Loads of PC gamers got months worth of subscription for the equivalent of £1 a month on one of those deals to convert xbox live gold to the gamepass. If memory serves I got about 16 months from it. And like most there's just about enough there for me to not bother cancelling it now it's up to £9 a month or whatever it is.

I've done just that. Had gamepass for 12 months for £12, think it jumped up to about £12 month now.
 
Judging by the pc performance gonna be a hard sell if this carries on pc side.

can’t hold 60fps at 1080p with Ray tracing off on a 3080

dropping to 900p on the series x isn’t a great look from the developer either hopefully it’s improved
 
Two months in and console exclusives/timed exclusives released so far for each platform including Metacritic score

PS5
Demon's Souls (92)
Astro's Playroom (83)
Godfall (61)

Series S|X
The Medium (72) - being released tomorrow, Metacritic score not final (after 54 reviews)
Bright Memory (55) - also out on iOS and Android

As expected, most games so far have released on both last gen consoles as well as current gen. These are the only ones to release on current gen + PC in some cases.

Such a good selection of Xbox games there.
 
Great to hear microsoft went back on the increase in price.
What I read if memory serves was a terrible way to explain everything around it (something about they now see how important it is to play with friends... or some shite like that), but the ultimate decision here was pro-consumer as I think they also made it free to play online for free to play games?
That's quite good for a lot of people.

Yep only had to wait 15 years. Very pro consumer.

yeah but at least you can play those terribly average games on game pass for a tenner a month or something. Hurrah!
 
You’re right it’s £10.99

Imagine the whole argument for your console being superior exclusives, and yet you can only trot out three, with the only good one being a remake :lol:

Nearly as pathetic as leaving out the last 10-15 years of solid proven exclusive games on one system compared to the other, right?

Eh? You are saying Xbox doesn't have solid and proven exclusive games in the last 15 years?

Give me a strong list of highly acclaimed games in the past 10 years Xbox exclusive, go on?

I'll give you forza, Gears, Halo and Ori to start.
 
I'm not trying to win an 'exclusives' argument. I just find it laughable that the PS5 is lauded as the console of exclusives, when it's offering is as rubbish as Xbox at this stage.

Its just released the way things work in this world is we go on previous performance, just like Manchester United are considered a powerhouse of english football because they used to win the lot.
