Amazing lineup . Thanks to think I’ll not need to buy games for the next 6 months :)

potatoseal1334d ago

HAHAHAHAAHAHAAaaa omg BAHAHAAAAAA

Donnie811334d ago

Yeah it was a joke . Those games are awful

TheRacingX1333d ago

Armed and dangerous is actually a really good game, The division gets boring fast, never played the other 2

RpgSama1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

Then they talk about MS being "pro-consumer" not only are they are basically charging you for Xbox Live only to play online, because there is no value on the games they give you anymore. But even worse, they are "steering" customers towards Game Pass which in some business sectors is actually an illegal practice or at least an unethical one.

Donnie811334d ago

Who pays for love or plus just for the games? If u don’t play mp games just buy the service one month at a time to snag the games u want. Let’s not pretend plus is better because it’s not. With gamepass ultimate u get live and gamepass making it a far better deal. Also games with gold u get double the games and the 360 games are urs to keep. So I think getting more bang for your buck is very pro consumer.

DJStotty1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

@RpgSama

Sony and Microsoft don't need to give you anything, be happy your getting something.

May be a bad month in your opinion, but they have to cater for all markets, some months will be good others bad.

And gamepass now includes xbox live gold (ultimate), so it actually works out cheaper to get gamepass ultimate as opposed to getting both.

And you say "But even worse, they are "steering" customers towards Game Pass which in some business sectors is actually an illegal practice or at least an unethical one."

No one forces you to pay anything.

What's so amazing about this lineup? 🤔

fathertime44641334d ago

Well this sucks again. Wish Microsoft would give of more high quality games like ps plus does every month

rpvenom1334d ago

They can't because then it'll be harder to justify getting gamepass

DJStotty1334d ago

not really

GWG games you get to keep
Gamepass you rent

lodossrage1333d ago

@Djstotty

you never got to keep the Xbox One games with GWG. And you used to be able to keep the 360 ones.

DJStotty1329d ago (Edited 1329d ago )

@Shaggy2304

As long as you are an active Gold subber, you get to keep the xbox one games, 360 playable offline. So :-

Gold sub = Xbox One games playable for the duration of the sub (do not know anyone who unsubs)
360 games yours to keep.

"Your Xbox Live Gold membership gets you free Games with Gold every month: two on Xbox One and two on Xbox 360.

Go to the Gold members' area on your console to download your games. Games show up on the 1st and 16th of every month.
Or, go to Games with Gold on Xbox.com to queue your games up for download to your console.
You'll need an Xbox Live Gold membership to claim your games. Xbox One games are yours to play as long as you have an active Gold membership, and Xbox 360 games are yours to keep."

smh this is just charles barkley "turrable".

lodossrage1334d ago

Come on guys, when are you going to realize not every month is going to give you great stuff.

I say the same thing with PS Plus. Some months are going to be great, some aren't. You have to realize these services have to cater to everyone, so there will always be someone that likes that sport game or movie tie-in game that majority of us (myself included) hate.

TheEnigma3131334d ago

PS plus has way more good months than bad.

Elda1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

That's subjective..an opinion. My opinion it's 50/50.

monkey6021334d ago

I'd fully accept that but its obvious Games With Gold has been consistently terrible because all focus is on GamePass. There's absolutely no denying it!

DJStotty1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

You mean like Sony focuses more on PSNOW than PS+?

What's the difference?

monkey6021333d ago

Plus has had a great year.

I also never mentioned Sony. Some people just can't accept criticism without trying to deflect it

fathertime44641334d ago

Dude I love my Xbox, but its been a long ass time since we got some really good games with live

RpgSama1334d ago

Some people would be happy with just "good" they don't even have to be really good, but they just give trash since at least a year.

RgR1334d ago

Almost Every month of ps plus gives me something to try that's new and interes me
...not the case with Xbox.

DJStotty1334d ago

Slow news week for PS5 probably, commentors start beating old drums when they have no news on their platform.

lodossrage1333d ago

Ok, now only a fanboy would make a comment like that.

lodossrage1333d ago (Edited 1333d ago )

@DJStotty

Sony doesn't focus on PS Now More than PS Plus. I don't know where you got that idea. Look at the games Plus has given compared to GWG and that should tell you all you need to know.

Look, you can defend xbox all you want. But let's be reasonable and factual please.

Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale Discounts: 16th-22nd April 2019

Neil writes: "For the last week or so Xbox One and Xbox 360 gamers have been treated to all manner of discount. See, not content with just dropping the usual bargains found in the Xbox Live Deals With Gold Sale, the Xbox Spring Sale 2019 has also been in place. With that taking on the vast majority of the deals available across the Xbox world, it could well mean that the standard Deals With Gold sale is pushed to one side. But to do that would be wrong, because it would mean missing out on a ton of great discounts, all of which are now available in the latest Xbox Deals With Gold sale for 16th-22nd April 2019."
