Carto is a fantastic and clever little indie puzzle game. Its not a big game and I'd recommend it before it disappears.

Into The Pit is definitely something. Not a good something though. These new-wave roguelike shooters tend to be more miss than hit. they might as well rename gamepass as roguelike-pass at this rate

Echo generation demo seemed like quirky turn based RPG light with a few issues. there was a lot of good feedback about the demo regarding the timing of the combat and ugly blur effect. The full game the devs have ignored all that and seemed to make the combat timing worse from the demo. Thanks morons!

Completed I Am Fish with the lad yesterday. Pleasant little game, sort of Finding Nemo meets Super Monkey Ball. Let down by the controls at times which make it a frustrating experience, but enjoyable for the most part.

Moonglow Bay is up. Seems ok from what little time I've spent with it.

Just tried Into the Pit, and there's a nice Hexen vibe there, but the horrible grainy psychedelic screen effect is most off putting.

The screen tearing in Moonglow Bay hurts my eyes.

Project Wingman was already on PC gamepass but they never announced it was coming to console GP.
I mentioned Backbone before, now on consoles. The first chapter is good but it really goes down hill as it becomes more of visual novel and really bad one. (also the devs are arsehats on steam)
Have forbidden city download, will make a start this weekend, heard good things

I tried Porject Wingman on PC and it didn't float my boat - can't remember why, mind you. Only that it was one of the quickest uninstalls I'd ever done. Most likely some techinical oddity.
Speaking of uninstalls, all hail Game Pass for letting me play Age of Empires IV and remind myself that I can't be faffed with any of that any more. Probably doesn't help that I never played the originals. I was always more of a Dune II/Warcraft/Starcraft/C&C kinda guy. Historical settings ain't my RTS bag, it seems.

Also cloud gaming now on console (don't think it was until today but I might have just missed it) so if you want to give things a quick go before downloading, that's a good option.

Project Wingman early access on steam had no controls set up and doing it manually sucked. VR is pretty good on it tho.

Have got a lot more value out of gamepass PC recently, enjoyed Subnautica Below Zero and have spent many hours on Crusader Kings 3 which I wouldn't have taken a punt on otherwise. Had a quick go on AoE4 this morning and it looks pretty polished, just not sure I can be arsed with all the clicking.

Moving out was fun when I played it on gamepass the other xbox one game is Kingdom Two Crowns (maybe dead lands is its name in another country?)
360 games are fine but very old and played them before.

bichii buy up to 3 years of Gold codes from somewhere like CdKeys, add to the account, then convert it to Ultimate by buying 1 month of Ultimate. There are more detailed guides earlier in this thread but that's the jist.

That probably just means you'll have to pay for one month of Ultimate at full price, rather than getting it for £1. Just depends what you're offered once the Gold is on the account.

All the gold membership codes say for Xbox one and 360. Still okay on the series models?

I'm not taking responsibility for which sites you trust with your money but yes, that looks like the right thing to buy, and the price is about what you'd expect.

Yes, that Xbox Live Gold code will do just fine... As hedben says, get some of these (up to 3 years is fine) and once you redeem them for Xbox Gold, slap an Xbox GamePass Ultimate code on top, like this one:
The whole sub will turn into Xbox GamePass Ultimate; just did it at the start of this month, there's a port of mine on the previous page of this very thread

Yes just search earlier in this thread for how to buy Gold and convert it to GP Ultimate.
You MUST make sure you don't have an active Game Pass subscription before you start adding Gold memberships though. You can cancel your Game Pass subscription outright, there and then, or just let it expire.
I bought 3x 12mth Gold subscriptions, then just a cheap £4 7 day GP Ultimate subscription (from eneba.com). Was £120 in total for 3 years GP Ultimate.
You could do it even cheaper (around £80) if you buy Turkish Gold memberships and redeem them using a VPN, but there's a slight risk it may not work, I guess. There's some good info over on hotukdeals.
