? Aus and other commonwealth countries (Canada) were wailing on the CMA, not US

I know. My apologies. It’s a generalized frustration rooted in the workings of Australia as a whole.

Chickened out.

I still am having doubts about the CMA negotiating in good faith. I really think people are getting their hopes up with this and are going to be blindsided yet again.

MS has has giant staff of risk management. They have a nuclear solution if the CMA doesn’t negotiate.

You don’t have to trust the CMA to negotiate with them.

MS isn’t risking anything from these negotiations. Nothing to lose, only things to win.

I wonder if the 25 games are rotating or simply a selection of first party games like the PS Plus collection?

Also I wonder what happens to the games we have already claimed via Gold (as I have claimed significantly more than 25!).

You keep what you’ve claimed

They said games will be added, but I haven’t read anything about them cycling games out. Some of the games listed aren’t 1st party, so I guess that would answer that question.

It’s fake. Brad Smith confirmed when it was announced back in February, its just Call of Duty.

Yeah, I thought I remembered everything other than the cloud deals was focused on call of duty.

Cloud deals were all ABK PC titles.
