Yeah, I pulled some loophole with gold and live and conversion a few years ago, and it’s absolutely been worth it. The titles I played alone covered the cost of it all, especially because I played games I otherwise wouldn’t have. The game where you drive trucks in mud? Not on my shopping list. But for “free”? I’m in, let’s waste some time.
You used to be able to upgrade your entire gold subscription to gamepass by just paying for a month of gamepass. I know of people that bought multiple years of gold while they were on sale then bought a month of gamepass and boom, multiple years of gamepass for a low price.
I’m not sure if they still do that upgrading thing anymore
I feel like that was a great scheme to both lock a bunch if people into years of gamepass really early on and bump up their numbers, at the same time as rewarding the loyal Xbox Live subscribers who got a great deal out of it. Win - win.
I spent $70 for 3 years of gamepass and online play. I’m more than getting my money’s worth.
I think Gamepass alone is worth it

Today that’d cost you $360 & you’d have to moonwalk away.
I’m out of the loop, going by the MS site price… how’d you score that?
Hmm, CNET recommends CDKeys, I guess they’re not using stolen credit cards then. ($165 for 3yr.)
