Every batch, I look at them and try to decide if I should do premium next year or stick with ultimate. I wish they made it more clear whether everything comes to premium eventually or if some stuff skips it and leaves after a year on ultimate

50% friendslop

@RexPowercolt I'm not sure if i even have that much time, but it makes sense to try! Seems like stuff always takes me longer too, even though I'm a fast reader.

@Fiendish-Beaver I thought you hated 2D and retro and only played modern fancy pants 10 year development cycle 3D games

Not anymore apparently

I played citizen sleeper 2 before it left and loved it. I don’t know if I have time to play the first one now tho!

I wish I had more time. Thaumaturge is great. I had a feeling it would end up on game pass so held off on buying it. And now I don’t have time to play it!

They’ll probably patch it into a “game of the year edition” right before it leaves game pass 😆 Does sound compelling, just a bit unfinished

@FraserG good choice. Not much need to review multiplatform games when sister sites with large teams do it already.

Jeez. Quite a spread.

I’m starting to wonder if I might not be just as happy with premium. It’s hard to know what will come to what, and if an ultimate game will eventually come to premium though. Like these ones… who knows? Forza is obviously coming to premium a year later.

Kind of annoying to see so many PC-only titles…

So the only difference is that ultimate gets first party stuff day one? None of that is worth playing for a year anyway til they fix it.

If everything third party also launches on premium or comes to premium later, premium is awesome. My ultimate runs out soon, so I need to decide…

I hope the rest of the month is stronger. A one-year old game that's already been on here for a year, a Barbie game, and a yearly redo sports game...

Dread Delusion is on Xbox now, but not game pass sadly. Check it out

Too bad it’s not on Xbox. I have a Mac! They need a game pass app for Mac lol

Theyve written like 10 articles about this event now. 😂 or is this a different event?

Resident evil 7 is really old.

Wasn’t the long dark already on there? Cool game tho.

None of this is helping with my decision between ultimate or premium.

I’m gonna have to avoid spoilers til I’ve played that other one first and until this one is on game pass

@medmuscle even sd cards and flash drives are doubled or quadrupled in price. It’s so stupid. I don’t think memory is even the entire story tho.

To be fair, a series S is in no way equivalent to a ps5 digital. The ps5 digital can do everything the base model can, which is equivalent to a series x. There is no Xbox that compares with the pro (that even less people own than an xbox)

It is a horrendously bad game

Not a lot on there I’m interested in. I was gonna play the South Park game, but that was already on game pass!

Most of this stuff goes on sale for like $6.

@TheGameThrifter I'm looking forward to playing it! Eventually!! I did kind of think that if it ever ended up on Xbox, it would come to game pass, but no such luck! I've got a short list of things I'm expecting but may never see. That, Animal Well, Dave the Diver... seemed like givens.

@TheGameThrifter yeah, that’s what I mean—I figured they weren’t going to bother. That said, I think they made enough money to do the fairly simple port, or to pay someone else to do it

@awp69 They managed to write about 5 different articles about the same batch of games too lol

Isn’t wuthering heights free to play? What the hell is wuthering anyway?

The rest all look interesting for sure altho none grab me.

I figured we’d be getting hades 2 but didn’t necessarily expect game pass.

For dispatch, happy to see it! I was wondering why they seemed to be skipping.

I was hoping for a remaster for the 10th anniversary. The one we got for the 19th is sort of even better tho.

Daggerfall is still my favorite tho.

I like all the rpgs lately, but they keep choosing rpgs I already have

They should put subnautica 1 on there now.

@Fiendish-Beaver I wouldn't be bothered at all about having to wait for stuff, if everything game to premium eventually... would be a no-brainer for me.

I don’t know why I bother to buy these games new. I should save my money instead of being a day one supporter.

@Fiendish-Beaver I don’t think every game comes to premium, does it? If so, it’s definitely the tier to get! If everything came to premium eventually I’d definitely switch.

Disco Elysium, and LaD infinite wealth are both great, but I already have them, and they’re pretty cheap now!

Looking forward to absolum tho. FFIV too, but I also already have that!

Why do I play Xbox studio games when they’re new? They’re always better a year or two later. Or three or whatever this is now.

Xbox 2… It’s a totally new start. It’s a sequel to all previous Xbox units.

I loved arcade paradise, so I’ll probably love this too?

Very interested in both

Who has time for two kingdom come games and this? I’m still finishing dragon quest 7.

@cronogold That would be cool, and you might be right! Suppose not, but maybe Either way, it's great to see more coming like this. They need more deals with SqEn. I liked having the Octopaths on there for instance.

Kinda weird to call cyberpunk an “Xbox rpg” when it’s on every platform known to man. By that token it’s also a Nintendo RPG, a PlayStation rpg…

The only one I care about is echo generation 2. Cool that it’s the game pass one. I wonder if the first game will hit game pass too, or if I need to drop $10 while it’s on sale? Or maybe I should try the demo of the second one first in case I hate it.

Seems so good it might be worth skipping the first two and just playing this one. Not sure I’d be able to go back to the first two after playing this one tho.

I’d like to drop to premium since I don’t really care about day 1 releases. I can wait, and games are usually better a year later anyway.

But it seems like there are some games that don’t come to premium, and I like the extra rewards points for ultimate. But is it ultimately worth it?? I guess I’ll have to pay more attention.

I still haven’t played blue prince and I’m not sure I can play it in two weeks… so I hope it’s not that one! Would like to give Clair obscur a replay too.

Sheesh. I was getting about $20 per month. I guess if this adds up to 500, I’ll probably be getting more like $15 per month.

Game pass and rewards are the main reasons I’m on Xbox instead of ps5. They keep increasing the game pass price and reducing the rewards lol

I’m just glad you can sort demos by recent now.

I had a hard time getting into the first one, but that may have been a me problem. Will probably give this one a try too.

I’m maybe just not into puzzle platformers of this type.

I hope To A T gets a little more attention.
