I'm down for all digital. PC games are already there. I would of course want the option to buy physical, but for me personally, I prefer all digital.And I'm still cool with that

I won't forget E3 2013
They couldn't include it with the price of XBL Gold?
But I'd imagine you download the games so it's infinitely better.
And bring it on I say. The people that cried about this in 2013 can get fucked.
not sure I really like it
1) 120 a year is a hit expensive for a rental service. we don't get to own the games.
2) Why games have to be rotated out? how long does a game last in the list. very shady imo
3) would ms now give out a lesser game for its xbox gold subs? because it now has to serve a higher tier subs?
Well about that...

That announced the discontinuation of the service on almost everything other than ps4 and Windows PC. It's not going well for PS now
If this gave 20% off any new game and not just games that are in the rotation, I'd probably subscribe for a couple months here and there.
As it is though, I think this is probably great for new Xbox owners, but for longtime fans I don't really see how they wouldn't already own a lot of the games being offered.
We'll see what happens, EA access gives you 10% off any EA purchase, maybe MS will let publishers do the same through this program.

Great idea. Makes PS Plus and PS Now look pretty weak by comparison.
Is this in addition to XBL Gold? So you have to have both to play something like NBA2K online?
Well their page explicitly says that it's 20% off games and 10% off the DLC while a game is in their rotation.
So that kind of tells you it won't be like EA's Vault.
I would actually expect Microsoft's own games to be part of this right away though.

I can understand PS Now, but how does it make PS Plus look weak?
This is more games, and instantly. PS Plus is great if you've been there since the beginning. But if you joined today you won't find nearly the same value.

PS+ also doesn't cost an extra $120 a year on top of itself.This is more games, and instantly. PS Plus is great if you've been there since the beginning. But if you joined today you won't find nearly the same value.
Thankfully Sony will protect us from these choices like they have for EA AccessPS+ also doesn't cost an extra $120 a year on top of itself.

Your dream has come true
All the sports games are now not in my ready to install list

that membership tab is literally all you see there, 9 games and links to the different apps
I'm sure it will be revoked, but you can extend the game pass for free for months right now.
Sadly this is how most gamers view their games. This is GAF, so most of us are an exception, but GameStop has been profiting for years off of players who finish a game and get rid of it immediately after. We are heading towards gaming as a service because companies view that as a more reliable method of bringing in revenue (I suppose it kind of is). It sucks, but I don't see any way to avoid it.
As cool as this is, it's a sign that MS are trying to sneak all digital future in through the back door imo. I won't forget E3 2013
Even on Neogaf I'd say the majority don't care about owning their games, just look at the positive response in this thread. It's a sad future (possible) ahead of us.
