As Game Pass prices get laughably high, Microsoft is reportedly spinning up a free version of Xbox Cloud Gaming—but of course you'll have to sit through ads

Canceled my sub via the handy link in the 50% price hike email.

Microsoft can huff my piss

I was wondering how they would be able to run such an expensive service based on just one person's ad revenue:

Microsoft is also currently testing a limit of one hour for sessions, with up to five hours free a month

I just don't understand how Microsoft thinks someone is going to sit through minutes of ads and be okay with only 5 hours per month in return.

When I was a kid my parents would only let me play games for half an hour a day. That works out at, using the monthly times, three times as much as Microsoft is letting people use.

Microsoft, is it an ad supported tier or a limited trial. Pick one.

Gotta drink your verification cans
