How come you are the only one who will be forced to pay yearly subscription for this pass? And are you sure that you will be only playing games through this pass? If yes then its a saving right. Instead of paying 2 games day one for $120 you are paying the same amount when they showed up and along with that you get sick load of other games too.....
"I know, but it's too expensive. I don't spend 10 dollars a month on old games."
Right now i would really wish if i could see the games you owned in your lifetime. how much you spent till date and how many you started playing that you owned and how many you completed.
All of a sudden i somehow feel either you are a billionaire to own all games on day one to say, a catalogue of games are old or you never buy them at all as you say a catal...

I am pretty sure no game once downloaded will be deleted after the subscription ends. An error msg will throw up saying please check if you own this game and if not please proceed to store to pay full price. This currently happens for EA games or free play games. So unless you delete that game and associated data from HDD it will be lying around with the exception of game saves in cloud storage.
Really? I mean when i am spending $60 and loosing that same amount of space is not a problem but waiting it out to get that through game pass for $10 for that month is now the biggest problem ever that this world could not bear.
I can already see $50 in savings going towards 2tb or more external disk. But that again bothers you right. Choice, options or variance is not of your liking.
In three months on just breakout i made 800,000+ req points. I am gonna hit mil. I am at rank 127. I havent opened last 21 promotion rewards and commendation packs. Imagine all those req points and promotion rewards......
And there are people whining about micro transactions. On a social aspect of multiplayer i dont care if there are micro transactions but not on ranked playlists.
If MS is going to switch or implement on ranked playlists then its time t...
That bubble you are in must be cosy. Have fun.
For the last 2 months ive been playing Halo 5 arena Breakout almost daily. No issues for me either till now. Ive been accumulating those req points since 2 months.... Have 700,000+ now and will hit 1mil soon.
I would have ranted on MS for sure if it was down. Specially when live subscription charge is going up this month. I have it till sep 2018, planning to cover it for couple of more yrs.
27days 11hrs and 26min of halo5 and still not over with it. More than 100 games in the library but still not at all interested in any other. I am not the only one here.... Theres tons of friends like this and thier achievements history show nothing other than H5.
You can say Halo, Forza or Gears..... For me its Halo, Halo and Halo. Nobody can change that.
Tell me one thing though.... Would getting 2.5 mil sales on ps4 for half arsed game is difficult? There is no racing game on ps4 that meets forza and the ps4 gamers would just bite irrespective of quality.... Just like NMS. Having 50mil sales but still not a single game is as big as overwatch, GTAV, FFXV..... Talk about that attach rate and quality. There was this talk about UC4 goty and now i hear nothing....
Who? Did u know Beam was brought by MS already? So who should make quick $? Even before it started u state that it will be shutdown.
This service could do alot of things....its just starting with streaming as of now that we know.
If MS releases the console only in US/UK and if it takes a year or more to release worldwide or atleast in the markets where xbox one is available then im done with it. No scorpio nor anything further. I for one cant digest the fact that they are selling vertical stand and xbox one s controller but not xbox one s itself. I have no twitter account but somebody ask him if Scorpio is a world wide release where xbox one is available or a timed exclusive to US/UK?
Why is it that you both specifically want to spin this to games when the article is about components in a console?
The first known official person who gets paid to talk probably "nonsense" before something really happened in time.
Patcher would have given opposite statement if he was the whole and sole distributor of 4k sets. I think next he would say "4k tv's should be $399" or probably less to take off.
@ger...
This is not example. This is what could happen. You guys never think about others complaining on price parity but now i understood why it was so.
Xbox released at $499 in US. I brought it in my country at $786.
Would Trump open up all those plants and skip salaries to keep the MRP at same price?
Who in US works for cheap labor? Work visas for chinese to work in these plants?
I will say this again. A days wage in US is equal to a months wage in some part of this world. I bet the plants that u r talking about should be automated to keep the cost at same MRP.
Dont assume. If there is an import tax then it will be like "electronics", "entertainment". If the law (by any chance gets approved) on electronics then its hardware or entertainment then it will affect games. If its both then 35% on hardware sku as well as software either disc or digital.
Welcome to what other countries have been through it for ages. On a serious note i really wish gamers (be it sony, MS, Nintendo,PC or any platform) from US not face th...
Just so that you get it..... In USA xbox one released for $499. A year later it was released in my country for $786. I had to pay for that import tax. Now tell me which price is better for billion dollar industry? Now lets put that company for manufacturing in US itself.... That cost would go beyond $786 unless manufacturing is totally automated. Where is that benefit when its automated to general public. Labor cost is not cheap in USA...whole month earning elsewhere is one days pay in US for...
Dont just say windows. Its windows 10. Last time i knew theres half billion who havent upgraded to windows 10.
Second hand games? You mean pre-owned?
