Terrible offerings on both platforms, but for the first time in a while Playstations 'gifts' are marginally less bad.

 

[CoolMe]

Wasn't Tropico 5 given before on GWG? Yea the selection's pretty terrible on Xbox..

 

[AshuraZro]

Outside of the obvious Halo Infinite, its a light month all around. Although seeing FF 13-2 taunts me a little as a game I never finished.

 

[Cortador]

Personally this is a good Gamepass month for me. Looking forward to Stardew Valley | Lightning Returns | One Piece and Halo Infinite.

psplus got a bad choice of free games. makes a boring xmas for me.

For me PS Plus has hands down the better games this month over GWG..... apart from some odd but typical Sony decisions. The first is Godfall being more of a demo and not actually the full game. Secondly, Mortal Shell is the last gen version. Let's see if they block access to the free Enhanced Edition upgrade because the standard edition wasn't actually purchased. In which case I would just play the enhanced version on Game Pass.

Cant wait to try that 4k 60FPS remaster of FF13-2

 

[AlexMCS]

Trash month as expected.

 

[Naster]

Nintendo: $79.99 to allow up to 4 (or 6 I can't remember) profiles to use online/the "free" games you get
Sony and Microsoft: $59.99 for any profile on the console to use online and the games you get, and not retro games that most people don't play, modern games.. that most people don't play but you get my point.

These threads might as well start including EGS since that's the only one that's actually free to keep. Godfall Challenger Edition is gonna be given away on there too soon.
