    xbox bans!

    all heard the news? microsoft has banned all chipped/moddified xbox consoles from loging into xbox live!!!

    reports that they have banned over 800,000 users for having a moddified console, thats about 8% of the xbox live users. microsoft say that users can only access xbox live after they have bought a new console! they have also announced they plan to investigate further, and hope to ban the more advanced mods, mostly the illegal ones. it was all planned and timmed to clash with the mw2 release, and many of those banned users had pirated copies of the game.

    mixed views on this; many say it is far too harsh for microsoft to do this, with out warning, many feel "hard done by" and that games are just too damn expensive to buy at

    honestly i don't care. i mean my friend owns an xbox and it's fun to play once in a while while we're high but i have no plans of ever buying one. when you decide to mod something, flash the bios, or whatever in order to play pirated games. well there's always the risk of having your console banned (one of the many reasons i prefer pc, just let microsoft tryt and ban an entire pc). if you really don't want to risk being banned but don't want to pay 40+$ for a game just pick up an old 360 arcade for 70$ and mod it.

    about writing long articles we can use some more good writers WePlayedCod We, Want you!

    This wasn't really out of the blue. Everyone saw it coming because MW2 was leaked...Microsoft isn't a bunch of dumbasses...they actually read media and have people specifically monitoring media that is about them.

    Nice twisted, i have too bad of a concience to really do anything illegal makes me really feel like shit but ppl will still find a way around this and continue to download games like MW2 and when it comes out COD 7 (hopfully not like the video). I really dont give a crap bout console cause i have a PS2 and prob getting a Wii cause why by an Xbox if there no games i cant play on comp. So i dont take any sides.

    Clap, clap, clap to Microsoft! Finally got the balls to stand up to pirates and torrents!

    One day they will be able to access PC's and stop all internet gaming... One day it will happen, and that will be the day!
