      @@AA_dagr8t you are incorrect. The game simply needs to be XCloud compatible, it does not need to be included in the free-to-play Game Pass library. If you’re having issues, well it’s Microsoft, and their company is far too large to care much about the average paying customer.

    I wonder if samsung will pull a sony move like with discovery already purchased digital games. For example, if a customer purchases digital content and samsung decided to remove the already purchased digital media like movies due to a licensing agreement with any of the streaming service providers. On december 31st, 2023, sony will be removing already digitally purchased movies from discovery due to licensing agreement and sony has a list of movies from discovery that the customers already paid for. I wonder if the digital games will follow the same path and agree to the licensing agreement similar to sony and discovery and remove already purchased digital games that the customers already paid for. There is no law against removing digital content that the customers paid for since the customers only rent the games that they paid digitally since the corporations only the digital content. At least with the physical media, the consumer has ownership of the physical copy instead of paying to rent any form of digital media, no subscription payments since the physical copy is being paid only once instead of continuously every month, works offline, can’t be taken away, no censorship, no drm and superior quality for both audio and video compared to streaming. With digital, the content can be edited and changed without the consumer knowing anything about what is happening. For music, certain artist remove there content from streaming services and some artists only release there content in physical format only due to some kind of disagreement between the streaming services, the artist and record labels. The straw that broke the camels back for me, is when the games that I used to play on steam were removed from steam. Luckily I have game consoles that still physical copies of the games. It really sucks that I had to buy the same games multiple times because steam removed the digital games that I used to play that I used to have access to. I even tried looking for the same games that I used to have on steam from other digital game libraries and they no longer exist as if the games never existed from the beginning.

    PlayStation premium should be available on game hub and Nintendo and steam should do the same. Xbox game pass works well on game hub, perfect controls and graphics are very good. It’s about time that console hardware is integrated into TV’s as standard. There’s no reason for a console with massive empty TV’s there’s no hardware in TV’s why hasn’t PlayStation and Xbox established hardware intergation into Samsung, LG and other TV maker’s. A console is so unnecessary. The only consoles that make sense are Nintendo switch and steam deck. PlayStation and Xbox should be a TV service with a console experience including library downloads for offline play.
