buy the $1 gamepass deal tomorrow, THEN use your free month. I believe the $1 deal is only for new subscribers, so you can't use it in reverse.Oh nice...i have the month free from the X...I'll hold off to use the code.
So I wasn't expecting that. Makes GamePass a great value with both Halo 5, Gears 4, and ReCore + more. I wonder why they haven't added Quantum Break yet. They need to add their first party games to the system and this is a good move. Gears 4 is only a year old. This makes sense why they want service based games...after they get old, add them to GamePass and get extra money from microtransactions on top of the $120 a year. I am willing to bet that they will announce an exclusive for GamePass at next years E3, it will only make sense to do so.
Also, it's a Play Anywhere title, so you get it on Windows 10 as well, for those PC gamers who want to try it for the cheap...especially with black Friday getting a month of GamePass for $1.
Gears before QB is interesting but I guess they want all those people who are getting XB1 this holiday to play it.
Try to build the franchise again, get some MT $$, shows off the X well and push game pass subs.
Not sure QB would have the same effect although it should be in there
Those points are valid and I agree. I was just stating that i would have thought that MS would get their 1st party games on the service quickly.Gears before QB is interesting but I guess they want all those people who are getting XB1 this holiday to play it.

Just on the Xbox Store?buy the $1 gamepass deal tomorrow, THEN use your free month. I believe the $1 deal is only for new subscribers, so you can't use it in reverse.
Not sure how you can escape it, it's prominent on the store.
Yep, they will make more off mtx adding Gears to Game Pass than they would make off new subscribers adding QB.Gears before QB is interesting but I guess they want all those people who are getting XB1 this holiday to play it.

I think Judgment is on there too. But it's pants.

Not surprised Gears is added, I said on Neogaf it would probably be added in November to steer the headlines from "X game leaves game pass" to "Gears 4 comes to game pass".
December will probably be the first month games get removed since they're adding a big game.

But I was surprised QB wasn't there at launch, so.. I can't imagine it's too far behind, maybe early next year?
subscribe, you will get Halo 5 and many many games that are worth a shot.I'm still deciding between suscribing or just buying Halo 5, which is the game that I want the most.
I guess to have a game during the "dead" part of the year makes sense. They'll probably add games like Ryse, and Ori later on as well. Obviously all their 1st party games will eventually get on the service. A year later really sets a precedent though, but I guess it depends on how well a game sold as well because we don't see Forza Horizon 3 on there...but I guess because it's still selling based off of its DLC. I wouldn't be surprised if they did put it on GamePass in January though to coincide with the X enhancements.I guess as uptake seems kinda slow on the service they are using their titles to push it (which imo are a lot more desirable than most of the other stuff on it) so they will spread them out.
Recore also hit before QB, so I guess they're saving that for later

That's great for people getting the One X during the holidays!
It's actually irrelevant to people getting the X since that comes with a month that is not stackable with this deal I just found out.
In a related note, first person to message me gets a 1 month sub to game pass code.
Is it, though? I think you could just not use your 1 month code, subscribe for 1 month using the 1$ deal since your account never had Game Pass, turn off auto renew, and when the month is over you use the code. 2 months, 1$.
