With day 1 releases, GP is often a good deal. I usually just subscribe for a month when something interesting comes along, and play that. I finished the new COD BO campaign and Indiana Jones game for 1 month’s price, so I cannot complain.

This article articulates what I’ve been feeling as a gamepass subscriber. I was able to get through the rough years without feeling cheated thanks to the three year conversion trick making Gamepass cheap as hell for that period. Nowadays I just look out for good deals for codes online to keep it under the retail subscription cost. If I play enough of these games in a timeframe my subscription feels like a good value. Thankfully there’s an abundance of games now. Really looking forward to Avowed

I was a big proponent of Game Pass! I still like the model.

Then they fired Tango Gameworks, the devs of MS Game Studios' ONLY goty candidate, Hi-Fi Rush. Now, I am very much: Fuck Xbox.
