Only 100 games initially according to reports but if it takes off I'm sure we'll see bigger titles available shortly after launch. Thoughts? For me personally, again, if it takes off as anticipated I think it's a good idea. The last 2 games I've bought I haven't played since the day I got them, the price of those games would cover the annual subscription for this, and I'd likely to have been able to play those 2 games at some point during the subscription, along with many other games for the same price.

matty98 Posted 1 March 2017 Share Posted 1 March 2017 All depends on the titles they offer, I assume most of it will be rubbish indie games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halo 5, Gears 4 etc. But I'd still want a bigger catalog, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh that's pretty decent then I guess, where did you find out what games they're offering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manwell Pablo Posted 1 March 2017 Share Posted 1 March 2017 Just now, matty98 said: Oh that's pretty decent then I guess, where did you find out what games they're offering? There's articles dotted about, I think it is just rumored at the min and tbf looks like the Gears remake not 4, but plenty of proper titles. Few Indys, Few backwards compat 360 games. Looks a decent spread, just you'd probably have to times the amount of selection by about 10 for me to be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcarr21 Posted 1 March 2017 Share Posted 1 March 2017 Is this similar to Playstation Now?? I subscribed to that service and at £12 a month is a hefty price if aren't a regular gamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollinsLCFC Posted 1 March 2017 Share Posted 1 March 2017 Seen it will be £7.99 per month. So just under £96 a year. If they don't have a great catalogue of games, I probably wont go for it at that price. I can imagine it will be a lot of cheap indie games and a small handful of 'bigger' games. Perhaps if they put it at around £30-40 for an annual subscription, I would be tempted. Especially for Gold members, as they pay for Xbox Live. Does anybody know if this will effectively replace 'Games with Gold'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheshamfox17 Posted 1 March 2017 Share Posted 1 March 2017 This apparently all the game announced so far, its not even close to all of them but I guess gives a good indication of the types of games they'll include: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/all-the-xbox-game-pass-titles-so-far/1100-6448286/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairmetalgamer Posted 2 March 2017 Share Posted 2 March 2017 So I tried the beta for this last night and its currently mainly 360 games with a handful of xbox one games, prob about 40 games on there in total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSpaM Posted 3 March 2017 Share Posted 3 March 2017 I wish Sony would do something like this but I know it's completely impossible for them to natively emulate PS3 games on the PS4 so it's just not going to happen I didn't mind PSNow from the trail month I had, but I'd prefer it if it was done like this instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollinsLCFC Posted 28 May 2017 Share Posted 28 May 2017 Anybody get this? £7.99 a month, over a hundred titles. Halo 5 probably the biggest name of the bunch. Majority are Xbox 360 backwards compatible or indie games. Don't know if it's worth it or not. I hope they bring some more titles in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stix Posted 28 May 2017 Author Share Posted 28 May 2017 I imagine it'll be much better value in 6 months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
