Now this is pod racing 😂
Neat. I haven't played Episode I Racer since the N64 days. Didn't even realize they had a Xbox version.
I'll be damned, a game worth playing.

I downloaded and played Episode 1: Racer a bit this morning and it's just as much fun as it was when I was in elementary school. In fact, it's a lot more fun because N64 games were capped to ~20 fps and this version is a "remaster" that looks better and plays a lot better.

This is the first GwG that I've played in a long time.

New to this games with gold stuff since I Just added an Xbox to the arsenal - do you keep the game on your account like PS Plus for after the month is out or do you lose access come June?

After you claim it to your account, you need an active Xbox live subscription to play any of the games with gold you've previously claimed

Great find! Can't argue with free.

Is Xbox going to start having free monthly games similar to PS?

Has this changed? I've only recently returned to Xbox but all the games with gold's i've had in the past still work whether you have a subscription or not.

That is incorrect. Unlike PS+ you keep access to all of the game you get from GWG regardless of whether your Gold subscription is active or not. Games stay in your library after the month is over.

Xbox and 360 games (which are no longer offered on games with gold) are playable, but after they started offering xbox one games they made it require to have active xbl subscription

Wrong again. All games are playable regardless of your Gold status once the game is added to your library. Doesn't matter if it's an Xbox, XB360, or XB1 game.

FYI You're a clown and the reason I hate posting on anything online. In the time you decided to incorrectly post twice how I was wrong, you could have easily verified it yourself. Why don't you show some of you proof? Die Spam
