Last year Discord gave Nitro to all hypesquad members around Christmas and because of that, I can't redeem my 3 months of Nitro because it's for new subscribers only. What a bummer.
hmm you could at least make another discord to claim it with, that way you can get the free game pass code. It's not linked to the discord account, just a normal code.

 
I’m not seeing the EA Access, Spotify, Discord gifts on my dashboard, maybe because I’m not on the Home Console? I have Ultimate till Oct 2020.

Spotify and Discord gifts are working. But when I try to claim EA Access, it's trying to charge me $4.99 for the free trial(isn't the point that it's free?),

I logged out and back in, and it disappeared for me. Weird. Xbox is having service issues though so maybe it's just not showing up for everyone right now because of that.

 
I'm not seeing Fallen Order in the XO10 flash sale. It looks like it would only be 6000 points, not 10k.
Ya, I think TA just had it mixed in because of the preorder sale. Maybe something updated on the site and it registered as a new sale?

I might jump on Control, but for some reason I thought it launched for $40 so I'm hoping for something closer to $25. I think Shadowkeep can go lower by xmas as well. I think my spacebucks are safe for the time being.


Gamepass is the real goty. So many great games on there already and more coming all the time. Now I just need to find a good deal to hook up my 2nd nephew (or whatever my brother's wife's sister's kid is)...
 
Ok, in the Game Pass section of dashboard, there's a tile for "claim your ultimate gift now" where you can get your 1 month EA access, 3 months of discord nitro, and 6 months of spotify premium.

Then on the Discord Nitro side of things, you can claim a code for 3 months of game pass:

Hmm... I'm not seeing the 3 month game pass offer through the app.
 
Just browsing the last 50+ posts... Sony and google are having a really bad day.
I have no idea what's going on, so living vicariously through posts but from the gist of it: Sony has rested on their laurels again and it shows because I'm slowly tilting my head to see what MS is up to more and more. Seeing all these free games really is mindboggling because it's so. . .radical by today's standards.

 
When I redeemed the Discord Nitro offer, I only got 1 month. Not that I care since I only wanted the Game Pass 3-month code from it, but pay attention to your expiration dates since it's an auto-billing service.

It will show in the app you have a 2 month credit that will be applied dec 14th. I’m sure it’s so people forget to cancel but you do get 3 months just can’t cancel till dec 15th. If you want the full 3 months that is.

I couldn't redeem the Spotify on either of my accounts. Will setup another for my wife to use and apply it to that. Had the same experience as you with EA Access. Not even sure what Discord Nitro is. I don't really use Discord.

I have the new dashboard so this was located right on the main home screen and not under the gamepass icon. Has an icon square that says "a gift for you."

Was also able to get the 3 months of GamePass from Discord which converted to 2 months of GPU.

Microsoft has been so generous with GPU, I converted 3 years of gold at E3 for $1, I've now added an additional 5 months for free through various offers and now my sub expires on 11/11/22. I even bought one of those 3 months for $15 from Best Buy a few months ago and still sitting on the code because of all the giveaways.

GamePass also saved me $20 on black Friday as I was going to buy Rage 2.

Long story short, I love GPU and Microsoft, incredible value, amazing service, they have really turned it around!

When you go under billing it says you have 2 months of credits and the credit will be applied the following month. I assume you won't be billed, but I cancelled and removed my payment method just in case.

 
Nope. Actually the other way around. Only console. Already live.
Thanks..it wasn't live where I looked a few hours ago. Glad I waited a few weeks.

Also cancelled my Fallen Order at GS. Think I'll wait till closer to xmas when someone inevitably has it for $39.99 or lower.

Everytime the SW hype gets me...but I withstood finally this time. Having Remnant and a recently sub $20 Sekiro to fall back on probably helps.

Looks definitely like an amateur attempt to copy the souls formula, right down to blatantly ripping off animations but much slower paced. Guy talking sounds easy to please and calling it the best Star Wars game they've ever played rings hollow given Jedi Knight games. That said, I'm listening and trying not to get my hopes up that in practice, it's actually very solid. Wonder when reviews will go up tonight. . .

 
Is there a way to gift something if it’s a pre-order? I want to buy Reach for a buddy of mine so he can play with us when it comes out, but it only says “pre-order” or “redeem a code”. Haven’t tried pre-gifting something before so I wasn’t sure if it’s just a glitch or if I have to wait until the game is actually out before sending a gift. Thanks in advance.

Hmm...Mortal Kombat 11 premium edition for $45. Not terrible considering that it’s the base game and season pass. But...chances of a second Kombat pack? That’s potentially what’s holding me back. Might pick it up for $25 physically on BF to play the single player campaign. But as we know there will eventually be a full package release at some point. Worth the wait? Any thoughts?

Even if the game isn't that good (which would suck) I'm happy it's good from a lore perspective.

It's not a glitch, just how the system is set up. The moment it goes live at 3 pm on Dec 3rd you can gift it.

 
Getting two free months of GamePass Ultimate makes this the best Mixpot since the early ones. The Discord servers I actually use already have maximum boosts so that's about all the use I get.

A quick look at EA Access shows that might has well not have been included. I assume A Way Out doesn't include the friend pass thing and I own every other game I would care about.

I guess this isn't technically the Mixpot if you had to have Ultimate to take advantage of it though.

 
Awesome. I hope 6 soon follows.
Hard to know but I'd imagine Sega will gauge how well these release do. If they're a success presumably they would bring the upcoming ports of 3, 4, and 5 at some point.

The other angles I see would be a faster port of 6 since it's on the same engine as Kiwami 2, or maybe a focus on Like A Dragon (7) since that focuses on a new character. We could see a curve-ball port of Judgment as another option, but I don't think it sold as well as Yakuza normally does.

 
Someone needs to make a guide of how to use game pass as the quality library grows I’m lost in what to play, how to play, etc. should I dabble in everything for 20 minute intervals? Make a list and power through one by one? So many games and no time.

I recently got a switch lite and I finished luigis mansion 3 so I’m feeling pretty accomplished but my backlog on switch has me interested in abandoning Xbox simply due to my giant backlog.

Thanks for the info. Yet another thing I have to wait for *sigh* - was incredibly excited to play tonight when the leak came out this morning, but after this long, a few more weeks will be ok.

Gamepass is definitely quantity over quality. There are a lot of good games on gamepass, but not nearly as many as people hype up. For every big Gamepass update, theres one MAYBE two games that are worth playing, and those you can definitely play before the next batch.

Here's how I manage it. When I first signed up, I went through all the games and hid the ones that I've already completed/played or never want to play. Whenever I finish a game (whether that means completing it or deciding it's not for me), I uninstall and hide them. As of right now, there are only 60 games showing in Ready to Install when I go into Game Pass.

When they add new games, I do the same review process. Anything I've already played or don't ever plan to play gets hidden.

I look through the remaining games and see which ones I'm most excited to try out (alternatively, ask yourself, "which games, if they removed them from GP today, would I be most sad about or regret not having tried?"). Then I install the top 2 or 3 of those games. Play/try them. Uninstall and hide when done. Then repeat.

Also, if you do Rewards, I would recommend not playing new games right away. They usually have Reward quests for new games the next month. So all the new games they added today -- I'm not bothering to install or play them til I see what the December reward quests are.

How did you get 2 free months of Game Pass? The Mixpot is only supposed to contain Sea of Thieves and Gears Pop crap, and a chance to win a year of Game Pass.

Never thought about hiding the games in the gamepass tab, only did it with the ready to install. Just cleared up over 100 listed GP games and it looks much better. Thank you for the advice.
 
I might jump on Control, but for some reason I thought it launched for $40 so I'm hoping for something closer to $25. I think Shadowkeep can go lower by xmas as well. I think my spacebucks are safe for the time being.
Control will be $25 at Target Black Friday, I'm planning to try to grab it then.

 
Just realized that MS put out updates for 360 consoles, XB1 consoles and XB1 controller firmware yesterday while downloading the new GwG games.     Wanted to mention it in case anyone else missed it, since the Xbox One updates don't mention unless you look for it.

How did you get two free months of Ultimate?

I thought the mixpot was for Gears Pop money, Sea of Thieves and a chance to win 12 months of ultimate?

i assume he's talking about the 3 free months from the free Discord Nitro, which converts to 2 months if you already have ultimate.
