Ok, we updated the Xbox today and have signed up to the free months gold membership. Is there somewhere where we can download free demo games?
Also, my husband has the Fable 2 game, can he play online for free now that he has the gold membership?
Any help would be great as we only got the xbox yesterday so are total newbies!
Many thanks.

Just seen that you can send the games directly from your pc from the xbox site but it is asking for credit card details so I may give that a miss.0

Yes he can play online for free as long as the Gold membership is active.
Demos can be found in Marketplace.0 -

yes your hubby can play fable 2 for free, thats what the gold subscription gives you; access to the xbox LIVE service,
yes he can download games for free but only arcade games albeit trial ones eg streets of rage, he can also download demos of games for free eg the demo of the new tomb raider game or mirrors edge,
i cant answer the other question about sending the games from the pc0 -
Also, when the free month runs out, don't spend £39.99 on the Microsoft subscription. I bought my last one from eBay for £23.99 and it is exactly the same. Always google the gold subscription. It'll save you in the long run. And it's worth every penny!0
