For the folks who are awaiting compensation for the Xbox Live downtime last month have known that they’ll be getting a free Xbox Live Arcade game for quite some time, but the question is what game?
Over on the Gamerscore Blog, the free XBLA game is Undertow. Here’s the official word with the rather short download window note:
"…announced that all Xbox LIVE members (Gold and Silver) around the world would have access to a full Xbox LIVE Arcade game to download free of charge. We’re pleased to announce that beginning next Wednesday, 2:00 a.m. PST through Sunday, 11:59 p.m. PST, Xbox LIVE members worldwide can download the full version of the recent award-winning Xbox LIVE Arcade game, Undertow."
John Porcaro of Microsoft briefly mentioned in a follow-up comment that the people who already own Undertow can "call support, they’re prepared to take care of you."
Kyle reviewed Undertow for GamerNode and gave it a shiny 8.5 out of 10, so give it a try!
