Halo 3 Is Free To Download For Xbox Live Gold Subscribers
Halo 3 was promised to be one of the Xbox Live Arcade Gold's free games for the month of October, and that time has come.
Technically, the promotion is supposed to begin tomorrow, but the game is currently showing up for free on Microsoft's website. Halo 3 will be available to download for free until the end of the month. You can head here to download the game remotely.
Our Take
Halo 3 is a great choice for Xbox Live's Games With Gold promotion. So good in fact, that it probably should have been among the first to be offered. It might have done well to get people interested in the promotion and inspire new Gold subscribers. That being said, it's a still a great game, and if you've got a Gold subscription, there's no reason not to recommend it.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
