1 million Xbox Live Accounts Banned - console
(hx) 10:39 AM CET - Nov,12 2009 - Post a comment / read (7)
According to InformationWeek, Microsoft has banned up to 1 million accounts it believes belong to players who were using modified Xbox 360 consoles to play pirated games. Consoles banned from Xbox Live will still function if games are played offline, but players booted from the Xbox Live service will not be able to sign into their accounts or engage other players over the Internet. In addition, Microsoft spokesperson issued the following statement:
While we don't comment on specific numbers, we have taken action against consoles that have been modified and were used to play pirated game discs. In line with our commitment to combat piracy, and support safer and more secure gameplay for the more than 20 million members of our Xbox LIVE community, we are banning these modded consoles from Xbox LIVE.

Just in time for Christmas eh :D

I guess Microsuck are hoping for an xmas bonus this year from lots of old customers coming back for the same shit or will they, mind you'd have to be pretty brain dead to pay to play that game you bought when its mostly shitty match making p2p hosted crap.

Oh well those poor pirates(actually turns out many of them aren't even pirates, they just got screwed by MS for some of the most pathetic reasons ever), but think of it this way, MS may have just saved you from having to send your xbox in for repair after it bricks itself :D

Here is hoping 1million dump Microsuck instead, they may have profited short term, long term *poof*

Nah, this is egg box customers remember. You can ban them, prosecute them, flog them crap RROD hardware and charge them for MP. But sure as the sun rises in the morning, they'll ALWAYS buy an M$ product, be it another egg box? whatever, loyal for always lol. Couldn't see the 'other' side if you pulled their eyeballs out and threw them at another console!!

Besides, if you get your console chipped and you couldn't work out that the 'obvious' was going to happen -ie it being connected to Bill Gates livingroom server and his minions are monitoring what buttons your pressing- then what exactly do you expect from them, inteligence?

Remember, idiots get banned -there's a clue....

That's great news for the bandwidth of legal gamers.

Or 1millon less of guys to play with...
It means that Microsoft is sniffing into your room to see if you changed your XBOX hard/rom. Do you agree with this?

I wandering to know what do you think, if someday you have an evangelist government in your "free" country, and they decided to investigate if you are viewing a porn movie in your DVD player...

Ozieo> That's great news for the bandwidth of legal gamers.

.. bandwidth for legal gamers? lol wtf are you on?! people have to pay to use main xbox live, the fucking bandwidth MS is giving out to support its crap platform and live subscribers is pretty insignificant to the amount they get in from subscriptions for it. Unless you mean xbox live is a slow pile of shit aswel? and that by kicking 1million live users might help speed things up for you lol.

And anyone of these 'pirates' who has spent money on worthless crap that is tide to their live profile like games etc has just had that stolen and taken away, which is not the same as being banned, but still being able to use what you had originally paid for! two wrongs do not make a right.

From what I'm hearing I wouldn't be surprised if MS gets in the shit for this one. Replacing shit components like dvd,hdd with better ones at better prices instead of having to buy the jacked up official ones and sending your xbrick out to get an official replacement, and so not supporting MS rip off hardware will also get you banned as has happened, that is a monopoly at work.

I think these 1million users who will give MS the finger and go elsewhere, MS really have shot themselves in the foot, they out of every company know just how well 'piracy' has paid off for them in keeping users on a platform even if they aren't paying for everything, they are still supporting it one way or another. I guess they just thought they'd be able to exercise more control in console tardland. I reckon crAptivision must have really begged for this one.

@Penetreitor

well I guess project natal would be handy then.. but yeah things do seem to be heading that way, to full on retardation, stupid sheep.

yee.. lotsa people i know got banned, at least we got a lovely going away present for retirement -- assassins creed2, ;)
