    @Xbox are you guys gonna address the system crashing problems

  • BillyHoWCR XBOX & BETHESDA +MIC DROP (@BillyHoWCR) reported

    @So_Kurrupt @XRays_Insider Xbox 360 was successful in spite of the issues. Point being though, we don't know how more successful they could have been without the huge issues at launch. It had its power and great titles at the time to help offset failure rate.

    @XboxKaneda I had that happen a couple times the first day. Was on the dashboard and in the queue, but every crash since then was met with a solid green screen before the crash. Please report it though. I know people @ Xbox are taking this very seriously. Use the Power & Startup option
