"Microsoft recently announced they're bumping the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate price to $30 per month from the current $20 which is a significant increase that makes locking in the old pricing more appealing than ever. The price hike hasn't rolled out everywhere yet, and Amazon is capitalizing on this transition during Prime Big Deal Days by offering a three-month membership for $56, down from $59. This deal isn't limited to Prime members, anyone can grab it, but it expires Wednesday night."
"The cloud gaming feature allows you to stream games directly onto your phone, tablet, or laptop without the need to download gigabytes of information or have high-powered hardware. It works on decent internet which will require at least 10-20 Mbps on average per smooth action. You can play a game on the Xbox in the living room and then continue on your phone on the way to work or lunch."
"Cross-play and cloud saving keep your progress in sync across all your devices: Play a campaign on your Xbox Series X at home, continue on your Windows laptop in a coffee shop, then cap off a session streaming on your tablet in bed. Integration across the ecosystem comes effortlessly after signing into your Microsoft account and reduces the friction in managing saves or retreating to purchase games on multiple platforms. The membership includes Xbox Live Gold benefits which gives you access to online multiplayer on every one of your Xbox games. This is a necessity on games like Halo Infinite, Sea of Thieves, or any competitive multiplayer experience."
