  • IanCorcoran19 BluNtM4N 🇮🇪 (@IanCorcoran19) reported

    @oldmategamer @GamesWithToasty I wouldn't even call it a problem. Just an annoyance. The irony is that I emiminated this annoyance many years ago with rechargeable AAs I got for 11euro to use in my xbox controller. Rarely need a charge. No console warrior, but hands down, xbox better experience in this aspect.

  • ger4rdway 👸🏽 (@ger4rdway) reported

    @XboxSupport why is Game Pass not working? It’s not loaded now since last night

  • bj419er Bas J 🇳🇬 (@bj419er) reported

    @vicious696 And we care because? When xbox becomes "consoleless" and becomes a streaming service only I'll only feel bad for you guys and the terrible quality games you'll be getting then.

  • APoxyDubliner Niall 🇮🇪 (@APoxyDubliner) reported

    @piyushut @Nickf2017 @PlayStationUK Many people will pick cheese and food over expensive luxuries such as Sony games. Meanwhile with game pass the best value in gaming you pay a low monthly fee for access to the latest games with over 400+ games on the service. This why many people will switch to Xbox.

  • ZiggyJinn Ziggy Stardust (@ZiggyJinn) reported

    @Chris_Dring @KevynBGrams So where is the Big game problem for that console ? Nintendo has a Big Line-up too Only Xbox fails to have a real line-up

    @disrumpam @Michael29109661 My Sony Bravia 2019 model doesn't play RTV, and always have problems watching RTV on firestick. I have to watch RTV through the XBOX.

    @NikoMueller Game will be fantastic for sure but don’t get your hopes up too crazy. You expect 4K/60 with rt in that game. This won’t be possible. Resolution will be way lower. Not a huge issue but the Xbox fans are always a lot into native res because of the marketing hype.

  • sansom_amy Amy Sansom (@sansom_amy) reported

    @gori11a_warfare Got one of them too but you don't get Horizon FW on xbox. Besides, have you seen the Xbox supprt twitter timeline? Daily messages of "we're aware users can't do/play x at the moment, we're working to fix this"

  • kenneth48468769 kenneth clemons (@kenneth48468769) reported

    @E1uisve_M4GE @1Nine80 @MissDeusGeek No just sounds like poor production quality cuz remember when the Xbox series controllers first came out yeah they had the XYBA issues for the buttons weren't registering presses yeah that's still happens to this day

  • ChuusbangsTM ArupacaK 🧸 | FL!P THAT ✨ (@ChuusbangsTM) reported

    @acetobe It seriously is. This was a huge issue even in technology such as the Kinect for the Xbox.

  • inlovewithgames InloveWithGames (@inlovewithgames) reported

    @laklustre when xbox voice services refuses to work cause of a ******* router setting but every other voice chat service works perfectly

  • 0kingslayer0z ⚜️ Kingslayer⚜️ (@0kingslayer0z) reported

    @agent15373 @Pookac81 Think you got xbox and playstation mixed up, playstation has the worst controllers on the market and has serious stick drift issues and weak springs in the bumpers. Speaking as a person with both consoles the Playstation 5 controllers are dog ****.

    @lexfridman You know what really sucks though? @XboxSupport @BethesdaSupport help i cant login to my fake xbox account, which i will create 30 years from now. I totally need a random bot to comment, telling me to go to a instagram page for help. Money money money lots of money to steal.

  • Valerie38881869 Valerie lee (@Valerie38881869) reported

    @SimGuruNick Also my sims are now taking baths in their CLOTHES. Is this also a bug/glitch maybe from the previous update? Either way it's very annoying as well As the School issue. My playing platform is XBOX ONE. Will these issues be FIXED? Just wondering. Ty for your time.

  • ShaqOatmeal Shaquille Oatmeal (@ShaqOatmeal) reported

    @Main_Valkyrie_2 It’s funny cause all these ponies talking about how AAA titles don’t work on sub services. But don’t released a statement saying it does and they are scared of the 80% market share that Xbox has over the sub service industry. Their own company said it and pony’s are denying it.

    @XboxSupport Hi guys, I am getting a disconnect of my USB Driver every 10 minutes or so for the last couple of days. And today my Controller also started to disconnect every ten minutes or so. Is this a know issue which you looking for alleready?

  • 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)

  • unrelentless_ There is a ♠️ inside me (@unrelentless_) reported

    @DarkViperAU I hope Matt doesn't almost break his monitor over the low fps in water, was a big problem on xbox one but not sure if series X is safe
