Microsoft has announced that its Games with Gold benefit for Xbox Live Gold subscribers will continue indefinitely. Right now Xbox Live Gold members get two free games per month with their membership. The latest game was Halo 3, not too shabby.

"At E3 2013, we launched Games with Gold as a limited-time program to thank our Xbox Live Gold members," reads a blog post on the News Wire. "Within that short period of time, we've seen an overwhelming response, with more than 120 million hours played with Games with Gold titles. Today, as a part of the Week of Xbox Live, we're excited to announce that we are making Games with Gold an ongoing benefit for Xbox Live Gold members on Xbox 360.

"Whether they are blockbuster AAA or popular arcade titles, Games with Gold continues to offer a diverse mix of games with two free Xbox 360 titles a month - yours to keep and at no additional cost."

Microsoft says that in a recent survey 97 percent of participating gold members gave their approval to the free game program. Why well not? Luckily the promotion will continue. Now Gold Members will get a little more their monthly subscription fees.
