Can Microsoft stop holding back the Series X?!?

FLAKEEEY · Jan 23, 2025

I have been really looking forward to Black Myth Wukong, only to find out today that it's being delayed, but only for the Series X/S. It is pretty obvious that the S has been holding back the X this generation & causing delays, because this is not the first game to get delayed because of its poor hardware. I understand that the S is a budget option, but when you're consistently screwing over your customers/playerbase that spent more money on the X you are doing something majorly wrong! Instead of making better exclusives Microsoft took the bizarre choice to try & beat out Playstation with an inferior console. This entire Xbox generation has been held back by Microsoft forcing Devs to make last gen & S versions of games. No wonder all my friends bought PCs, what even is the point in having an Xbox anymore? We just get constantly spat in our face by Xbox/Microsoft.

The backwards compatibility program is on hold while Microsoft finishes production of the Xbox Series X. Xbox posted on their Twitter account some exciting news about back comp program for the Series X.

The back compatibility programme is on hold (possibly until Series X release) Once it is restarted I'm sure Microsoft will put a request feature into it for games people want.

We can hope

There are no other drives attached to the series x.

The store where system was purchased doesn't have any in stock and I was told by them, due to an agreement with Microsoft, they are unable to hold any xbox devices for costumers.

It would be great if Microsoft could send best buy (in Poughkeepsie, ny) a series x with my name on it to bypass said "no hold" agreement.

I've already done the reset with no luck. I know it's not just me due to others in Reddit reporting similar issue.

When will the Poughkeepsie, NY store get additional series x xboxes? Can one be shipped there with a hold for me?

As a couple of Ambassadors mentioned the back compatible program is on hold until Microsoft officially launched the Series X. But I hope they do make Commandos 2 backwards compatible. It'd be a great title to add to the back compatible catalogue. Happy
gaming!

Hi there. at the moment the teams have stopped all back-compat, until the Series X is released later on in the year.
