November's Xbox Games with Gold offerings have been revealed and - much to the chagrin of those who refuse to fork out $10 for a game and will moan about it not being free endlessly - Ryse isn't featured. Seriously. Just buy it, already.
To kick things off on Xbox One, the puzzling Pneuma: Breath of Life will be free all month from November 1st through to November 30th. On November 16th, a second title will be added in the form of Knight Squad, which will be a new release.
On Xbox 360, you'll be able to get down and dirty with rallying action in the form of Codemasters' DiRT 3 from November 1st through to the 15th, while Dungeon Siege III will hit the service on November 16th through to the 30th. According to the promotional image above, DiRT 3 and Dungeon Siege III will be backwards compatible and playable on Xbox One. Nice!

@Utena-mobile where do you find a list telling you what games are compatible I struggle to find a update one.
@jasper81 right now, these are the games available.
I know Phil or someone from XBox said that all the Games with Gold titles will be backwards compatible when the feature officially goes live. Though I was never clear on if that was retroactive and apply to past GwG titles.
@Sir_JBizzle It's not retroactive, sadly.
@Sir_JBizzle thanks just had look bit weired list not much on there I would play. Only ones is the banjo games but got them on the rare reply disc and the perfect dark ones.
@jasper81 yea there isn't much on there right now due to the BC being in beta, but I imagine the list will be much larger with the full launch on 11/12.
Is Microsoft trying to OUTSUCK Sony? - These are horrible choices.
Yea these are Sony level of suck. Oh well. Anyone know if Dungeon Seige III was any good?
And people actually complain about PS Plus offerings? These games are atrocious....
@KelticDevil It was alright, but nothing special.
@Link41x
Yea this bunch of games is pretty bad. But I had a PS3 for many years........it can get a lot worse. I have had more value w/ Games With Gold.
But yea, this is the worst batch of GwG I have seen in awhile.
Not quite seeing the problem here, if I'm honest. No, there aren't any big first-party titles in the lineup, but...
DiRT 3 - 87 on Metacritic
Dungeon Siege 3 - 76 on Metacritic
Pneuma - 63 on Metacritic (we gave it a 7...I'm not a fan of it, personally)
Knight Squad - Unreleased, so nobody knows what it's like.
7.5 review score average across three titles plus one unreleased game. All playable on my Xbox One. Seems alright to me!
@SuperKMx
Everything is just personal opinion. I loved last month, but some didn't. I have no interest in this month. Microsoft & Sony can't please everybody.
I am just sensitive from the garbage months of PS+ I had to endure. I have had good luck with GwG so far. Can't win every month, though.
@KelticDevil Oh absolutely - all down to personal opinion.
I quite fancy DiRT 3 though. Never gave it enough time when it first came out. Knight Squad looks like it could be pretty cool to me - can't fault anything that claims to be "Bomberman meets Gauntlet" in my book!
In november Xbox One became 2 years old. I hoped there would be something better than that. For 360 it's as great as always though))
@jasper81
i use this site for reference

Nothing for me this time I was really hoping for Fallout 3, with 4 around the corner. I played the GOTY edition to death and have lost the disc (probably traded in with a bunch of stuff to raise funds for a new game). I only need 8 more achievements to get all 72 and 100% it.
@Emanouel The problem is that site has taken rumours and speculation and listed them as "Confirmed."
I'd be careful of using it to bank on.
