Alright, alright, listen up! If you’re anything like me, a 40-something dad with a wife, two kids, and a passion for gaming that just won’t quit, then xbl120.com is your new best friend. See, I get it. The struggle is real. One minute you’re in the middle of a critical raid, the next your kid is standing there, creepy kid style, asking for a snack. Or your wife is giving you “the look,” telling you it’s time to put down the controller and engage with reality.

Game Start…

But here’s the thing about Xbox Game Pass. It’s the ultimate workaround, the secret weapon for us busy gaming dads. First, it’s not about dropping hundreds on a single game that you might not even have time to play, unless it’s a 70,000+ dollar flight simulator with full motion controls (one day). It’s a subscription, it’s affordable, and it gets you access to a massive library of games. We’re talking everything from casual stuff you can play in short bursts, to those big, immersive experiences for when you do score some uninterrupted time, granted it hasn’t been so long that you have to learn how to play the game all over again.

And the beauty of it? You can play how you want. On your Xbox, on your PC, even on your phone or tablet with their cloud gaming option (making an article on that option as well). So, if the living room is occupied, or you find yourself waiting in the car, or sitting on a bench at the mall while they are only, ‘trying on a few shoes’, you can squeeze in a quick gaming session.

Leveling Up…

Now, I know what you’re thinking. “With so many games, where do I even start?” That’s where xbl120.com comes in. As a fellow gaming dad, I’ll be reviewing the games that matter, the ones worth your precious time. I’ll give you the lowdown, from one dad to another, on what’s a waste of time, and what’ll level you up and keep you up way past bedtime.

Final Boss…

I’ll share my strategies for gaming on a crowded schedule, for sneaking in a few levels when everyone thinks you’re working from home, like having Microsoft Flight Simulator running on one PC while working on your work PC. And most importantly, I’ll show you how Xbox Game Pass can be your escape, your way to face that Final Boss and recapture some of that gaming joy from back in the day.

Closing Credits…

So, if you’re a 40-something gaming dad, still got the passion but not always the time, then join me at xbl120.com. Let’s make this gaming thing work, let’s show our families we can still get our game on!
