Feels a bit disjointed.

slow sparrow
#

they use that to bring you the widest range of games they can, even if it means disconnecting from the xbox platform

uncut sun
#

yeah trying to bring as many developers over without thinking about Xbox Live,Leaderboards,Achievements etc.. maybe some will get updated in the future but its not a huge priority

cursive eagle
#

Am I reading the list wrong? It lists the Surge on Win 10 1400 gamer score, but I´m pretty sure it does not have achievements - I played it for quite a bit though Game Pass on PC and got nothing.

uncut sun
#

Surge was updated for PC couple of weeks back to include achievements

cursive eagle
#

Ohhh. 😄 I started too early I guess.

slow sparrow
#

Yep. they can always add achievement support in afterwards. Offers a bit of replayability to games already done as well haha

cursive eagle
#

OH! Just loaded my save in The Surge and got 13 achievements retroactively. Saved!

plucky swan
#

Never knew they added achievements for it. That's great news that someone has retroactively added them. Hopefully Microsoft are making it easy for folks to do with their games

valid pagoda
#

I wonder if conversions between steam achievements and xbox achievements are relatively streamlined thinkingchief

slow sparrow
#

conversions for them don't exist, do they?

#

I've never heard of such a thing existing

valid pagoda
#

I just mean for developers. Like if it's a pretty easy process for them to take what was formally a steam achievement in a game and when coming to the windows store just convert it to an Xbox one.

#

More just a backend curiosity

slow sparrow
#

the achievement API is available for viewing on XB Developers pages

#

it also depends on what you mean by "streamlined"

hallow zealot
#

Xbox game pass is a good purchase

plucky swan
#

I've always been interested to see where achievements come into the development of a game. How are they drawn up?

sweet cloud
#

Designers mostly.

#

I mean there's a finite amount a single title can give. It can grow via DLC but the initial title has a cap. They likely figure out what's hard to do in the game and start there.

#

And look at what other games have done well with Achievements is likely also source of input. You'll notice that at the start of Xbox 360, Achievements were all over the place. Some were 1000 for playing through the game, some were 1000 for the impossible, and some erred on 1000 for a collection of combo moves that took minutes, which lowered the net worth of their Achievements immediately. Six months later, things started to settle into the groove we have today.

digital tide
#

The arcade titles always annoyed me that they only had 200

sweet cloud
#

I think that grew over time, too.

gusty harbor
#

They eventually got 400

#

But the distinction was dumb

sweet cloud
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

digital tide
#

never made it feel worth it to me

#

which is why I usually groan when an arcade title is free with gold lol

sweet cloud
#

I wasn't part of the meetings but my guess is that's exactly why they were lower: protection for AAA games.

#

But that's just my guess.

#

I mean remember, Achievements pre-dated Arcade and they were one of those things that we tried without much insight as to how it would go.

digital tide
#

now it seems everyone is an achievement hunter

sweet cloud
#

Once it caught fire - and became Industry Standard(TM) - people immediately think it needs to be protected, often by shrink wrapping and putting on a shelf.

#

One of those rare things we thought would be a small little thing that exploded in popularity.

digital tide
#

I've been trying to get to 100k this year, currently at 81k.

#

Yeah, I can see that

sweet cloud
#

In hindsight, I agree: every game should be 1000.

#

Every DLC an add on.

#

I'd say offer it to any game that goes through certification. If that included ID@, great.

digital tide
#

seems like every game is at least 1000 now, and arcade is a thing of the past

sweet cloud
#

Otherwise you'll have the "spend $20 on this game for 1000GC with one button push" which sorta kills it.

digital tide
#

there are some games with insanely easy achievements lately

#

heck, even pac man, galaga, and dig-dug all have 1000 each and most of their achievements are fairly easy

uncut sun
#

Yeah thats Ratalaika they found their audience who pay $5 to complete within 15-20mins for most of them.

#

constantly releasing games almost monthly it seems

digital tide
#

I should start buying their games if I want to get to 100k quickly

#

got about 19k to go

clever kiln
#

I just got Xbox Game Pass on PC.

#

I downloaded Spartan Strike. It wants me to sign in to play online, but it's the wrong Microsoft account, and there's no option to change accounts.

#

I'm signed in to the GamePass App, and it's the correct profile - the one I use and own GamePass with.

#

head on over to <#233805809346150400-114211522384756737-community-support>

clever kiln
#

But Spartan Strike seems to be ignoring that.

#

Okay. Thank you.

olive magnet
#

No problem

gusty harbor
#

@clever kiln Open the store app and see what account that is signed into

#

I’m not sure how it works with absolutely new games but when Spartan Strike was released I know that the account the store app was using could be an issue.

clever kiln
#

The store app is signed into the correct account.

gusty harbor
#

I don’t have that game installed right now but when I get into work I can try and see if there’s something I can find. But since I own the game and not through game pass I can’t guarantee I can reproduce your problem. Maybe someone else will.

clever kiln
#

Thank you regardless.

You got a good mmo?

If you want futurist fantasy, PSO2 is coming to the west officially next year on XB1 and Win10, but that's a year away

currently for fantasy MMO on xbox, there's ESO which is on Gamepass for consoles

Black Desert is another

Ok thx

Really excited on PSO2 finally coming, but god I hope it comes here to the UK. It was the biggest announcement from June that got me pumped the most. I spent endless hours back on the game cube with my friends on local play.

Is the $1 Game Pass promotion still happening or did that end?

uncut sun
#

from what I can see its been extended,. was supposed to finish 4th July

serene root
#

According to the official website it looks like the promotion still stands

uncut sun
#

I cant check been on Ultimate since April

serene root
#

Yeah there's only the Ultimate promotion that's like 3 months for 1 dollar. Does it also include the PC Game Pass?

uncut sun
#

Yeah Ultimate includes everything and if you havent had it before it converts your Gold/Game Pass leftover months too.

#

mine ends June 2020 I should of bought some more Gold/Game Pass to make it 3 years but. 2020 still long enough and I can buy digital card to extend it anyway

serene root
#

And you can use that promotion multiple times apparently. I don't know how but I think Microsoft even shows how to do it and is totally fine with it

uncut sun
#

after the first time you cant get 1:1 ratio conversion

#

if I use 12 months of Game Pass towards Ultimate. it would be 5 months added.

serene root
#

Oh it's something to do with Microsoft Rewards. You can earn extra months with MS Rewards too

I always put those towards games

Is game pass worth £3

#

depends on the person

#

Well i don't own a xbox

static flower
#

Then get PC Game Pass

slow sparrow
#

Ok

#

So 80p first time then 3 pound for rest

#

80p

#

currently yes

#

it's still in beta

#

Will it get higher than 3 pound if you know

#

It will likely match the price of Normal Gamepass once it comes out of beta

#

Which is 10 right

#

USD yes

#

Ok

#

You will be notified prior to the change, however.

#

Ok

static flower
#

It's not 80p. It's £1, then £3.99.

#

You're converting from the US price, but UK has its own pricing.

slow sparrow

Ok

#

When does beta end

static flower

No date announced. When it's ready

slow sparrow

Is there a yearly option for pc

static flower
#

Have a look on the store page. It will show you what options are available.

slow sparrow
#

It's in beta, the beta's not going to last a year

#

closest thing you can get is a year of Gamepass Ultimate

#

15 pound a year?

How long does a game from a third party stay in the game pass library? Do I get a warning before the game I'm playing is pulled off?

uncut sun
#

Yes you do, its usually 2 weeks notice and will appear in Game Pass tab under " games leaving soon ". as its contract based most of the games are in for a year usually, there were some promotions for newer games but they only stayed in 3-6 months.

I've bought my xbox last week and when activating xbox live gold it asked me if i wanted a 3 month subscription to Game Pass for 1$. I said yes because I thought it was a good deal. later on I discovered that I now have 12 months of game pass and then learned about the deal of converting Gold into Game Pass. My question is if I now buy 2 years of Gold can I convert them again for 1$? So that I have 3 years instead of one?

static flower
#

Have you already upgraded to Ultimate?

wicked lark
#

yes

static flower
#

Then no, you can't do it again.

wicked lark
#

it's a one time deal? oh too bad

static flower
#

Yes

wicked lark
#

I wish I knew before

#

Will it return next year maybe? :p

gentle locust
#

they will add to your Ultimate subscription tho, i believe 12 months gold are 4 months of Ultimate when you add them afterwards

wicked lark
#

yeah but thats very expensive

#

Maybe if i'm lucky the deal returns when I run out of gamepass

static flower
#

They may offer $1 deals for Ultimate in the future, but you won't get that upgrade deal again. That's a one time thing.

#

Once you have upgraded Ultimate becomes a subscription on your account. You can cancel Ultimate and go back to separate Gold and/or Game Pass subscriptions again, but Ultimate is still linked to your account in case you want to reactivate it at a later date. It's all covered in the FAQ.

wicked lark
#

The thing is it said. Because you bought a all digital you get this deal when I booted the Xbox

#

Maybe the deal still works one time besides that? :p

static flower
#

If you have upgraded from Gold/Game Pass to Ultimate, it's a one-time upgrade deal. That's it.

#

Otherwise people would be constantly abusing it to get more time. So it's one time only, no exceptions.

wicked lark
#

So everyone gets it, there is no exclusive deal to all digital owners. Why do they make you feel special with that message :p

gentle locust
#

because it IS a special one time deal and you get quite a bit out of it depending on what you already got?

wicked lark
#

Yeha but it doesn't have anything to do with that I bought an All Digital xbox

#

thats what they make you believe in the popup when you boot it

static flower
#

That sounds more like the three months Game Pass for $1 being the special deal you were offered.

wicked lark
#

oh

#

can't you just make another profile and do it again? since I don't have any games bought anyway :p

static flower
#

No, because that would be fraud.

wicked lark
#

ok

#

and having game pass on Xbox doesn't give me access to the PC game pass games?

static flower
#

No

wicked lark
#

#

You do get access to any of the Play Anywhere titles, but PC Game Pass is a separate thing with more titles.

does XGP on PC support cloud saves?

uncut sun
#

not every game

humble swan
#

if so, where can I get a save backup? my recent Sunset Overdrive save corrupted after a crash and got lost. on the game page it supports cloud saves, but I’m not sure if I could backup my saves from the cloud and restore it

uncut sun
#

the whole point of XGP for PC was to get as many games and developers onboard without them having to worry about the Xbox Live Features..

#

on the game page there is an information section which lists if there are cloud saves for that game or not

#

under " Capabilities "

humble swan
#

within the Xbox App?

uncut sun
#

yes

humble swan
#

yeah, on that page it says it has Xbox Live cloud saves

#

I’d link a screenshot if I could 😁

uncut sun
#

Yeah I believe if you using the same account that cloud save should just load, do you not get that option when you open the game?

humble swan
#

I believe it does load, but my most recent save is gone when I start the game

uncut sun
#

yeah it would only load to whatever the cloud saved upto.

humble swan
#

it’s corrupted most likely. I wonder if it was backed up yesterday and I can restore the uncorrupted save from yesterday

#

but it might have already synced again after the corruption and got lost permanently 😢

humble swan
#

a warning to those who uninstall a game on the Xbox PC app

Sunset Overdrive was crashing on my PC pretty consistently so I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it. none of my old saves showed up when booting the game again after reinstall; they may have been deleted during uninstall. there was no in-game or Xbox PC app method of syncing/restoring cloud saves AFAIK

make sure you keep a backup of the saves elsewhere on your PC. it may happen when uninstalling other Xbox Games Pass games, which I haven't tried yet

slow sparrow
#

Definitely sounds like a bug

sonic burrow
#

@humble swan only problem is I don't think saves can be backed up. Microsoft locks away the folders to games installed through the Microsoft Store, probably something to do with good old DRM, if not then I can't see why access to those game folders are denied and seem to require permissions not enabled on an admin PC account by default

slow sparrow
#

You can take ownership of every file and folder if you wanna

Hint: Don't do that if system is compressing your files, "Bootmgr is compressed" error nuked my system. There is a good reason Microsoft just don't let you touch system files

#

AFAIK, modding is usually illegal so Microsoft might be wanted protect files

Hi I have the 6 month Ultimate Game Pass from Halo outpost, I already have the Ultimate game pass, but My Mom has a Microsoft Computer and uses a Microsoft Account. Im trying to exchange it with her to get nitro for Discord, but I don't want to give her something useless. Since I already have the Game Pass does that go to the PC as well so she can download games, or does he have to use the 6 month card to have it on the PC. My Mom also like Puzzles games, like Bejeweled or Candy Crush. And other Puzzles Games that fun and Simple, is their any on the PC.

to answer you, no, casual games are not on gamepass

it's kind of common knowledge in a server not to randomly ping a role

you could have simply asked the question and awaited a response. Gamepass is for more standard selection of games

ranging from AAA to Indie titles

not Candy Crush, Bejeweled or other Casual games

You can go back to using regular Gold. You just don’t get any remaining time on Ultimate converted to standard Gold. You’ll use your remaining time and then Ultimate cancels. You can then renew the standard Gold subscription if you don’t need Ultimate

Ah, thanks, Rhinne. I assumed the warning indicated that it was final. Reading the FAQ now

"I accidentally upgraded to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Can I go back to Xbox Game Pass for Console?
You can cancel your Game Pass Ultimate membership at any time, and you will continue to have access to your Ultimate benefits until your prepaid time ends, at which point you will not be charged again.

Note The upgrade of any prepaid time to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate cannot be reverted back to Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass, and you cannot receive a refund for Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass. You can, however, rejoin Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass when your Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription ends."

So this is stupid for me to ask but I will anyway

#

So game pass...It just seems too good to be true, I pay a small amount monthly.... and I can play all the games in the game pass library natively on my PC/Xbox?

#

What's the catch? or difference in comparison to owning the game?

static flower
#

Difference in comparison to owning the game is that you don't get to keep it and if you stop paying you can't play it unless you do buy it. Also, some games are removed from Game Pass over time.

slow sparrow
#

That's all?

static flower
#

Pretty much

slow sparrow
#

They're even putting new games on there like gears 5 on launch day... I'm so shocked, how are they in buisness

static flower
#

Game Pass brings in more people to Xbox which is valuable to Microsoft. It's recurring revenue.

The publishers get paid by MS to feature their game on GP. That will get people playing that may not have bought the game otherwise. It then encourages DLC purchases or purchases of other titles from the franchise/same developer.

#

Subscriptions are valuable to companies. It gets people into the ecosystem who then spend money on other things, especially when they're saving so much elsewhere. It also keeps people invested for a longer period.

slow sparrow
#

Do I lose my game progress if I decide to quit game pass and buy the game?

static flower
#

Nope

#

Game saves are not tied to the subscription in any way. You could go and buy a cheapo pre-owned disc copy if you wanted and carry on where you left off.

slow sparrow
#

Do I still have to buy DLC and will I be able to apply DLC to a game that's part of game pass?

static flower
#

Usually DLC is not included.

#

You can buy the DLC and it will work with your Game Pass copy of the game.

#

You will also get a discount on the DLC if the game is on Game Pass.

#

Some games may include the DLC. For example, Gears 5 will give you the Ultimate edition if you have Game Pass Ultimate (Xbox Game Pass, PC Game Pass and Gold).

slow sparrow
#

Okay final question now.. thank you for help

#

With xbox game pass for PC, considering I don't need to pay for gold on PC because multiplayer is free...

#

the £3.99 option is better in comparison to the £10.99 per month option right? if I don't care about playing gears 5 first etc.

static flower
#

It depends what you want. If you only have PC, or only want Game Pass on PC, then buying PC Pass only is a better option for you.

#

Ultimate is only beneficial if you have an Xbox and want to roll everything into one.

#

However, the PC price will go up. It's in beta right now, so discounted.

slow sparrow
#

There's no contract right?

#

cancel any time?

static flower
#

You can cancel any time

#

But if you buy a pass that's for 3 months or 12 months etc, then you can't stop it in the middle. If you were to cancel a 3/6/12 months pre-paid sub it would continue until the end of the paid time and then stop.

#

Although there are no multi-month options for PC Pass right now, as far as I'm aware.

hey guys i just bought the 10$ giftcard for gamepass and im thinking about getting the 2$, 2 month offer of gamepass and then get the $1 ultimate but im not sure bcuz i don't have gamepass so

#

Can i get them both ? and for example if i get the 2$ month offer do i get the 2$ month without having gamepass or idek ngl im being caution on what to do

uncut sun
#

Ultimate will condense your subs into one package i.e Gold and Game Pass.. so say you had 5 months of gold and grabbed the 2 month GP, when you converted to Ultimate. that would of been a total of 8 months.

#

Ultimate gives you 1 month aswell

#

maximum you can have is 36 months so people have been buying up their Gold or Game Pass before converting to Ultimate and not pay anything for 3 years

#

mine runs out in June 2020 but I can still extend using cards.

#

Ultimate will also give you access to Game Pass for PC

slow sparrow

so what r u suggesting me if i have this $10 giftcard and i don't have gamepass but the $2 months of ultimate offer came up

#

im not even sure when it will be next time that i get a giftcard so

uncut sun

yeah but its a subscription still going to ask you for a credit card on file. like when the 2 months are over.

Do Game pass games support XBL achievements on PC?

uncut sun
#

not all games

#

to start with they wanted as many developers onboard without having to think about Xbox Live features, some games have had achievements added later on

vocal idol
#

so the achievements which are not XBL is just within the game, no unified list?

uncut sun
#

another way to check is on the PC app, for each title where you download,. will say " capabilities " in that section will tell you if you got achievements or not

some Xbox and PC games are stackable meaning you can get 2,000 G just replay the game on both

I have this option to join game pass ultimate but im not sure if it will cost money for thr first month (i have live gold already). Or is this upgrade free?

Hey guys

#

Question on Xbox game pass are the games free to play with the game pass

#

The ones that say included with game pass

limpid lodge
#

Yeah, they're 'free to play' on gamepass

#

Obviously the only cost is game pass itself 🙂

graceful dragon
#

Yes does it keep progress?

#

When you play the games

#

Cause you don’t own it

limpid lodge
#

It will keep the progress as it will save it in the cloud

#

So if you lose game pass, but buy the game later, you won't have lost any progress

graceful dragon
#

Multiplayer and all that work?

limpid lodge
#

Yeah!

#

It's a super good deal 🙂

uncut sun
#

over 200 games you get to play, games are added every month, but also games that have been in for a year or so are taken out, its all contract based between MS and the developers of the games.. but some awesome titles in there

graceful dragon
#

Nice what games y’all recommend

#

I’m looking at crackdown 3

uncut sun
#

you will be able to play Gears5 next month. 6th if you have Ultimate or 10th if you going for normal game pass.

#

too many games to list, I if you scroll up alittle some people have posted their lists

#

DMC V just been added great game

graceful dragon
#

Dead rising 4 looks fun lol

slow sparrow
#

have you played Dead Rising before?

#

I didnt play 4 yet but 1 thru 3 are godly

#

What’s the policy for predownloading games? Like when Gears 5 launches, will it be available to download starting midnight of the 6th, or could you download it like, the day prior?

gusty harbor
#

I don't know that there's policy. If you preorder it now it'll actually download a stub, which should update either automatically or on demand (depending on your settings) some point ahead of release. You won't be able to launch it until the specified time.

uncut sun
#

there is a placeholder already present for 108Mb

gusty harbor
#

Hopefully if there's a day one update it'll be available ahead of the ready to play time

clever kiln
#

I mean if I get Game Pass Ultimate, will I have access to said stub?

gusty harbor
#

I think you can download it now

#

Go to the store page and see if there's an install button

clever kiln
#

Cool.

#

thanks

#

when are they going to add fortnite to games pass?

rustic hound
#

nobody knows

uncut sun
#

hopefully never

vestal stump
#

😦

#

woah what the heck man

rustic hound
#

mean! XD

uncut sun
#

it doesnt need to be on Game Pass

gentle locust
#

probably never because it's a free2play game, well it's supposed to be, the Save the World part is still not f2p because Epic's main focus atm is ruining the BR mode.

rustic hound
#

that's true

limpid lodge
#

Save The World was supposedly meant to go f2p eventually IIRC anyway

#

Any way to add Xbox Game Pass (PC) games to Discord "Game Activity"? None of them are displaying and adding the folder location to Discord doesn't seem to show that I am playing it. Any ideas?

uncut sun
#

dont believe its possible.. its mainly for Xbox if you want it in Green, the other that appears is Steam I think.?

timber willow
#

I also have my Discord attached to my Xbox Live account - But Kingdom Come: Deliverance doesn't seem to show that I am playing on Xbox Live.

uncut sun
#

its still quite glitchy sometimes happens to me with some games.. will show I am playing something then I will check later and its disappeared

timber willow
#

Hopefully they fix that!

uncut sun
#

its an okay feature,. I dont think anyone checks what games you are playing anyway, I know I dont too busy playing the games to even look

in the xbox games pass for pc, will I get to play Gears 5?

static flower
#

Yes

finite fossil
#

@static flower So I don't need the ultimate pass?

#

thanks for the help

static flower
#

No, you don't need Ultimate

#

You would also be able to play it on PC if you only had Xbox Game Pass, as it's a Play Anywhere title

uncut sun
#

Ultimate just gives you 4 days early access to be able to play it on 6th instead of 10th

finite fossil
#

I don't have an xbox

#

just wanted to play gears 5 and metro

#

So I bought the pass now

#

nothing it's happening?

static flower
#

What are you expecting to happen exactly?

finite fossil
#

@static flower I mean it's like I didn't buy anything

#

it's still says get the pass now

Check your account purchase history

Cool, glad you got it sorted.

static flower

All games listed there for both platforms.

@finite fossil we have to ask you to at least set a standard alphanumerical nickname for ease of moderation here

Its not in the recently added or when I search

unreal obsidian

It wasn't appearing on the beta version of the game pass app

#

so i bought a 3 month game pass voucher today from currysa i went to activate it and it said that the merchasnt needs to activate it but apparently hes already activated it ?

static flower
#

When you buy a gift card from a store, the store needs to activate the card before it can be used.

#

It stops people from stealing the cards off the rack.

#

Sounds like Curry's didn't activate the card correctly, so you'll need to go back to them.

loud prawn
#

thats the thing...my local currys didnt do em so i had to go out my way to a diff store which is far away from me to get it and i cant exactly go back there

static flower
#

Call y our local one and see if they can do it for you, then you can go there

#

If not, you don't have much choice

errant linden
#

whats the best game on xbox game pass?

uncut sun
#

that is subjective everybody likes different things

errant linden
#

Whats the most popular one then 😑

uncut sun
#

there is over 200 games in the pass, you cant just like one title

slow sparrow
#

@stiff parrot no asking for handouts

errant linden
#

im just asking wich one is the most popular or most liked 😑

slow sparrow
#

I don't think those numbers have been released

#

so it's entirely subjective

errant linden
#

there isnt 200+ games, there is les

#

less

uncut sun
#

no there is over 200 titles in the pass.

errant linden
#

there isnt

uncut sun
#

how you get that?

errant linden
#

Cause when I go to game pass it says 100+

slow sparrow
#

there's PC as well

errant linden
#

?

slow sparrow
#

Gamepass ultimate has over 200 titles

#

across gamepass xbox and gamepass pc

errant linden
#

Im talking about xbox game pass

slow sparrow
#

yes

#

Xbox gamepass

#

there's a PC version

uncut sun
#

I have 122 games installed... and 117 ready to Install. so therefore Xbox Game Pass is over 200

errant linden
#

nah

slow sparrow
#

yes.

errant linden
#

Let me check out then

slow sparrow
#

it's not even a matter of debate as it's an objective fact

uncut sun
#

you are looking at the advertising. MS has not updated anything just says 100+ everywhere you look. if you have a GP sub, scroll down to it, and add them up from Installed/Ready to Install

static flower
uncut sun
#

exactly

errant linden
#

ohhhh

static flower
#

233 on console, 132 on PC

errant linden
#

bruh

#

but I was talking about xbox one only, nothing with pc

#

so then I have a point

static flower
#

No, you don't

slow sparrow
#

that's xbox only

#

Console

static flower
#

There's still over 200 on Xbox

uncut sun
#

some of the PC games I am able to play on Xbox. which is why I have 239

errant linden
#

oh

#

im confused

slow sparrow
#

Rhinne already stated

#

there's 233 on Xbox One Console, there's 132 on Windows 10 PC

errant linden
#

I got xbox pass early but 200+ is a lot lol

static flower
#

I'm not sure what there is to be confused about. It's pretty clear.

errant linden
#

Im confused on why this argument started when I only asked wich game is the most popular on xbox pass

uncut sun
#

we already told you that answer aswell.

errant linden
#

You said its subjective

uncut sun
#

because it is.

static flower
#

It started because you said there wasn't 200 games on Game Pass when there are.

errant linden
#

But there must be a game people would mostly download more

#

And dont sound so proffesional, it looks like you want to be a mod, wich you are indeed doing

static flower
#

Me? I am a mod...

errant linden
#

not you

slow sparrow
#

Blue is mod

errant linden
#

Ik

noble cove
#

A game being "the best" is entirely subjective on what people like. I could tell you Farming Simulator is the best game, and you might be like "Uck, who would play that?"

errant linden
#

Im talking about paul

slow sparrow
#

Paul is an Ambassador I believe, he's more than qualified

errant linden
#

Oh

#

So farming simulator is good?

noble cove
#

...

uncut sun
#

well they have an esports league it must be good

noble cove
#

That was a hypothetical example trying to make a point

errant linden
#

wait, oh ik that game now, its nice

noble cove
#

No one knows what the "best" game is, there is no "best" game

errant linden
#

Not exacly the best game, just one thats more popular

noble cove
#

and there are no numbers released that show usage of each game or it's popularity

errant linden
#

Well I aint an expert at that

#

I just dont want to spend 4 hours downloading a game thats not good

uncut sun
#

its more of the case to download these games and try them for yourself, I mean its why people get the sub in the first place to play games they may not of thought about buying

static flower
#

Look up reviews and gameplay vids then

gentle locust
#

^

noble cove
#

So scroll through the list, find one that you've heard of or sounds interesting, and do a bit of research on it before you download

#

like Rhinne said, look up reviews or gameplay

errant linden
#

oh

static flower
#

See which games most suit your personal preferences, instead of asking people about games that would get you answers based on their preferences.

errant linden
#

I like to hear peoples opinions tho, or is that something bad?

noble cove
#

getting people's opinions is fine, but find a game that you're interested in first

uncut sun
#

isnt that what a game review is.. so just google about.

noble cove
#

don't just come in here and demand for us to tell you what the most popular game out of 233 is

errant linden
#

Im not demanding sheesh

#

Im just going to ask nicer people about their opinions then

orchid ore
#

I'd say check out game pass then you aren't paying for a new game and read the reviews.
If you are looking for a specific recommendation, What remains of Edith Finch is amazing.

errant linden
#

Edith finch?

orchid ore
#

Yes, it's an amazing little indie title that deals with quite hard topics but is very good

errant linden
#

is the game on xbox pass?

orchid ore
#

Yes it is, it's not a long game, you can complete it in a couple of hours

errant linden
#

Ohh I will check it out 😊

#

I think ive seen the name on the pass

orchid ore
#

Prepare for feels!

errant linden
#

oh

#

#

I know this might seem like an easy question but I got a code for GamePass from Rockstar (Drink) and it says it's for the console, My question is... could I still activate it and use it on PC for games that have play anywhere?

slow sparrow
#

play anywhere games work on pc and console with just console subscriptions, yes

#

though the selection is slimmer, obviously.

burnt isle
#

Long as I can play Gears 5 on PC, I'm fine.

slow sparrow
#

It...should work.

#

It's going to be play anywhere. you won't have access to ultimate edition though unless it's a Gamepass Ultimate code

#

so you'll have to wait until launch day of the full game/standard edition

burnt isle
#

Nah just a 7 day code for GamePass and 7 day of Gold which is useless on PC.

slow sparrow
#

hmm, yeah. if you redeemed both of them and had $2 you could take advantage of the 2 month of Ultimate for $2, it would add the time from those codes onto it as well

#

and CD keys has a sale on 3-month ultimate codes, $15.99USD

#

obviously these are just multiple options

#

since I know 7 days is really just a tease of all of the available titles

burnt isle
#

I remember using ultimate for £1. I used to just have GamePass on PC but I mostly used it for Forza.

#

I'm fine with just paying for the months I feel like playing.
