We’ve been an Xbox household forever, but recently I stopped paying for Game Pass due to the price increases. Last night my daughter was complaining that there was “nothing to play”.

There are 416 owned games available for download on that Series X which have been accumulated over the years through purchases or Xbox Live Gold or whatever, and she’s barely scratched the surface of them.

For the total life of my PS1 ownership when I was her age, I owned 5 games.

“In my day…”, etc etc

    You could download three random games from your list and present them the same way as though they were new? Think that would be enough? I mean idk how Xbox is laid out, but I assume new games show up on the Home Screen which is how they access the new games of the month or whatever, right?

      Yes, it’s a good idea, but in the evenings I’m too busy flicking through Netflix complaining that there’s nothing to watch.
