I can’t remember where it posted or mentioned @GregRedd, but was there anything more about the Game Pass tiers or subscription plans?

Yeah, I was a bit disappointed that it didn’t come up. It was a mention in that news snippet about Back 4 Blood:
Earlier this week Xbox’s experiences and platforms boss Liz Hamren hinted at the potential introduction of cheaper Game Pass tiers during a video presentation to media and analysts.
“We need to innovate to bring our games and services to more people around the world. And we’re investigating how to introduce new subscription offerings for Xbox Game Pass,” she said.
“The point is that we’re being creative and dynamic in thinking about how to deliver the joy and community of gaming to everyone on the planet across devices, geographies, and financial realities.”
To be fair, I guess, she doesn’t say anything about making a public announcement about it…
Maybe we can get that My Broadband bigwig Editor chap, @SigStart, to assign a reporter into finding stuff out from MS SA for us?
- Cheaper Game Pass regional pricing - when?
- More MS and Xbox Studios multiplayer game servers on their Azure Servers!
- Microsoft Rewards available in SA - when?!
- Etc.

Microsoft South Africa is tight-lipped about everything, but maybe we’ll have some luck with Microsoft Global / HQ

Yeah, do that. And tell them to tell MS SA to loosen their lips a little!

Amazing line-up! Now where do I subscribe for extra hours in the day to be able to play them all?
In terms of pricing I have no regrets over R150 a month for ultimate. Sure I could have bought Minecraft for the kids by now, but on the PC side I’ve certainly got value for money. I also enjoy the fact that I can try out a game that I’d ordinarily not buy, since the only cost after the sub is uncapped bandwidth (so nothing). I also like the fact that for the first time in ages I can be part of that new game release hype. What with the price of games these days (apart from good regional pricing on Steam) I really can’t afford to get games at release and rather wait for the deep discounts. Now I can be just as excited about a new release as anyone else

Couple of new fan-made sites that Game Pass subscribers will definitely find useful.
Firstly, Game Pass Counter, which does exactly what its name suggests: keeps a track and tally of all the Game Pass games in various categories:
Below each count the View List expands a text list of all the games. Links in the list should take you to the Windows Store from where you should be able to request a remote installation.
Then an even more complex and detailed site: Game Passport. It is a complete Xbox Game Pass Library browser with full search and filtering options, which shows both Metacritic scores for the game (if available) and the Time to Beat. Links directly to both those sites and to the Store page for the game are also included.
Both are really good sites for sifting through the growing library of Game Pass games.

Stupid work internets.
This site sounds like its ideal for me, since I really struggle with the Windows Xbox client’s search functionality.

Does it classify all gaming sites as “gambling” or is it one of those that sees the word “game” in a url and that’s enough?

Both Steam and Epic Games’ sites opened up, so I think its just our IT dept. with their heads stuck in the usual sunless places.
