  • Miketrike8 Mikey@The Trike. (@Miketrike8) reported

    @TheActMan_YT Eh?? I played it with a mate today he on pc me on xbox. No issues for 3 hours today...none zero. Apart from the ******* cheaters.

  • hewhomrefrains He 💥 Whom 💥 Refrains (@hewhomrefrains) reported

    @Biff_Tannon2020 @Grey59Ghost @FMJLullaby Yeah it's only ok to pay millions to keep games off of competing platforms you can't pay billions. Doesn't make any sense. Exclusive or not get ready for Xbox to be the main platform for developers from here on out. Cloud / Game service these will be exclusive.

  • NateHudak Nate Hudak (@NateHudak) reported

    Really tired of not being able to play Xbox 360 games online (or sign in at all) because of bs error codes related to account security and other BS. Can't play on the 360 or the X, but yet X/One games play fine @XboxSupport. Really damn irritating. For weeks now.

  • OperationMemes TheCringeMan69 ඞ (@OperationMemes) reported

    @TakeThisL18 @realRHAssassin @PersonaSpeaks Well it depends on the game it's not neccesseraly an issue with xbox or playstation but they should require more polish from devs before they sold theses games in their platform though.

  • xAnoki Anoki (@xAnoki) reported

    @neruarty @Shpeshal_Nick So you have no problem if all future Bethesda & Acti/Blizz games are Xbox Ecosystem Exclusive? Its the double standard. Sony buys full time exclusivity from a 3rd party and its fine its exclusive. Xbox now owns a dev and its "They better make all games multiplat"

  • BlinkandBreath RVW™® (@BlinkandBreath) reported

    @FortniteGame unable to login on Xbox series X.

  • tdouble_DD tdoubleD (@tdouble_DD) reported

    @OfficialXboxU Your upset that it might be a ps5 exclusive but have no problem with the thought of Microsoft buying Capcom to make it a Xbox exclusive? Sounds like hypocrisy to me

  • HeyItsRJH Robert J. Hollis (@HeyItsRJH) reported

    @Juanantwiter @Stealth40k Agree. I don't think no one has a problem seeing it come to the Xbox. We're just dumbfounded to see a sequel to a game that didn't come to the West until the 3DS port came to isn't coming the the system where the majority of the JRPG fans are especially in Japan.

  • JamesWi65532826 James Williamson (@JamesWi65532826) reported

    @GamerMom1969 @DyingLightGame Co op not working on your xbox you mean. Works fine on mine. Getting bored of seeing people speaking for everyone else.

  • FableIm Im_Fxyble (@FableIm) reported

    @ZipsJx I think there was a translation error but if you asked if that was Xbox then yes it is, it is very interesting didn't think atlas would ever put a game on Xbox

  • trsrpc TM06 💿 (@trsrpc) reported

    @NoxMadness @elvisofthedead Pro Nier Automata been on Xbox for years, and GamePass for 2 years iirc and less than 15% finished the game on Xbox It's a problem for Xbox gamers simply, JRPGs on Xbox don't preform well, nor does Japanese games, or games made by Japanese devs.

  • Slapwing Mark Evans (@Slapwing) reported

    @FortniteStatus What about the crashing out of game on Xbox one issues? It’s happened to me and my squad members 5-6 times each in the last few days.

  • BFunk_Pierce_ BFunk_Pierce (@BFunk_Pierce_) reported

    @RurikVonElenor @bambielouise Xbox has the same issues.

  • cypheroftyr Cypher is out of spell slots, fin (@cypheroftyr) reported

    @CriticalBard Not with Fork Knife but if you're using a Xbox controller, check for a firmware update? Sounds weird but that's been my issue with a lot of times it just stopped responding.

  • HinsonBrian Brian Hinson (@HinsonBrian) reported

    @Solidrev1 I was under the impression that Xbox discs only contain the Xbox One version... the Series S/X version must download and you stick the disc in to play? So smart delivery issue/bug?

  • KurtChilcott Kurt Chilcott (@KurtChilcott) reported

    @FortniteStatus Xbox One X - my Son still can’t login. 4 days and counting. Why should I spend $$ on v-bucks in the future?

  • tdouble_DD tdoubleD (@tdouble_DD) reported

    @purchase_jack @Final8oss @JezCorden EXACTLY! they were just excited bethesda and activision games like cod and fallout being exclusive to Xbox but it’s a problem when PlayStation starts making games exclusive.

  • Dweebvid David Easton (@Dweebvid) reported

    @rybowden @quiffboy @Xbox Well what do ya know, that does suck and the fact they haven’t went out of their way to offer a revised updated version to lessen this issue

  • alphakid123 ad em (@alphakid123) reported

    @SpartanOfWar01 @TylerMcCarthy_ Hasn't fixed anything on xbox same disconnect after 5mins

  • IanKiwewa REAPER😈 (@IanKiwewa) reported

    @Jerrymuwumuza @deejahn @tentacle001 Playstation 5 facts : over heats , makes alot of noise { that generator like sound} u cant even play at night . Most playstation users are not online gamers . Xbox is just hard for some people to use .so understand when they have issues with xbox .

  • ufallb4me Dee (@ufallb4me) reported

    @Kastrick Yeah, maybe. Too irritated to think about it right now. Never had that problem with Xbox and I've had at least 5 of them. The same thing happened when my old PS3 died. So many good games I left unfinished because of it. You'd think they'd have that fixed by now, lmao

  • SNobusuke Nobusuke (@SNobusuke) reported

    @HBGamer16 If I remember right, Wrath of Cortex got an Xbox release in April 2002. I think. It's interesting to see Crash finally leave single-console-exclusivity.

  • NoxMadness Nox&Madness (@NoxMadness) reported

    @trsrpc @elvisofthedead I don't see problem with Xbox, Phil wants more RPGs and people from MS knows that if they want to get and keep new customers they need to offer more of everything. Right question is why not switch, is it because of traditional (too weak/in some cases too much work for us)

  • SamNX236 Soul Hacker Sam (@SamNX236) reported

    @Mac_The_Don1 @Dchas17 @yusuke8shimoto Crash is no more, now listen to the facts: -KI is an Xbox IP, of course its going to be exclusive -SF shouldn't be exclusive just because PS can't make fighting games -Soul Hackers, the most niche jrpg series, just confirmed the sequel coming to Xbox. -your opinion is invalid

  • SuperShrooms Leon 🍄 (@SuperShrooms) reported

    @Wafl3 @SquareEnix Yeah @SquareEnix what's your problem with Xbox fans?

  • tmatt746 Matt Thompson (@tmatt746) reported

    @Craig___here @actionofcreate If your xbox controller turns off at anypoint while the game is in a running state, it will crash when played. Currently no solution other than wired controller

  • 16_RuizGA Ruiz GA (@16_RuizGA) reported

    @RavenSoftware fix it on xbox to be able to activate the HDR again

  • Dweebvid David Easton (@Dweebvid) reported

    @quiffboy @Xbox Strangely enough my Elite 2 controller has the exact same problem…right bumper completely unresponsive, I just resorted to mapping it to one of the paddles underneath but not really what you expect from their premium controllers, I already had to return another before this too.

  • esearcy1 Edward (@esearcy1) reported

    @WarzoneQG Can you guys fix the crash on Xbox series s I can’t play the game

  • Dweebvid David Easton (@Dweebvid) reported

    @quiffboy @Xbox I am pretty sure the first one I got replaced had the exact same issue so it feels a lot more wide spread kinda like stick drift. Funny thing is the 1st Elite was super reliable so the 2nd hasn’t held up to those standards
