Original DOOM designer John Romero thinks Xbox Game Pass is "really great"

John Romero, co-founder of legendary first-person shooter developer id Software and designer on the original DOOM, is a big fan of Xbox Game Pass. That tidbit popped up during a recent interview where Romero spoke with Luke Lohr of Xbox Expansion Pass.

"It's great because it's try before you buy. You try something, install it, if you like it dive in and go buy the expansions, go get the rest of it," he says. "It's a really great way to just try stuff, one thing after another thing. Really the barrier for people to play games is just access to those games. Even free-to-play games, it's like, knowing that those games exist, and Game Pass is like 'Here they are!'"
