If these lists are accurate, then Xbox might be better to go after exclusive marketing (and/or content) for EA FC, GTA & Fortnite rather than more acquisitions.

I don’t think it does much because most people know these games are on both consoles. Heck, Microsoft had a fortnite series s bundle, and I don’t think it moved a needle. The only way it would help if it were to include exclusive content, but even then having marketing for these games isn’t that major. I think the only major one would be GTA And Fifa if Microsoft could create a bundle, but that’s probbaly expensive

Stumbled upon this:

No clue at all where the source even stemmed from, let alone I actually believe it, but it’s the new year. Might as well have fun.

The source is his ass.

Why share this nonsense? Seriously, why do you guys keep doing this?

I don’t get it, are they saying Sony or Call of Duty purchased Activision-Blizzard? English is not my first language.

For real, it’s a new year, lets use it as an excuse to stop posting obvious bollocks and stop giving clowns attention they desperately crave

The source is hopium, copium and stupidity.

I was never expecting Death Stranding to be 2024.

Na… Acquisitions insure you get 70-100% of revenue. Marketing/exclusivity means you get more chance to earn 30% only.

How do i join gamepass for 12 months subscription in Australia ? Its mind numbing how tedious it is to find info on it

If you don’t have an active sub, the cheapest way is stock up on three years of Xbox Live Gold (now called GamePass Core) however you can first, then redeem 1 month of GamePass Ultimate to trigger conversion. You should have 2 years of GPU as a result.

Saw on gamingleaksandrumours that Jason Blundell formerly of treyarch and deviation was hired by Sony and might be what this is based on.

(4) More Deviation Games folk moving to SIE. : GamingLeaksAndRumours (reddit.com)

They might be making a fps at Sony internally, a lot of deviation staff moved to Sony after game was cancelled apparently.

I should have this down pat, but my subs are always on and off. Dont i need Ultimate to get the day ones and full modern game library ?

How does that conversion trick work ?

Ultimate is for Console/PC Game Pass and Multiplayer on Xbox. Console Game Pass will get you all the games, but any game that requires an internet connection and not F2P won’t be playable.

This is where it isnt clear imo. So the only reason to get Ultimate is for online multi ? As it says a games library of 25 games under console gamepass and not day one releases

Game pass core: gets you 25 games and the ability to play games online on console

Game pass for console: get you the full library of gamepass games on console but no online multiplayer

Game pass for PC: gets you the full library of game pass games on Windows PC including EA play

Game pass ultimate: gets you everything listed above as well as the ability to cloud stream games on console and PC and mobile
