Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

the problem with this argument is gamepass isn't a console exclusive feature.
you just willingly chose to not use gamepass while on PC
That's why I mentioned those other console exclusive features. Anyway the original point was about cost and I think the Series X was the best value for money at launch this gen...
Half the price of building a similar PC at launch.
Rewards are higher on console so recoup the cost more than PC.
I use Game Pass on both PC and Xbox with a single account to play multiplayer so cheaper on that front.
We're half way through the generation now though. PC parts have got cheaper, Game Pass Ultimate conversion ratio has dropped and rewards are drying up so probably wouldn't advocate it anymore. PC likely to be better value next gen.
