THE ART OF RALLY = it's like Dirt but it's top down, it's like Dirt if it was made by a pretentious indie studio, it's so good

MONSTER SANCTUARY = it's literally Castlevania + Pokemon. literally you jump around and open paths with mon abils and you fight mons in turn based combat you have 3 mons on your party at any time the mons are so far mostly pretty adorbs. there's a cat with a sword. nuff said

The Artful Escape is super good if you are into adventure games with excellent writing and slightly more interesting gameplay than point and click

It's insanely bad for mods and non-Microsoft multiplayer games (like Deep Rock Galactic) are insanely busted on it so it's just a "try first" platform.

They removed Yakuza 0, Kiwami and Kiwami 2 at the end of 2021 which is a bummer. That series is the main thing that's kept me subscribed all year.

Oh you're right, but it still says "Leaving soon" on the page. Surely that doesn't mean they're letting me buy it at 80% off only to take it away at the end of the month?

Yes. They're taking them away but their 80% off if youd like to keep them forever. Then you can fall behind on playing them all in succession and repeat this process 4 more times

Oh okay, thats cool that they do that then! Luckily I'd just beaten Kiwami 2 last week and I'd only noticed it was going off the service when I went to uninstall.

So you get a perennial 10% discount to buying any game thats on game pass (if it has a deeper sale for another reason its not additive). However, usually when games, especially more popular games, leave the service you'll see a special leaving sale like Yakuza

I got the new xbox and have game pass for it and think that game pass is a p good service actually especially when you can get the cards on sale which they often are, but like, I never use the fuckin thing well that's my xbox story thanks


ps also I ran into a really close friend but one that'd I'd sorta lost contact with a couple years ago and we reconnected and hung out recently and he found out I went from a playstation back to Xbox and he gave me a once-over and said "I wish we'd never re-met." And turned his back to me and just drank his beer, lol.

consoles are for children which is why i discounted gamepass for so long but i checked it out to play wasteland 3 without buying it, unsubbed, resubbed for aoe4 and now i'm a believer

xbox app is an unbelievable piece of poo poo though, easily the worst piece of microsoft software i've ever used and it's not even close

I play Xbox on my PC with my the game pass so I can have some alone time downstairs but also play Forza 7 on my Thrustmaster Xbox wheel.

I like the game pass concept so far, but much like the other streaming services I have, I worry we don't spend enough time watching tv and videogames, even though it seems like thats all we do in winter.

"I'mma fire up every time you reboot and then ask how much you like me lmao lol hey is that ok is that cool? Also even if you do get curious about using me for such things as remotely turning your console on downstairs and/or queing up game installs on it which I say I can do I'm gonna move those features around every loving time you open me up because I've updated and now they're hidden somewhere or just gone now. Do you like me as an app? Yes/No/Complete this survey. Hey I'm gonna run in the background as a service is that cool? Do you like this feature?"

I, too, have sent MS an angrily worded review of their software. They also got to deal with me pissed on the phone after 2 weeks of trying to install Flight Sim (or any other software) and being informed that I did not have admin access to my harddrive, on the admin account running the program as admin.

Gamepass on PC still kicks rear end, tho, I missed Control free on PS4 last year and it's very fun to show my RTX off to people.

I had received a 3 month free trial for the PC version and decided to check it out. It's actually a pretty good deal especially if you were going to buy a new MS game anyways. For the price of Forza Horizons 5 I can now play a bunch of EA games, some card battlers I would have never thought to try (like Slay the Spire or Monster Train) and a ton of RPGs I never got around to. I ended up just subscribing since there is always something that I'll spend a few hours on each month. A++ would fund Bill Gates Vaccine-Human control program again.
