Games he’d still have to buy if he wanted them on launch or at all because they are neither never coming to gamepass or not for a while
Cod Cold War: $70
Assassins creed Valhalla: $60
FIFA 21 with discount from ultimate discount applied: $54
Year of game pass ultimate: $180
Total: $364 for the games your buddy actually wants to play
ps5
Cod: 70
Ac: 60
FIFA: 60
Ps plus: 60
Total: $250 leaving your friend over 100 bucks to spend on indies as he sees fit rather than wait for them to maybe go to gamepass.
So you are trying to convince your friend to spend a over 100 bucks a year more for the only added bonus being a bunch of gamepass games he probably wont touch?
Such a weird perspective, one I have to be wondering if it’s exclusive to Xbox gamers. More is not better by default. I’m glad it opened your eyes and you tried new games. Are you going to be willing to pay 180 (and surely more when ms wants to make money) in perpetuity for those games though?It would depend, having more games at his disposal might offer him more value overall.
Certainly for me, the past 12 months have opened my eyes to many titles that would not have tried that are fantastic. Or games that he was on the fence on he now has included.
It's €10 a month for me (Gamepass Ultimate yearly code) and it's more than worth it.Such a weird perspective, one I have to be wondering if it’s exclusive to Xbox gamers.

Like I said: playing old games from previous gen with bumped up resolution and framerate. Game Pass is perfect for that.
Game Pass is perfect for playing all games period. If its a good game its coming to Game Pass.
Here we go again. Another thread for half of the board to claim every person except them on GAF is a Sony fanboy and there is some conspiracy to make Xbox look bad.Here we go again. Another thread for the warriors to hate on the no games Xbox.
What the fuck? This is top-tier Xbot brainwash bullshit. Just because it's a "good" game doesn't mean it's going to come to Game Pass. Hundreds of "good" games will never come to Game Pass. Do you guys even think about this shit before you write it?Game Pass is perfect for playing all games period. If its a good game its coming to Game Pass.
$180 would buy a couple of years of Gamepass if you stock up on codes at Black Friday. Mine runs out September 2022 and I've paid no more than £6.66 a month which seems pretty cheap to me especially since I need it anyway to play online.Games he’d still have to buy if he wanted them on launch or at all because they are neither never coming to gamepass or not for a while

This is the way.I’ve got a ps5 + 3070. Perfect combo for me.
what would be strange? There are a lot of games that I enjoyed playing even though they received low metacritic ratings. There are a lot of games that I enjoyed a lot with but that I would never have bought at 59 69 or even worse at today's 80 euros. Have you never bought a game and in the end you don't find it as exciting as you thought it was enough to make you abandon it ? Once you have found a game you want to keep forever, you can buy it by taking advantage of the discount offered by gamepass. But the idea is to always remain subscribers of course if you have the console. You can find online offer the 1 year of Gamepass ultimate starting 116 euros on cdkey time will pass before it reaches 180 euros and if you think about it it would be like buying a little more than two Returnal (that is an AA production) a year ..receiving back much ...much more than just 2 games (obviously I wasn't talking about the returnal game in particular .. but it was a generic example)Such a weird perspective, one I have to be wondering if it’s exclusive to Xbox gamers.

Your tag fits you perfectly.Here we go again. Another thread for half of the board to claim every person except them on GAF is a Sony fanboy and there is some conspiracy to make Xbox look bad.
Christ man. Do it the right way...TO WAAARRRR!!!!!
I have a series S, will get a ps5 next year. Will play through my backlog on ps4 first etc. Still vastly prefer sony exclusives.
New price tag is shitty, but I simply will wait 2 months and get the games much cheaper. Easy.
That's not how it works. Are you actually going to play them all?This is Feb so add up the cost of every game and let me know how much it is compared to playing $15 for Game Pass
Mr. Rogers aint got nothing on you all with this story telling.
Game pass is the greatest thing to happen to gaming. Whether you know it now or fight resistance until you finally cave. It's pretty inevitable.
Oh hey look! It's another Vasto console war thread! What a surprise!!
Are you saying it takes a 70$ retail price to make sure we can have Godfall? Put the look aid down. I don’t regret buying a PS5 but I also don’t get this “thank you for charging me more, you can’t do no wrong” attitude certain people have towards Sony.When you do not value the end product, you get product that is not valuable. See Crackdown 3 and a whole slew of 6/10 Gamepass fodder. I pay gladly for quality games. Without this revenue, you cannot pay salaries and the true cost of the software.
Right, let's not even wait until the ps5 hits its stride with exclusives like every other playstation has.
I know plenty of people who don't care all that much about sony games tho, and who'd rather play those "filler" games than pay 70$ for what they consider just a mildly entertaining experience.
Sony's definitely on its way to losing those costumers.
You mean straight to streaming Jafars return and mortal kombat assination and that made for tv movie from lifetime. That's gamepass.As soon as Xbox has a truly next gen exclusive as good as Demon's Souls on Game Pass he should let the readers know.
It might, uhhhh ... be a very long time.
Side note: His analogy only works when Blockbuster and Netflix have the same content. If you can only get The Godfather, ChinaTown, Alien, Blade Runner, Apocalypse Now and Heat from Blockbuster, while Netflix only has Weekend At Bernie's, Meatballs, and Encino Man - Blockbuster is absolutely in no danger.
Content is king.
That's not how it works. Are you actually going to play them all?
Monster Hunter I have on PS plus, Deadfire on GOG, Yooka Layle and Jurassic free on Epic, Code Vein 7$ physical at Wal-Mart before Christmas, FFXII already played. The rest is shovelware zero interest.
I would never pay 15$ a month to rush to finish those games. Gold + PS Plus + Epic + Indie Humble (when they have a good month) comes out cheaper and you can play at your own pace.
I'm not talking about xbox fans tho, just players in general. As i said, plenty people don't like these "top" games, or at least don't think they're worth the money they charge. If they don't want these games, what then? There's no reason for them to stay in the PS ecosystem.Yeah, Xbox fans have been saying that for 20 years and Sony is still on top. Wake me up when that happens.
People will buy and play the best games. As long as Sony makes them, they have nothing to worry about. Gaming isn't about "value", you just play the games you want.
When ever you get done add that cost up for all those games and then compare the cost of that to paying $15 for Game Pass. Dude just named like 5 different services while Game Pass alone has all of it.
If that's the case we have ps5 advertisements every day on neogaf.Lol another stealth advertising thread for Gamepass.
What the fuck? This is top-tier Xbot brainwash bullshit. Just because it's a "good" game doesn't mean it's going to come to Game Pass. Hundreds of "good" games will never come to Game Pass. Do you guys even think about this shit before you write it?
Also, I'm a huge Game Pass advocate, but people that say shit like this are just clueless.
The reason why gamepass isn't on there now is because Xbox still makes Consoles. well they don't really have any good games either. so they can still make their console right now. once they have their package of games ready to go they can stop making the console and Sony will probably allow them to launch on PlayStationWhy would Sony ever allow that?
I know this article will trigger a lot of people on this forum.....
But the author repeats exactly my feelings and is exactly why I swapped to xbox this gen. I'll certainly miss God of war and other exclusives..... But gamepass is really what won me over.
So you were going to buy all those games if it wasn't for GP? You don't actually have any arguments.When ever you get done add that cost up for all those games and then compare the cost of that to paying $15 for Game Pass.

Without Gold, half the GP library is useless so you need it anyway. PS plus is 27$ a year on CD keys, insane value. Epic is not a service, you just claim the game for free and it's yours forever, right now Rage 2 is free. Another GP fodder that I deleted. Indie Humble also not a service, you just buy it and it's yours on Steam forever. Lots of their games are on Gamepass too.
As I said, it's for ignorant people that see the amount of games and think they are saving money with these rentals. You seem very clueless so yeah GP is perfect for you.

Microsoft is a software company first. consoles not the money driver. they're not really making any money off of them compared to Software. And when they're good and ready they can go to sony and cave on Hardware to get PlayStation players on Game Pass
thats MS/XBOX END GAME
you can't reach 2 billion Gamers without PlayStation and Nintendo players
That's just what I think! how far off you think that is?
Game Pass is perfect for playing all games period. If its a good game its coming to Game Pass.
Why no Clickbait and Cringe tags?
Is that when they wont cost $70-$80 because that is what the OP is talking about, not that there are not any exclusives coming.
I meant newer first party games (games that they just invested money into.) Even Sony has some of their old games available on PS Now.Gears 5, state of decay 2, crackdown 3 (gross) and forza horizon 4 were all day and date on gamepass so far
Gamepass and Halo.Gamepass the most feared demonic vile villainous thing known to team blue.
