Xbox Series S/X + GamePass

[Fizzical]

Cannot.

have to wait till GPU is expired, then do again.
Else it will convert 1:3 ratio, eg 12 months of game live to 4 months of GPU IF your GPU is active

If we let the GPU expired, can we use the $1 trial trick? Had already used the trial back then...or we have to create a new account?

The trick still works? I thought the Xbox Gold Live to GPU loophole was closed?

they closed the EA Play to GPU loophole. Xbox Gold Live to GPU is actually ENCOURAGED by Microsoft execs as a lifehack hahaha. https://www.techradar.com/sg/news/m...save-cash-on-game-pass-ultimate-with-lifehack


I guess cause Xbox Live Gold to GPU is left to right pocket. EA Play probably they lose money to EA.

Damn shiok man i've been playing GPU so much with my wife and kid.

Hope all good and ready to blast and play

all good now. i think the issue is I have a Dual WAN router at home (VQ + M1). so the xbox gets confused which connection to use sometimes. I forced my Xbox to use VQ only, and failover to M1 ONLY if VQ fails (instead of load balancing both connections)

now it works seamlessly all the time.

This is damn cool. The internal ssd quite ex and not cross compatible to use as PC ssd.

ya internal SSD some space genna makan by OS etc also already. I bought the Seagate Expansion card but even with both of that, space still a premium. so i only put Series X/S optimized games in internal SSD + Seagate (Every single optimized game there, left about 300-400gb). then every other game i put on external hdd.

Thanks bro. If I had already used the $1 GPU trial, can I still convert Gold to GPU subsequently when I let my current normal payment GPU lapse?

Hahaha ok bro. To be safe i'll just create a new account...

But like that cheapest way is to create account every 3 months..pay $1 for every 3 months to get GPU. Even cheaper than the lifehack! HAHA

Yea people were saying that but must re download the games right? Also they might retract this $1 offer sometime so better to lock in 3 years at $5/mth

Ah yes I used vpn too activate the Xbox gold us I bought from Newegg. When I had issues I didn't call. I used the chat in Microsoft Store and they were super helpful and patient

VPN is the key, when doing the code redemption.
