    I am hoping we get a big 2nd half of February as this half is bad. ID@Xbox show should have a few surprises. But getting, what, 3 new games to the service in the first half the month while losing 7 hurts (Avowed is 2nd half).

    One of the games, as has been mentioned, was on games with gold. Long time users should already have access. Far cry is an older title and a shorter/cheaper expand-alone game that goes on sale for $8 regularly. It's also my least favorite Far Cry since Primal. Madden is part of EA play. If you like Madden cool, but otherwise meh.

    If Starfield is going on Standard, they must have squeezed the juice as much as they can. Probably a safe bet we see it on PS5 this year. I wonder about Switch 2 though, will the CPU be able to handle all the physics/1000 simulated hotdogs in a ship cabin etc? 😅

    Thank you everyone who gave their feedback on ''Crab Souls'' I think I'll give it a try before Pirate Yakuza gets released

    Good job Microsoft two really new games coming first half. Making the worst deal in gaming a reality. 2025 has been worse the worse year yet for Gamepass and we are not even fully into the 2nd month yet.
    I wouldnt call 2025 a bad year. Ninja Gaiden really sealed it for me as well as other games that came at the second half of last month.
    "Ninja Gaiden 4" feels like a wildcard tbh with the exodus at Platinum. Could go either way.

    I believe he meant the remake, and while remake is okay, og game is cheaper, runs good via backwards compatibility and has no compromises towards player

    My important question to me is: can I finish Snipe Elite Resistance before Avowed comes out?
    Would you kindly...

    Where are the call of duty games? I'm tired of waiting.
    And yes... Fire Phil Spencer, fire everyone involved for the demise of the Xbox as a superior gaming console.

    People are still buying those CODs, so they won't bother to add them, let alone fix modded lobbies and unobtainable achievements

    You are living in a fantasy world if you think you are ever going to see the older Call of Duty titles on GamePass. Doesn't make financial sense for Microsoft to do so.

    Avowed on it's own is more than good enough for me personally. I'd have almost certainly had it pre-ordered if GP didn't exist so that's £60-70 saved immediately.

    Never heard of Avowed before. Might give it a go if the reviews are alright. Hope the second wave has more games than this one.

    What about Bethesda games that were added almost immediately? Also there's still no Crash 4, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2, Singularity, Prototype, Diablo 2 Resurrected and that's just what I remembered instantly

    Here's hoping they'll add that supposed "new game+" to Another Crab's Treasure that has different enemy placement and other changes(I think they also mentioned new shells)while it's back on gamepass.

    I just checked, the content update is called "year of the Crab"
    This is an excerpt: Features: Remixed encounters, new Stowaways, harder enemies, potential boss rushes, new unlockable outfits, and a more challenging Snail

    It's also going to be a free update which is nice.

    We lose more games than what we get. Best deal in gaming. Sarcasm aside, gonna start Another Crab's Treasure, but I really hope Avowed makes it up for it.

    Something's not right, but I don't know what exactly is....
    (Jokes aside, what makes adding those exact CODs hard if they're part of PS Plus)
