Of course there is benefit.

1. They got rid of people not buying original games.
2. Less cheater from modded consoles.
3. Forcing people buying original game thus more money for them.

The only people that don't see MS gaining from this are, you know, pirates.

In a perfect would, it would not. But come on lah, everyone here buys modded console for the sake of playing pirated games.
Seriously, how many people actually want to do that, especially Malaysians?

If im not mistaken ppl who mod their 360s alrdy chose to forgo online play , they're happy with only offline singleplayer and splitscreen this wont affect them much at all .. as most of these would have come from the ps2 modded fanbase since they only play ps2 "games" offline ... so not much of an impact here if you ask me .. only those who are stupid enough to play online with modded console are playing with fire ... thats their prob ... meh .. paying rm200+ for LIVE and playing with pirated stuff ? suicide if you ask me ...

I guess it falls back on whether the gamer is willing to live up to his rep as a gamer.

If its a rubbish game like Hellboy:Science of Evil, I wouldn't even spend RM10 on it. But for a game like Modern Warfare 2, I'd happily spend RM200 on it in addition to the RM10 spent on a pirated copy to decide on my purchase

Well, if i'm not, I will always mumbling my family member la. They all buy pirate a lot. especially those wanna watch those cantonese drama.....

The only reason I always told other over here not to discuss pirate is just as a respect to the forum and to keep our dirty little secret from going worldwide. This is a World Wide Web forum and it's not private.

Don't you wish all those XBOX LIVE and warranty support will come to Malaysia?

I agree. I do wish that XBOX LIVE and warranty is supported in Malaysia and some of us won't need pay to send to Singapore for warranty or going back and forth to claim.

have you ever thought for a minute if say you are the developer/publisher of the game and you don't see a single sen from the game you created? how would you feel?

everyone is playing (a pirated copy) your game but you can't afford to pay the bills or put food on the table. would you still be kind enough to say "malaysian people stil not rich like in other country... which can afford to buy all ori games... try put u in their shoes to kernkraft?"

Yeah bro, understand your pain. So that's why we supported original, hoping that at least 1 day MS will open here in Malaysia.
