Xbox Live Gold Goes Free To All 8th-10th March

Untitled Microsoft have announced that regular Xbox Live Silver members will receive a free status upgrade for 64 hours, courtesy of Bioshock: Infinite. The free weekend begins Friday 8th March 12:00 and ends Sunday 10th March 23:59, during the promotion a variety of multiplayer events will take place. Such as 'Rockstar Friday', where you can play against Rockstar developers in Grand Theft Auto IV, Midnight Club LA, Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3. Other games taking part in the weekend include: Assassins Creed III, featuring double xp. Borderlands 2, which offers a chance to win an Xbox Gold Key. Halo 4, gives the chance to unlock an exclusive avatar. Fifa 13, includes in-game discounts. Forza Horizon, allows you to try out the McLaren MP4-12C. Plus even more... The rest of the list features Happy Wars, Karaoke, Tomb Raider and Call of Duty: Black Ops II. So for those gold members not benefiting from an upgrade then there's an abundance of other ways to do so. So if you'll be making an upgrade to gold next weekend why not make the most of it? Things to check out include streaming live movies, perfect with most providers offering free trials or even try the selection of music and tv shows available to watch.
