Doom, CoD, Oblivion, Minecraft would have charted regardless if MS bought them or not. CoD and Minecraft especially have charted for how many months in a row?

The only major difference is Forza Horizon 5. But right now is a slow time so any decent game should chart above GTA V.

Err.. that's not the point. Who made these games, and who bought who (and when) is irrelevant. The point is that this games ARE in Game Pass, and yet, Sony fans love to keep repeating (nonchalantly and shamelessly) the line: "There is nothing worth playing on GP". As if we couldn't see the games that they buy every single month.

Personally, I think there is nothing on GP worth paying the $15-$17 monthly fee.

That is despite my most played games in the last 4 years being MS/ Gamepass games.
