Cheapest way to get Xbox Ultimate - New User


Recommended Posts

So I've bought a top of the range Neo QLED TV and it's got Samsung Game Hub built in and this will allow me to play Xbox games via the cloud but I need an Xbox Ultimate Subscription for it, I can get a months trial for £1 but in the past I've heard of really cheap ways to get 12 months on the super cheap, so I've got 2 questions.

Best way to get Xbox Ultimate really cheap?

How good or bad is streaming for Xbox via a TVs gaming hub?

I bet if you VPN to a country where they offer deals, sign up there, then switch back… that works with YouTube

I've already got a UK Xbox account before I switched to Playstation but I can look into it.

I've since read the upgrade from Xbox Live Gold to Ultimate trick for 36 months isn't as good now, I think I'll try the £1 for a month deal to see how good the streaming works via my 55QN95C telly as I don't really want to commit seeing I prefer the games on Playstation.

Do the monthlky trial first, the cheapest way to then do it as a new subscriber is to buy 3 years worth of Xbox Core then when you add that to your account after the trial has expired you'll get the option to convert it to 2 years of Ultimate. You can buy the subscriptions from any country and claim them on a UK account with VPN, I usually get the turkish ones from CDkeys.

Yep yep, this is what I've done twice.

    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?

    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
