    Why Can't I Browse All Games Anymore In The Store???


    Who in their right mind thought it would be a good idea to prevent people from being able to browse the entire games catalog, and only display games that are from the last couple of months?

    For some reason I can no longer browse through the entire catalog of downloadable games. I used to be able to go to new games, and see every game available for Xbox One sorted by release date. It now only displays games released in the last couple of months,
    so if a game is older than that there is no way to discover it unless you are searching for a specific game.

    Is Xbox really saying that games older than a couple of months aren't worth being able to find without a specific search?? I click on the all games link on the main page in the store, and it brings me to the same place where I can only see the newest games
    for the last couple of months. Why have and All Games tab that doesn't show all games. I tried browsing on my Windows 10 PC instead, and it displays the same exact options.

    There is no option to browse through all of the games, not even with a simple a-z option. I find this baffling. It is insulting to developers, and is a sure fire way to bring less money into the ecosystem. How can people buy a game if they can't even find
    it? There should always be a way to view the entire catalog by release date. The first game I see should be the newest going all the way back to the first game ever released for the system. Before this last major system update, I used to be able to do just
    that, and its disappointing that now I can't.

    Please fix this, so that when I click on the all games tab it shows me ALL GAMES. They should be sorted by newest release, not only displaying the newest releases. Any update to the store should make games easier to browse and find, not harder. Developers
    should be outraged, and if they notice sales starting to disappear after a couple of months its because people can no longer see their games at all. Please let this issue be corrected, because as everything else on xbox moves forward, it seems the store keeps
    taking two steps backwards. You would think the place where customers actually spend their money should be the last place things are confusing and aggravating. The store should be the most pleasant and easiest place to be on xbox, considering that is where
    money is made and spent.

    :)

    WHY DOESN'T YOUTUBE WORK IN THE BROWSER ANYMORE ?!?!?!

    Alright, the Youtube website use to work painlessly in the Microsoft Edge browser. Then all of a sudden a few months back it just magically stopped working and it hasn't worked since. Other videos still work in the Edge browser, just go to a different website
    that plays videos to see for yourself.

    This forces xbox one users to exit the browser and load up the Youtube app ... Yup, the piece of garbage Youtube app that hasn't been updated in the slightest since about 2007, and is widely despised & avoided by the masses, and which is also down right
    now by the way.

    What is going on with this? What is the point of purposely shutting down access to a website, only to then force us to reroute through the horrendously pathetic Youtube app? It honestly doesn't get much dumber than that.

    I am also dumbfounded at this. I just bought a Xbox One S switched from PS4 and I CAN'T EVEN BROWSE THE ENTIRE GAME LIBRARY, NOT EVEN BROWSE BY GENRE. How is someone like me supposed to find games to buy? Sony's PS4 Store could do all this since day 1. This
    is not a good first impression for Xbox.

    Changes from one system to the other are not always comfortable yet with time you get the hang of it. As mentioned above if you have ideas you want to share with the rest of community just open a post in the xbox feedback site.

    How do I access the movie trailers in Xbox Video again?

    Okay, thanks for answering.

    But I can't imagine why you removed it though.

    I browsed around that section all the time, so I probably won't bother checking out Xbox Videos much anymore if that section is no longer there.

    Browse for content to install from the library in the Microsoft Store app or by browsing the store. If you can't find it or can't install it, I recommend contacting game support.
