    Just a quick question about Xbox game pass ultimate, on xbox live it says its only 1 euro to join for a month then 12.99 after. Does that mean I can join it for just 1 euro and download a few full games for free then after after a month cancel it and keep the few games I downloaded ? I want to get halo master chief collection

    No, its like netflix, but theres a way to get it for very cheap if you thing ist something you'd use.

    1. buy prepaid xbox live subscription from cdkeys - these can be bought in 12 month cards, and you can stack 3 years worth of them.
    2. apply these to your account
    3. upgrade to game pass ultimate for €1
    4, you now have 3 years of 'netflix for games' for xbox, pc, games streaming to your phone via xcloud, and your xbox live subscription for under €100 if you buy the prepaid cards at a good price.

    Its crazy value.

    Will that work if you were previously a subscriber to Ultimate but then cancelled it?

    As long as you're not a current subscriber, I think it will work but you might have to pay €13 instead of 1 for the extension which is still insanely good

    Yeah thats it, I did it for my brothers account a while back, he only converted one year and used the €1 deal last year. This time, let it expire and stacked a few years and also bought a code for 1 month of ultimate for €8 I think it was and converted it.
