FTA:

Microsoft has brought back everyone's favorite deal: $1 for a month of PC Game Pass or Game Pass Ultimate. If you're purely interested in PC, that's 100-some very high quality games available on a windows PC for a month, and then a bunch of EA games as well, since PC Game Pass also includes an EA Play membership.

You can find PC Game Pass for $1, for a limited time, on Microsoft's store. PC Game Pass is $10 a month after the $1 promotion, while Game Pass Ultimate is $17.

I have Game Pass Ultimate and it's been a wonderful way to try all kinds of games console and PC that I wouldn't otherwise play. I discovered Hardspace: Shipbreaker this way, and have sunk dozens of hours into it.

"Very High Quality Games" I check their library every few weeks. A lot of indie and shovelware.

There's a lot of that, but plenty of solid 7's and 8's that again I'd otherwise not play (pay full price for). Turns out some of those games even with their problems are worth sinking many hours into.

Heck, I think the game I've played the most is the Lonely Mountains: Downhill game.
