I wonder why they still advertise it as "over 100 games to play" when they could use 200 now.

Once you say over 200...you can't go back to 100. Underpromise and overdeliver. Also, it's supposed to be a curated experience so you don't want to get too large a library (outside of the exclusives that will come from MS).

Wait...there has to be a numerical value for the number of achievements possible, it can't be infinite.

17 added day of launch is pretty impressive for a newish service in a year where Microsoft only published 3 of those.

Gamepass has been particularly great for trying out games I probably wouldn't have ever bought. Just signed up for $1 for a month, and I previously had already done a "$1 for 1 month" deal.

Been pretty handy so far.

Stacked alot of months for real cheap earlier this year so it'll keep rolling for a while yet

There was an interview recently where they said the focus on Game Pass is it being a curated service with quality and diversity taking priority over quantity. They did some market research where if you say it has a ridiculous number of games there's 1) an assumption they'll all be shit and/or 2) that you'd never have time to play them all which can actually be off putting to potential subscribers.

Best subscription in gaming without question. Ybarra was also hyping up January releases while acknowledging December's legendaryness which makes me wonder wtf do they have planned for January, lol.

All I know is that I bought in. Just finished Ashen and loved it. One of the best RPG games this generation.
