Following the precedence from this deal, I thought I’d share this deal as an option for console players who were considering purchasing this game when it releases on 25/02.

The game will cost $59.95 if you purchase it through the Microsoft store.

If you’d like to get your hands on Two Point Hospital, you’ll be able to enjoy it for yourself on February 25, 2020. You can pre-order Two Point Hospital digitally on the Microsoft Store, with two expansions included at launch! Or you can play on console with your Xbox Game Pass membership on the same day as the global release.

The Xbox One version includes two expansions: Bigfoot and Pebberley Island.

    for console players who were considering purchasing this game when it releases on 25/02.

    Umm GamePass doesn't let you own it.

    Like Netflix, you just to get to play it while its on the catalogue.

    I thought the community had spoken here

      It may not let you own it, but I generally find I’ve tired of a game by the time it leaves game pass. Saved me the $$ of buying it, that’s a deal in my book, thanks OP.

        I disagree… kids get hooked on a game, then I have to buy it when it leaves. Latest is lego city.

        But besides that, are we really going to list every new title on Gamepass/Netflix/spotify/local library as a bargain? Surely these announcements are for forums.

          Games on gamespass are sold at a reduced price to subscribers while they are on the service. If your kids like a game from gamespass buy them the game then and save 10%-25% on the price if they want to keep playing it beyond it being on GP

        The community did speak and the mods have introduced a way to hide these non deals from showing on your feed.

          Read this thread and the decision we came to on Wednesday based on the community feedback. I suggest for the less than a handful of deals posted, that you put the filter on.

          You're having a really hard time understanding what the information in the link (which you yourself posted) says, aren't you?

        But I assume we’re still allowed to neg them for not being deals?

        • Moderatorneil on 06/02/2020 - 09:16

          We don't want to but unfortunately if users continue to make these ridiculous comments, even after a solution has been offered for them to block seeing them, then yes.

          • [Deactivated] on 06/02/2020 - 10:21

            @neil: I’m not being a smartar$3, i was wondering.

            Personally I don’t think these are deals, filter or no filter (I can scroll past it),
            But to neg a deal, you need to comment and say why. That’s where the discussion begins. Which is fair enough. But it’s hardly a ridiculous comment.

            • heal on 06/02/2020 - 13:09

              @[Deactivated]: Continued comments get a bit ridiculous. We end up talking about side issues rather than the deal.

      Looks like you're wrong tbh. They've been consistently allowing these types of posts for awhile now. For some reason you're allowing it to tickle your nerves.

        Yet they don't allow Netflix, Spotify etc etc.

        You were saying?

        • smartazz104 on 06/02/2020 - 07:30

          Wonder why eBay Plus deals aren't thrown on that pile too…

        No Netflix, etc ones have been removed. Some reason Gamepass is deemed as different.

        All a bit silly agree3d. But a bit of consistency would be nice.

      Why don't you just skip over these deals rather than invest time commenting on them?

      The same way I scroll over every deal for Xiaomi Butt Scratchers or the latest $2000 video card that's now $2 off…

      Although this does seem a troll post considering its some game that nobody has ever heard of and will probably be downloaded 6 times worldwide.

      • [Deactivated] on 06/02/2020 - 11:38

        Agree except for the last part

        I've played Two Point Hospital and it's a decent little management game.

    I think this community has a mismatch between power users who want any opportunity to post a "deal" and get their stats up, and the majority of users of this site who want a deal (no quotation marks).

    If you only had the idea of posting it based on the precedent of a highly controversial deal then I'd suggest it's not a deal.

        Thanks OP, I've set a reminder so I can check on this game on the date to see if it is any good.

        I wonder if they’re doing some psychology studies.

        I wonder why you are putting so much effort into this thread, even going to the lengths of assuming that the op relishes in controversial deals and wondering loudly about his/her motivation. I've checked your voting history and with 3 negative votes on dealbots posts, I'm starting to wonder too.

        If you don't like a deal that the mods allow, then maybe you start up your own bargain website and can set the rules accordingly. Your vote is really not against dealbot or this post, but against OzBargain, because there are many others like this that are allowed in the rules.

        Why haven't you done this?

        • [Deactivated] on 06/02/2020 - 10:24

          Because I have to comment & give a reason why I gave a neg. people reply, i reply to their replies.

          why haven’t you done this?

          Because until Neil pointed out iup above, I was unaware, where you?
          But we get to vote on deals, I don’t think this is a deal. So I voted as such, that’s what thi site is about. Why are you so upset?

            @[Deactivated]:

            Because until Neil pointed out iup above, I was unaware, where you?

            Yes I was, because they have allowed this type of deal for some time. You know it too, as you have negged these type of deals before.

            But we get to vote on deals, I don’t think this is a deal. So I voted as such, that’s what thi site is about

            Yes, Neil has confirmed that whilst OzBargain doesn't want you to and would rather you filter these deals, you can keep negging.

            Why are you so upset?

            Gone from assuming the op relishes in controversial deals, to suggesting they are doing a psychology study, to me being upset. I had a chuckle at that one. Anyway, to make it official so that you don't have to struggle to read between the lines, I'm not upset at all. Not even a tiny bit.

            And to just add a side note, I think that gun deals should be allowed. I don't have a firearms licence and am not interested in shooting. I think they made a knee jerk reaction because of the comments of a very vocal minority. OzB made a decision to ban gun deals. That's their call. Accept and move on.

  • curtturtle on 06/02/2020 - 09:01

    This is a super addictive game and well worth it if you played the original theme hospital on PC. I am not sure how it will play on console as it is fairly mouse heavy. But I am looking forward to giving it a shot.

    For those saying it is not a deal, all games pass games are on special for subscribers to buy when they are up on the service. So it is a deal if you wish to purchase a permanent copy of the game.

      And this and every games pass thread doesn't mention that at all.

    Very glad this was posted. I am keen to play this game and was willing to spend the $ on it but knowing it is on Game Pass has saved me $60 from buying or potentially pre-ordering it.

    Thanks OP.

      Pre-order? This has been out for months though, absolutely nails the Theme Hospital legacy!

      • [Deactivated] on 06/02/2020 - 09:39

        No, it is released on Xbox on February 25th.

        • Switchblade88 on 06/02/2020 - 15:17

          Ah, I was thinking it was also Game Pass PC. I wonder if they'll push it out later?

          I've been thoroughly enjoying Cities: Skylines with a controller on my PC. Those guys did a really superb job on the port, and I find it faster and easier to navigate with a controller than KB+M, strangely enough. This is coming from a Simcity 2000 veteran!

          Hopefully the controller UX for TPH is just as good.

  • [Deactivated] on 06/02/2020 - 09:37

    Thanks OP. Was keen to play this game, but the $60 tag was a bit off putting. Glad I don't have to buy it now.
