I had criticism for the gears 5 monetization and xbox fans defended it like Leonidas and the 300. I'm getting too old to care about gaming like I used to anyway.
They could've made GamePass just a catalogue of games without the promise of day 1 for all their games. Microsoft could've made it so that all first party games would've come to the service a year after release. But like you said, they just got too invested in it and maybe Phil didn't want to admit defeat so he doubled down on it.
He wants all the casuals to subscribe on Xbox or PC. Madden, MLB, NBA, Fifa, all the sports games are already on it, now Black Ops 6. I say good riddance, we dont need 100 million casuals & 20 million gamers for Sony to be successful.
It wouldn't have sold. They built it up on 1st party day 1. They should have made it 1st party titles and new releases on game-pass for first 7 days of release only, and then you get a 10% coupon to buy the title digitally after that week. They are low IQ businessmen imo, no creativity and no idea how to putout great titles.

I don't think so, that would be harmful for Nintendo and PlayStation since they would lose sales on their own store. I think it would be cool if Xbox became a game-focused OS, so we could get a console experience on PCs like the Steam Deck does with Steam OS.
The fact of the matter is that Netflix and Hulu and those other video streaming services have shown that subscription service isn't sustainable. Why on earth would we think that the same model for a more expensive to produce medium would do any better?
I mean, obviously they are going to introduce a higher tier. I’d be seriously disappointed in them if they didn’t. Adding Activision games is a whole other layer, like adding EA play. There’s major value there
I love game pass. Manor Lords, Palworld, Starfield, Persona 3 Reloaded just to name a few games I have played in 2024. I expected the service to go up just like every where else. To me nothing wrong with internal talking with in Xbox about what to do with call of duty.
I think the funny thing is that Microsoft is doing the exact same thing did when Bobby Kotick grew and acquired Blizzard and other Studios under Activision and made studios consolidate to support their cash cow franchises and it seems like Microsoft is doing same thing lol. Microsoft might as well rehire Kotick so they can make money as he did that very well
Tier system for just COD makes no sense. People can just buy COD for full price and subscribe to basic gamepass. Unless basic gamepass doesn't include day 1 anymore
I think too many people gripe that game pass is not a value. We have games to play until eternity. We don't even have to buy games anymore. There are so many on the platform. I don't want to buy a cod, Madden or 2k every year. they don't change that much. The same black ops mechanics from 2009 are almost the same. Same with sports and racing games. Just new fields or tracks. Subscriptions are perfect for casuals. If they increase the price it falls in line with all sub services.
@@ronnieb7989 I can see it perfect for casuals, but the issue is that currently there are no consistent new content to keep them subscribed. That's why Netflix is successful over other streaming services, they have new content coming in each week as opposed to one hit series every month or so Game pass tend to bring new content mostly from their back catalog. They don't even have a hit must play game every month. The only big games they had last year was red fall, starfield, hifi rush and diablo 4. All were months apart for the most part. For a subscription service to be successful you want people to forget to unsubscribe. By not having consistent content; people are just going to subscribe for the month a hit game comes out which is worse revenue than buying a $70 outright
Isn’t it fair to say most of CoD’s audience pretty much solely buys CoD and maybe Madden or something every year? I certainly have seen that from friends irl. So I’m not really sure if Game Pass is an appealing or honestly even much cheaper alternative to just buying the new one every year… like yeah technically it’s a better deal but does that really mean anything when you’re not really interested in playing other titles anyway? While I feel we should hold them to their word for the “all first party Xbox games day one” thing, I do question how much being on Game Pass would actually affect hard sales.
@@tomradburn2073 they already have to buy the gamepass to play online anyways so why not sava a couple bucks and have all that extra stuff you can use or even game share
I mean, you gotta buy some version of gamepass already to play online, so paying a bit extra per month to get CoD along with it is gonna be really appealing to a lot of consumers
You are so right, this is all my friends. Its like eating a bowl of crap for years while you are missing out on this Buffet of great games. I just dont even try to convice them anymore
@@PartyUpLive even with all of the short comings that Xbox has, I honestly do enjoy playing their consoles. The series x has been great since I bought it

If they increase the price more than a couple of dollars a month, I may have to consider canceling my game pass subscription. I like my series x, and I’ve enjoyed playing game pass and have discovered some new games, but on the other hand at say 20-30 bucks a month, I can always buy games here and there that I want to play.

Hear me out… subscription services are GREAT…. At the BEGINNING of a console generation! When a console has its footing in the market, and the flow of new games is steady, they aren’t worth it, and this is coming from a person who BUYS between 5-10 game a month. With the availability of demos for most new games, subscription services are becoming obsolete. I used gamepass as a means to try games before I bought them, but now I’m just better off buying the game, and if it sucks, I sell it. I was an Xbox live subscriber since day one (got the cool Xbox 360 to prove it), and when gamepass Ultimate became a thing, I stacked subscriptions for YEARS, but in February, I let my subscription expire, and I don’t foresee ever renewing it.
I’ve gotten to the point with my Xbox Series X where I’m now just using it for Dev Mode homebrew games and emulation and am doing the majority of my current gaming on PC and Quest 2. I may return to Xbox Retail Mode if they decide to bring VR to it with Quest 2 compatibility.
I think that if they do increase the price just cause of cod is absolutely ridiculous because there are people out there like me for example that have completely given up on the series and don’t care for it
Way too many studios to not whip out some grand titles by now is dumb. They could be makin FAST fun games that have only 1 year dev time and whip em out and see what sticks too. but they're just doing pretty much none of that. If they make a Crimson Skies game with a co op among pirates thing with an open world to do jackings in sky, water, and ground, that would be cool. They could use the Sea of Thieves engine to set it up and get rid of the stupid art style and put cool stuff like the pirates in planes theme again.
I feel this but if I was completely without a system I may very well go with the small white box. PlayStation tiers are still more expensive than Game Pass plus Xbox always has really good sales. I can see why an informed gamer may not want to go Xbox but look at some of what I just mentioned. Shoot, I may still go for a cheap little s. Just saying is all.
Just want decent single player games that don't require online or a prescription to to play them go back to the days where you could just buy a game and play
If you don’t understand how weird this COD situation is just got to your significant other and tell them: “I decided just now I only wanna be with you”
@@jimmyjimy1 o I did not even realize that. I just watched the trailer, I'm talking about the Tank Dempsey, Nikolai Belinski, Takeo Masaki, and Edward Richtofen story line.
A tutorial on emotion-based reasoning. It would have been nice to hear some of the facts or data you said were out there. You should never trust any of these corporations. They all give you a message, not truth. Gamepass is still a fantastic value, even if they raise the price another 5 dollars a month.
When you put all your time, money and resources in one thing and close studios that do great I guess it's gonna make the most money when all you eggs are in that one basket.

I just got rid of my gamepass subscription. I was having audio issues they couldn't fix, and then when I was looking at the games I felt like I played all the good ones. maybe it will be worth it again at some point and I still belive in the subscription model for games, but right now, gamepass isn't it.
I can only game an hour a day. I like all kinds of games. If this is how you game, why would you not get game pass? It is absolutely the best value in not just gaming, but in all entertainment.
I'm just sitting around playing pokemon snap and switch online and TotK and Mario and having a grand ol' time while everyone else frets about Xbox and Playstation and whatever will happen with the next Nintendo system.
2024 no increase in gamepass price. Cod early access only for purchased premium versions, gamepass will get cod few days later. 2025 increase of 5 dollars for gamepass with new incentives including day one release of cod 2025 on gamepass. Core will stay same price.

Way too many studios to not whip out some grand titles by now is dumb. They could be makin FAST fun games that have only 1 year dev time and whip em out and see what sticks too. but they're just doing pretty much none of that.
If they make a Crimson Skies game with a co op among pirates thing with an open world to do jackings in sky, water, and ground, that would be cool. They could use the Sea of Thieves engine to set it up and get rid of the stupid art style and put cool stuff like the pirates in planes theme again.
well said mate and some really good pointers that you made for any gamer in general
Xbox as a console platform is dead to me, switched to PS5 and PC.
Enjoy!
What a treat, my favorite Nintendo CZcamsr talking about Xbox drama!!!
Needed to call in the XBOX CZcamsr to figure out all this news
I really don't think xbox is going to be lasting too much longer they might end it soon I would think. PC gaming is where its at right now.
Jez Corden mentioned that most of the revenue from CoD was from in game purchases. But yes really, no trust or sympathy with xbox anymore
Too be fair older CODS had really fun campaigns and the first NEW MW campaign was good
wasnt this like 6 days ago?
I feel this but if I was completely without a system I may very well go with the small white box. PlayStation tiers are still more expensive than Game Pass plus Xbox always has really good sales. I can see why an informed gamer may not want to go Xbox but look at some of what I just mentioned. Shoot, I may still go for a cheap little s. Just saying is all.
I'm downgrading to Gamepass Core when my Ultimate expires. I got all the games I want to play on disc anyways.
Yet Phil is still here and Jim is gone. just goes to show who is doing something right
Just want decent single player games that don't require online or a prescription to to play them go back to the days where you could just buy a game and play
Watch them raise the price of the battlepasses in cod.
RIP Knicks
Yeah they got me all the way back with the Xbox One X and the promise of 24 game studios hard at work
When Xbox update's it's OS to allow offline profile creation, then I'll consider getting an Xbox Series X. Until then, it's more of a X-Brick.
Agreed!
I bet you use steam right? Talk about DRM my friend.
Gog for me
@@jfitnesshealth fair enough, but I don't think many use gog as their main platform 🤔
Ok Boomer
If you don’t understand how weird this COD situation is just got to your significant other and tell them: “I decided just now I only wanna be with you”
As a Pacers fan, I feel bad, Brother. They used cheat codes with that shooting %🎉
People confuse lies with simply plans changing well thats business buddy every company does this
What ever happened to zombies in call of duty? It's been years
If by years you mean this year yeah. Zombies is in MW3
@@jimmyjimy1 o I did not even realize that. I just watched the trailer, I'm talking about the Tank Dempsey, Nikolai Belinski, Takeo Masaki, and Edward Richtofen story line.
Watch X-box only include COD in higher tiers.
A tutorial on emotion-based reasoning. It would have been nice to hear some of the facts or data you said were out there.
You should never trust any of these corporations. They all give you a message, not truth.
Gamepass is still a fantastic value, even if they raise the price another 5 dollars a month.
Even with a price hike,it will still save me money in the long run
When you put all your time, money and resources in one thing and close studios that do great I guess it's gonna make the most money when all you eggs are in that one basket.
the price of games by themselves has gone up so its pretty obvious that the price of game pass would go up too
Ding dong 🚪
RGT: Hmm, who could that be?
He opens the door.
RGT: Phil Spencer? What are you doing h….
💥👊🏼💥
Phil Spencer: Stop calling me the B word on your stupid YT channel.
RGT on the floor holding his 👃: Yes sir….
I would most likely play online games if I didn't have to pay a buttload for a subscription service that I don't want.
I just got rid of my gamepass subscription. I was having audio issues they couldn't fix, and then when I was looking at the games I felt like I played all the good ones. maybe it will be worth it again at some point and I still belive in the subscription model for games, but right now, gamepass isn't it.
Is the reason Phil Spencer isn't saying anything to the massive gaming public because he was fired?
I can only game an hour a day. I like all kinds of games. If this is how you game, why would you not get game pass? It is absolutely the best value in not just gaming, but in all entertainment.
Cause most people aren’t interested in playing a lot of different games. Just some games. Time is a big factor.
Please, make "little 💩 head Johnny" a recurring character! 😂😂😂
I'm just sitting around playing pokemon snap and switch online and TotK and Mario and having a grand ol' time while everyone else frets about Xbox and Playstation and whatever will happen with the next Nintendo system.
Did you get a mental breakdown
2024 no increase in gamepass price. Cod early access only for purchased premium versions, gamepass will get cod few days later. 2025 increase of 5 dollars for gamepass with new incentives including day one release of cod 2025 on gamepass. Core will stay same price.
Xbox Gamepass Ultimate Ultimate Series XL $69.99 a month
My favorite Nintendo CZcamsr not making a non Nintendo video game:(
