Microsoft is certainly pushing the self-destruct button for its latest console, the Xbox One. There have been so many issues with the gaming machine that have been frustrating the many loyal gamers.
The latest is with the region-lock. Just recently, the digital games have been region-locked without any prior warning to the gamers. It came as a surprise to the masses. One player revealed that he tried opening Forza 5 but an error message surfaced instead which quotes, “0x87de07d1”.
Most of the users encountered this issue when they attempted to redeem their digital game codes. It got worse for the users as Microsoft Support revealed that the company cannot do anything about it and those affected have to return to the shops and exchange their redeem codes.
In the age of digital gaming, it is a wonder if region lock is still relevant. Why is there such a need for the feature in the first place? Share us you thoughts on the matter.
