i just heard the news that xbox game pass ultimate is getting a price drop, and i'm kinda stoked about it. the new price is $23 a month, which is a decent decrease from the previous $30. this change is apparently thanks to the new xbox ceo, asha sharma, who seems to be shaking things up.
so, what's the catch? well, it looks like this new price tier won't include call of duty games on their launch days. but honestly, i don't play call of duty that much, so this doesn't really affect me. i'm sure there are plenty of other gamers out there who feel the same way. it's nice to see xbox listening to its users and making changes to benefit the majority.
i've been thinking about this news, and it seems like it might be a sign of bigger changes to come. apparently, there was some kind of internal memo that got "leaked" recently, talking about how the price of game pass had gotten too high. it feels like this price drop is just the beginning, and i'm a bit worried about what's next. i've heard rumors about ads being introduced to game pass, which could be pretty annoying.
i mean, i get it - ads can be a way for companies to make money without raising prices. but i don't want to be in the middle of a gaming session and have some ad pop up and interrupt me. there are some games that already have ads, but they're usually not too intrusive. for example, some games have in-game stores or sponsored items that don't really bother me. but video ads or banner ads that interrupt gameplay? no thanks.
