I’ve been seeing this same reporting on other outlets but there’s a bit of confusion. So to clarify: GamePass Console tier is just what GamePass has always been already. You don’t get multiplayer access form Game Pass alone and you never have. You either had to also subscribe to Xbox live gold or boost your subscription to ultimate. Core is just Xbox Live Gold with a new name and an added bonus of a few rotating gamepass games as well. As of 2022 the Xbox live gold requirement for multiplayer was changed to not apply to free to play games. That may be why there is some confusion.
to be fair, the silent hill movie was pretty good, and max payne i feel was much better than it got credit for, as for mortal kombat, it was fun i guess but its a trash movie.
One of my favorite video game movies is Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva, not only is it wonderfully animated it is also canon to the mainline series games!
