Clan night preview: Rainbox Six Vegas - Do your homework!

We will be playing Rainbox Six Vegas for clan night this week, the free Games with Gold game available for download starting today.  It's almost 8 GB in downloads, so I *strongly* recommend you get that started immediately so that you're ready for gaming tomorrow.  Here are direct download links for you:

• Rainbox Six Vegas main game (6.6 GB)
• Player's Pack Black Edition (706 MB)
• Player's Pack Red Edition (686 MB)

You need all three downloads to play.  You can click those links from any web browser to kick off the download on your Xbox.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

Q: Clicking the link doesn't work for me?
A: You probably don't have your Xbox linked to your xbox.com account, or you replaced your Xbox and didn't update your settings.  Help page is here.

Q: Why did the download stop after I turned off my Xbox?
A: You may not have the setting configured to keep downloading after you power down.  Help page is here.

Q: I don't have any hard drive space left.  What should I do?
A: You can probably delete a lot of old games.  At this point, you don't need anything installed on your hard drive if you have the game disc.  Halo 4 is the only active clan game that *requires* HDD installation, all the other ones can be run from disc.  You can also buy a new HDD, Amazon has them starting at $47.  Lastly, you can buy USB flash drives and use them like a HDD.  Keep in mind though that the Xbox 360 has a performance requirement to do this, so you need a drive that is fast enough.  I can personally verify that the Patriot XT Rage line meets the performance requirements, and Amazon has them starting at $12.

No clan night tonight.

Lots of people out for IDF.  Sorry for the late notice.

Clean up your hard drives, people. Free games every two weeks!

Rainbow Six Vegas is the next game to be free, two weeks from now. I expect *everyone* to download it, or have the original disk.
