Yeah, although it seemed like the original goal was to make it a sort of “Netflix for games” subscription service where you’d get the games for free so long as you kept paying your $10/month or whatever. Apple has been trying to do a similar thing with their Apple Arcade. Unfortunately the included games were mostly “B” titles, with the exception of PUBG, so you still needed to pay to purchase the good stuff.
- mattlondon 3y agoYeah totally right. FWIW I pair Xbox game pass (a subscription service like netflix) with Geforce now and it is great. Xbox game pass has some good titles included legit AAA things (unlike stadia) I was looking at prices for a new gaming laptop, and realised that it was perhaps 4 or 5 or more years of subscription fees, and that I could just use a lightweight X1 instead. Perfect
