Maybe when it drops closer to the ton. There's been some really good impressions with it playing well on the new dpad so it'll probably be alright.

I'd consider the fight stick if I knew more about how to change out the art. That is a serious deal breaker for me right now.

On the good news front though, I got the email about a free copy of the game last week, nice! My only issue is that I was planning to download the one with the original KI included, which this won't be. Bums.

I was going to buy KI anyway so will happily buy the free code from you so you can put the money toward the full version ?
