Does live gold not exist anymore? Odd it wasn't an option on the console. Or is it the same nowadays, Live gold and regular gamepass.

I'm so confused lol. Now google tells me live gold is 12.99 a month here

I guess they reversed it, it's 11.99 / month on xbox.com

I get it now:
Live Gold: 11.99
Gamepass without online: 11.99
Gamepass PC: 11.99
Gamepass ultimate: 16.99

So pretty much still CAD 144 a year to play online plus 13% tax. CDKeys sells 12 months for CAD 65, much better deal if reliable. Still more than ps+ though, but I top that up on Black Friday. XBox should have deals on Black Friday as well.

I guess I'll wait for a free online weekend to test out the online waters in Forza. Not much point subscribing for one game only to find out it's just as big as a shit show online as in GT7!

Not sure if it still works but you might be able to convert your XBL Gold to GP Ultimate for CAD 1.

They never got rid of that promotion for whatever reason.

Yeah I was looking at that, then I reminded myself of my giant backlog and love of physical games and put it out of my head again :)
