Sky Player Xbox 360 Problems

TalkXbox reports: "Well, this is certainly not what Microsoft and Sky hoped for on their Sky Player debut for the Xbox 360. We have received numerous reports from our readers that they are not able to access the service after downloading the Sky Player. We tried it ourselves and received the following error: "Can't connect to the SKY Player Service. Error codes: 0C01/8009/0304"....

Lol, at least they don't suck at console launches.

N4G king6032d ago (Edited 6032d ago )

3 red lights blinking
and they all were like "is that okay ??"

@chrisulloa

You do know the PS3 is third fastest console sold of all time right ? So it sold more than the 360 in its launch, though you should know that.

chrisulloa6032d ago

Um 360 sold 6 million on their 2006 launch, Sony only sold like 100k on their launch with only 8 games available.

xTruthx6031d ago

@chrisulloa

The TalkXbox news post has been updated. A MS rep has confirmed that Sky are aware of the technical issues and are working on resolving them.

In other words, the PS3 beta is seeing problems on the 360. Nothing new here.

N4G king6032d ago

@1.2
yah im sure they'll fix it before it comes to the PS3
because you know all beta versions got problems

TotalPS3Fanboy6032d ago

Don't tell me 360 gamers are beta-testing Sky Player for the PS3 again...

Actually, it is a problem with Sky's servers, nothing to do with Xbox 360.

dkblackhawk6032d ago

But the problem COULD be on the Xbox 360 side to, you just don't know it yet.

Bereaver6032d ago

I would completely agree if you were getting Sky on the computer, but it's ON the 360, so I think it is in fact, relating to the 360. Regardless if this is an MS issue or not, it still effects and hampers the 360's ability. *cough* moron *cough*

Cueil6032d ago

Don't be an jerk... it's obviously a server side issue since you have to connect to Xbox Live to get to the SKY service

Bereaver6032d ago

Don't be a Jerk, it's not like all of Microsoft's systems runs on a single server.

But yeah, it's not a 360 "hardware" issue, if that's what you mean.

You might want to rephrase your comment.

PlayStation X6032d ago

look at all of you trying to not blame it on 360 lol

its microsofts sh1tty coding, nothing to do with the servers.

Golfcoachh6032d ago

No. Really? Not on N4G. I can't believe it.

Shang-Long6032d ago

sky servers are the biggest laugh out there,i use virgin hd which gives you all the channels of sky which you can record, rewind.even shows you missed hours or days ago you can watch them with the catch up feature in an instant.streaming shows from the internet is old tech couple that with sky,s use less servers and youv,e got this.sky player is so slow its laughable.

PlayStation X6032d ago

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde11d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy12d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12511d ago (Edited 11d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
