Ask me about Game Pass: the Best Deal in Gaming!

John F Bennett posted:

If the price of game pass itself wouldn't increase because of it, why would you not be glad for more games on it?

That's a big if. I think eas subscription service was not very popular so it made sense to fold it in with gamepass. Ubi is valuing there's at 18 dollars lol. If ubi were included and that never was a factor in raising gp prices than sure but I imagine if it were included gp would go up 6 months down the road because of "inflation" but ubi would be the real factor

Yeah EA actually surprises me, and they have a ton of their legacy games available on PC. EA in the 90s contains some of the best PC gaming ever.

Even in the 360 era they had some cool poo poo, I loved replaying Mirror's Edge

So are they just going to be quickly stripping out all the live service stuff in response to criticism or is that wishful thinking?

Sounds like Suicide Squad has been stuck in permanent crunch mode for years and they're piling yet another one on the devs.

That's what it looks like, as the game was supposed to be ready for release next month. But it's WB, so who the gently caress knows.

Until Ubisoft expands upon GOTY 2014 and one of the best games of all-time, Child of Light, with a sequel/prequel/spinoff/whatever, they can gently caress right off.

I always wear my wedding ring. It's my trademark.

I would probably not mind paying for Ubisoft+ for 10 euros max. But 15 is not really worth it to me.
I only play about 1 to 3 Ubisoft games per year and with the constant sales they have, that monthly price would be a loss.

I was hoping there would have been some kind of combo-deal with game pass. Like 20 bucks per month for both, would have been nice.

Every time I hear about Ubisoft+ I wonder what games do they exactly have? It's basically:
- Asscreeds
- Tom Clancy's
- Settlers
- Anno
- Far cry
- other games no one talks about
- petz horsez 2

I guess Assassin's Creed and the Clancy's are a draw for people but I don't see any reason to not just buy the three games you like over paying US$18 every month. Especially given how a lot of games in the series' end up being mild iterations of the last one, which means just buy the latest one.

I'm just saying, there's a nonzero chance Trump has a really toad penis.
Did Ace Combat 7 ever get XbonX/Series X enhancements? I have it on PC but I keep seeing it on sale and would like a console copy, but not if it's 720p.

It's 1080p60, but no X enhancements so it might be a slightly dated 1080. Still a great game though, worth like $8 or whatever the sale price is.

Is there a trick to get GP-U computer games playable by other user accounts on the same system? Like I do with the console, I want kiddo to be able to play games on the pass without having is own pass on this laptop.

If you log into the microsoft store with the Ultimate subbed account, and login to the xbox app with the kid's account, they will be able to use your ultimate sub. We do that with my kid's computer and we have been playing grounded and deep space galactic together.

I think it doesn't update games if you haven't played them in a month or something. Other than that I'm not sure
