you must've "copied" them rather than moved them. Keep in mind, games dl from Gamepass must be kept on your internal drive to work-- at least in my experience.

I love this. A new XSX controller made with repurposed and recycled parts, for Earth Day. Looks great as well.
Too bad I don't need another one.

The more games I play on Game Pass, the more I dislike the Xbox controller, specifically the sticks. They're too tall and too loose - there is not enough resistance in the movement for my taste.
For anyone with the Elite controller, I know shorter sticks are available to install, but can you adjust the tension at all? If not, do the sticks feel any different to the standard controller?

So the Seagate storage drives are finally on sale for prices that are closer -- but still not close enough -- to the prices of the M.2 storage you can get for PS5.
Still far from great, but better than it's been for the last 2.5 years.
512GB = $89.99
1TB = $149.99
2TB = $279.99
Still $50 to $80 more than it should be by this point, IMO.

Can't be worse than the current one. I had to Google the free game titles and search for them manually because I couldn't figure out where to go to get the Free with Gold/GPU.

I believe there’s an unremovable tab when you scroll to bottom of Xbox homepage. Game Pass. Under all your add to homepage games. Tells you all GP games and free ones and stuff.

She means the Games With Gold.
I was able to add a tab to find those offered because it's almost impossible to find the freebies without them. But the games have been sooooo awful in the past year that I never even bother any more.
That said, there's an old but not-terrible game for free this month.

My ritual is searching Google for “games gold May 2023” (or whatever the month is). The Xbox Wire post is almost always one of the first results, and they include direct links to the Xbox store. I login and click “get” from there.
I’m sure there’s a better way, but that’s what I do. It has the advantage of not downloading the game(s) automatically, which I do remember being an annoyance when I’d redeem them on-console.

Re: Xbox Series X - 11/10/20
My pet peeve with games with gold is that unlike PS Plus, it defaults to installing them instead of just redeeming them. Is there a way to turn that off? I just want to add to my backlog, not actually play the game. Sheesh.

It is annoying. After I claim something, I go immediately to my queue and cancel the install.
I find the GwG stuff by going to the UGP page and scrolling down like eight rows.
