My Switch is always docked. I don't have Internet at home anymore so Switch it is for me! My series X is going to get sold off in a couple of days. It's a useless paperweight without internet.
I know one thing that is certainly leaving game pass in early November... Me Technically, I left it in September, because I moved, and where I am now, we have no internet.
I think i remember that, but if it is what I'm thinking it is, it was VERY poorly worded. Up til Switch we had NNID NOT a Nintendo Online Account. They made us change that.

I'm not a blind defender just because they make or do what I like sometimes.
I use my hard earned money to buy or not buy. If I don't like it, I don't buy it and voice my opinions on it.
I don't stream anything (except Pandora but that's completely different, details below) because it's a waste of money. 1: One has nothing to show for it. 2: streaming quality (audio or video) will NEVER match a physical copy 3: physical won't just randomly disappear from my shelf
*Pandora: I lost my collection because my now ex decided to keep the money for the storage bill instead of paying it. Buying all those CDs and tapes all over again would have cost another million. Plus we were homeless (didn't know we were subletting and when they got kicked out, so did we, and she had just given birth to our son less than a week before) at the time (hence the need for storage) so we couldn't have had anything.
@Scrubchub That's fine they say it, but I didn't read most of it because I wanted to go in blind. I hate knowing too much about a game, show, movie before I watch it, otherwise, what's the point.
My point of contention is that they said it was like GTA.
Then you say that they said it really wasn't, so why bother saying it in the first place?
@Scrubchub I was first place most of the three laps. The bump towards the end is what killed me. I wound up flipping and landing upside down every time on only the last lap. I ran that bump in the other laps and nothing happened.
Mafia sucks. The Racecar segment was bull! Had to do it 8 times before I finally won. Tried it, got to chapter: Sarah,completed the chapter. The game is just boring. It's nothing like you (purexbox) said the other day. It isn't like GTA at all. You literally go from one mission to the next. There's no "my own pace, drive around, walk around, see the sights" during the game. For that you have to quit and choose that mode.
Thank jeebus this was a game pass title. I'd have been pissed had I spent $40+tax

Re: Rumour: Day One Releases Delayed On A 'Case-By-Case Basis' For Xbox Game Pass Standard Tier
these tiers are worded horribly and are confusing!
They should be:

Standard Console: online with all games
Standard PC: online with all games
Standard mobile: use fire stick, zune, crapple, phones, tablets for streaming games only
Ultimate: everything above
