Re: Xbox Reporter Sheds Light On Why Game Pass Family Plan Might Have Been Cancelled

@AverageGamer I don't think having ea access on gamepass did much to be honest like I said the games on the service where always cheap and old enough by the time they where on the service.
Also with hindsight we now know how bad those battlefield games performed if anything ea owed Microsoft for allowing ea access on there platform when nobody else would.
The main point of gamepass was day one games not ea games.
I understand what you are saying I just think you're giving ea to much credit what Xbox and gamepass was at that point ea never had Xbox over a barrel because they couldn't.
Without Xbox ea access wouldn't of happened at that point and ea would never drop putting games on Xbox

Obviously great for those who are still playing this game on Xbox I couldn't imagine it's a huge amount of people but hey it's positive.
Bethesda just irritate the life out of me wouldn't of an update like this hit a bit harder a couple years ago when the game was more popular??
It seems everything they do they do it at glacier speed!
How long did it take obsidian to whack out new Vegas out very quickly wasn't it?
They are wasting the franchises they own!
Rant over apologies 😑

@AverageGamer Gamepass doesn't need ea access that much and there are rumors of customizable gamepass plans coming soon I get what you are saying but ea isn't that important to gamepass in reality and it's not like they are going to just stop making games on Xbox if they did take it off the plan.
Xbox isn't in an amazing place but not as bad a place where they need ea to get gamepass subs I'd argue that's never been the case.

@themightyant There's literally nothing missed without it and if you do like any of the games that would be on there service they are normally really cheap by the time they come to it especially back then there wasn't much on ea access at all!
I'm sure it was some legal bull from ea that put an end to it.
Maybe the contract they had at the time with Microsoft made it impossible to offer gamepass without ea access??

Re: Xbox Hires New Exec To 'Strengthen The Console Side' Of The Business

Nothing but encouraging signs coming out of Xbox HQ since Sharma took over!
Start making the series s/x consoles look like the place to do your gaming they need to shift some consoles when GTA drops they can't just do nothing and let Sony scoop up the lot.
I'd bet on a decent price drop around the launch of GTA.
Microsoft need to start acting like the company with deeper pockets on this one get people in your ecosystem make the series s the cheapest way to play it by a big margin!
The series x should come cheaper than the base ps5 aswell around that time otherwise I don't see significant numbers.

I'll be on undisputed bought it during the week and I'm really enjoying it.
It's a very different game from fight night a lot deeper and tactical so I'm enjoying learning the game and improving right now.
I'm doing a career mode with Johnny nelson because the character creator is terrible haha!
Happy weekend folks
