I rather enjoy playing PC games with controller support using my Xbox One controller. That thing is a godsend for me. It just feels so lovely in my hands. Sorry, I'm fangirling.

Heard about that recent support... DOSbox fan? Works on the old school games, too. Tie-Fighter / Wing Commander... yay.

It worked for both. I bought the 360 version of the season pass and it carried over to my Xbox One title.
And you got it from the recent sale? Because I have a friend who bought it in the sale, and its on his Xbox one but not on the 360 and we are pretty sure it was for the 360, so contacting support and the guy said that only worked near the launch for a month or so after launch and that it doesn't upgrade to next gen season pass for free anymore.....
I hadn't heard that. I'll fire up my copy in a little while and test it out.

I get the biggest kick every time my cousin's boy comes over, either visiting with my aunt or every now and then I'm babysitting. He's 9, so all he ever wants to play is Minecraft, which I downloaded expressly for him to play when he's over, or Mass Effect which is apparently the only other game on my HD that he has any interest in. Although, he did play Peggle for like five minutes. 
The first couple times I let him play ME, I just had him running around Pinnacle Station doing the battle sims. But then he decided he wanted to start a whole new character of his own. He got thru the Eden Prime mission just fine but then it's taken the last three or four visits for him to finally get thru the initial trip to the Citadel. I did my best to help guide him but then all he wanted to do was run around shooting at the random NPCs that you can't kill.

No thanks. $30 to play last years sports games just seems like another feeble attempt to cut into the used games market. The "Vault" only has a handful of crap in it at this point anyways.

From what I've read it's starting with this years EA sports titles (madden 15, fifa 15, etc) & also that new dragon age....if this deal turns out to offer new games & the games are yours to keep as long as you subscribe then I'm all in. But if it's some bullshit stipulations (which it probably will be since it's EA) then no
*edit* seems like beaver nailed it, It's just gonna be old games....the EA sports 15 games will have a trial in the vault & you'll get a 10% discount when you buy the full version.

When I read it, I thought to myself that it sounded too good to be true. Sure enough it was too good. It could have shown a lot of promise and value had it been a good deal.
