As the month of November rolls in so do more free games for the Xbox One and Xbox 360 with the Games With Gold program. First up there will only be one new free game to download for the Xbox One and that is Volgarr the Viking, the latest Indie Game from Microsoft's ID@Xbox program. Crimson Dragon will most likely be rolling over again as Xbox One's second free game. Volgarr the Viking will be available to download for free throughout all of November.

COMMUNITY EVENTS Out With A Bang Trilogy Event Part 1: Gears of War 3 "Send me out... with a bang..." So as you all know the Out With A Bang Trilogy has come and gone and was a great success from what I've heard. The trilogy Event was in honor of saying so long to the greatest console ever made: The Xbox 360 - where just about all of our Xbox memories occurred. Party systems, great games, cool apps and features, the good old days. I'm super ticked I couldn't make it to any but I hope you guys played a good game for me. The first part started with Gears of War 3, my favorite Gears of War. If you have any Community Event ideas post them here.

In cahoots with our Affiliate sites, ForgeHub and HaloCustoms, ForgeHub hosted a joint Forge Contest for 2v2 maps. Sorry if you missed out. Stay tuned for results! Featured Map: November Is that a sweet screenshot or what? The map screen you see above is from the minigame Pincushion created by Chancier Hornet. In this modded minigame, each player is equipped with a needler that can fire its entire clip within a second. To even things out, all players are also equipped with Hardlight Shields so running out of ammo could get you killed while reloading. Reload This! Congrats Chancier Hornet on having the Featured Map of November! GAMING NEWS Connie Yu leaves 343 for Naughty Dog Now there was a fair amount of news in November that I've been sifting through for about a week but this is the biggest.

She is very eager to be working for a Sony developer over her previous Microsoft one and has some interesting things to say about the situation.
