I spent $70 for 3 years of gamepass and online play. I'm more than getting my money's worth.

I think Gamepass alone is worth it

Today that’d cost you $360 & you’d have to moonwalk away.

I’m out of the loop, going by the MS site price… how’d you score that?

Hmm, CNET recommends CDKeys, I guess they’re not using stolen credit cards then. ($165 for 3yr.)

You used to be able to upgrade your entire gold subscription to gamepass by just paying for a month of gamepass. I know of people that bought multiple years of gold while they were on sale then bought a month of gamepass and boom, multiple years of gamepass for a low price.

I'm not sure if they still do that upgrading thing anymore

I feel like that was a great scheme to both lock a bunch if people into years of gamepass really early on and bump up their numbers, at the same time as rewarding the loyal Xbox Live subscribers who got a great deal out of it. Win - win.

Yeah, I pulled some loophole with gold and live and conversion a few years ago, and it's absolutely been worth it. The titles I played alone covered the cost of it all, especially because I played games I otherwise wouldn't have. The game where you drive trucks in mud? Not on my shopping list. But for "free"? I'm in, let's waste some time.
