My facts are pretty straight. Sounds like you're the one with the incorrect facts. I can see that you can still get XBL on Amazon. But sooner or later those keys won't be there anymore. And then people will have to resort to getting them through MS and all they have is 1 or 3 month. Not hard to understand. And those codes on Amazon are not on sale, at least not in my country. So your facts are wrong on that. PS plus on the other hand has it done correctly with the tiers and with the discount. I got the 50% deal yesterday for PS Plus. I don't appreciate how MS is trying to force everyone onto XGP with restricting our options. If their purpose is enticing me to have all my games on Sbox then they're doing a bad job. Because all this reminds me is the freedom that exists on PC. Even the playstation has more freedom of choice than Xbox right now for online gaming. That's just a fact.

The PS tiers are confusing as hell and most people have no idea what they mean lol. I don't. I'm glad you got PS plus on sale but it's the same price as Xbox. So what happens next year if you have to pay full price? I love a deal as much as anyone but are you always gonna get this mad about $30 lol when new games cost $70 but you don't want game pass. If you're a PC guy you're on the wrong sub, of course a computer is going to have more options and choices, with a console you're buying into a system.

Last I checked I live in a free society and I can go on any sub I want. I'm offering a real critique on Xbox and all you're doing is dismissing it as stupid lol. All this does is make MS look greedy trying to force ppl to go on the Gamepass when it costs more and i don't need it. They PS tiers are actually pretty simple to understand if you can read at a grade 1 level. It literally takes 10 seconds to read the summary of it described on the screen lol. If ppl didn't understand there would be a bigger uproar on the playstation which is the best selling console of this gen currently. What makes no sense is MS not allowing 6 or 12 month renewals in an effort in trying to force people to go XGP. And again no Xbox live costs $70 for the 12 month digital code on Amazon in my country and there was no deal for it. PS had both deals on 12 month game cards and renewals. If your argument is that MS shouldn't be competing against PC then that's even more stupid than it sounds.
