Activision Blizzard do not have plans to put Modern Warfare III or Diablo IV into Game Pass this year but once the deal closes they expect to start working with Xbox and add the games to Games Pass (twitter.com)

Ok, that sounds better. I really don't play that many games so as long as I still have the option to straight-up buy the ones I do play, that is cool.

Yes then it's not for you. Game pass is more for the active players that play a lot of games. If you at least play and finish a game each month, even each 2 months then it's simply cheaper to have Game Pass instead of buying the games (if you're going to play new AAA on release day)

It's a pretty good value if you play at least 1 AAA title every 3 months or 1 indie game a month. I've tried games I never would have bought (Some I didn't like and I liked game pass even more for it, because now I'm not out 20-60+$ or having to research every game or make sure I play within refund limits) and it's cratered my desire to sail the Gaming seas.

It's kinda like the good days of Netflix, but for games, I'd get in and enjoy it while it lasts because we all know where it'll end up eventually....
