Re: Xbox & Microsoft News/Discussion
In perhaps semi-related news to the above I see that the CMA (The Competition and Markets Authority) are looking into the semi-shady business of auto-renewal with online services from not just Microsoft, but Sony and Nintendo too...

Re: Xbox & Microsoft News/Discussion
Bumper crop right there. Game Pass is fast becoming a very appealing service. Although the additional need for Gold on top of the cost is what puts me off.
Although if recenet mumblings are true then they are coming out with a combined offer in the future.

Re: Xbox & Microsoft News/Discussion
Gears 4 and The Crew 2 are free to play this weekend...

Although that's probably how long it'll take you to download Gears right enough.

May line-up for Game Pas.
Re: Xbox & Microsoft News/Discussion
That’s a fantastic line up there! Not as good as PS4s Metal Gear Survive but that’s hard to beat!

Re: Xbox & Microsoft News/Discussion
Guess Game Pass is officially coming to PC then...
https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2019/05/30/ ... pc-gaming/
Catchily titled Xbox Game Pass for PC. More at E3.
Also Xbox Game Studios PC games are coming to other PC storefronts other than the horrendous Windows Store starting with Gears 5 and all the definitive editions of Age of Empires I, II and III.
