MAKING MY OWN PHYSICAL GAMEPASS - Free Game Collection

[@cliffdoes_stuff4012]

The best thing I like about the One X is its backwards compatibility just by having the physical discs. I picked up the first three Splinter Cell games from the original Xbox for a couple of quid and I am currently part way through a playthrough of the entire series.

[@gentlemanofgames]

Oh nice splinter cell is a top series. Yeah I agree the backwards comparable element is another solid reason not to ignore the system 🤘

[@ChilliKnightOG]

Love this. I have been collecting a lot of Xbox 360 and Xbox One games - Xbox One games are so, so cheap and run so well on the Series X! Subscription services are never there forever, but with a physical you can always play it!

[@gentlemanofgames]

@@ChilliKnightOG gald you agree mate, my sentiments exactly having a physical collection can never be beaten by gamepass, thanks for watching 🤘

[@legendkiller2k]

Really enjoyed this video mate and what a fantastic idea build your own gamepass/ps+ collection.

[@gentlemanofgames]

Cheers mate, really happy to have got a load of games I actually play 😁

[@GreatScott.]

Physical media all the way buddy. great pickups there and lots of hours of fun 😎

[@gentlemanofgames]

So many hours mate and building a collection I have been missing out on 🤘

[@JMplaysFM]

Love this content, I saw it, it looked cool so I bought it. Good on you mate

[@gentlemanofgames]

Old skool mentality mate and must agree made it a bit more fun again 🤘

[@pyschocurt]

As a lover of City sims and Sims in general I feel you on that project highrise haha Makes me feel boring whenever i try to explain what a games about! Tropico/Zeus Master of Olympus are 2 of my all time favourites Honourable mentions to Theme Hospital and Cleopatra - Love the idea on this btw so hoping for frequent updates! especially on the games you've yet to play.

[@gentlemanofgames]

I always start sims and give up when I get a job 🤣 tropico is great series, such a good twist on city builder formula, port royale series may interest you?? I'm going to look to do another xbox pass update soon as I get more 🤘

[@pyschocurt]

@gentlemanofgames I'll keep my eyes peeled for port royale then ! Some times I just need a cosy game to unwind with ! Look forward to seeing more man keep it up :)

[@j1m909]

Exactly what I've done, got an Xbox one s 1tb for £60 over Xmas. Since then I've just been picking up games I see out and about I like the look of.

[@gentlemanofgames]

Great way to go about it for xbox one, games so cheap it's not a problem if they are not great and if they are, boom physical collection, thanks for watching 🤘

[@Kezza1430]

Good idea mate I’ve recently realised I’m always scrolling through gamepass never installing I only have it for online play😅

[@gentlemanofgames]

Not the only one mate, scroll through the list deciding what I would like to play, play nothing and put the PS2 on instead, no more 🤘

[@SuperMegaDave_]

Really great mix of games added to the collection and a fun way to build it up too. The xbone and xsx seem to be very cheap physically which is great for taking chances on games that would be passed at full price. Occupation, that’s new to me. Set around the time I was born and in the area I currently live, I feel I owe to myself to check it out! I enjoy the genre too, thanks for another great vid! Also, like the Celtics hat! 🎉

[@gentlemanofgames]

🍀🏀 champions mate 🤘 cheers bud, give occupation a search as I honestly don't know if it's good or not as not played it but same as you, based in 1987 UK... I'm not not going to pick it up 😅 thanks for watching mate

[@edstephenson5163]

Great video. Hope you do follow up video on the games you’ve not yet played

[@gentlemanofgames]

Oh I'll probably do another one later when I have got some more to share and I'll go back over the ones I have not played... or might post on Instagram 🤔 thanks for watching mate 🤘

[@alexhanson7623]

Got rid of my ps plus about 2 years ago, always felt no obligation to play something i hadn't purchased. I've also taken the old school approach of front and back covers. Only thing i tend to do is check on how long to beat to see what length of game I'm getting myself into! Great video though, enjoyed the topic! Could make a great series, give yourself 12.99 a month to add to your gamepass

[@gentlemanofgames]

Ohhh that's a good idea as a side challenge 🤔 think you right about subscription, don't pick it no obligation then you end up just giving over money. Thanks for watching mate 🤘

[@DanAndHew94]

Great video as always buddy. That's why I love these videos Ive never heard of "The Occupation" can see they do a PS4 version and looks right up my street, let us know if you get chance to play it what it's like. 👍

[@gentlemanofgames]

Me too mate, thought got to give a go but genuinely no idea if any good... it could be horrific 🤣 give it a Google before you buy just incase 😉 I'm going to play it soon 🤘

[@Jacobite_Gaming]

Greta vid mate love your content . I have gamepass as it came with my series x and I’ve played very few games on it . Mainly brotato. Never owned a Xbox one so was considering diving into that library now that 360 games have sky rocketed in price :)

[@gentlemanofgames]

Oh mate 360 games are a bit silly atm, I recon will slow down soon. Some good games on the xbox one not getting the love, suggest worth having a look mate, thanks for the support 🤘

[@markdouglas9875]

Some quality titles for the price... Ive got port royale on my backlog and the project highrise game looks great 👍

[@gentlemanofgames]

Project highrise shocked me... a proper one more turn game. Port royale is a great series still not got to port royale 4 yet but I will 🤘

[@Bearded_retro_gamer]

Great video mate, totally agree with collecting Xbox One games over game pass. 👍🏼😎

[@gentlemanofgames]

Really enjoying collecting and playing the m sooo cheap and easy to collect 🤘

[@Andyzoot]

"I'll start my own Gamepass! With blackjack and hookers! In fact, forget the Gamepass! " Had no idea Crackdown 3 was £1.50. That's at least worth a shot. Thanks for the heads up.

[@gentlemanofgames]

🤣🤣 sounds like a good gamepass 🤖 not played it but for £1.50 how wrong can you go 🤘

[@fusiongunner25]

I have been a Xbox collector for a long time now and when the game pass came out it has help to lower the price on games when they came out. So I have got a a lot shelf feelers as people like to call them but not only that when they leave the game pass I still have the physical discs. I think at the moment I’m sitting around 400 Xbox one games

[@gentlemanofgames]

Oh nice, that is a lot xbox one games 😍 yeah that is a benefit for physical collectors, we all have shelves of 'filler' mate, part and parcel of collecting 🤘

[@TechTucker]

Definitely a good approach to utilising voucher. It's there to be spent! I am guilty of neglecting physical Xbox but that's largely cause Xbox do smart delivery so it's usually the Xbox one version on disc and I opt for PS5 physical instead. Some solid games there, I've enjoyed the Alex kidd remake on the switch and I remember getting contra cause it was £6 on switch which is a fair price 🤣 awesome video

[@gentlemanofgames]

Love spending voucher on a game and then immediately playing it 👌 more xbox than playstation myself but got to get the ps exclusives. Alex Kidd is a great game, hard as hell but love playing it, got a key ring too... bonus 😅

[@retrosmashtv]

This is actually a sick idea. Great video mate. It’s a shame about the contra game being a bit naff some nice pickups. I wished my Xbox one collection was better.

[@gentlemanofgames]

Cheers mate I'm happy with the approach, actually playing all the games I pick up which is great not to add to the backlog 🤘 I'm sure you xbox one collection will grow at some point 👍

[@retrosmashtv]

@@gentlemanofgames I wonder what will be the most expensive in like 5 years on the Xbox one

[@thephysicalcollector]

Love this idea mate, I’m usually someone who knows what I’m going into CeX for when I go but I think I’ll try your approach for a change next time. I’m more of a PS4 man from that generation and it’s a collection I’ve been neglecting for a while since I’ve been going for 360 too so this is definitely something I want to give a go myself. Great video man 👊🏻

[@gentlemanofgames]

Cheers mate from your name can see you would appreciate. Same mate go in with a plan but for Xbox 1 going forward no plan for me anymore, they are cheap enough to just risk trying something new, PS4 are the same (tad more but nothing shocking) thanks for watching 🤘

Nice one mate,love this idea! Cancelled all my subscriptions just after Xmas,this gen in gaming is extremely poor (I’m finding it that way) so been going through backlog 😊 ps narco series is brilliant!!

[@gentlemanofgames]

Cheers mate, get through that backlog, I have been focusing on PS2 most this year so XB1 is a big graphic jump. Need to watch the series I know but xcom with cocaine... what a review 🤭

[@TommasoRusso420]

Wicked Celtics hat! I agree about Gamepass. I'm so sick of it but that's just me. I do regret pre-ordering a Series X I loved Deus Ex. I just wish it didn't end abruptly, but it was a stealth game that truly tested me. Crackdown 3 was decent, but 1 will always be the best. Great video idea and purchases all around!

[@gentlemanofgames]

@@TommasoRusso420 cheers mate 👍 love a celtics hat 😅 yeah played a bit of deus ex it's good so far, not got round to crackdown yet. Gamepass has some merit but not enough for me to pay that much for it each month, thanks for watching 🤘

I have my own gamepass too. But Im still occationally subscriber for GP too because from that I play brand new games, which I cant afford to buy. And I do actually play those of them I like. I have also figured out some great games through GP, which I later bought to my own collection. Anyways, I have like hundreds xbox games from og xbox era to Series s/x era in my bought xbox game library, both digital and physical. Biggest collection I have for xbox360 and thats my favorite era of gaming. and I bought all the games from big discounts over the years.

[@gentlemanofgames]

I'm with you on the 360 mate, easily the best co slle and generation for me, my collection is decent size and very cheap. Tge gamepass has a lot of merits especially the new release games, just for me I was not using it so made a change in direction. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤘

Best way to pick a game, I'm lucky I get my game pass free with my phone contract so have the best of both worlds. Although admittedly I don't really use it haha, Some great games coming day one this year and next so it may be useful soon.

[@gentlemanofgames]

Well if it's freeware that's fair enough not to use that often that's a good way to get it. Don't get me wrong the game pass is great especially with day one games... but not for me right now

[@bimbibenny]

I actually just bought that deus ex game. It’s really fun!

[@gentlemanofgames]

I'm going to get round to it soon but few people have mentioned that it's really good... especially for £2

[@hybrid_Batman]

I got an xbox one without game pass too. I mainly get exclusives but I don't have that many as I'm focusing on xbox 360 games I want before the shop closes. I love the idea of you making your gamepass and would love to see more and I might have to steal the idea from you😂 nice pickups as always🎉 I rarely look at reviews unless it's a game that I love😅 finally got my phat ps2 today, went to cex and saw an unboxed one!

[@gentlemanofgames]

By all means steal it mate that's what collecting is all about 🤘 oh nice well done hope it works well, got that sweet 24 month warranty if not. 360 prices are getting a bit silly in some places now 😬 thanks for watching, enjoy the PS2

Is this going to be a mini series? 'This is what I've added to Game Pass this month'. I've slowed up on building my own Netflix but one of the rules I had was you're only allowed to spend the amount of the subscription per month.

[@gentlemanofgames]

Oooh that's a good rule to follow 👍 make it more s challenge. Probably not a mini series as all part of the FGC but I recon I will do 1 more once played these ones 👍 they are so cheap 😅

So cheap mate might as well, as everything it will go up in price eventually, oh put it on mate... its weird but defo worth a play through, especially multiplayer 🤘

[@S3lph131]

The xbox one is easily the most slept on system since the psp.. the psp way too easy install.. custom firmware.. xbox has gamepass.. Unlike systems like the wii u.. which has a smaller game library to attract the completionist collectors.. these have plenty of games waiting to be snagged up :) People need to talk about this more :)

Some strange pickups there, but if you like that sort then fare play to you. I'm not into the turn based games really, so a few of them are not for me. Think I'm gonna have a look in mine to see what I can find, although I do use gamepass quite a bit.

I'm a Xbox one/series X collector and it is very cheap at the moment however not so cheap when I'm trying a little subset of backwards compatible 360 games that are in Xbox one boxes 😂😂 also Microsoft rewards pays for my gamepass. I haven't bought it with real money for ages.

Glad your coming away from the sub services. I've done the same with playstation plus. don't get me wrong, it's good to try games your unsure of but with the cheap prices these days it makes sense to actually own the games. Forza is one recent example of delisted games that you don't own. Physical games are all that matters. Hence my crazy fetish for ps1 games.
