    I think less video gaming may be in the cards for me. I will just play my backlog and enjoy that. I should write down
    all the titles in my backlog.

    I may sell my PS5 and all the games. I tried their ultimate plan for a month and their 100 free movies were kinda garbage. I may even sell my XB1X as well because if you get their ultimate plan, you no longer need a console. I've been able to play cloud games on my cell, my Mega 3 VR, and my PC.

    How's the experience been? I've used their services a bit myself, but it was a year or two ago since I last looked.

    My experience was that it was a bit lagged when it came to FPS games, and you don't get all games on their service....

    MUCH better. I've been a member since the original xbox centuries ago, but never their high-end systems when they were available. I just finally canx'd my GAMEFLY account because of it. Gamefly I had for 16+ years. PS/XB/BlueRay/DVD .. but they've changed so much since COVID19 that it just wasn't worth it to me because the streaming services and gaming platforms always had the item out for me to test before gamefly's 10-14 shipping got to me.

    I haven't tried FPS yet on XBOX cloud, but I tend to play those locally anyways with a friend or three. (locally I mean, we own the games - we live pretty far apart).
