  • BPAxrom BP🕹Axrom ||| @PokemonLegendsArceus (@BPAxrom) reported

    @thicc_stick_boi That is knowing nothing from the Xbox Costumer Service. If you want a refund of something like that if they announce a "cancellation" im pretty sure they going to refund u every goddamn cent. They literally refund me a 3month sub just because i forgot to cancel the renewal.

  • notsp0ndyle 🇺🇦Not Sp0ndyle (@notsp0ndyle) reported

    @xAceRPG @Kotaku @OhNoItsAlexx He is absolutely wrong, you can count the game as a lost sale because it’s literally a copy of the game that would have been sold NOT BEING SOLD, and cracking games isn’t going to be the issue, you’ll have consoles like the Xbox that won’t even keep a copy on the disc to stop it.

  • Black_The_Kid Mattspoteos (@Black_The_Kid) reported

    @Hitman @Xbox is there going to be a fix to family accounts not being able to play on gamepass like any other game? It's a little weird

  • Apollo2JZ Aeterna Sol (@Apollo2JZ) reported

    To be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of @Xbox anymore, either. I may have an Xbox One S, but most games I want to play on it either aren't 60fps or have massive input lag. I even have my doubts about @NintendoAmerica, what with their recent stuff. (2/3)

  • KLynn0h KLynn0 (@KLynn0h) reported

    @Carlton05596313 @SHiFTstatus I experienced it with host was ps4 and the other 2 of us were on xbox series x. Host had no issues but us on the series x couldn't climb, spells wouldn't work half the time, couldn't reload weapons, and we were ice skating halfway across the map/teleworking when not moving.

  • MeanTweetWriter Anthony Finney (@MeanTweetWriter) reported

    @XboxSupport No response to my controllers not connecting when u plugged from the USB cable. Tried 5 controllers. Console sync button not working. My brand loyalty is costing me a lot of money with having sent in the last 4 gens of console for repairs.

  • MidNightSlot spilledthemayo (@MidNightSlot) reported

    @S7eeFN @materioart @Zyndetta I have a ps3 and can tell you the expirence was more or less the same as xbox 360, not saying it didn't have issues but why should we have to pay for better connections when games like fortnite are providing both a quality game and also a great online service all for free

  • Problem159 Problem 159 (@Problem159) reported

    @PlayWonderlands The Xbox codes are not working

  • salem_strange Salem_Strange (@salem_strange) reported

    @PlayWonderlands please please please fix the issues of this game is has so much potential but when ever I die the respawn animation “overheats” my console many people with previous gen Xbox ones are having this issue, please don’t be a bad company and ignore it

  • Dearan89 Sebastian Kruse (@Dearan89) reported

    @YuhMadda @NextGenPlayer @BAFTAGames The first Xbox controller was just a GameCube rip off with a different shell… The DS2 is compared against the Xbox Elite controller which is pretty much garbage due to huge issues in both generations.

  • cendicott realCovid19 (@cendicott) reported

    .@Microsoft @Xbox has the worst account recovery service. Absolutely insufferable. Terrible, outdated system.

  • Konquistador043 Konquistador (@Konquistador043) reported

    @UbisoftSupport Every time I go to play Far Cry 6 on my Xbox Series X, I get a Trapper-91221573 error. I’ve checked the forums, reinstalled the game, hard rebooted my system, rebooted my (wired) network, cleared my cache & erased my save. Current Version is 1.4.62.91. HELP! 😥😡

  • NaterStephanie StephanieHatesMinorities (@NaterStephanie) reported

    A my sister came to fix my xbox 720 yesterday

  • PapaKraven PapaKraven (@PapaKraven) reported

    @SHiFTstatus and i of course did my research before putting in the ticket, i checked around and found out the issue was not limited to xbox

  • drlevelup DrLevelUp (@drlevelup) reported

    @TheThirstyMage @GentleJeffrey The question is would Sony go through all the extreme licensing issues for these games like Xbox did.

  • shadow06294177 shadow (@shadow06294177) reported

    @XboxSupport Is anyone experiencing an issue where you disconnect from xbox live every 10-15 minutes? I find this problem most common on gta 5.

  • MexJ88 Juan Garcia (@MexJ88) reported

    @DoWhatYouDo6 @GamingTwic Not only Xbox fans but the so-called gaming journalist community helped and even championed this type of service. There's only one legit gaming journalist and his name is @jasonschreier. All others are wannabes that are looking for that freebie from companies

  • deanimal21_ deanimal21 ❤️❤️❤️ (@deanimal21_) reported

    @SHiFTstatus Is it all platforms? We’ve been fine on Xbox one and series x since the first fix

  • salem_strange Salem_Strange (@salem_strange) reported

    @GearboxOfficial please please please fix the issues of this game is has so much potential but when ever I die the respawn animation “overheats” my console many people with previous gen Xbox ones are having this issue, please don’t be a bad company and ignore it

  • thefrankstarkey Frank Starkey (@thefrankstarkey) reported

    @OGKrushz @WhatsTheStatus It's not console specific, but how the belt is created. I'm on Xbox Series X and I've had a few downloaded belts like this. Creator didn't add plates and just put images, which is what causes the issue.

  • cendicott realCovid19 (@cendicott) reported

    Going through the ACSR form with a live human agent and multiple errors, phone agent is very helpful but clearly hasn’t been provided correct information or training to assist. Just give the humans the keys @Microsoft @Xbox

  • secularist85 Jason (@secularist85) reported

    I love #Playstation but Sony has been ******* up the backwards compatibility issue since the PS3, was it that hard to have ps1-ps2 disks work on the ps3 or ps1-ps3 discs work on the ps4. I give respect to Microsoft for seeing the benefit of full backwards compatibility on #Xbox

  • mmaballer13_ Chris (@mmaballer13_) reported
