FIfa 20 has been available for months.

Fifa 21 has 10 hour trail but will be free next year.

I'm currently playing Mass Effect and never played it before and I am loving it. Free as well on Game Pass and so is the second and third due to EA access. So I have a tonne to play over the next while.

Graphics aren't great on my 4k tv though and if I was to read old posts from release everyone comments how good the graphics are.

Excellent games, there's a good step up in graphics on the second one, but that's because they reduced the scope of it. A much better game as a result though, ME2 is one of my favourite games of all time.

I've read elsewhere that it does seem to be available already though, so....

Taken into consideration the change of remaining time from eapass to gamepass ultimate has anyone tried stacking up time to their current eapass?
Im sooo much tempted to buy 2 years of ea for 45 euros that will convert to 8 months of gpu if im not wrong...

Any ideas?

I'm not sure if you can stll subscribe to EA Play.

But wouldn't the other method of stacking Xbox Gold work out better?

I have a current gpu and an ea.

I cannot buy gold i believe.

I can find ea pass on cdkeys for 23 a year. Also amazon sells them for 20 pounds

How long is left on your subscription? Currently once your Sub expires, you can buy and stack up to 3 years of XBLG preferably the Brazilian version. Redeem it using a VPN on a browser.
As it's much cheaper. Sites like CDkeys and Eneba are usually the cheapest.
Then you can convert it to GPU for €12.99 and get 3 years of GPU/EA.

I'm really enjoying it now more so than when I was a hour or two into it. They don't hold your hand either. You have to search yourself on where to go. The combat is difficult enough too and if you didn't save you are brought back a fair bit and have to do it all again but I now save as much as I can sometimes the save feature is greyed out which is annoying. And the camera spinning after you die is dizzying. I have a hold of the the menus and skill points. It took me a while before I got used them. I was just going through the menus and seen I had a tonne of skill points. I also have a hold of the unlocking crates or doors now at the start of the game (first level really) I messed up unlocking them a fair few times.

One of my favourite series in gaming. First one hasn't aged well graphically but as mentioned above second and third are a big jump up. Think ME2 is my favourite. Must download them again.

Noticed when I clicked into gamepass on the console there's a weekly competition now. This week it's a Galaxy Note 20 ..... fingers crossed for me

All you have to do is enter and download the gamepass mobile app.

Loved them all but took time off from Andromeda. Might go back some day. It's massive.

Signed up to GPU last night. When I look at EA Play it's asking me to take out another sub for that and not letting me play or install the games as part of my GPU sub. Presume I have to wait until November when it officially launches? Was hoping it would work when I saw posters above saying they normally had EA Play included.

EA Play will be part of Game Pass Ultimate from 10. November according to Microsoft. If you have any EA Play in an existing subscription at that point, over 50 days, it will transfer to be part of you GPU subscription at a rate of 3:1.

Anyone looking for Xbox Live codes?

I have 3 Brazilian ones there if anyone wants to buy them? Cost me 90 quid will show you the receipt. Sell them all for 70 or 25 each. Revolut job.

I have a series s pre-ordered as I wanted it for gamepass but going to cancel it as I have a ps5 ordered too and I know I won't play both.

Plus that 1tb drive for extra storage they are selling put me right off seeing as it costs the same as the console

bastids

Might as well buy the X for the same price down the line.

I thought you could only do this one per account?

Nope, have a look back through the thread. You can only use the special £€1 upgrade offer once but once your GPU sub has expired, you can stack XBLG again and convert by just buying/redeeming a 1 month sub of GPU

Birneybau · 29-10-2020 07:30PM

*Actual Game Pass Content post*

Remastered versions of 3 Lucasarts games up today, Day of The Tentacle, Full Throttle and Grim Fandango.

Also, 4 'Five Nights At Freddy's' games of which I know nothing.

Just to go back on this. You can download them now but can't play them. It looks like you can play them but it's only after you download them it says you can't play them.

Yep I downloaded UFC 3 and sat down to give it a spin only to be sadly disappointed and told to wait till November 10th

I bought 3 x 12 month EA subscriptions (the 5 500,00 HUF option) from Microsoft Hungary for practically €45. Added them one by one, turning off automatic renewal each time - so I'm led to believe that a year of EA transfers to 4 months of GamePass Ultimate.

If this is the case then I'll get a year of GPU for €45 - not bad at all.

Didn't use a VPN or any of that carry on either.

It will convert to a little less than that, the first 60 days gets dumped then it converts the rest of your time 3:1 to GPU. 3 years EA sub will convert to 11 months and 10 days.
