The Xbox Passport

In this episode of The Xbox Passport we have our good friend and Canadian Gaming dad Matthew Rodina aka Dapper Tux to talk about fun Family games to play on Xbox Game Pass. We also talk a bit about Steve's first week thoughts of Starfield, and also that this will be our last show of The Xbox Passport. We want to thank everyone who came along with us on this journey this year. We hope we helped you find new fun games to play on Xbox Game Pass, which we still think is the best value in gaming. While we will stop travelling for now, we will still fill our Game Pass Passports with amazing games from amazing creators. And we hope you will too. So long! And thanks for travelling along with us.

After the craziness of June, we took July off as a summer break, and we're back with the first of two episodes in August. In this episode we have the wonderful Brittney Brombacher from "What's Good Games" on with us to discuss our favourite co-op games. Games that we love to play with our loved ones and the ones that could make you so frustrated you die laughing. Raise a glass to our +1's.
