Cyberpunk and AC Mirage are playable this weekend no game pass required, only for 5 and 2 hours respectively though.

It's quite ironic that they tried to kill total ownership of physical media and now find themselves struggling because ownership of physical media is on the decline and people are entrenched in their digital libraries. Yeah. I actually think there would have been significantly less moral outrage if the Xbone was just released as a digital only console. It may still have backfired for various practical reasons but at least they would have looked honest and upfront. How different is a digital purchase to a license key on a disc anyway? I wonder if the dreaded backlash from the now almost irrelevant game retailers would have caused as much damage as what actually happened

Yeah I saw that. The Coalition are probably the best UE studio going after Epic themselves, I expect it to look insane. Hopefully the gameplay has evolved.

Would love to see some original xbox games like silent hill 2, still the best way to play SH2 on xbox. Also I hope MS kill off the need for battle net for xbox diablo 4

Silent Hill 2 is a really good shout, especially since the US version is supposed to be BC but not the EU one...

I won’t be satisfied until Xbox understand the concept of love.

Tbf all that email says is that they want to make sure their games will be backward compatible in the future. I really don't expect the 360 BC program to continue at this point.

Agree, with the caveat that I think some Activision 360 games might end up joining the BC program.

Got Ghostbusters remasted in the sale and used rewards point so it was free (its cheaper to buy the remaster than the 360 ver right now)

Anyone else find the new rewards "play a console game" is very flakey to register that you've played a game? The Game pass version comes up before the game has even loaded to a playbale state!

They've finally fixed that. Need to play for at least 15 minutes for it to register. The description looks to have been updated in the last day or so.

Does chasing these rewards not sour your gaming experiences at all? I see notifications for them all the time, but I honestly can’t be fussed to to do any of it. I don’t want my console telling me what to do.

I only get rewards for playing normally. You get some for playing 5 out of 7 weekdays, which I usually do anyway. Then get the one for playing a console game. I can see why people would, but I've never actively chased the rewards.
All I do is see I've earned some and collect them. Nearly at a £10 voucher.

Before the change it was always worth doing the play with friends on pc, that alone got a sizeable sum that paid for game pass.

All the rewards are just play a game and get ach each day (which don't have to do), they have done away with the shoot 30 bad guys in X game quests
