Jokes aside, the deal doesn't go through until next year. When do the games come to gamepass?

When the deal closes more than likely.

I know MS isn’t capturing all that revenue just yet with various deals they have run, but they really are setting themselves up for a juggernaut of monthly production as people eventually are paying the $10 per month. I can easily see this thing doubling that sub number over the next few years. Ms has struggled for 20 years to book consistently strong revenue with their gaming division and they are well on their way to rewrite that part of their story

Jeff Grubb speculates that 30 million is the sweet spot

I've held off on buying this on steam for a while, looks like it's going to pay off!

Any Canadian users still looking for a Series X. GameStop Canada just sent me an email saying they are in store right now in a bundle. Buy it with Halo or FH5 or Controller.

I’m waiting for the Deck to see how it plays on it before investing time on another platform.

It should be able to handle it pretty well I would think. The question is can you handle playing it?

I figured after last year, Sony would have went to MLB and negotiated this out.  Never expected that they'd get it on Game Pass again.

Loved The Show on Game Pass last year. Was able to start an online league with my family and friends it is great fun. That being said I really hope they upgrade the graphics and fix the bugs this year. Also Ohtani being the cover athlete

It's not incredibly long you could probably hammer it out by the 15th

Roboquest is a fun co-op roguelike FPS.  Worth a  play.

Alice, like the original, is a classic IMO.

Valve "more than happy" to help Microsoft bring PC Game Pass to Steam

DADDY PHIL DO IT

[XxEvil AshxX]

Couldnt they technically already do it?

[Brian]

Everyone should play GotG

[Keyser_Soze]

Kentucky Route Zero as well

[silentbob]

I’m wondering if I should trade in my physical copy of Guardians, and get the highest store credit that I can

I'm sure it's just coming up with how the money side of Game Pass will work on Steam.

[XxEvil AshxX]

Guardians of the Galaxy!!

 

 

 

...oddly appropriate gif.

[ARZ]

Nice!

After I beat GotG I deleted it for drive space....now I can load up the cloud version and try to get the rest of the uniforms

I know this post is old now… but $10 a month definitely isn’t the goal.  It’s effectively at least $15 a month on consoles with Gold.  Then whatever price hike inevitably comes after the user/talent acquisition phase.
