By using the copilot feature my girlfriend and I have basically been treating Brothers like a co-op game :p



Correct

That's a cool idea actually, I should've played with my brother like that when I started my run.

I'll try to also finish DmC before my trial expires.

I have two questions, is the subscription renewed automatically?

And can I get the 14 days trial without paying anything?

Sub is renewed automatically, which is why I believe you need to have a card on file. And yes, the 14 day Free Trial is free if you have a card on file.

I had to disable my renewal today after signing up on Thursday, didn't even get an option to just take a 14 day trial.

Alrighty, thank you.

I'll try it out on the 1st of June since I don't have a Gold membership.

There are already 5 games on there I would play fully, problem is I am backlogged a bit so will hold off on this until later this year.

Still have the following games to finish;
Darksider 1 & 2 Definitive Editions
Lost Odyssey (yes I missed this gem back on 360)
MGS V
Metro 2033 & First Light

So will be a while.
 
So I saw the Xbox UK Twitter account promoting Game Pass using the below image

This feels a bit random?

Done. But not many game I want to play and too big backlog so i don't know if I'll continue

Mega man


That's it. All other I have already or don't want to play. Too old games

Using the trial to clean up some easier achievement games. Did Brothers, now I am on to Swapper.

Good luck with "easy'' achievements with the Swapper...I just couldnt wrap my head around the controls and it wants you to do some pretty tricky things...

Enjoying Unwritten Tales 2 and Halo 5 campaign,need to try Max' Curse before my 14 day trial ends.

Can someone confirm if VF5FS has DLC inclcuded? From the main menu, navigate to Terminal, then select Customize. If DLC is unlocked you should be able to make a costume.

So far it's been pretty easy, a bit clunky with the controls

Actually this service could convince me to jump ship and get a ones or a scorpio, for 10euros a month could be wonderful, I'll wait 2 months to see what games they plan to add, seems very nice to have something to play in between the big release
 
Damn, I think the service won't be available for Brazil after all.

That's weird because when it was in preview it was available here, the store page even had the price in R$, and currently there's a link in the subscription tab on library that gives en error.

But Brazil is not listed in the first 30 countries to get it, and they are region locking the purchase.

I'm on pc and started the 14-day trial, but I still have prices on the game pass games, what's up with that? And also, is there a list of playanywhere games on this?

I beat the game and then checked a YouTube guide to how to get the remaining achievements. My GF started laughing at me over the concept of achievements you cheat to get... What could I say?!

So I don't know why but Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition is showing as a Game Pass game for me now despite not being on the A-Z list.

never heard about the cat, apparently
FYI: Microsoft Rewards is now offering Xbox Game Pass. 1 Month or 12 Months.

Anecdotal, but I was getting into Halo 5 matches almost instantly over the weekend. Usually there would be a waiting time around minute or two.

Maybe it's doing okay.

As it stands at the moment I think it's possible to get free Xbox game pass out of these rewards.

You need to earn 6,800 points per month (you'll be level 2 and get a discount from 7k).

You can get 60 per day from mobile search, and 90 a day from PC search...which is only 4,500 per month BUT up until August there is a double points offer by searching via Edge.

I need to test again today but that lets you get another 180 points (it seems separate from the PC search quota) which comes out at 9,900 points per month.

If the PC and Edge searches don't stack then you can still get 60 from mobile and 180 from edge which equates to 7,200 which is more than enough.

All these figures ignore the little quizes they put up each day which seem to be 30 points each. I've only just started so I don't have a feel for how often they put them up, so I haven't included them in any calcs. Obviously one of these a day is another 900 points in a month.

FAKE EDIT - all this assumes you want to get game pass via the monthly method. I just checked and the annual purchase is WAY cheaper. The monthly method is 81k points for a year BUT the annual purchase is only 29k points. Based on this I am going to try and save up and buy the annual pass....will take 4 months to do it though!

I am saving up for the 12 months. I have almost 12k right now. Another month and a half, maybe 2 and i'll have enough. Also remember to look at your emails, points giveaways in those too.
 
I posted a thread here http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=1386261

But if you signed up day 1 for the Game Pass 14 day trial and don't want to keep it it auto renews tomorrow so go to subscriptions and cancel if you haven't already.

You should be teaching people how to subscribe by mistake, not how to cancel their subs. Shame on you!

Someone tweeted Phil about it and he said the service would be here by the end of 2017 tops, don't worry

Yep I get like point emails every other day. Some have like 60, others 100, sometimes they even drop 500 for doing random things. Pretty sweet
