  • BorisABQ_NM BorisABQ (@BorisABQ_NM) reported

    @XboxSupport Got an Series X and all it does is making trouble. Can’t start Halo without three or four times going back to Home Screen. Can’t lock into my account because my password is not recognized. I am tempted to return it and wait for a PlayStation 5

  • GalacticPizaGod Justin Bankosh (@GalacticPizaGod) reported

    @dylan_barsum_1 @LushYusha @WarThunder i have a ps5 and i have no problem so maybe it’s on the xbox idk i’ve been playing a lot and haven’t got one frame drop but idk maybe i’m getting lucky

  • Big_Angry_Dad82 Elden Martin (@Big_Angry_Dad82) reported

    Xbox has your Oris, Grounded, Deaths Door and Tunic that cover that base as well as the big AAA but most of those games also have service features to them that makes money outside Game Pass aswell. They'll have the single player only too but those will be funded by the services.

  • SnoWKing93 CJ (@SnoWKing93) reported

    @PlayApex Fix your audio it's broken on next gen upgrade on xbox series x

  • WickedGame69 Wicked James (@WickedGame69) reported

    @getonthestiix Considering the user base size, I'm shocked by NSO's low numbers Same with PS+ Game Pass is also the only service on that list that does what it does And Xbox Live Gold still exists... But ain't nobody care anyway. It's all corporate concern.

  • RebelDoctor2 Rebel Doctor (@RebelDoctor2) reported

    @Noka001 @PrestigeIsKey 99 percent sure MW3 will not be on there due to Xbox deal and when Xbox deal goes through it will be taken off the service. Sorry mate

  • GRIMMYRAX 𝕬𝔍 🥀 (@GRIMMYRAX) reported

    @getonthestiix I’m still in shock that Nintendo Switch Online has more subscribers than Xbox Game Pass. It’s a younger service and hasn’t had any deals that are as cheap or as common as the $1 voucher Game Pass deals. As for PlayStation, I want to see how they’ll maintain their lead.

  • twicethetoots Mr Flatulence (@twicethetoots) reported

    @JAAY_ROCK_ Yet xbox studios had the highest quality of titles ever reviewed in 2021. Where did we lose quality in our subscription service again? That's pillow talk from JR. The sweet nothings whispered in your ear right before you get f*cked

  • Michael_Mu_ 慕昕朋 (@Michael_Mu_) reported

    @PlayWonderlands xbox can’t connect to PlayStation and PC,when will you fix it

  • StaticZWarZ SW (@StaticZWarZ) reported

    @gemzei My Xbox would get confiscated if i got in trouble at school. Oh and i’d have to watch whatever their watching on the TV till bedtime.

  • BUTTERBEAN2019 BUTTERBEAN2019 (@BUTTERBEAN2019) reported

    @zachdonegan I have like started a exhibition match and have the game crash on Xbox series X

  • Jasonl_eeDean Jay Surage (@Jasonl_eeDean) reported

    @Kareous_ @askparamount Its terrible. They need to update to dolby atmos on the xbox app. Thats the issue

  • lukeiplier1 lukeiplier (@lukeiplier1) reported

    @Xbox @PlayApex Hey Microsoft just letting you know Titanfall 2 is waaaaay better maybe buy EA and fix the servers so people can play the best shooter of all time again

  • sharmake25 SomalianGamer (@sharmake25) reported

    @Acepokeboy @theRealJayDub2 Again this is not the paid service my brother. This is xbox live accounts which are required on everything to do with xbox games. Try downloading a free game on windows store and you will see what i mean. This is a stupid argument you are trying to make when we want GOLD numbers.

  • GreenAlienDB Dexter Bravo (@GreenAlienDB) reported

    @OGG1993 Blockbuster started it. There is nothing wrong with game rentals for people who don't continuously play the same game. Xbox has expanded their service across multiple platforms they make enough money off Gamepass to produce high quality games. It's on the developers to deliver.

  • RebelDoctor2 Rebel Doctor (@RebelDoctor2) reported

    @Pattycake1997 @GreysonW98 @dougdagnabbit Backwards compatibility should be free on PlayStation like it is on Xbox it's a shame it's a paid service now and U can't even put in Ur disk that U own to play the game

  • FeelsConsoleMan Angel (@FeelsConsoleMan) reported

    @RadiantScone @Xbox Same issue as me. Still says pending after 2 weeks.

  • JVBetaPhotos JVB (@JVBetaPhotos) reported

    @RomeGoLARGE The PlayStation exclusives available on that service can’t be beat. Xbox doesn’t have the history and games that equal such quality.

  • MarcoTruesilver Christopher Cook (@MarcoTruesilver) reported

    @iamalitayyeb Here I'll fix for you; No Day 1 / Day 1 $17.99 / Month / $15 / Month 400+ Sony Titles (PS4+PS5) / 400+ Games (X360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S) Market Discount / Market Discount (10%, including DLC) No PC Games / PC Games included Limited Streaming / Full Streaming Support...

  • GreenAlienDB Dexter Bravo (@GreenAlienDB) reported

    @infrarogue89 Anyone supporting Playstation's top tier PS+ better not talk down on Gamepass anymore. You are not getting anything better you are getting an alternative to a similar service that xbox offers.

  • ralph46158519 ralph (@ralph46158519) reported

    @MiKAuditore @fabregaspastore @xMBGx xbox don’t have content thats why they’re buying so much. Sony have enough ip’s to have a day and date service if they wanted to go that route

  • AssassinedW ASSASSINED WOLF (@AssassinedW) reported

    @OfficialXboxU And I'm honestly at a loss for words for everyone defending the service with eh main point of "We get demos while Xbox gets trash filler games" bruh I'll have you know Dodge Ball Academia is anything but filler. **** rips.

  • DarkAreTheDays1 Dark Are The Days (@DarkAreTheDays1) reported

    @CrazyCliff_ @LeGavoIsHere For year's PS fans wanted backward capabilities similar to Xbox and now it stuck behind a paywall. I haven't paid a single penny for my Xbox live service's in long time. Sony related services that an entirely different story.

  • mjarbo Matt Jarbo (@mjarbo) reported

    @TizzyisTizzy @VHS_Archive @Andywarski I do like PlayStation exclusives, but not having them on the service that cost more than Xbox games pass is ridiculous

  • Nathan_Drake_1 Master chief (@Nathan_Drake_1) reported

    @CrispsShot @OrigiGreatness a 20 hour SP game is literally wasted on a service IMO so keep them off that but all the MP games put them on + like Xbox advertise the service on your damn shows and not just random videos and blogs.

  • JabrilWilliams1 Jabril Ishmael (@JabrilWilliams1) reported

    @JFonzerrelli @BRAP_Podcast That's mostly fanboys that I see, just like Xbox fanboys act like they couldnt try new genres b4 gp. Overall I'm fine w both services but I do think Sony should add smaller 1st party, gaas games like MLB and GT7 to the service as well as continuously expand the classic library

  • TroJanXIII Tro (@TroJanXIII) reported

    @ZachNicholl @__stats_ @shrugtal xbox issue. not an apex issue.

  • coatesAjonathan Jonny (@coatesAjonathan) reported

    @TornBanner hey do you know that on Xbox your party system is completely broken? I’m in a group with my friend and it lets us play 1 game, then doesn’t take him through to the second game… ever. Please fix this

  • madstreetsgame Mad Streets (@madstreetsgame) reported

    @OmegaPlatinum Yup the fix is going through xbox and googles certification right now.

  • SuperJulz7 SuperJulz7 | #NorthJulz (@SuperJulz7) reported

    @ArtsyXVI What I did to fix mine tho is go into your Xbox settings and turn on Mono Output for your audio
