Now, the first thing that makes it a good deal is the fact that I've never owned my own Xbox before, so I've never played any of the exclusives that Xbox fans will go on about.

Especially now that I have access to Microsoft Game Pass Ultimate, which is actually a superior service in many different ways. Needless to say I'm waiting for my subscription to expire, at which point I will not be renewing it again. Lately though, Sony have been taking the piss with their Playstation Plus service, which used to offer SIX (6) games every month, which has been reduced down to TWO (2), while the price remains the same. For the retailer, they suffer a little bit of a profit loss by offering good deals as part of the service, but they get a guaranteed income from multiple subscribers each and every month. As the customer, I get a good deal on good games and I regularly have something new to play. I've always been a fan of bundles and good-value subscription services for games, as it always seems like a win-win to me. Sounded like a decent way to rent-to-own an expensive console, but then they threw in Microsoft Game Pass Ultimate with the system and the deal suddenly became a no-brainer for me. The cost would be the equivalent of buying the system outright, but spread over monthly payments for two years. About a year ago I discovered that I could bundle in a brand new Xbox One X with my current mobile phone plan. You see, someone in marketing managed to come up with something that's not only a good idea, but a pretty good deal for consumers as well.
