Great experience

I love being able to play any game I want from the collection and also playing games on my iPad with the Xbox controller is next level. Sooo good. This is the future of gaming in the cloud with a good internet connection.

I love Xbox but…..

I have always loved Xbox ever since the 360 but with this app I am really annoyed. Me and friends have been play on xcloud and having fun with each other, but every time I play it whether it be on my phone or my laptop I lag so I decided to try it on the Xbox game pass so due to request from my friend, but I longed on to see the button for ‘cloud’ wasn’t there. I tried redownloading the app, restarting my phone and I am still really confused. Can someone help me?

It really could be better

The app itself its not bad, but is it really the point of the app just to show the games available and an option to download to your console when available? Why not just add this feature to the xbox app instead of creating a whole app just to show the games? I have 3 xbox apps (Xbox, Xbox game pass and Xbox cloud) on my phone and none of them show or it makes easier to see the price and purchase a game from my phone. Why don’t let it available to purchase the game? They could really improve sales if it shows all the games that I’m able to download through game pass and an option of purchase right next to download. They have to make the buying option easier and not create a whole app just to show available games

Works well

Easy to install games on the go. Sometimes it’s easier to browse games on the app than on the console so appreciate the option. I would also like the option to also be able to remove games and free up space. Maybe an update in the future?

Good With Problems

I’ve used this app to see a lot of new games on Xbox game pass. It’s awesome! There are problems and suggestions I need to let you know about. When there are new games I want or games I found that are interesting, I try to install it through the app since I don’t have to turn on my Xbox just for that. But then it’ll tell me to get game pass when I already have it, then it wont even do the thing. That’s a big problem, otherwise it’s a great app and I recommend downloading this if you need it. I have a suggestion of adding a new intro to your app. When you enter, it would show the Xbox logo. I recommend changing it into your profile picture with Xbox logo and next to it saying “game pass”. That would be cool and useful. “How?” You may ask. Well when people are trying to go into the Xbox app it self, they might press on game pass and won’t know because they have the same intro. Then, they would think that it’s been changed for game pass only. (Which probably won’t happen) But if it does, that’s where you guys come in to change it. It’s better to know which app your going in so you don’t get confused. (I sound dumb but it may be true) That's all I suggest, anything else, I’ll let you guys know.

Well rounded, well managed.

When GamePass came out I was skeptical at first due to trying Play Station’s version of monthly game subscription. Their version is a huge rip off. They are not choosing games that people want to play. That is not opinion, that is statically shown in numbers, and numbers do not lie. 3 months after being released I finally signed up and it was a great investment. I’ve been into games since the 1980s and I won’t ever let up. My two favorite things are anything active like being at the gym, paddle board, kayak, hiking, etc and the second is gaming. Im a huge RPG fan and the choices on GamePass are so great. The day one releases, the old titles, the games that you would never think would be on a subscription are there. I am and will forever be a fan. Great service and great team running it. Thank you GamePass employees.

Absolutely Fantastic!!!

I love Xbox Game Pass Ultimate as it’s a great reasonable price point for many fantastic gaming titles that especially if there’s any games I think I might enjoy but am not sure about and they are on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate I can try them out through game pass instead of wasting money on buying a game to add to my library that I’m not too sure about.

A great example of that being Star Wars:Jedi Fallen Order from 2019, where I’m a very casual fan of Star Wars who enjoys the movies and loves The Mandalorian series on Disney+ which sort of combines two of my favorite elements of film Sci-Fi and Westerns.

I know I just got into some Star Wars content that wasn’t gaming related but, I wanted you to know where I was coming from when I say that, I decided to jump into Star Wars:Jedi Fallen Order and I absolutely love this game and I wasn’t honestly even sure where the game took place until I looked it up and it takes place between episodes 3 and 4 of the movies.

This turns out to be my favorite game that so far since I’ve had game pass that I decided to take a chance on through game pass that otherwise I’m not sure I would have played it unless I could get it dirt cheap on a holiday season sale and to be honest, I may even buy it anyways to own it just to support EA for making a really fun Star Wars game which I can’t say as much for their most recent two Star Wars games which were battlefront 1 and 2.

Really Enjoying It

I used to just have the Xbox Gold. Decided to get Game Pass when I started streaming on Twitch to have easy access to more games. In my opinion and based off of the games I enjoy playing, the Game Pass has been an excellent investment for me, has helped my library of games to stream, and is very easy to use. I can use the Game Pass app on my phone to see what’s available to download and install a game without needing to leave the show I’m watching or other game I’m playing. If you’re considering Game Pass, I strongly suggest you give it a chance.

Got Rid of Perks, and the entire reason I really enjoyed this…

I wish they’d not get rid of the perks, as many people including myself have gotten the benefits of having them; that added a lot of incentive to pay the money to play new games using Game Pass Ultimate. Now it is hard to justify, especially for those who pay monthly, since they took a core aspect away. Nobody wants Paramount+ Trials that lock you in and force monthly payments, which isn’t something explicitly said. That also goes for most of the “freemium” (pay to win) games, that constitute the rest of the perks.

Hoping they bring back the reason many people use the Game Pass app, and use the same thing as myself and others, really saw as a major part of having Game Pass, and then Game Pass Ultimate. XBOX BRING BACK THE PERKS!

The Netflix of gaming

Accessing this Gamepass library on my iPhone and managing it for both PC installs and console is just mind blowing. It shows if the game is available for install on PC & Console, It displays the Size of the Install and also displays its capabilities, Now if a game is listed as ‘Xbox everywhere ‘ it means you can play across devices supported by Xbox services and also maintain your progress!. So you can play e.g Forza Horizon 5 on PC and maintain your progress across your Xbox Series X|S or Xbox one. This is without a doubt the future of gaming.
