Apparently you have to have a “store presence” within 90 days.
Boo. Maybe we can still fly under the radar.

I managed to get a series s from the Xbox store so I guess things are getting better.

Olija's best part is the animated trailer made to promote it that isn't in the game.

The limited edition version of a console they can't make enough of is probably going to be hard to find at retail price, I would think.

I wanted the halo box for a while too and held out as long as I could but said screw it, it doesn't really matter and decided to open up the regular Series X box I had sitting around for weeks.

From what I can tell the scalper market for the Series X has really dried up and people are barely selling them for more than MSRP + tax so it's not even worth trying to do anymore at least out here in Northern California.

On the bright side the regular series X looks way less stupid than the Halo one and only costs 1-$200 over MSRP instead of $500

I legitimately don't know why you think you would be able to get a 2 month old limited edition console at retail price, considering it's near impossible to get a non-limited edition at retail price right now.

Zero chance I’d say, you will still struggle to get a standard series x at retail price.

I was hoping to get the elite halo controller but can’t see it anywhere :(

I guess you can go here in retail mode on the edge browser for the time being and download emulators directly. The Sonic games at the bottom require you downloading the (free) mobile apps and extracting a data file.

Rainbow Six Extraction coming to Game Pass on day one, January 20th. Siege will also be coming to PC Game Pass on the same day. I've always been kind of tempted to try Siege, but not enough to pay actual dollars for it.

UBISoft is bring Rainbow Six Extraction to gamepass day 1, and uPlay+ is coming to gamepass on just Xbox at some point this year.

I'm not seeing anything about uPlay+ getting rolled into Game Pass, just that the service is coming to Xbox consoles at some point soon.

I find Extraction to be so weird. I mean most of dead man Tom Clancy's stuff is hyper realistic techno thriller but with this aliens.

it worked as a special R6 siege limited event, not sure if it would work standalone. Gamepass is exactly what it needs.

Pretty much every coop centered game should be on gamepass

It has local and online co-op, but you can't do both simultaneously (you know, like two people on one system and two people on another).

Crossplay with other platforms is planned, but not out yet.

I prefer to not play Ubisoft games the old fashioned way, by buying them and sitting them on my shelf.
Despite having purchased each of the Far Cry games i have yet to even load one up and play. Or Rayman Legends. Or Scott Pilgrim or...
You're not going to get me to pay $15/mo to not play their games. They think they're so clever... hey wait a minute...

I've never played an Assassin's Creed and at this point I'm too afraid to try.

Another perfect Game Pass game, one that I'll play and enjoy but absolutely would feel stupid paying $20 for. The Xbox has usurped the Switch as my indie gaming machine.
