Reminder: All Xbox 360 games in the Games for Gold promotion also work in Xbox One in Backward Compatibility mode too. So Xbox One users with Xbox Live Gold subscriptions are technically getting at least four free games each month.

    <p>AC Unity was not good and I dropped off, but Syndicate was great and I finished it. Definitely worth a play through. </p>
