Separate sub. Think of it like PS Plus but a billion games including day 1 exclusives like Forza and Halo etc. Also unlike PS Plus its over 100+ games at anyone time.yes…. As a primarily PlayStation based gamer I don’t know the ecosystem but is this not on game pass and in owning an Xbox pretty much inherently means you have gamepass or is that not the case?
This right here.If I'm buying day one, usually preorder a few days before release. For goodies and the preload.

I never preordered anything for years.
I got sucked into the hype of cyberpunk.
I preordered cyberpunk.
I will never preorder again.
Why buy it when it's 'free' with $9.99 GamepassIt is that much I wait for this game (Forza Horizon 5)- it is destined to be a hit.
What do you think in general about pre-ordering? I was always against it, simply there was no real incentive or reason to buy a game before it is out, until yesterday...
It’s good for people with shitty internet connections. Like me. I can pre-load a game weeks in advance.pre-ordering a digital game LOL? Any needs?
GamePass has around 350games, with many edition of the same game to pad the library.Separate sub. Think of it like PS Plus but a billion games including day 1 exclusives like Forza and Halo etc. Also unlike PS Plus its over 100+ games at anyone time.
Why did you preorder when it's literally a day 1 GP release. That's madness.

Why not just pay another $60 and get Gamepass. Forza 5 is included day 1.
I understand it is a separate sub, but does it not make monetary sense to have gamepass? Or do you value owning that game forever? That is something I value and one of the reasons I do not overly like gamepass, this is not a troll or anything, I do just like to own my purchases outright in all walks of life, not just in gaming.

For all the people wondering why buy Forza Horizon 5 when it's going to release day one on Game Pass. Well, for me it's because it's my favourite franchise and so it's worth it for the hundreds of hours of enjoyment it's going to give me and I like to own the Forza games as I play through them over the whole course of a generation. Also it kinda was free because I purchased it with a giftcard I redeemed with points I saved through MS Rewards.
Also having a Game Pass subscription doesn't mean that I stopped buying games at all, that's such a misconception! Game Pass prevented me wasting money on something I'm not even sure about, but it also exposed me to games that I probably wouldn't have tried before and most of the time if I enjoyed such a game I seek out to buy the previous games like I did after I played through Yakuza Like a Dragon and Kingdom Hearts 3 or if I happen to like the game just purchase it when I see it on sale later like MLB The Show, Wreckfest, Dragon Quest IX etc.
You had me until Dark Souls 2. It’s my favourite from the Dark Souls series. Anyway, can’t wait for Elden Ring digital pre-order!I pre-order all souls games. From Software can do no wrong. Even Dark Souls 2, arguably the worst of the series, was still a good game when viewed in a vacuum.
I agree with this. They should give you a, I don’t know, 10% discount at least.I think preordering a digital product is the dumbest shit ever unless they give you a financial incentive for doing so.
