Singapore also doesn't have Xbox Cloud Gaming. If they got, heheh ... brows.gif

Just got my XSX and XGPU this year.
Thought my XGPU subscription can't play Cloud supported games, coz mine isn't USA region ... but apparently can, thru VPN. Yay ...
So, tried VPN to South Korea (nearest), can launch Cloud Gaming option thru Xbox Windows app (didn't try phones); most games too lag to play, but some ok, albeit at low resolution (looks like 480p).

anyone already tried xcloud on your machines? how is the connection and experience like?

The Cloud Gaming option appeared already on my XSX ... can sort/view games pass library for supported cloud games ... can choose to play through Cloud instead of Install.

But I couldn't get my TP-Link router to setup SurfShark VPN ... so, couldn't try. doh.gif

However, if hardware doesn't really matter since it's basically just streaming, I guess the experience is almost/just like XCloud Gaming on my non-gaming PC ...

I did try a Unifi fibre 100Mbps line vs a 800Mbps connection, the latter seems can get higher resolution, a bit.

Those who got Time 100Mbps download/upload, maybe can share experience?

Psychonauts 2 1 of the best platformer game or game I’ve played. Rate it better than Ratchet and clank series i played before. But not the new time rift cos no ps5 lol. Story plot really good, combat good, lots of platforming very interesting dialogue and funny. Anyone havent play this i totally recommend this game. I have played 1 on xbox 360, tat is a damn good game too. Not sure how it aged but worth to play also.

Yes, agreed. One of the best platformer and GOTY contender last year.
I 100% it last year. One of the easier game to fully complete. biggrin.gif

Instead of feeling relief when (without knowing the effect of) kicking the vase(?) that stopped the Glory to Grulovia (?) music, I was disheartened ... wanted to hear moar of the infectious song. Luckily it continued ...
Great sequel to Psychonauts 1, and the VR (1.5) game Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin.

My XGPU also expired suddenly on 6/16/2022, altho I didn't do anything.

I do have an open tab on Microsoft Edge, for https://www.office.com/ login using the same hotmail account as registered for my Xbox account, but it's been like that few months ago; no error message like what awol experienced, so I think that's not the reason for my case.

Anyway, the guy who helped me did 36 months XGPU (started from Oct 2021), said wait for 1 or 2 more days, see if it's a glitch.

Googled, only few people posted the same issue on Microsoft Community site, but no answers yet.

Game Pass Subscription Cancellations

Xbox has identified a fraudulent group of resellers who were stacking multiple instances of the PC introductory offer and converting it to Game Pass Ultimate. To resolve this issue, we have notified the impacted users individually prior to having their fraudulently acquired subscriptions cancelled.

F.A.Q

Why are you canceling these Xbox Game Pass subscriptions?

We’ve found a select number of memberships that were acquired through sources that are in violation of the Microsoft Services Agreement. Subscriptions must be purchased directly from Microsoft digital store or via verified third-party retailers.


What will happen to members account data and game history?

This will all be preserved. Your account will stay but the subscription will be deactivated.


What is the guidance for impacted Xbox Game Pass members?

Impacted members can resubscribe at any time via Join Xbox Game Pass: Discover Your Next Favorite Game | Xbox OR verified third-party sellers.


How many members will this impact?

While we aren’t disclosing the number of impacted members, this is a small portion of the Xbox Game Pass community."

Am I mis-remembering : I thought turning on Xbox SX would make the TV auto-switch the input to the Xbox?

Mine doesn't do that now; so have to press the Xbox button to manually switch to it. CEC on both Xbox n TV r turned on.

Oh, mine also. I always prefer my TV to auto-switch input source to my XSX when I pressed the controller.

Lately, I think after the UI changes, it started not to do that.
