How is this company still existing?

Yeah so over the holidays i thought i could buy a game in xbox game store the easy way because as a apple customer i am used to things simply working. Since an hour i am desperately trying to buy jedi fallen order and i am facing several issues. In the meanwhile i managed to not being auto-redirected to the US version of the game which i cannot purchase becaus i cant't select the country i'm living in. But then Microsoft surprises me with another cunning trick from keeping me away of spending money on their products. Even though i am logged in with my xbox-account (which failed three times in a row), microsoft wants me to log in with my live-account and verify it by sending an SMS that never arrives because obviously they have a mess with replacing local phone numbers with country codes, which all other websites manage to achieve.

Now i replaced the phone number with a second e-mail adress which surprisingly worked, but when I went back to buying the game Microsoft tells me that ssince i updated my security information today this will be activated IN A MONTH!!!!!!!!!

I'd be really glad if i could play this game today, any ideas?

I understand how you feel. Unfortunately, that’s how the system is designed. After a change to the security information, you can’t do anything until after 30 days.

Used games sales have been around for years, yet gaming still exists that guy is clearly talking out his a$$ as are these companies.

I don't quite understand what you mean. Xbox and Microsoft are companies that exist and should be around for a long time.

there used to be an archive of it ... not sure how to retrieve it or if it still exists.

i do think those game companies that still exist will make their arcade titles compatable with the new console.I cant believe Microsoft would throw away this huge library of arcade games and start with basically nothing.
