Yeah, big smile

Only downside is where do I find the time...

Its sad that I actually own and played most of the games on PC (Steam)

Then again, it shows what good a buy this was for Microsoft, cause GamePass do not include the DLC's so they can get some sales by reviving the games so to speak as well as it being a good incentive to sell Xbox/Gamepass.

Odd that TES 3 and 5 are available but not 4.

Anyway I haven't played any of the Fallout games yet. Which is the correct order, and how would you guys rate them from best to worst?

Best to worst:
Fallout 2, Fallout 1, then probably NV and then 4. You can skip FO 3 and 76.

Skyrim and Fallout 4 in 60fps on next gen hardware would be a nice improvement

Well I last played it back on the PC when it came out. Will be cool to see "enhanced edition" on console and also get to play the expansions.

Still want my bloody Oblivion :(

Makes no sense that PC version is available, yet no Xbox one unless I change my country :(

If enough poeple reach out to xbox support they might be able to resolve it and include it in our region. The same with ME1. If you could play physical copies you could have just gotten you a pre owned one. But i also prefer digital.

I think we should also email support. It makes no sense why we have DLC on the store for a game that we can't purchase or download via GP.

There is actually a lot of interesting Ideas there: https://old.reddit.com/r/xboxinsiders/

Did not know Microsoft embrace external social platforms.

Edit: Great Microsoft support send me to reddit and they removed my post so guess we will never see Oblivion in SA

I must say Xbox is really winning me over the last few weeks. I was skeptical of game pass not long ago but the games coming out and tech like fps boost is amazing and saving me some money. I wasn't that into racing games but i've started with Forza, Dirt and even Wreckfest is keeping my attention. . These are games I never would have bought on PS but on game pass its "free" so why not. I'm currently playing Prey and its great so far.

I'm finding myself using my Series S more than my PS5 and I never thought I would say that.

So would you recommend the Series S?
I don't mind playing games a while after they're released, and I'm not looking to spend cash on buying new games over time. So a cheap machine with game pass seems like the best bet.
