My lad wants this for his 10th birthday next week. He's had the XBox 18 months. My knowledge of gaming ended near 40 years ago when I played Atari and the ZX Spectrum.
Worth it? 12 month membership looks to be about £50. Amazon the best bet? Looks like you purchase and are given a code to download? Apologies for my ignorance and thanks in advance for any advise.

I would advise getting the Gamepass Ultimate subscription. It includes Xbox Gold and access to Gamepass which is like a Netflix style subscription with 100+ games he can download and play.
Costs about 50 quid a year but if you shop around you can usually find some deals.

Just so your aware if you dont go for the ultimate pass, with the xbox gold you get 4 free games every month as well not always the best games but sometimes theres some awesome ones included.
The 4 this month are, although the rrp is always inflated as you could always get them from cex pretty cheap anyway
