    What is the deal with the Xbox One?


    I've been a loyal Xbox Live Gold member since launch date. Things have been fine. I have however recently invested over $1000 dollars in the last 6 months or so on a system that can only be easily summed up as a box of flaws. The Kinect is great, the
    looks is wonderful. However, it would be fantastic if things WORKED. I'm at the last straw of defending the Xbox name as a gaming system. I'll likely never let it go as I'm an entertainment junkie, and it helps with several of my needs, sans the lack of
    streaming .avi playback support, which, come on, should be a lay-up. Microsoft needs to seriously get it together and admit their failures or derive resolutions.

    What am I even upset about? Not too much. I'm a really patient, understanding individual that works in the technical support industry. I know problems. But when you sit down on your day off, actually with the time you wish you could be spending with
    a loved one or somewhere else but the situations are against the odds, to try and PLAY A GAME of all things, then spend half an hour of server errors/matchmaking disputes (Do we blame EA or Microsoft for partnering with an inadequate provider? FIFA 14 primarily,
    but the problem obviously reaches into other games) just to finally find someone, and then your interface EXITS OUT TO THE HOME SCREEN, I would feel just in claiming Microsoft responsible for my, or anyone else's, TV replacement when you throw your controller
    at the screen out of primal rage. $1000 dollars. To waste time. UPDATES are only going to go so far at this point. We need an overhaul, or some of what people in my line of work like to call ACCOUNTABILITY, for what's going on. I have dealt with the issue
    of apps/games just abruptly intrude your sense of well-being, and close out. I know this isn't just my console, and if there is ever an "update" that fixes this problem of what might just be lack of system resources, I will be appalled.

    When the problems began near the purchase of the console, I started with a system reset. Not a power reset, I ran the system's software setup again. The problems shortly started yet again. "Hard resets" a.k.a. POWERING OFF THE SYSTEM and turning it back
    on in an advanced way that shouldn't be an option. It should work, one way, and only one way. Whatever. Anyhow, YES, I have "correctly" reset the system, moved it around to different locations even... These issues are happening globally, and it's crap.
    Again. Accountability. That shouldn't be too hard to ask for, and anyone that isn't in complete agreement with me, hasn't had to work for anything a day in their life.

    Going through the forums, just, wow. So many issues, so many pages of problems... No resolutions or accountability. Getting embarrassing. Oh your game isn't reading? Try powering your system off and on in a manner that any person in their right mind would
    find ridiculous after spending $500 dollars on a system. Yeah, totally cool. Lmao... c'mon guys, give me a reason to resuscitate myself back into the life of the X and not loathe turning the console on every day.
