A lot of people don’t like subscription services because they are almost always “bait and switch” setups. You start off low but pricing keeps going up and service keeps going down. Microsoft’s new basic price structure costs more than it did at launch and you no longer get day 1 games.

And this is why they want to stop physical and have everyone rely on their servers to play their games, unopposed price increases.

I feel like 20 dollars a month just doesn’t make sense if you’re only in it for day one releases. 240 dollars a year is 3 AAA games a year if you bought them outright. How many AAA first party games were dropped into game pass day one this year? They would need to have at least 4-5 big drops a year to make it worth it IMO

Xbox Game Pass increase... Xbox can't keep the fanbase calm for a month without undoing a good move with a questionable one.

Game Pass price increase=Black Ops 6 tax

Hellblade 2
Microsoft didn't do any marketing for this game. The only information people got was from tech channels and their news channel about games. Normal people, the majority of players, never heard about this game or don't know what it is. It's a shame that Microsoft continues is so out of touch with the gamer world across all their media.

Since day 1, I KNEW that XBox was *baiting* everyone with their "affordable Game Pass" prices because what they really wanted to do is to first *hook/bait the users with a low price monthly subscription* and THEN, slowly over the years, they continue to incrementally increase their prices until it no longer makes sense to subscribe to such service, but buy then, users who are "used to Game Pass" might find it difficult to switch, so they will have no choice but to keep paying these monthly inflated prices. (Thank god I don't buy into "subscriptions services" no matter what)

[EVILSAGE]

What if we all decided to play the games we still own for the next 6 months and leave them with 0 subscribers for that time…. Anyone?…. No?….

[OurHeroXero]

Sony- Okay, but what if we made a controller that changed temperatures?
Also Sony- Brilliant!
Later- Controllers are catching on fire

[ThePepperkingXY]

STOP giving Nintendo ideas about raising their NSO prices!!!

[SpeechGamer]

This is absolutely wild. They cut studios - get backlash, have server issues for half to a full day - get backlash…and their answer is, “We know what we’re doing, here is a price increase.”

3 dollars isn’t a make or break for me considering I’m on the 16.99 tier, but based on me barely using it and them just making terrible decisions with no grounds to do so might be the death knell for my subscription.

[Brandon-em]

They're punishing the few people who actually picked up an xbox and discouraging anyone else from doing so.

[Shablagoooo]

I’ll never comprehend the game pass business model. Last month I used pc game pass for 27 days then cancelled it for next month. And they gave me the option to just cancel it right that second and give me my money back. So obviously I did that and essentially got 27 free days lol. And no this wasn’t a trial month or anything like that

[rdk]

Man they did hellblade dirty litterally no advertising

[azazeln]

I'm so glad for the price increase on services! Raise it even more please!
I'm laughing so hard at my friends face right now.
He has bought no physical games in this generation and he calls me stupid for still supporting this "archaic" method of playing games.

[bloodless]

Temperature changing controllers, yet another bit of tech that Sony can cram into their controller that will drive up controller costs, cut battery life, and no third party/multi-plat games will utilize.

[shadow_frostbite]

I just canceled game pass cant afford these price hikes anymore

[DPcom]

I don't own a PC. I've been a console gamer since the 80's. That said, with all of these game consoles pushing subscriptions that include cloud saves & online play, I feel I'm better off joining the PC master race.

[Sigurd-r]

Why doesn't Sega just re-release the Dreamcast? Modified of course. Surely it would be cheap to make now?

the wild shift from a SEGA sponsored FPGA system to Nintendo DMCA takedowns is hilarious
