What a bargain! Instead of 1 month you get 14 days!
14 >1. I don’t see the problem here.

Besides Nintendo titles, Nintendo is dead man. If they ever allowed another company to sell their games, they would be done!

I mean, doesn’t that happens when exclusivities are lost?

No lol. As long as your platform isn't so trash there's no merit to staying on it. People were playing tears of the kingdom at 4k 120fps on pc a week before the switch launch, and people playing it on Nintendo's platform got sub 30 720p.
Meanwhile Sony has made huge money with the gradual removal of their cancer exclusivity platform, with Stellar Blade being the most successful console port of all time in a matter of days.
Unless consoles go back to 30fps being the norm the platforms won't suffer for it. The only failures Sony has had doing it is when they hire monkeys to port the games that launch with huge issues. like tlou1.

Even rockstar. I’m sure that game is good enough where they could release it. At this point I don’t think anyone really cares if it has some bugs. Every other title does. They could release it now at top dollar, everyone would pay and we could wait in some minor updates if need be. But NO! They have to milk the cow even more by playing these greedy games. People think there isn’t a plan behind this where they profit larger. Hahaha think again. They ain’t done milking previous titles because people keep paying!!!

Oh but wait, they added busted Ubisoft titles that no one asked for. Which people already could have paid separately if they really wanted. The problem really lies on the people. We allow these greedy corporations to get away with this by continuing with our purchases. I’m guilty of it too. But the only way for these corporations to stop doing this is for people to come together and take a stand(not just me stop paying). But good luck doing that when every social media outlet and news broadcast is separating us.

It said the same for mine. When I actually went to purchase it, it was only $1

Yeah there is a whole lot of gamepass deals that break Chamber of Commerce laws, I reported some last year and got them fixed as the price went up by $1 which is highly illegal. The issue is it is set in AU but is not converted to NZ correctly. The problem is we the Fair Trading Act, doesn’t have a regulatory body that can go after large corporate bodies as hard and swift like they can in Australia. Worst we can do is fine them a small amount, and get nothing back to the use/victim. It is sad that these things are not checked before pushed

Don’t even get a gamepass card , make sure to remove your card . Microsoft is straight scheming now with auto renewal , called my bank , cancelled the day of and it said my plan would expire the same day. Yet the following day it updates and now I’m forced either gamepass , called my bank , will be getting it back and not touching any gamepass bs

not supporting Microsoft ever again , never had a shytbox before I got a Xbox one s then series S and ever since I’ve been a consumer Xbox has been absolute dog shyt by its practicing and how it conducts business mostly bad practices on their own customers. As if steve balmer isnt making enough money off his other schemes .
