    @MicrosoftHelps Hi, I have a faulty Xbox elite series 2 controller. I saw that there are known issues and the warranty has been extended. Can you please advise how I claim for a repair / replacement? Thanks

  • DarthKrygus ALL ELITE Sith Lord (@DarthKrygus) reported

    Welp my Xbox One might have finally kicked the bucket, got the "Black Screen of Death". Currently trying to fix it but at least I'll finally have time to play those Switch and PS4 games just sitting on my shelf. Hey @Xbox can I have a free Xbox Series X, I already miss my Xbox 😭

  • scorchedtulips scorchedtulips🍬(Rosi ♡) (@scorchedtulips) reported

    UHHHH I JUST FIGURED OUT HOW TO STREAM STEAM GAMES TO MY XBOX AND PLAY ON MY TV AND ITS CRISP AS HELL TESTING WITH SADX TO SEE HOW INPUT LAG FEELS

  • AnothrBrokeGeek Another Broke Geek (@AnothrBrokeGeek) reported

    @SpawnWaveMedia I've never owned an Xbox and I think it's a fantastic deal. If my laptop was a bit better I would have got it there. The fanboys are just bitter they don't have it. If they ever do get a similar service, they'll praise it like it's the second coming of Christ, as they always do

  • Dinzanel ً (@Dinzanel) reported

    @madzgamingpl If there's a videogame service out there that needs promotion is definitely not Xbox Game Pass, with over 100 games for you to enjoy and many more coming even on day one. Try your first 3 months for only $ 1.00 Jump in.

  • xiaomingshi8881 xiaoming shi (@xiaomingshi8881) reported

    @AustinShott1 @sadisadra @Xbox Wdym? I also respect the fact you like Xbox exclusives, but I think they are garbage. The only service I like is XGP. XGP has tons of non-exclusives games, but PS has way better exclusives games. They don’t just look pretty, they are fun games.

  • MarcSyxx78 barnsey_army (@MarcSyxx78) reported

    @UbisoftSupport hi there appears to be an issue with the breakpoint servers in England we were playing a game but it kicked us out still on Xbox live everything else is fine but yeah both can’t log into breakpoint

  • SomeAmericanX Some american (@SomeAmericanX) reported

    @Xbox @XboxSupport Having issues with minecraft on xbox .. downloading the game.. finally happened. downloading content packs is not working right.

  • saruboss0812 saruboss (@saruboss0812) reported

    @DoesItPlay1 If thats the case shouldn't u also be against ps now, ps plus , xbox gwg? I get many people don't like renting games, but gamepass isn't the first rental service.

  • Linz08B Linz (@Linz08B) reported

    @crowretro @DoesItPlay1 @SpawnWaveMedia Except you also have physical option? It's not as of GP was the only resource Xbox was giving. I would understand if they stopped selling games and could only be accessed through GP but that's not the case, and judging the service rn by a hypothetical future is beyond stupid

  • BruhTate Tate 🪐 (@BruhTate) reported

    @alizzypriv Can’t gotta fix my pc and my Xbox is ****

  • randytpandy Randy Taylor (@randytpandy) reported

    @Kamateros_Tweet @SpawnWaveMedia I mean Xbox puts out all of their new games on the service like literally say one

  • Pro_rockNturtle rockNturtle (@Pro_rockNturtle) reported

    @SpawnWaveMedia I fall in the minority. I rather just pay the $60/yr for gold than $45/3 months & I have little to no interest in the games on the service. I only have halo/forza on xbox and as a PC owner also I'll just be playing them on PC and rather pay the $60 per game than the alternative

  • Gian_Cele Il licantropo (@Gian_Cele) reported

    @JustAnLED @TruGiffers @Puertorock77_ #Gamepass will implode on itself very quickly. Microsoft knows this well and is trying to make the service on PC become "mandatory", because on consoles it is already dead being limited only to the niche platform #Xbox.

  • ShaunV2 Shaun (@ShaunV2) reported

    @pr0ztv @RicardoG1981 @scarlet_nexus I play it on Xbox One X and don't see that at all, probably a PS5 issue.

  • Pettahe Petter Henriksson (@Pettahe) reported

    @CRYPT0N1TE @XboxGamePass @Xbox I can vouch for awful frame drops and latency spikes. There's nothing wrong with my Internet connection. I'm using fiber, 5GHz for my phone and my latency to the servers in the capital is around 5ms, and yet there are apparent streaming issues that makes it off-putting.

  • MohamedFMustaf2 Mohamed F Mustafa (@MohamedFMustaf2) reported

    @NextGenPlayer @Vistrix Never say never. Remember the video game crash. I see where your coming from. But there are people who complaining about paying for first party games and saying the xbox game pass is the only winning model. Game subscription ********** is a threat to the industry.

  • NaterStephanie StephanieHatesMinorities (@NaterStephanie) reported

    A my mom came to fix my xbox 720 yesterday

  • bpriddy Britt Priddy Jr (@bpriddy) reported

    @UbisoftSupport Hello, when will the issue not being able to connect on Xbox with Ghost Recon Breakpoint? Was kicked out with a Mountain error code about 25 minutes ago. Thx!

  • JBurtoft Jon Burtoft (@JBurtoft) reported

    @SpawnWaveMedia I've tried it twice on pc and the app is a mess and causes lots of issues like failing to start/download games. Xbox might fare better but the pc app needs a complete overhaul.

  • Chaoticle Chaoticle (@Chaoticle) reported

    @cooldog542 @WormsTeam17 @Xbox I think there are still connection issues (what's pretty annoying, if you think about it's out on other platform like a year). Can play full Games for hours, next moment can't find games.

  • RyangoFett_24 RyangoFett_24 (@RyangoFett_24) reported

    Why are people praising and bashing Xbox Games Pass so much? It's another Subscription service like Disney+. You don't see anyone praising or bashing it. Y'all need to chill

  • JimmyRowe1994 Jimmy Rowe (@JimmyRowe1994) reported

    Looking like I’m going to have to return my Xbox wireless headset. Not only does it have audio sync issues (differs with games but usually a noticeable 0.5-1 second delay) but it’s also refusing to charge above 50%. Great.

  • 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)

  • iCave_Dave iCaveDave - David Eden-Sangwell (@iCave_Dave) reported

    @Microsoft Is your service and returns site broken? Regardless of what I do I can’t seem to get to the end of getting a 2 month old Xbox controller with a thumbstick hanging off fixed?

  • Biggnate2 Biggnate (@Biggnate2) reported

    @ShrawanDarshan1 @UbisoftSupport im having the exact problem too. i downloaded the game after playing on my xbox now on pc. and im having connectivity issues

  • Jewario2 lasagna cat (@Jewario2) reported

    just lost so much progress in yakuza 4 since my xbox decided to disconnect from the internet why can't the gamepass function without it
