At one point online gaming on consoles was free...

Is this designed to push more people to game pass? Does games pass include online?

I like how Microsoft shoves its dick on console players' ass with paid online while the exact same games don't have any extra charges to play online in PC. And they (console fanboys) totally deserve it.

Yes. Gamepass includes gold. Which is why they are making it the same price. 6 months of gamepass is 59.99.

Just looked it up. Holy shit your right!!
Thats not good.
They should have got rid of the base gamepass, and just made ultimate the main sub. Then non of this would be as messy as it is.

Everyone saw where this was going ..
So Pay $180 a year for Gamepass or $120 a year for Gold.
I have my PS+ paid up for 5 Years and I Averaged about $30 a year. I expect Sony to raise prices at some point and I am just getting ahead of the game.

Sony should keep their service the same price and then they can really hammer MS.

$120 a year to play F2P Fortnite.

I love how people were so disillusioned into thinking “Microsoft loves gamers” that they thought them removing the 12 month XBL Gold plan meant XBL Gold was going free. Like how much of the Kool-Aid are you drinking from Phil Spencer????

I'm maxed out with 3 years of gamepass ultimate but this is a really disappointing move by MS. I guess I have to max out my PS Plus sooner rather than later too.

Sounds about right. Pay $120 a year to play 'free' games. Parents will love that concept.

Just another reason to stick to PC (or ps to a lesser degree)
I imagine they will for awhile before pulling a Samsung and upping their prices a year from now.

Y’all thought you weren’t paying for that Bethesda acquisition, huh? Lmaooooo
www.google.com
Xbox could recoup $7.5 billion Bethesda purchase without putting games on PlayStation, says Phil Spencer
Microsoft can afford the $7.5 billion purchase price all on its own.

It always cracks me up when companies do that. Like, look at that value! Oh wait, no way in hell I'd have paid that much for that old-ass game.

Why is it twice as much as the competitor with bad free games?

Hold up - I thought Gold was going away - and now this?
The free games are irrelevant to me - I already buy exactly what I want to play.
Xbox is where I do my online gaming - $60 for 6 months is fucking horrible.

The games are bad but tbf I don’t get disconnected on xbl anywhere near as frequently as on PSN
and xbox party chat is vastly superior to playstation chat. (Even on ps5 where it’s somehow worse. You have to create a menu to a menu from a menu and Theres no way to reallocate in-game audio to the tv and keep chat in the headset whereas on xbo you just toggle an option in the party settings)

So wait is this the price for just online access plus games with gold or does it come with gamepass access too? Cause if it's just online access how much more is it for gamepass 6months?
Also no year sub price hike?

I don't get disconnected on PSN either. I've got both systems and play online on both quite regularly.

I bought that game for like $3 on GOG. This is such a ripoff.
I feel bad for actual fans (not fanboys) of Xbox. This is such a dick move.
Gigaboots predicted this would happen months ago. It was at the time when Jeff Grubb made that dumb tweet of Xbox Live going away.

I hard locked in Yakuza Like a Dragon by checking an online leaderboard on accident in Dragon Kart. Sounds like they aren't really bringing it with XBL either from what I've seen.
