Slightly off topic. I got a moviepass welcome email. I believe signed up for it based on a suggestion/post a long time on this thread. Anyone actually using it? Is it any good or bad? Any general comments. Thanks!

Microsoft is reporting Q2 earnings right now.  Looks like Xbox content and services are down 8% year over year.

 

FY23 Q2 - Press Releases - Investor Relations - Microsoft

Forward guidance is weak too. Expect more decline.

Hmmm…it used to be horrible. Started out great for the first year or so. But went downhill fast. Blocking movies at certain times, not working at all…

Hopefully you’ll have better luck with the “new” version. But I wouldn’t have recommended it to my worst enemy. Use Regal Unlimited now and it’s mostly been smooth sailing.

Let us know how it goes!

The most conversation around the service can probably be found at https://www.reddit.com/r/moviepass.

I think Justin Roiland is about to disappear forever. He got fired from Rick and Morty too.

Looking at eneba. Anyone have experience with this website and what are your thoughts?

Eneba has been mixed for me. Last year I did my first transaction with them for PSN credit that turned out to be a bad code and I had to jump through some hoops to get a refund. I had sworn off them, but recently someone posted a deal to get $50 xbox credit for $40, so I thought I'd try them one more time and that one worked.

Saw this on Wario: if you own any of the Resident Evil games or movies digitally, you can get a free copy of the first movie. I know many people got that $20 bundle price mistake a while back. Make sure to select the UHD version if it's not showing up as free.

No version is showing up free. If anyone can get it to work, how did you do it?

Can't speak about subcription codes, but bought a couple of games off there just fine... Elden Ring on release for 25€ was a steal!

I got a $100 Xbox code from Eneba last year that was already used, had to do a bunch of crap to get my money back.

I've never bought credit, just game codes, but no issues.

Goldeneye on Switch 1/27!  I haven't seen an Xbox announcement yet (maybe during the showcase today), but this is definitely exciting news

I clicked on the link and got the same where nothing showed free. Closed the tab, re-clicked on the link again, and then it showed free in UHD. Clicked on that and now it's now showing up in my MA.

What do you own, is it the games, movies, or both?

Sorry, forgot to mention. I had a couple of the movies already. Technically all the games I have were either from Gold or are installed from physical copies. None of mine should be digitally "owned" except probably the free chapter of one of the Revelations

For me, this is the best thing Xbox has done since Forza Horizon 5. I know the lack of online is a bummer but I would rather "own" it than have to keep the pricier Switch online subscription tier to play it.

Hands-on preview videos are starting to drop for Hogwarts Legacy, and they’re mostly positive! Combat and the world seem to be great, solid character creation, etc. It’s one of my most anticipated games of 2023, but I’ve been holding off preordering until some reviews/impressions drop. Time to preorder!

I’ve been so excited about this game for a long time. I haven’t looked forward to a game this much in a long time. I already decided to preorder but I’m going to wait until it’s closer in hopes of a punchcard.

If Microsoft is looking to bring back a game that features Pierce Brosnan as James Bond I think they should try to bring back Everything or Nothing. I still have a copy of that on Xbox that I would love to play on newer hardware.

Still not working for me. I own several games from that big bundle sale a few years back, but I don't own any of the movies.

On one hand it should work for me and it's a free movie, on the other hand those fucking movies are trash and I know I'll never watch it and just look at it in disgust every time I see it in my collection.

Picked up Soul Hackers 2 Premium Edition for $20 from Gameflip.  I have no idea when I’ll ever play it.

Everything or Nothing was the best Bond game ever. Goldeneye was a great shooter for the time and great multiplayer fun, but EoN was the game that felt like a Bond movie. And the fact it was better than Die Another Day makes it a fitting end to Brosnan’s time as Bond.
