    Whats Microsoft doing.

    [quote user="xMENACExFFx"]

    I wouldn't worry about not hearing from MS about certain games. I would worry if they start talking a little too much. From all the reports I've read and heard , all is well with the XO and MS is just going to let the games speak for themselves.
    Last thing they need is more bad PR so, until they find the right person to handle all the PR stuff then it's best to stay mum and give bits of information leading up to the Launch of the XO which in turn will build momentum
    . Sit tight and enjoy the show once the curtains go up because I'm expecting BIG things !!

    [/quote]Better bad PR than no PR in my opinion, aka $ony. I haven't heard didly squat about PlayStation 4 (Off topic, at least where their dash is concerned, advertising their console, etc) since their reveal, but I guess that's
    $ony for ya, always hush hush about PlayStation and least favorite/useful/helpful GUI. At least M$ is making an effort and informing people what's what.

    Hi there TheLeadZombie, I am Lumie and I would love to assist you today.

    I am so sorry you are having issues with a brute force attack.

    Please keep in mind, with two-step verification, you should not have to be concerned too much about the security of your account.

    However it does pose some risk, and can lead to the blocking of your account.

    Thankfully, I have the perfect solution!

    "Go to Add an alias.

    Sign in to your Microsoft account, if prompted. [https://account.live.com/AddAssocId]

    Under Add an alias, do one of the following:

    Create a new Outlook.com email address and add it as an alias.

    Add an existing email address as an alias.

    Select Add alias."

    These steps and more information can be found here: [https://support.microsoft.com/office/459b1989-356d-40fa-a689-8f285b13f1f2]

    Now you can go to this site: [account.live.com/SignInPreferences] and turn off your sign in options for the past alias.

    Your email address will operate completely as normal, but now you must sign in with another email address.

    I hope this helps!

    Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. -Lumie =)

    Whats Microsoft doing.

    I'd say MS has been rather open and Sony has been deflecting questions.

    Whats Microsoft doing.

    I'd like to hear that they have teams working with all their launch partners to help them get a better understanding of how to code to use the ESRAM effectively the way it was designed to be used and coming up with new solutions to developers gripes.
