    I'm no longer a gamer thanks to Microsoft! And I'm going to tell everyone why


    Microsoft has broken the Windows drivers Logitech wants you to use to use the f710 controller. There are no other drivers provided by Logitech for the f710. So xinput games wont work with this controller. Your better off using a steam controller. It doesn't
    use the broken xinput api and will work with your games regardless. I've contacted both Microsoft and Logitech and neither is interested in even listening to the problem. Microsoft wont even listen to the problem until you pay for a support contract. If your
    really smart, you'll avoid pc gaming like the plague. The reason there are gaming consoles is because of the weakness of pc gaming and exactly what I'm about to tell you:

    Here is what happened:

    For a year I have been LOVING my new Windows 8.1 gaming pc. Reluctantly, I purchased a Logitech f710 controller because I've had problems with controllers in the past with other gaming pcs. But to my surprise, the controller makes it like gaming on a console,
    plug the controller in, open up game, controls just work. All is awesome for a year. Last month, around the beginning of November I go to play AC3 and the right stick (camera) is now in the triggers. The A button was functioning on the X button. Attack was
    the start button. The control scheme was completely broken. The only thing that ever changed on that dedicated Windows 8.1 gaming pc was the Windows updates. No other games added and no other hardware introduced. I freak out and check other games. Bf4, Saints
    Row 4 and AC3 all suffer from the same problem. Virtually all my games (and from different manufactures) now suffer this condition. So begrudgingly, I start to contact Logitech and MS. Logitech didn't want to acknowledge the problem and wrote me off, eventually
    ignoring my emails. MS wont listen unless you buy a support contract. I should have to pay for support of something they broke? If I didn't break it I cant fix it MS. This is your responsibility. So because of the ingenious moves of these 2 companies, I'm
    leaving gaming. I also wont be buying games or consoles for my kids. This from a gamer that's been buying games and consoles since the Atari 2600. I've owned virtually every system ever made and have bought thousands of games. I chose XBOX over Playstation
    from the first xbox and have owned all the xboxes, even after my first one caught fire, and the 360 gave me the RROD. I've been so loyal, and this is how I'm treated? I was going to get my kids into gaming but now I will not. Maybe Ill consider Playstation
    again instead of Xbone. If MS or Logitech remove this post, don't worry Ill have this info on every site i can find, and you'll know they removed it from their sites. Way to go guys!

    :)

    Which Arcade Game Should I Get?

    I'm going to be purchasing 800 Microsoft Points soon and I just wanted to know what Arcade game I should get. I'm planning on getting Black Night Sword or The Walking Dead but I have no idea which one is better.

    Also if there are other fun Arcade Games out there that are 800 Microsoft Points please tell me what they are.

    Thanks!

    Xbox what went through your heads when you made the rep system?

    Auswulf,

    A mate told me Microsoft performed a Rep Reset but why?

    Now I'm not saying either way but does that tell us there's a problem because surely Microsoft are not going to reset the Rep of a gamer that actually deserved their bad status if you get my meaning.
