Ah! You're the second person to report this issue. I wonder what is in common with the two of you... can you email me at michaeltl88@gmail.com and we can try to figure it out from there?
With C-Robin the issue turned out to be that there were multiple controllers plugged in and the game got confused where input was coming from. Try disconnecting all controllers other than the one you want to play with, including wireless and wired controllers (and dongles). If it still does not work try removing all other USB devices and try again. Please restart your Xbox and try again if any of the above does not work the first try :)
