Personally, I don't care about Xbox anymore.
Their way forward is play anywhere, subscription services and streaming games which I am totally not interested in.
Maybe that is the future, but for the forceable future Sony is doing exactly the way i want. The traditional way of buying and owning games.
Sure gamepass is only an option and you can still buy games separately.
But it feels like Microsoft is really pushing hard for gamepass and might eventually go complete subscription only like Netflix.
Gamepass is a great service but it's not for me. I like to own my games instead of paying monthly fee and not owning them.
