Looks like top management has completely given up on gaming following the disastrous acquisitions of Activision and Zenimax.
They’ve killed their first party studios, their hardware and now their last remaining thing which was the game pass.
Always remember, Fitgirl is free.
Gamefly makes it work with plans going from $9-$23 per month, but all of their tiers have more games than MS Game Pass does and has them available for all consoles + PC, so it’s a much better value proposition if you’re the kind of person who wants to play a different game every week or so. The only hangup is dealing with sending DVDs through the mail, but for a huge section of the market that’s still faster than downloading.
