Game Pass price increase to $30/month

I predicted just this. First they have have low price and good selection and once people are hooked then they do a price increase soon they gonna add in tire list where you can pay 15 bucks a month but then you get commercial before you start every game and if you don´t want commercials then you will have to pay for the ultimate tire that will be 40-50bucks a month.


ALL while you still never own any of the games at all.

I'm not defending this shit at all, but information is being left out here, so I'm just posting this here for clarity.
After the entire debacle with the way Don Mattrick handled the Xbox One messaging, they should know better about how their information here is going to be latched onto. What a disaster for them.

The subscription cancellation page is apparently overloaded (idk as I never had game pass), but I like that people are voting with their dollar almost immediately. I just feel bad for the folks in this umbrella who had no involvement in this decision but will be the ones laid off when some bar graph doesn't go high enough.

I used to think people who insisted that Microsoft were trying to sabotage the Xbox division where crazy, but nowadays I'm not so sure lol

I mentioned it before elsewhere on here, but I really remember reading a thing from MS that I can't seem to find anywhere online, that stated the Xbox experiment was originally given a 15-year life cycle, then it would be retired. We're well beyond that, though I think all of those faces are long gone now, so who can tell. But it sure doesn't look good, even if they do own a jillion studios. If anything, that makes it scarier.

Yeah. I just want to play some doggone vidya games, but events like this looming over it like a cloud is kind of worrisome.
 
The 3 years of Game Pass Ultimate that I bought online from a key site cost me $60. That subscription ended last month. That same subscription would cost me nearly $1100 today.
 
Without saying it's good to have that model but 40 bucks for the NSO during a year suddenly sounds less compromising.

I don't really like subscription models to begin with, but there is merit in being the cheaper alternative.
 
If Sony follows suit with another PSN price increase for the Essential tier because of Microsoft's example, this might be the end for me as far as consoles go. All I really want is online play for Monster Hunter but by forcing me to pay a premium for unwanted games just for the former, I'd just go full retro.

Plus the inclusion of Omega Planetes Savage in Wilds has really ticked me off and if Capcom is just going to give me more of these, that and the high online play prices will just make me swear off modern gaming.
 
yea this is... I mean I can easily pirate wutevR I want with minimal effort n even though my 12TB HDD crashed last week n I lost shitloads of emu/roms that I been luggin around (some of it dating back to '95) the bulk of it n best of it is luckily easily replaced, but back to meh XB-GP-U subscription... I'll do 1 month of the raised price n if I don't see 1.5x more value at the least then...

,,,then MS can go from the legacy of BILL GATES to the entity of HELL'S GATES

Xbox360? HA PREPARE FOR the LAUNCH of Xbox666 !!!! the overt evil of modern gaming has come for us all!!! Price-Raping Vice-Reaping shenanigans will fuckin ensue until!! Chapter 7/Chapter 13 GAME OVER NINTENDO!!! even if you're not involved with GamePass!!! ANY REASON TO HATE THE NON-REZNORIAN NIN (Nintendo Inquisition Nazis) CAN'T BE WRONG!!
