The games will only be free for a limited amount of time, too, so be sure to stay on the ball and download as early as you can. On December 21st, Lionhead Community Manager, Hohbes, posted to the game’s Steam Community forum explaining the removal: Hello, As many of you will already know, in August 2013 the Games For Windows Live. The Games with Gold program ends in six months, though, which makes it pretty transparent that Microsoft is out to get new subscribers before launching Xbox One. Fable III was delisted from the Games For Windows LIve Marketplace on PC on August 22nd, 2013 and from Steam on December 5th, 2013. PlayStation Plus members are no stranger to free games and are probably snickering about Microsoft being sooo late to the party on this one. Fable III is short of retroactively shoehorned into the program, but July promises both Halo 3 and Assassins Creed 3, which isn't too shabby. Each month on the 1st and 16th until the end of the year, Xbox Live Gold subscribers will get a game for free.

Fear not, though, for Microsoft is using the opportunity to kick off its Games with Gold program. Remember that time Fable III was given away for free to Xbox Live Gold subscribers? Looks like the deal will officially end on June 30th.
