  • cah_pahk Soy Sauce (@cah_pahk) reported

    @tech_gaming I assumed it was licensing issues. Especially on Xbox games where whoever owns some of these IPs from 15-20 years ago can be pretty vague.

  • ChainKi11 Papa Chxde (@ChainKi11) reported

    @DeadByBHVR since this new year five update constant consistent 3 second lag delay every time the killer swings never happened before this update and i play on ps and my friend plays in xbox and had the same issue

  • totodeafrica Jason-B.E (@totodeafrica) reported

    @Shadow_warcom @ModernWarzone Damn, I got a similar problem, I cant play verdansk cause whenever I want to play it, at the moment it starts loading it takes me to the main screen of my Xbox, otherwise rebirth its going on normal as usual.

  • NoPoke Ian Fotheringham (@NoPoke) reported

    @mattstratford @Xbox 15W not 0.15kW (150W). There is a hidden issue with low power standby modes. The power factor is often dire so the 30X difference may be reduced as far as the grid is concerned. Unfortunately it is the 0.5W that is likely to be elevated by poor power factor.

  • BUSHBINT BUSHPIG (@BUSHBINT) reported

    @XboxSupport Over 4 hours and you cannot fix this issue??

    @XboxSupport Any game I try to play says "The person who bought this needs to sign in". Please Help.

  • ReconFX Amir Nawaz (@ReconFX) reported

    The problem is, it's almost impossible for ppl to figure out how to disable this when Windows Xbox GamePass PC auto-syncs ur old settings even if u reset them. So u have launch the game, turn off internet fast and then set the correct video settings and voila!

  • isaacdacostaa Isaac (@isaacdacostaa) reported

    Anyone else having #xbox issues? It’s telling me “the person who bought this needs to be signed in”

  • JJJJ57631771 JJ (@JJJJ57631771) reported

    @Xbox Netflix is looking into starting their own Game pass subscription service and you can buy and rent video games on day one of release. The future is a digital store were you can subscribe to a service or buy and rent movies TV shows music and games. good competition for consumers

  • Spacegamblerjr spacegamblerjr (@Spacegamblerjr) reported

    @Xbox_Series_XS @TNormal02 @iamalitayyeb Xbox was willing to let the halo master cheif collection go to Playstation but Playstation turned it down and now that bungie isn't making halo any more halos in trouble. You keep dreaming Spiderman is coming to xbox and hey if I wasted my my money xbox s/x I'd be dreaming also.

  • Sahil41067060 Sahil (@Sahil41067060) reported

    @2paclypsenow @phiterf @corybarlog You have 2 ways here. If it's possible get a pc as you can get many free games then. Or else get a service rathere than a game(like Xbox Game Pass or PS Now). Just a suggestion.

  • L0u13__ pizza time (@L0u13__) reported
