  • MrMistry89 Ru Mistry (@MrMistry89) reported

    @TheRealGamer202 @SnapBlastPLAY Yes it is lol. Theyre not releasing bg3 because of getting splitscreen on xbox to work. The series x isn't the issue clearly. It's the series s.

  • Mirsha Mirsha (@Mirsha) reported

    @HirushanArunda @Saltiest_Gaming And yet, all over Twitter daily, I see fanbois demanding the game to come out on ps5. I had no problem buying a ps5 for Spiderman. But this dude wants to play this game so badly, buy it on Windows pc, steam, xbox,gamepass, and xcloud. It's not that hard. Geez

  • JustBro50408003 Just Browsing (@JustBro50408003) reported

    @Dealer_Gaming I love DF but it's not an Xbox issue right? Game design has been fine on PC for decades with varying degrees of components and power levels. I don't think you could ever say games were hampered or held back by that.

  • Aluminum54 Al¹³ (@Aluminum54) reported

    @Xbox Ahhh, a worthy replacement to my broken 20th anniversary controller. Gonna miss the grips 😢

  • shortysvilla The Cog (@shortysvilla) reported

    @MldGhost @PeterOvo5 LMAO, so if your favorite gaming company pays A LOT of money to have a new game on their service for it's paying crowd but nobody actually plays the game then was it a worthwhile investment? Your reasoning is why Xbox is failing.

  • italianbella_79 Michelle Cope (@italianbella_79) reported

    @FortniteGame ur tellin me ur asses can't get pc players off Fortnite or their own platform??!! Tired of their gd mods!!! Fix the problem!! Or u don't give a **** that pc players can cheat when ps4 Xbox and Nintendo switch can't. Ur BS Fortnite

  • shortysvilla The Cog (@shortysvilla) reported

    @GamingSupanova I had three red rings and then their warranty ran out so they wouldn't trade out another refurb, I had to buy my last 360 out of pocket. By this time the issue had been fixed and that last purchased one still works today. Which is ironic as that's when Xbox died!

  • Rosilelilele RoSi (@Rosilelilele) reported

    @UniDaSensei Time is the issue, xbox is overflowing with games lately

  • EpsilonWasTaken Epsilon (@EpsilonWasTaken) reported

    @FortniteStatus Fix Xbox performance

  • X1Titan John (@X1Titan) reported

    @SendsRS @BattlefieldComm @Battlefield I don't have a problem with the Xbox or PC players but I'm getting hit behind cover and getting bundled damage from PSN players.

  • josemanuel_831 j (@josemanuel_831) reported

    @Xbox I bought a blue one from ebay and the buttons are sticky how do I fix it? @XboxP3

  • TheLunarTears Vince (@TheLunarTears) reported

    @DARKNOVADIGITA1 @ArcSystemWorksU @XboxGamePass I want a physical copy and actually own my games instead renting them from subscription service which is a problem with xbox's community they buy the same games like cod,fifa and GTA5 for shark cards or only subscribe to gamepass and complain about the games that come to it lol

  • sav1986 dan (@sav1986) reported

    @XboxSupport having issues after sending a controller in for repair. No updates showing on screen and unable to speak to a live agent!

  • RussianHennessy Henny 🍾 (@RussianHennessy) reported

    @Xbox Fix the connection issues with your series 2 controllers. I should not be paying $200 for a controller that disconnects itself everytime I play call of duty for literally no reason at all. Not to mention problems with paddle buttons giving out and stick drift

  • zDarkxq zDarkxq (@zDarkxq) reported

    @FortniteStatus Fix fix Xbox fps drops

  • RussianHennessy Henny 🍾 (@RussianHennessy) reported

    @LowlyEidolon @Xbox Possible mismatch battery voltages, I always keep my controller charged. I've had multiple friends who have run into the same problem. I treated my controller like a princess before it started drifting, its probably because I trickshot and use my buttons a lot more than others

  • DAMNYOUCARTER Timothy Carter (@DAMNYOUCARTER) reported

    If there any games that have problems on that console it’s slowly down too being the last platform to optimise in the development cycle. Aka the developers didn’t put much effort into Xbox Series S version.

  • EpsilonWasTaken Epsilon (@EpsilonWasTaken) reported

    @FortniteGame Fix Xbox performance

  • wafeyh UNISOLGR69 🇺🇲🎖️🇺🇲 Universal Soldier (@wafeyh) reported

    @PaulTassi @Forbes Microsoft/Xbox needs to fix a lot of things before even going exclusive with content.

  • tigerbans Stroggs 🇺🇬 (@tigerbans) reported

    @DeadByBHVR I hope we won't have initialization error on xbox like it was with previous update?

  • krayzzfifa lfd ccc 𝙠𝙧𝙖𝙮𝙯𝙯𝙯𝙯𝙯 (@krayzzfifa) reported

    @FortniteStatus don't care bozo fix xbox

  • LukeRipa LukeRipa (@LukeRipa) reported

    @DarkGyraen To be on GP Day 1 Xbox has to pay upfront to cover an estimate of sales. Problem with that, games need continuous income flow as development doesn't stop before 6 months after release at best. It all depends how much they giving on those deals, and if there are residuals.

  • Dirtysweets Diana Rose Sweets. (@Dirtysweets) reported

    You Know, Most People Talk About Growing Up Playing Xbox Or PlayStation. My Uncle Only Ever Had PlayStation And PlayStation 2, And He'd Occasionally Let Us Play On It. But I Always Got The Hand-Me-Down Nintendo's, Including A Broken OG Nintendo. Life Of An Only Child.

  • PoliticalITGame ResidentGamer0 (@PoliticalITGame) reported

    @BCynical_ @AndreaPichinini Dead Space, Ni No Kuni and Guilty Gear are worth playing. Maybe not to you but others deem value in the service. Nobody offers more variety in games than Xbox. If you’re referring to FP that starts next month with Minecraft Legends, followed by Redfall,Starfield,Forza,HB II etc

  • thehivehq HGC🎮 (@thehivehq) reported

    @ConanExiles @ConanExiles when will decay timers on xbox unofficial servers be fixed? They have been broken over a year now

  • vsizann vsi (@vsizann) reported

    @FortniteStatus Fix fps bug on xbox 🤛🏻

  • Darkborn162 Darkborn (@Darkborn162) reported

    @Guttaun The initiative is all the proof we need. That studio was supposed to be the first AAAA studio with high salaries and the best devs in the world, mostly from playstation studios and Rockstar. More than half of them quit before any gameplay was seen. Xbox has a talent problem.
