Where did you read that it rotates every month?


It said some titles will drop off, didn't specify how many. Also, it only listed 4 old games for the initial offering.

I hope they'll be expanding the launch lineup. If it's just those 4, it's pretty weak.

It didn't say everything rotates in and out monthly,just that things will go in and out on a regular basis. Also they said at launch it will have 100+ titles

I'm not seeing how this isn't just expanding games with gold. I'm not saying it's a bad thing but it seems like you wouldn't get this on top of Xbox gold subscription.

They haven't explicitly said it will be over 100 games at launch. You're inferring that based off the PR speak. I'll wait to see what the listing is.

Yes it is PR because that's all there is right now lol. I highly doubt this Microsoft regime would allow their PR to say "yes it will have 100 games" and then when it gets launched it gets launched with 4.They have all these publishers signing off on it so I would assume they have to know the list already but wont roll that list out until the preview works fine

Xbox Game Pass gives you unlimited access to over 100 Xbox One and backward compatible Xbox 360 games – all for $9.99 per month

Makes it sound like they will. Will have to wait until they say more.

It could mean there are over 100 confirmed for the program in total. It doesn't explicitly say you'll have immediate access to over 100 titles.

Agreed. I was just trying to be realistic. People always getting their hopes up.

If it has a catalog even of 30 decent games at any given moment, it would be worth it since it's only the cost of two new games per year, but if it's gonna be every year of sports games and nothing great, it will be a trash service.

Maybe I'll try Evolve again. Was one of the worst next-gen purchases I've made. I tried like 10 different times to play with 3-4 friends from Jsp. In all those nights, trying for like 1-2 hours each night, were we able to play a single fucking game together. At the best, it would kick everyone but 2 people at the start of the game. Generally it would kick everyone though. I've never wanted to break a disc in half more than I dd that game.
