The fucking cost increase is absolutely absurd. If it was like a $5 or even $10 bump, but literally doubling it and then adding another ten bucks on top of that? Come the fuck on.
If you have an xbox, game pass ultimate's 15 a month, covers your xbox live sub, plus gives you a few hundred games to play on your xbox, pc, and streaming onto your phone, plus access to EA's equivalent service. If you're on PC, the $10 version still has all the games on PC and EA's service as well, but obviously you don't need the xbox live subscription. Comes out to 120 or 180 a year, and really makes Nintendo's thing look comparatively pretty crappy, especially at 50 bucks a year. It's only even vaguely tolerable at 20 a year, when you factor in that most of the backup and security features don't require a sub on xbox, and that free-to-play games have free online there as well.

The 30$ bump is really obscene. Like I wish them nothing but evil intent.
And still, motherfuckers are like "oh but it's a third as expensive as Game Pass" as though it's remotely comparable.
I've never had an Xbox system but I've heard that's not a bad deal, don't they throw you full on fairly new free games on occasion for it and stuff?
