No idea when but wow, what a huge grab for the service, if true. I stayed away at launch since it had PS exclusive content and I almost bought on BF deals but I’m glad I held off now!

Stay winning, GamePass

Fuck dammit. I spent $60 on this one and haven't even finished it yet. It kinda felt like a Game Pass game but I ignored my gut!



Remedy is denying the news but that’s normal as they’d want to keep sales going. There’s no time line on when Phil was referring, could be 6 months from now.



"Control" is one of the best games of the year! I totally recommend it for people that didn't play it yet.



wow, I was about to buy it! Amazing news for me

If its a AA/AAA with some hype but not amazing sales, it seems like Gamepass jumps on it. That's how I've been playing Bloodstained. Then you have Metro, Rage 2, DmC5, etc.

I expect sooner than that.

It seems like Gamepass has gotten notable content in under 6 months after release.

It's already been stated by analysts that Game Pass actually boosts hard sales, doesn't hurt them.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.
