    @charlieINTEL have you heard of anyone on Xbox not being able to play after the recent update? It won’t let me sign in and just keeps replaying the intro over and over again. I’ll attach a video

  • ps5unban PlayStation 5 Unban Bot (@ps5unban) reported

    I read every line of EULAs and I am 100% confident that my banned machine and my banned friends did not violate them. Both were banned without a persuasive reason from your customer service! I had no issue with #XBOX and #NintendoSwitch for years btw! (3/7)

  • rageinthecage34 Tim Too Much (@rageinthecage34) reported

    @SHiFTstatus I'm having issues with stutter on Xbox series x

  • Colyn07988648 Colyn (@Colyn07988648) reported

    @RavenSoftware Im still having issues with my game chat on xbox. I can be heard for a second and it just cuts out.

  • alexwhalen Just Alex (@alexwhalen) reported

    @XCOM 2 on XBOX broken. With War to Chosen installed, hangs at “Press A to play” screen. Without it installed, gets an “invalid IP error.” Tried deleting and reinstalling. Nope. Boo!

  • jakewarsaw Jake Warsaw (@jakewarsaw) reported

    @KingCashLXXV @TatataToddC @firstadopter What I said was what I found. If you have a problem with what I said, blame the source, don’t blame me. All the sales charts show the Xbox selling more these days. Unless you think selling more is indicative of less demand I don’t know what to tell you. Enjoy your PS5!

  • matthewhenzel VideoGameObssession🇺🇸🇺🇦 (@matthewhenzel) reported

    @BrotherBodhi_ @jasonschreier @6d6f636869 Maybe not.. I guess my brother was using a USB stick to backup/restore saves. Does Xbox allow you to access a cloud save system that isn't behind a paywall? I've not paid for Xbox online service since the 360.

  • FakeJacobe jacobe (@FakeJacobe) reported

    my 8 GB mac and xbox one are not friends who woulda thought I’m running to walmar to get a Gamer™ headset if this isn’t fan service idk what is I AM GONNA STREAM TONIGHT

  • brown_shannon1 Shannon Brown (@brown_shannon1) reported

    @Danielizaduraid @XboxSupport You get this fixed? I’m having the same error

  • ZOTDxEdu iFW Spetsnaz (@ZOTDxEdu) reported

    @Dee_Batch @Under_Ach1ever @XboxSupport It denied for me a refund on shadow Warrior 3.... It was completely broken, broken audio, game freezing... And I only played ~15min of the game

  • enderxander Xander (@enderxander) reported

    I'm about ready to mute everything related to Xbox and Playstation for a few weeks. The rumored subscription service hasn't even been announced yet and there is already a ridiculous amount of toxicity over which company is printing more money from it and other dumb arguments.

  • brucemeowshall bruce (@brucemeowshall) reported

    @Crunchyroll why tf do I have to re-login every month on the Xbox app? It's annoying and doesn't happen with any other app.

  • realcapog DR.Donald Duck (@realcapog) reported

    @ContractorsPov He might be one of the eBay scammers that go on swappa and resell it for more. Some guy did the same thing to me on mercari and claimed the Xbox I sold him had a raddling noise inside, but the console was in mint condition and check for any issues, but he was a reseller…

  • JustinTPhotos BeardNyeTheCameraGuy (@JustinTPhotos) reported

    @RocketLeague please fix the Xbox bug where you go to group free play between matches then one or more of the players are basically invisible and it adds AI players to the team while the invisible teammates are still in there. Lol it’s happened for weeks. My crew can’t be only 1s

  • sGarvett x EL MAESTRO x (@sGarvett) reported

    @UnfazedWil @BavariravaB @OhNoItsAlexx Now they don’t. But in the past almost every game did. In fact PS1 & PS2 consoles were released with demo disc included with a variety of games. I remember even getting demo disc from PS magazine and Xbox magazines. Either we don’t know for sure what is part of the service.

  • mynametako Tako (@mynametako) reported

    @UbisoftSupport Im on the original xbox one, but its been only the last few days i've had issues and only on siege. It could be my wifi but it seems only to be an issue on siege.

  • CriggityCraigS Craig (@CriggityCraigS) reported

    @SHiFTstatus I'm on PS5 and my friend is on XBox and my lag is horribly long to the point that I can't even help him

  • vandameg305 Van Dame (@vandameg305) reported

    @EAHelp I’ve been experiencing some issues with claiming Twitch Prime loot for Apex Legends and receiving it on Xbox One. I’ve tried the Contact Us section on EA’s website, but that sends me straight to the community questions, which in turn sends me back to Contact Us.

  • NowImLee Lee (@NowImLee) reported

    @EASPORTS I hope you’re aware ALL of your 2022 sports tittles crashed on Xbox Series X Fifa 22 Madden 22 F1 2021.. NHL 22 BF 2042 Don’t tell people it’s your console.. it works fine with anything but an EA tittle suggest you and your devs FIX your **** for the new games!

  • jakemabbott 🪄𝕄𝕒𝕘𝕚𝕔𝕜 𝕊𝕝𝕠𝕥𝕙 🦥 (@jakemabbott) reported

    @GamerSoapBox @KeyserS56435525 @JustAnLED When games are released day and date on a subscription service, they agree to a flat payout. There's no bonuses in play or anything that would encourage them to meet standards unless they work for Xbox. I have the very same concerns about Netflix and any sub service.

  • koplinsky Koplinsky (@koplinsky) reported

    @Under_Ach1ever @Xbox Ive gone through this and after a lot of back and forth with customer service it got resolved.

  • jgleason45 THE P90X MAN (@jgleason45) reported

    @Under_Ach1ever @Xbox I believe the Xbox policy is if the play time is longer than 1 hour for a digital game it’s not refundable. Pretty sure it’s an hour, but either way seems like this is a played too long issue. Hope this helps!

  • EDotGifted 𝕰𝕯𝖔𝖙𝕲𝖎𝖋𝖙𝖊𝖉 ™ (@EDotGifted) reported

    @Vixenmoder Xbox remote play is working for you? It's not working for me 🥲

  • JohnMil08149317 Reaper Angelus (@JohnMil08149317) reported

    @Dorian38851525 @CommanderWyn @thegameawards I've encountered maybe 1 glitch, but even then, I'm not sure it was one. I'm on Xbox One and aside from frame rate drops, I haven't really noticed many glitches.

  • Teddymouse1 The Mouse (@Teddymouse1) reported

    @SHiFTstatus The game is almost unplayable(xbox) cause of the lag which my guess of the game trying to reconnect to the Shift servers...if it connects it doesn't stay connected for long. Trying to be patient but the lag cause of the trying to reconnect is frustrating trying my patients.

  • Tony23____ Tony (@Tony23____) reported

    @TrueGameData @ModernWarzone So I’m assuming there’s no player count somewhere that tracks how many people play certain games (cod, fortnite, etc)? FYI I hadn’t played since December (cuz of the Xbox issues) but started playing rebirth this week cuz of the new update. Got me interested again.

  • Addiction1320 Andrew Raghunath (@Addiction1320) reported

    @RavenSoftware fix the texture issue on Xbox series x. We have on demand texture streaming disabled and still have this issue! Y’all are losing people to this game cuz of dumb glitches

  • ReverseBoon BoonReverse (@ReverseBoon) reported

    subnautica below zero (xbox) is broken and I am very mad about it cuz I lost 45 minutes of progress
