The “Break it Down” Blog

Someone at Microsoft must really be feeling the holiday spirit because they are continuing to announce more promotional programs.  Earlier this week they announced the Deal of the Week Program that is running through December.  Today they announced the ‘Friendship is Free’ program.  This new program lets Xbox Live Silver Members play 8 Xbox Live Arcade titles over Live for the month of December for free.  This program is open to all Xbox Live regions.

Gamerscore Blog has a few more details:

Are you a Silver member wanting to get a taste of the multiplayer experience before upgrading? This month, we are also offering “Friendship is Free,” a free multiplayer trial for Silver members. Over the course of this month, multiplayer will be available for all Xbox LIVE members for eight Xbox LIVE Arcade games. The Xbox LIVE Arcade team will open up the multiplayer functionality for “A Kingdom for Keflings,” “Aegis Wing,” “Bomberman Live,” “Hardwood Hearts,” “Hardwood Spades,” “UNO,” “Small Arms” and “Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix” (regional restrictions may apply).

So what are you waiting for? Both the Deal of the Week and Friendship is Free are going on now and will only last the month of December. Xbox.com will have all of the details and will let you know what the new discounted content is each week.

If you are not an Xbox LIVE member, December is the month to join. For only a few dollars a month you and your family can experience all the best gaming and entertainment available.
