    Minecraft, Minecraft Dungeons, there’s a family friendly section in the game pass mobile app.

    Theres a Disney game where you play in toy story etc, very kid friendly. My son loved totally accurate battle simulator for a few months as well. Then of course Minecraft.

    There's constantly Lego games on it too, can't beat them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,817 ✭✭✭the corpo


    Forza 4 pricing oddness, since getting the Series X.

    I went to download the Lego DLC, in game, and I get two options a free option, and 7.99 option. Naturally, I choose the free option, but then it tries to charge me 7.99 anyway. Also, it's not displaying the Euro sign properly.

    Anyone else get this?

    Is any one else having problems with installing games?

    My youngest son is having a fit because Totally Accurate Battle Simulator won't install now. It had been installed but required an update, when he tried to install the update it didn't happen and the game wouldn't launch because it was being updated. In years to come he'll be explaining to his therapist that the descent into madness began at that moment. :D

    I tried the good old turn it off and back on again trick but it didn't work.

    I then uninstalled the game and tried to re-install it. The installation stops before it begins and the according to the more information screen we have version 0.0.0.0 installed and it is ~3GB in size.

    I've looked on the Microsoft forum and have seen a similar issue reported regarding Minecraft but with no resolution.

    Dang and I bought gang beast's in the sale haha ah well I won't complain, ive been lucky with games I was tempted to buy that were added (final fantasy 7, 8 and 9, tales of vesperia etc)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,181 ✭✭✭CinemaGuy45



    Game pass is rubbish sure I mean if you have a few thousand euro you could buy all those games instead of paying €10 a month.:D


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,859 Mod ✭✭✭✭CatInABox


    Shame Control doesn't include the Series version, would have been nice to see what it brings to the table. Anyway, can't complain too much, as I'm paying so little for all the Game Pass games that they almost seem free.

    I wonder if Control is going to be a three month job - be up there until Jan/Feb, then get removed the month the Series Update comes out. Played some of it on PC, but my poor graphics card started wheezing on it, so I know it'll get at least two playthroughs...

    It's not out yet, right? They mightn't want to advertise the Series release until it's actually available.

    My approach with Game Pass and buying games in sales these days is to buy the deluxe version of the game if Im buying it at all. That way I fell relatively justified as the DLC is rarely included on Game Pass. At least that's how I comfort myself.

    I very rarely play the non-AAA stuff but the original Superhot was probably my best gamepass find of the last generation, looking forward to trying the next instalment.

    The you're missing out on one of the games of the generation, The Outer Wilds. Not the Outer Worlds, which was an enjoyable if standard romp, The Outer Wilds is utterly amazing.

    So I went into smiths to pick up a game pass for my kid to go with his Xbox s series, was told they only have them for Xbox 1. Does the same game pass not work on any Xbox?? Where can I get a physical game pass that I can have in a stocking on Xmas morning for a Xbox series s and what’s the difference between ultimate and normal. Thanks

    The version of Control you bought includes the dlc and the Series S|X version when released, the version on Gamepass is the the base game.

    Game Pass works on all Xbox consoles.

    Game Pass Ultimate includes Xbox Gold, Game Pass for PC and EA Play.

    Game Pass only gets you the Game Pass library for Xbox, which doesn't include Gold for online play.

    I know it's for a present but you would be better off getting 2 12 month Gold subscriptions and a 6 month Gold subscription online. By toggling auto renew on and off between inputting codes you will get 33 months of Gold.

    Microsoft do an offer for your first month of Game Pass Ultimate for €1, if you purchase this offer and turn on auto renew again it will convert the previous 33 months of Gold to GPU as well giving you 35 months of the top subscription.

    Thanks I read about the offer but to be honest I just want 3 or 6 month to get started for now and can look at offers after that.
    If I call in into game stop is there a physical card I could buy to put in stocking Xmas morning for the ultimate one

    They will print the code on a receipt that can be put in a stocking. The price of 3 months Gold is €19.99 and 6 months is €29.99 in Smyths and GameStop.

    You can use the GPU upgrade after using this for an additional €1.

    After the subscription has expired you can stack Gold as I mentioned and buy a month of Ultimate at full price to convert to GPU once again.
