You can’t have a Gamepass with no games you go back to the 360 era (gears1-3, halo 3,-4 etc.) and Gamepass would have been perfect in 2011 Gamepass would have terrorized Sony and Nintendo.

Does the xbox live gold to gamepass ultimate cheat still work?

My gamepass expires in 2 days and I was thinking of buying 2 years live gold and then one month of ultimate for the upgrade - does it still work?

Yes you just pay $15 to upgrade rather than $1
 
You can pretty much cycle $1 gamepass memberships indefinitely on your Xbox providing you do it on your primary xbox
there are multiple ways to game the system

In Aus Gamepass ultimate costs $16 per month ..i dont think i have paid that in full over the last 2 years

How do you do that? By using secondary accounts?

The methods in the OP still work apparently BTW.

At your own risk of course.
this isnt an exploit or some broken feature. the guy doesnt realize his account that has gamepass is still signed in to the microsoft store(the xbox app is just a front end for xbox games from the microsoft store), regardless if he signed out of the xbox app. it works exactly like its been working on xbox for the last 8 years. as long as the primary account is signed in, other accounts can also sign in and play the games of the account holder.

if he were to sign in on another pc, then secondary accounts on the first pc will stop working (unless they set xbox app to offline mode,which means whatever games they played at least once will work offline for 30 days until needing a sign in, plus theres no online gaming )

Sry to disappoint here, but this just works like intended. As soon as one game of gamepads is started it will lock out anyone who downloaded a game with the same account. So yes, you can share a gamepads account with a friend but you can never play simultaneously. Not even (anymore) one game on Xbox and one on the PC. Only in offline mode (which works on the home console for a time) you can play such games simultaneously.
This is just the normal family sharing behavior as intended. But it still needs a real family sharing option so we can play multiplayer games together in one household without needing multiple subscriptions.

Was this something on PC only?

Strictly meaning the part that one single account could be shared infinitely and that account not needing an active paid subscription.

Just sign up for MS Rewards, get the appropriate browser extension and let it do daily searches for you. Boom, you now have enough points to cover Game Pass Ultimate every single month.

Last time I tried, you could still repeatedly get Game Pass for $1 a month by not auto-renewing GP, letting GP expire, and then resubbing for $1.

What browser extension does searches for you?

Man, this shit reminds me of that time during the 360 era where you could get a month of Gold free each month by just redeeming an offer on the Brazilian store....I basically had Gold for free for a long ass time, until some dumbass posted the method on some official Microsoft channel and it immediately got nuked :/

This is not true, at least on PC. I have one Game Pass Ultimate sub. With that primary account, I downloaded Destiny 2 on both PCs. Then, my son logged into one PC with his account (secondary account within my family of accounts). We were playing coop last night.

I honestly don't know. It became available for GamePass just yesterday. I'll check with a different multiplayer game, but plenty of other people on the Gamepass subreddit mentioned this procedure to play online with a single GamePass sub.

i wouldn't generalize a rule from this specific case.

Am I missing something? Me and my son can play games like Minecraft dungeons on separate Xboxes online together off a single Gamepass subscription.

Fuck sake. Wish I knew that back in the day. I was a poor student who had to go months at a time without gold. Fuckin sucked
