Assassin’s Creed II Free Tomorrow For Xbox Live Gold Members
As part of the Games With Gold promotion – that Microsoft announced at E3 this year – Xbox LIVE Gold members will get two free games every month until the release of the Xbox One console – and possibly after. Defense Grid: The Awakening was the first game offered, and today is the last day that you can claim the title.
Tomorrow, Assassin’s Creed II will be the free game offered to players, and this is the first full retail game that is part of the scheme, as Defense Grid was an Xbox LIVE arcade title. So prepare to step back into the shoes of Ezio again if you download the free title, which you should – as Assassin’s Creed II does remain one of the best games in the series.
This was confirmed in the original Tweet below:

If I'm not playing on a good Adventure Game - still longing for the long-past Golden Age of the genre, when Lucasarts and Sierra ruled supreme - you might find me searching for a local arcade, in the hopes that it still houses titles such as Sunset Riders or WindJammers.
