Nope, we are not describing life in today's world of four dollars a gallon - I just crapped my pants. This is the premise for the third world war depicted in Frontlines: Fuel of War. In this apocalyptic vision, oil demand has exceeded supply, leading to famine, pestilence, death, and - you got it - war.
The game's appeal rests heavily on its multiplayer Battlefield-style online matches, as Frontlines offers a single-player campaign only six hours in length. It is no Call of Duty 4 or Halo 3, but the various missions in the campaign, in which you play as a generic hero-soldier fighting to secure oil fields, are a good introduction to the Motor Trend-worthy collection of vehicles and gadgetry. Unlike similar titles, such as Warhawk or Shadowrun, Frontlines can't be faulted for not giving us something to play when the servers are down.
+ RC Copters and cars
+ Lots of vehicle types
+ Lots of role types
- Generic single-player
- Laggy, imprecise shooting
- Only one multiplayer mode
- Squad-only communication
Xbox Live Games with Gold users can snag these two games for free. They weren't announced by Microsoft but appear to show as free with Xbox Live Gold.
If you're getting something through or because of a paid subscription service -
ITS. NOT. FREE.
Stop using that word...
If you know that you're paying for playing online + 4 games each month, those 4 games are NOT FREE.
But if they give you 6 games one month, 2 of them are free. Agreed?
Replies(4)"Games with subscription service."
Its what they are.
And yes, the same if not double for for PS+.
Stop being such a snob. It's an informational article. And it's free for those who have GwG, as is clearly mentioned. Going by your logic, Buy 1 get 1 free shouldn't be a thing either, since you paid for 1.
First, stop being so triggered. Being so angry about something so mundane is worrying, maybe you need to look into why that is.
Secondly, why don't you go round all the UK shops offering "free" iphones and android phones when you sign up to £60 a month tariffs and scream at the staff that it's not free?
Do you get angry with Amazon, that advertise that Prime comes with FREE express delivery?
360 and original xbox games are free. You can download them and play them free on 360 and xbox one offline.
Mx unleashed has been free to gold for ages for some reason, front lines is a good freebie it's not advertised.
Both games are free to keep in xbox digi library. No subsxription required to play these games once there added. There yours to keep

LOL what a random revisit. I remember liking the demo for this game, but never bothered buying it.
I bought it at launch, the game has been sitting here for years and it became backwards compatible so I was like meh why not
Completely forgot about this game. Remember being hyped about it... probably not that hyped about it seeing as how i never bought it amd forgot about it haha
Wasn't a bad game. Clunky, but enjoyable. I still remember one of the loading screen captions; real poignant and deep...
"Our last drop of oil will be burnt by a tank."
Darksiders, Red Faction, MX vs. ATV, Titan Quest, Supreme Commander, Frontlines, Stuntman, Juiced, Full Spectrum Warrior, Destroy All Humans and much more will enrich the Nordic Games portfolio
Wants Gamers Input on How to Move Forward
They really need to bring red faction back to life, that game is loved by many... and those other games too but I love red faction more than any of those other games. Bring back the destruction!
Nice to see they are looking for input from the people that will either buy the games or not.
Darksiders 3 needs to be more like 1. Darksiders 2 was a very deluded experience in order to be longer.
And please hire Madureira as the creative director of the game please! His art made the game alive. If the art style changes the whole game will be a piece of generic crap.
I have to admit, the loot system in Darksiders 2 felt like an obstacle instead. I think the first game nailed Darksiders better. They probably had good intentions with making it more RPG, but the animations, amongst other things suffered for it.
Agreed, most of DS2 felt like a chore to me with more platforming than action.
I am not saying I didn't liked the platforming, its just it was too much and was bit of a chore to me.
DS1 had little low amount of platforming, lack of verticality but it did good.
i want you to take Geo-Mod and turn that up 11 i wanna see 50 story building fall and big beautiful towers come crashing down. i want a next gen destruction physics engine.
isnt this story line basically the same as bf2142? all the world is getting frozen and everyones fighting over the equator for the decent bits of land same thing as oil is running out everyones fighting over the oil thats left
