From Forbes

“Let’s say you want to play 12 Xbox Series X first party games over three years, and 12 first party PS5 games over three years.
All those games are coming to Xbox Game Pass, so you will be paying $10 a month, barring any special deals, for 12 months, time three years. So $360.
Assuming all those Sony games are $70 each, you are instead paying $840. So the difference between the cost savings is quite literally almost the price of an Xbox Series X itself. Sony has mentioned they’re going to be doing things to make its own subscriptions, PS Now, PS Plus, more attractive, but that hasn’t borne fruit yet, and the ultimate move, rolling up new releases into being included with a subscription, seems unlikely to happen as Sony has spoken out about that specifically in the past.”

From TheVerge

“Microsoft is bringing next-gen Xbox games to the Xbox One with xCloud. Microsoft will let Xbox One owners play next-gen Xbox games through its xCloud service. The news was buried in a blog post recapping Microsoft’s Xbox + Bethesda showcase, with the company confirming plans to leverage Xbox Cloud Gaming (xCloud) for Xbox One consoles. That means the 2013 hardware will be able to play Xbox Series X exclusive games from 2021 — extending the lifecycle of what would normally soon be obsolete boxes. Until now, Microsoft had only described xCloud on consoles as a way for players to “try [games] before you download,” but it’s clear the company sees the service as offering much more. Microsoft originally announced Microsoft Flight Simulator as an Xbox One title, before quietly removing references to the Xbox One launch in December. Microsoft recently confirmed Flight Simulator will now launch on Xbox Series X / S consoles on July 27th. It’s not clear when xCloud game streaming will be available on Xbox One consoles, though. It’s unlikely to be ready in time for the July launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator, and Microsoft’s head of cloud gaming, Kareem Choudhry, previously said xCloud will be integrated into consoles “later this year.” xCloud availability will provide a welcome boost for Xbox One consoles, particularly as Microsoft is upgrading its server blades to run Xbox Series X hardware later this month. It will give this older hardware a way to play upcoming titles like Starfield, which, like Flight Simulator, will also launch exclusively on the new Xbox Series X / S consoles.”
