I thought this was part of the plan all along, I don't see anything surprising.

I think it’s really ramping up now as they’re going to be improving xCloud speed shortly.

I remember when Phil said this, lemmings didn't believe it.... now it's reconfirmed. 

 

Gamepass will be on Smart TVs, Smart Fridges, smart toasters... you name it 😂🤣

Includes exclusive haptics for their vibrators too.  Xbox is such garbage.

xCloud will be announced on Switch probably in the fall too.

 

Don't worry... you'll get your GP one way or another

I never denied xcloud would come to Switch...

 

 

I denied GamePass would come to Switch where MS would natively release their games on the console...

 

So take that narrative out back and shoot it son

So I was right... you are trying to negate your years of denial.

This is exactly what I predicted they were gonna launch this gen. Came eventually at least. 

[jehurey 3,227]

I called this like three years ago.

 

And let me tell you something.........this is going to cause an immediate spike in GamePass subscriptions.

 

Followed by an immediate wave of cancellations of GamePass.

 

It simply does not work well. And that's with the rather limited number of people online that use it now.

 

Are you telling me that Microsoft is gonna drop an app in the tens of millions of Vizios and Samsung TVs out there?

 

And have their Azure servers get crowded by a bunch of people on promo trials?

 

Absolute recipe for disaster.

 

The headlines will read "GamePass doesn't work." Playing Forza is going to be absolutely laughable.
