When the Xbox One first launched back in 2013, you could pretty much keep track of every individual game that was released for it. Early adopters were buying games they'd never typically give a second thought to (Fighter Within, anyone?), but the Microsoft Store soon became overwhelmed with titles.
In recent years, we've been flooded with Xbox One games via the incredible Xbox Game Pass service, as well as Xbox Live Games With Gold. But away from those subscription programs, we want to know how many Xbox One games you've dropped physical cash on over the past few years.
So, let's find out! Have you spent thousands on digital and physical games for your Xbox One, or have you been watching the pennies and taking advantage of Xbox Game Pass instead? Let us know in the poll.
Have a guess at how much you've spent on Xbox One games in the comments below!

I've only bought 2: Rare Replay and Sunset Overdrive. Game Pass has helped with that though
@sheady That's fascinating! I was hoping to hear some responses like this. You can literally buy an Xbox One, enjoy the Xbox Game Pass library, and never need anything else! Very cool.
@FraserG as a lifelong playstation owner, finally got an xbox last fall to experience the exclusives I've missed out on. Game Pass is very good for that.
I know I bought less than 20 games. The rest came from either via Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility, Games with Gold, or Game Pass
I just brought an Xbox One X end of February... Got 3 years gamepass. Plus another 2 years of free codes from a Microsoft employee so 5 years gamepass.... But I hate digital, every game I want physical... I am coming round to the fact and actually enjoyong gamepass...
Including physical and digital i say i have over 150 games
I know I have between 100-200.
I haven't bought that many games for my Xbox One to be honest. With Game Pass and Games with Gold I don't feel a need like with my PS4. Also I don't really double dip either unless it's a game that doesn't have cross play with other consoles I own and want to play with my Xbox friends.
I only bought a one X last year because my PS4 Pro sounded like a jet engine. But since then I have bought all my multi Plats on Xbox. It performs better and its very quite. I don't do multiplayer on console so no need for gold. Game pass is great but I let it run out after the three months trial I had. If I start next gen with the XBox, and it's looking like the best hardware right now, I'll punt for game pass ultimate PC and Xbox and just top up with my must haves.
Probably 40 some-odd games, far fewer than for the Xbox 360. A lot of that can be attributed to this just not being MS strongest generation. I was actually buying on par with PS4 in 2014 and 2015 because MS had a better line of exclusives big and small but after 2016 I thought PlayStation had the better balance and 2017 Switch took over as my secondary (and for large chunks of that year and last year, primary) system. Xbox One X arrived too late to turn things around, even if I had a 4K tv I like to keep my purchases in franchises I like uniform to one brand.
Very possible things change next gen. From 2006-2011 most of my gaming was done on 360.
25 games. Because of Game Pass and games with gold, I don't have to buy that many games, and I usually get them with discount when I do buy something.
I don't get that many new "AAA" games per year, between Switch and Xbox.
Physical copies...Halo 5/Gear of War (remake), Rare Replay and that Halo collection. They came in a bundle when I purchased the system. Does that count? I would have purchased those games anyway. That’s why I went ahead and bought an Xbox One. It was the perfect bundle for me. A person who’s not the biggest Xbox fan. Those were the main games that I wanted. It also came with a download code for Ori and the Blind Forest. What an awesome bundle!!!!! Everything else I played was on Game Pass.
I have bought zero Xbox One games as I don't have one. I passed it over to game on PC instead.
I have about 7 that I've bought and the rest on gamepass. Granted I did only get it last year.
