Ah that's why I thought you had already received your box when I got mine It showed you (or whoever that other person is) playing WoW (and they keep playing WoW all the time, like ALL.. THE..TIME)

BTW, how horrendous is the xbox UI and the software (including the app) in general. I mean I used to think PS was just about average and thought that they are primarily a HW company, probably that being the reason. But after seeing the stuff that xbox is putting out, even being a core software company, God!

What's wrong. Everything is fine.

lol. I had the same issue. f**kers added 608 to the end of the gamertag I wanted and since it was in gray color, I thought it wouldn't show up and it will only be for some internal indexing. Turned out, I was wrong. Now they want cash to change. I might end up paying though   

 

Exactly how I got fooled as well.

That guy refused to come topless on a zoom call. That's when I realised "wrong quixote"

It feels so cluttered everywhere. Also when you click on your gamertag/profile icon at top, it opens up a window and then a pop up on top of that window The App is quite forgetful as well. Half the time it doesnt show me the games installed on the box. And they have a gamepass app and an xbox app :|. There are several other quirks which I am too lazy to write down.

I just checked my GT..Its still intact. Yeah, its kinda weird GT, made it more than a decade back but i would like it that way instead of some number added to it.

I think this kind of username XxX....XxX with varying amounts and case of "x" was made popular by xbox (and maybe halo multiplayer?) or something. I see most of the people from xbox world with this kind of id.

So far the only thing that annoys me is when the wife signs in with her controller, the UI still boots into mine. So much for the assignment

Pretty much all the navigations are unnecessarily padded with multiple steps.

The ps app is miles better than xbox app. Same with UI. Like I can go on the app or console and go to any friend's profile and see what games they play, trophies they've won etc. Its so hard to do on Xbox. 

 

Why stalk random innocent men?

+1 to this.... coming from the PS4 UI , the Xbox UI requires unnecessary steps to do anything.

I thought @quixote_1989 already got his XSX (and he was lying) or playing on X1.

At least managed to upload the custom profile pic after a fair amount of struggle, phew.
