Poll: Are You Happy With June 2023's Xbox Games With Gold?

I think it's a good month. It would obviously be much better if we got four games instead of two, especially if they're not super expensive or well known games.
But I was interested in both of them.
Now, could I have bought either of them for 3 bucks off Eneba? Probably.
But free is still better, right?
Vale looks very interesting and Adios sounds like a game I might enjoy so it's a good month for me.

Good month for me. Both sound interesting and are well reviewed. And I own neither. Win for me!

The Veil's supposed to be pretty good

I'm happy with them.

Happy as I'm normally are. But people like to complain, don't they?

I always find people will complain that the games are not AAA games but you think. Well they are free (to a degree) similar to the games that come out on game pass. You have paid a tiny amount for probably 3ks worth of games.

Wow. Check out the first 6 comments! Positivety. ..... and go:

Time to end Games with Gold!!!

I say this every month lol…

terrible as always no change there

@Deformedpye they are laughable surly Microsoft can do a lot better than this it's not hard just check and compare to the ps plus games each month there's your answer

@OrfeasDourvas Hey is Eneba a decent place for games? I've only ever used CDKeys.

@TheGrimOne I've used them probably more than fifty times and I only had an issue once with a pre-order.
They still refunded me but I haven't pre-ordered since.
Still, their track record is impeccable and they are definitely trustworthy.

I’m more indifferent about games with gold. I guess I just don’t expect anything out of it anymore. I don’t hate or like this months pick of games. They are what they are at this point.

Depends on if they are good or not. Never heard of these so I wont know until I play them.

@OrfeasDourvas Ah awesome, I'll have a look. I'll avoid pre-ordering though hehe. Thanks for letting me know 🙂

@TheGrimOne You're welcome!

I just stopped caring about GWG after they dropped the 360 & OG Xbox games. The '$40+ of value' they claim every month is a joke since most of these games go on sale for under $4 frequently. They were still worth claiming though when the Daily Achievement for Rewards Points was still a thing, but now that it's only for Game Pass Games that's irrelevant.

I'm not sure how they fix it without completely reworking its purpose. Maybe they could have it be where users pay into it to help bring more games that'd normally pass on the Platform to Xbox, make more older games backwards compatible, and then the users get the games for free or big discounts on a case-by-case basis?

@Dan1283 had PS plus for years and still do. They used to be pretty good. Now, Same indie industry style games are what they tend to release. For the price I pay a month and get over that price worth of games. I can't complain. Obviously others will but such is life.

@Dan1283 PS Plus games are nothing to do with Gold, Gold is completely separate to Gamepass tiers.
You can convert up to 3 years of Gold to Ultimate Gamepass for £8 using a one month Ultimate Gamepass to convert it
Gamepass wipes the floor of PS Plus and the other tiers, Plus games are old and have mostly already been on GamePass long ago.
You get EA Play with Ultimate Gamepass also PC Gamepass and game streaming.

@Sifi I know gamepass I's great I just mean games with gold

@Deformedpye I love gamepass mostly just can't understand the point of games with gold though

I've looked at Aidios a few times and never jumped, so this interests me. Not sure about the Vale. Have seen it before but it's a hard sale. Props to dev for trying to innovate though

Another month, another garbage selection for Games With Gold.

It's like they really can't be bothered and to entertain themselves have an office bet to see who can come up with the worst monthly games.
At MS, everyone's a winner 🥇

Anyone not seeing The Vale as free? I only see Adios and Hoa (which I think was last month's? But I'm not sure).
