Twinfinite "It's time for another edition of our monthly showdown between PS Plus and Xbox Games with Gold, as we review which we think edged it this time (now updated to include changes to PS Plus' line-up)."
These are the best short games on Xbox Game Pass. They offer a variety of different experiences that can be enjoyed without commitment.
The Xbox CEO's personal intervention led to a exclusivity deal with Microsoft, reveals Playdead co-founder Dino Patti.
You mean this guy that put one of his games on gamer pass and says it hurts sales:

“We did a pretty good deal,” Patti says. “I also think it hurts sales. Because a lot of people just go in and try it and they don't invest. If they don't like the first 10 minutes? That’s it. Also, if you don't make the first 10 minutes amazing, maybe it's also a problem. I think [Game Pass] is okay. It's not my favorite. My favorite is the old premium model where I sell you on some video, on big images, and earn your $30. And then after that, I have to deliver. I don’t need to get money out of you later.”
He and his partner were smart in the fact to tell Sony shit no in owning the IP of Limbo. As for Inside, it's a great game. Music, atmosphere, everything is on point. Xbox got some time exclusivity. And Phil threw money at it. Luckily it wasn't permanent in that I wouldn't have been able to play it. Probably sold more on PlayStation though. But Play Dead sure knew how to make simple but fun side scroller games with puzzles in them. I would buy the next game like those. And knowing the guy, he would want me to buy his next game and earn his money that way.
“Not only was Microsoft responsible for much of the game's marketing at various trade shows and conventions, but the timed exclusivity was kept very brief, as the PS4 version of Inside was released just a few months after its debut on Xbox One.”
A lot of folks think these deals are all about cash payments, but often the consideration is marketing. My guess is that this will be less so on Xbox now that Microsoft has all those studios to market.
So Phil did what he was complaining in court that Sony was doing. Lol
Headline acts like this game was never coming to Xbox. Not true. It was going to be probably a 1 year exclusive to Sony. Spencer probably gave them the same money to make it 3 months for Microsoft instead.

both were bad before Sony decided to give Detroit. now, there is clear winner.
Both are extremely trash this month. But if you haven't played Limbo then that's a treat and SoTN is a classic, but old.
Well the bipolar gamers out there were complaining about the Plus games this month like clockwork then they gave out Detroit instead and now everything is good. The same person who wrote on here about Plus needs to change is nowhere to be found now. Along with all the people that were complaining. Funny how that works.
Oh course, you still have those out there that are clearly fanboys trying to stick with their guns and still saying Plus has a trash month. It's really sad and I rest hope that these people aren't adults because it's beyond childish at this point.
Last, in my opinion, these comparisons are not even needed. Less than $5 a month and people are complaining about the games they get. I really find it strange especially with the crowd that didn't get anything for an entire generation and actually celebrated for paying for online. Somebody is always complaining.....
Clearly Plus
