Nowhere MS doesn't have no exclusive so the pass is useless

Servbot412241d ago

There are some early access and alpha games like No Man's Sea and Playerunknown's Poor Performance.

HeisenbergX2241d ago

Let's be honest that's why this game pass thing even exists.

LgbtWarrior2241d ago

Im team PS4 but Ps now sucks because Its streaming. Xbox Pass is download which is awesome And pass includes Xbox, x1 arcade classics, genesis games etc. it’s a legacy service. PS now doesn’t even have PS2 or PS1 games like they said they would eventually have. it’s just PS3 and 4. you can’t beat pass right now. It’s really awesome. No graphical loss, latency or bs associated with streaming. Ps now really need to revamp. Sony needs to invest in backwards compatibility it can be done. And if they choose not to you there’s no excuse not to be able to stream all of Sony’s legacy titles it’s lazy and complete BS.

I'd pass on both.
Why accumulate subscriptions? Also EA? And then what? The companies should focus on improving the one almost compulsory subscription.

_-EDMIX-_2241d ago

I have no clue what Sony is going to do with PlayStation now as it just seems like they're scaling back devices and I'm not sure even they know what they're going to do with the future of it.

I'm not really sure because I don't rent my games so I don't get it to be honest.

- Is Xbox Game Pass a Game Changer?
No.
- Where Does PlayStation Go With PS Now?
Nowhere.

Eidolon2241d ago

They're both not doing much for either of them. I find myself using Game Pass, but not PS Now.

SegaGamer2240d ago

They both have their issues. Xbox game pass is limited to Xbox One and PS Now is too expensive and demands a strong internet connection.

Skankinruby2241d ago

Neither one are revolutionary, offline digital games will be a huge step

Eidolon2241d ago

A lot of games, but streaming sucks for majority of people, or at least those of us who can tell the difference in latency and frame and quality consistency. Honestly, I'd rather pay $5-10(sometimes cheaper or free) per game than subscribe $10 a month so I can own it and play it with 0 network encumberance.

They clearly never did, hence why they spent so many BILLIONS on other publishers as a last resort.

anast10h ago

They have a plan. It's to move everything toward streaming and mobile. This is just the next step.

Cacabunga9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

With half of the money they spent, they could have been on the very top and the gaming industry would be way bigger than it is.. encourage developers, indies, make them grow trust them and they will deliver.

Tody_za8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

What are you talking about Cacabunga? The Xbox faithful insisted that Microsoft has infinite money, and after Activision they should buy Square Enix and Capcom before Sony does. There was no chance ever that Microsoft would do this. They would use their infinite millions and Bitcoins to invest in 50 new IP and beat everyone.

Did I really need to add a /s to my comment...

SonyStyled4h ago

The Parent company of Xbox spent billions on publishers, not Xbox

andy8510h ago

To ruin great studios it's looking like

Skuletor9h ago

Sure, a plan to be a more hated game company than EA. Ubisoft were recently giving them a run for their money but I think Xbox have really knocked it out the park with their latest stunt.

neutralgamer19929h ago

Absolutely not, their whole plan is at odd with what MS wants

Phil wants GP to become big
MS wants to sell games and make billions

GP can’t be sustained with AAA games which take 3-5 years and 7 figure budgets. Only go put those games on GP day one. Why do you think games are coming out on other platforms?

People want a change and want Phil gone without realizing if someone new comes along they may want to change everything again so we just keep going in circles. Phil has to realize that and give clear message on the direction of Xbox
