Gamepass would be cable for videogames, PBS for videogames would be a government agency that made them.

The government of Canada funds the development of a fair amount of video games through the Canadian media fund.

Are the results of that fund designed for compulsion to a lesser degree than most games made with similar sized budgets?

[dleslie]

It mostly funds indie titles, afaict, so I'll hazard to say they have less focus on compulsion.

PBS is not a government agency. According to [0] they get about 13% of their budget from the federal government and 5% from state governments. So less than 20% of their funding is from the government.
