HotCakeX It's been 3 years, and Xbox Console Companion is finally truly being retired. Sadly, till this moment, the clubs, clips sharing, full-fledged community and bunch of other important features are still missing from the new app.

Yeah, i heard Microsoft is working on a new web version that offers screenshots and videos to be viewed online just like Steam profiles, if that's true it'll be very good!
