sams club has S series bundles in stock

dunno if these are still in demand

or if folks here are looking for one
I ended up gettin an S for myself as a travel box. Tested it already on the one i shipped to a friend. It aint super powerul but performance for price plus its small size its been worth it so far. Goin outta town next week too so got it at the right time.

Breh Xbox is the brand. Xbox Gamepass, Xbox Game Studios, etc. You're just arguing semantics :skip:. And at the end of the day, not everyone is a PC gamer so until their cloud streaming offerings get off the ground, you need an Xbox console to play the games.
Breh I've got a cheap gaming pc, enough to be able to play most games on simple settings and I didn't bother gaming on it after trying a few times. I had it hooked up to the TV on the wall so only option for me was wireless keyboard and mouse and that was unusable for most games.
Xbox is way more convenient and not to mention much better performance from something that only cost $100 more than my used pc i bought.
People that game on pcs are a very small minority in the general gaming community

Cause my pc probably barely matches the performance of an Xbox one.
To get equal performance to a series x I'd have to pay a lot more for an equal level gaming pc.
And that's what PC elitists don't seem to get. Talmbout just build a PC, yeah for $1500? The average person ain't up for that expense.

The streets need either Fallout New Vegas remaster. Or another Fallout game in the west coast developed by Bethesda and Obsidian. :wow:

I'm looking to get Cris Tales next month. Also in August Psychonauts 2 comes out. Also interested in Yakuza Like A Dragon. At this point it doesn't make sense for the to purchase these games individually when they're all Game Pass games. I'm just gonna do the 36 month Gold to GPU conversion. It's effectively 3 years @ 5 per month.
Wasn't we just a few months ago having a back n forth about gamepass? I thought you was against it (this is not a beef, or a call out. I really don't remember if it was you or not) and if it was you, when did you start seeing the light?
You might be right, actually. :hubie:
He said you might be right :mjlol:
around 95 bucks using vpn for xbox live Brazil pricing. plus 1 dollar gamepass upgrade. so 96 bucks for 3 years of gamepass ultimate.
So my shyt ran out on the 6th and auto renewed for a month so I'm on lockdown for a couple weeks. What exactly do you do to get the time converted? I think I have it down but haven't actually done it yet. That Brazil trick sounds good but I might just get 3yrs American. Either way, after I get the 3yrs how do I upgrade it exactly. I was under the impression they'll just offer to convert it at one point but I feel that's not exactly how it goes, thanks in advance :handshake:

Make an alt account. As you know, any account with games/gamepass/gold logged into xbox lets other accounts access that shyt. So just make a burner account, do the xbox live gold gamepass conversion for 3 years, and keep it logged in. Now you n your family’s accounts that are logged in can eat:youngsabo:

takes 5 mins to make a new xbox account n its free. Also, it’ll require a backup phone or email after 2 weeks, so id make a gmail too n connect the burner to that.

That's basically my question, how is that done. I wanna do it to my account so that's why I was leaning towards getting the American live cards to avoid any potential shenanigans later on. So how do I initiate the conversion, will it just give me the option after I add 3yrs?;

Since you already did it on your account you cant do the 1 dollar upgrade again, thats why you make the burner account.

so on the burner, buy 3 years of gold. Then when it says upgrade to gamepass ultimate for a dollar, do it and your 3 years of gold turns into 3 years of ultimate.

alternatively, they got 3 months of gamepass ultimate for a buck. So make a new account every 3 months.
