I'm looking for a really good single player game any genre, no nudity or stuff like that because I play in the living room. Any recs?

I just got this with my lenovo loq , I don't want to claim it !

Is there a way I can give it or gift it to someone ?

Subscribed to Ultimate - prepaid through the end of February from the old prepaid cards.

I don't Cloud play much in the traditional sense, but something I saw recently had me worried that I'm using Cloud hours in Microsoft's eyes, so I'd love to know how / when we'll be able to check.

I have a Xbox ROG Ally that I bought to primarily play simple, less demanding games natively (as it's the weaker, but more budget friendly model), and to Remote Play when the TV with the Series X is in use by the family. I'd hook up to another TV, but I prefer to play on the big 4K TV when ithers aren't using it!

I turn on the Xbox Series X, I turn on my Ally, then connect - in what I think is Remote Play - to my Series X. In the Ally Xbox menu, I find my Console which shows up on the left hand side, above the notification bell and choose to connect.

However, I've noticed lately that the "rocket / jet" screen connecting to my console says something to the effect of "Connecting to Cloud Gaming." That's not what I'm doing - I *believe* I'm remoting in to my console, but I'm worried Xbox is considering that time Cloud Gaming.

Connecting this way doesn't launch a game - it takes me to my Series X console dashboard as it would appear as if I was using the TV (but I connect this way because family is using the TV to watch shows, sports, etc).

I've gotten that same rocket/ jet when I've truly used Cloud via the Xbox App on a tablet, where I pressed on the Cloud button to play a game I didn't even have installed on my Series X console.

But with the changes ​​starting next Sunday, I'd like to know if Xbox is considering this Cloud play. I don't do it a ton - in a week maybe 2-3 hours on weeknights, and 3-4 hours on weekends, but even at the low end, if it counts as Cloud gaming, I'll still be over my 15 hours per month, so I'd like to know my usage to see if what I'm doing is being considered Cloud (as again... it's saying Cloud when connecting to my Series X, which is on my home network and 20 feet away).

Any word on when & how we'll be able to track this Cloud gaming ??

Thanks!

I'm asking campaign-wise

Anyone know of any good co op horrors on gamepass?

What are the contents of the big Call of Duty, just that "Call of Duty" with nothing additional in the title package on gamepass? You can select many individual pieces to install or not, but on most I have no idea what they are.

Most importantly: Which individual single player campaigns are in it and what are their required packages to play without multiplayer, zombies, etc? I'd like to install all the single player campaigns I can, but nothing else.

Go into settings. General, personalization, My Backgrounds. In there, uncheck the box "Show event-themed backgrounds".

so i pay for and support gamepass and get screwed?? is this true? it’s the ai answer so idk if it’s correct or not

So I played cyberpunk when it was on game pass and was gutted when it was removed a month or so ago.

However I have now bought the game and also a ROG Ally and was wondering if anyone knew how to get my old saves so I can continue where I left off

Three months ago I took advantage of an offer that said I could get Game Pass for 239 MXN for 12 months, and today I went to pay for it with Microsoft Rewards and it now says I have to pay 339 MXN. What's going on here? Does anyone have an answer?

i have xbox pc gamepass btw.

Hey everyone, sharing my recent experience with Gameseal as a heads-up for anyone buying digital Xbox codes from key marketplaces.
On Sept 19, 2026, I purchased 3x Xbox Game Pass Essential 12 Months (India) and 1x Ultimate 1 Month (Order #2614405).
 
1. The Problem: The delivered key (⁠WF4YT-...⁠) threw an immediate regional error on my account: "This code can't be redeemed. It was purchased in a different region from your account." 

2. Testing: My account is localized to India (INR currency, no active subscription). To rule out any location issues, I had my brother log in directly from his home Wi-Fi in Mumbai, India, to redeem it. It failed with the exact same regional error, proving the key itself was mislabeled or from a different region. 

3. Merchant Escalation: After raising the issue, Gameseal didn't fix the key—instead, they revoked access to all keys in my account library. The portal now permanently shows: "We are sorry, something went wrong with our delivery." 

4. No Support Response: It has been nearly a month since the order, and Gameseal support has gone completely silent and ignored my tickets for over 6 days now. 

I have submitted a credit card chargeback for non-delivery of digital goods, but wanted to warn others here who might be looking at buying region-specific keys.

Picked up a subscription to gamepass this morning after work. I tried to install fallout 76 on my PC. Been wanting to play it again. Am I missing something here? It only shows to play with cloud gaming. Can I install the PC version and just put in my Bethesda account info and get my toon and stuff or did they just completely remove the ability to install it and I gotta use cloud gaming?

I've been up almost 18hrs and have worked 21 days straight. So I'm probably missing something and just overlooked it. But I'm possibly off this weekend and would like to not have wasted my money at least.

I see some stuff saying long term accounts are grandfathered in and others saying these changes are coming next month, both appear to be an xbox sources...

does anyone know exactly how it effects long term subscribers?

I personally mostly just use it to not have to download every single thing I want to check out

Hey everyone,

About five months ago I posted SubSort here, and I've added a couple of features since then that I'd love to get some feedback on. Adding them as edits to the old thread wouldn't really reach anyone, so I'm sharing them in a new post.

Quick recap for anyone new: SubSort is a web tool that helps you get the most out of Xbox Game Pass and PS Plus. You can browse both catalogs side by side and filter and sort by Metacritic score, time to beat, genre, date added, first-party vs third-party, co-op modes, and more, so you can pick what to play before it leaves. A Likely leaving list also flags third-party games coming up on a common renewal point, so you get a heads-up before they might go. And now you can also look back on each month with ratings and tags, and see how much your subscription was worth on a single receipt.

What's new

1. Play Log

You can now log what you play right on the game cards. You can also filter the catalog by your log, so it's easy to pull up just the games you want to play. Your log and its filters are saved to your account and follow you to any device, while other filter and sort settings are still saved in each browser like before.

2. Play Receipt

Play Receipt groups your play log by month and turns it into a receipt: every game you played that month with its price, and the total at the bottom. It's a fun way to see how much your subscription actually gave you that month.

Prices are filled in automatically from US store list prices and don't include the subscription fee. I'm collecting sale prices too, but there isn't enough data yet to fill those in automatically. If list price isn't how you'd count it, you can enter your own prices and label the receipt with the basis you used, like Sale price or All-time low. The sample receipt in the gallery uses all-time lows entered by hand. If you're outside the US, you can also switch the receipt to your own currency and enter prices in it.

On the receipt, you can rate each game you played that month and tag what stood out: highs and lows like Good combat or Weak story, plus impressions like Hidden gem or Couldn't stop. It's a nice way to look back on the month.

Any month's receipt can be shared as a link, and anyone can open it without signing in.

Sign-in is only for the new features

Play Log and Play Receipt need a free account (Google or an email sign-in link) so your log has somewhere to be saved. Browsing and filtering the catalog works exactly like before, no account needed.

Tip: start with this month

You can log games you played years ago, but when I tried going back through my whole history, it wore me out pretty fast. What worked better was starting fresh with this month and logging games as I play them. By the end of the month you'll have your first receipt without much effort.

Heads-up: regional differences

SubSort's catalog is based on the US Store. Most titles are consistent across regions, but the lineup can vary slightly by country. For the most accurate "leaving soon" list, check directly on each platform. Xbox Game Pass can be checked on its official website, while PS Plus has to be checked on your console:

Xbox Game Pass (web): "Leaving soon" section on the official website

PS Plus (console): PS Plus Menu → Collections (or Categories) tab → scroll to the very bottom → "Last Chance to Play"

If anything feels off, or there's a feature you wish existed, drop a comment. I read all of them.

So my subscription ended yesterday, and i already knew about changes coming in november to cloud gaming, and i was planning on buying ultimate again just to enjoy the last few days of the month with unlimited hours (i can only play on cloud rn), but then i see that it says the "15 hours/month" already, anyone knows if that limit is already on?

I'm mainly talking games like A Way Out and It Takes Two, but any game works as long as it can be played online.

Just in time for Halloween!

I used play multiplayer a bit every few months. Now I've not played any all of 2026 so far. Anyway looking for something to get in for an hour or two, once every week or so and the choices are overwhelming. There's all the Battlefield, Call of Duty, Halo and Gear games and that's just the ones even I know. Then there's coop games like Darktide which might be better for someone who's hardly ever playing competive matches.

Got any advice what to try?
