Darksiders 3 has a surprising amount of framerate issues for a game that doesn't seem like it should be particularly demanding

Halo Reach is here! and so is Halo:MCC on PC.



OMG Reach is here for PC, I'm so happy



Everyone was waiting for Reach today but I was looking forward to playing Phoenix Point but it's not releasing today on Gamepass they tweeted out saying it will be within the next week. They either messed up with sending it for cert or an intentional delay (hopefully not ) in the hopes more people will buy it on EGS.

Shame but ok. Will wait for the X1 release as my Win 10 laptop can't run shit.

so what are some good available deals?

Assuming the convert gold to gamepass ultimate is still on you should do that.

Shopto.net sell 12 months of gold for £37.85. Add that to your account, then get an extra month for turning on recurring billing. Then pay £1 to upgrade to Gamepass Ultimate. For a total of £38.85 you've just got 14 months of gamepass ultimate.

Activate two 12 month codes before upgrading (and turn off recurring between activating 1st and 2nd code to get another free month) and you can get 27 months of Ultimate for £76.70

Barkley already mentioned the best option.

1. Get a gold membership (look for cheap deals)
2. turn on recurring billing - you will get an additional month
3. turn off recurring billing
4. Buy another code for gold membership (repeat steps 2-4; I think the maximum amount you can have is 36 months)
5. Convert Gold to Game Pass Ultimate for $1, €1, £1
6. Optional: Use the free 3 months Discord Nitro Deal (need to have Game Pass Ultimate), don't forget to cancel afterwards and receive 2 months Game Pass Ultimate in return!

Important: The 1:1 Gold to Game Pass Ultimate conversion for $1, €1, £1 can only be done ONCE.
Don't waste it by using a 3 months Gold code first and then convert it to GP Ultimate or by using the 3 months GP Ultimate for $1, €1, £1 offer that's going on right now. I'm not 100% sure about the conversion rate afterwards but I think it's 3 months Gold = 1 month Game Pass Ultimate.
