Xbox GamePass Price Hike

So if you are talking about the 3 months nvidia pc game pass then yes. I first redeemed the nvidia pc game pass, then core and then ultimate. All worked perfectly.
There's a 100 rupees cashback offer. I'm going to try out the NVIDIA, since I just got a 4080, so it should be compatible.
One more thing, I've added 6 months of 2 GP Core. Should I proceed with NVIDIA now, or should I opt for 6 months of 6 GP Core, convert it to Ultimate using a single month, and then go ahead with NVIDIA?"

Ok so you can redeem your nvidia at anytime as core and pc pass will come as seperate subscription in your profile settings. However, they combine when you redeem ultimate.
That's how my experience was.
 
Okay, so right now I have added 2 x 6 months and going to add more, till 36 months are done.
Guys, I got 1:1 somehow and I am scratching my head with happiness.

It will change.. just open the web version and you will see a different expiry date. If it doesn't then damn, you are a lucky son of a gun.

Euronet seller on Amazon got more 6 months cupon.

Yeah, the happiness was shortlived. If refreshed after an hour and unlike earlier, it's 3:2. But, I won't crib about it much, total amount paid was 726X6+532=4888. Two games that I am looking forward to are Call of duty and Gears of war.

Same here want to play the modern warfare refresh, upcoming cod titles plus gears of war.
And if any good day one release then that too.
I have been waiting on high seas for a long time for MW refresh.
 
It's called being a privately held company with no VCs or shareholders to demand profit maximization at the cost of everything else. Watch them become the next EA once Gabe retires/dies.
There have to be a EA-level executive who replaces Gabe to ruin such a strong company like valve. Really could go either ways because there are some things only EA can mess up and we know there aren't many Gabes alive.

Regarding gamepass I hate that while they introduce newer games onto gamepass, some even being included on launch day 1, they also take away many games out of it and its like a cycle where even if you own gamepass for the next 10 years you aren't guaranteed that the game you prefer to have will still be there in future. So at best this service is a "bag of assorted games" which you may or may not like/want/need in the future.
 
I used the method posted here to get Ultimate for 24 months, which cost me 5247 or 218/month through paytm vouchers. Maybe not my smartest decision, since it costs 0 to pirate and that's tough to beat, but I'm hoping the multiplayer games that are coming, especially CoD makes it worth it. And we're still getting a massive discount compared to countries like the US.
Refunded my Ultimate because I used the upgrade page on the Xbox website to convert and paid 970ish for it via CC, when I could have used a paytm voucher for that as well and only pay 527. Upon refunding Ultimate you don't get your Core months back. You lose everything. I contacted Microsoft support and they were chill. They reinstated my Core months as well as my PC Gamepass months from the Nvidia promotion, which they credited back as the whole 90 days, not counting the month I'd already used, which was very cool of them. Finally, I used the paytm voucher to do the upgrade again and this time I have it till October 17, 2026.

Another tip for anyone with friends/family abroad. You can change their account region to India, do this trick for them, change region back. As long as you have a phone number in the country you want to use Gamepass with. I was able to do this for a friend who lives in the US.

Yeah, I only count on games actually owned by Microsoft being on gamepass indefinitely. So Halo, Minecraft, anything by Activision Blizzard or Bethesda. Maybe we get TES VI before 2027 on Gamepass, that would be sick.
 
I bought the 6xcore and 1xultimate codes for the stacking trick. I will hold them till my gamepass expires and then use them, and get ultimate at like 198 per month (vs using them on an active subscription at like 278 per month). I do not think I would ever be paying for gamepass after I have used these codes though, the pricings gone nuts.
 
Is it possible to do it now? can you eleborate.

I have Ultimate till july25. I would like to increase it atleast till 2026
Yes you can do it now also but the conversion ratio is f* uped if you have ultimate active.
So since you have ultimate active, you can buy 6 months of gamepass core for 749 and when you redeem it you will get 81 days of ultimate.

Yes.
That I know. Bohat faltu conversation rate. I thought something else I might have missed when you said you stacked it till '26.

Never mind. Will just let go Xbox Game pass service after it is over. I am not paying so much conversion rate.
Enough of keep paying more and more to these companies.

Jio bhi jaane wala hai ...Xbox bhi jayega.
Dekho aaram se Rihanna aur Bieber ka dance. Bohat hua.
 
Guys what’s the Paytm method? How do I use it? Can’t find any clear links on how to get it from Paytm :/
You can get them at Paytm App>Gift Cards>Search for Xbox. The 749 one is for 6 months Core and 549 is 1 month Ultimate. Use 6x Core and then convert with Ultimate.
is this fine? I dont have an XBox console anymore. I dont use too many PC games from this, but if this is the lower and older rate, I might keep it running.

If you use the above method, you'd be paying an effective rate of ~200/month for the next 2 years, instead of 549/month.

I can only see the option for 12 months, not 6 months, do you have any link for the 6 months Core?

Never mind! Changed the price option to 749 and can now see the 6 month option. I’m only able to buy 5 vouchers, so that’s 30 months.

Will I have any issues redeeming them at once?

I can still see it.

Try this one,

You should be able to buy 6. I bought 3 of them twice. And no, there won't be any problem redeeming all at once. But 6 is the maximum.
