No, the entire banning exercise is to prevent tempered console from using XBOX LIVE service only. not to the gamertag.

That's the reason for corrupt profile, inability to update GS, cannot install game to HDD & other stuff related directly or indirectly to XBOX LIVE

any unmodded XBOX360 console can do so. So your answer is yes.

Just that if your console can play those RM8/RM10 pirated copy, there're chances that your console to be banned by Microsoft later on.

So far the banned console will behave like what is discussed in this thread.

But in Malaysia...... sealed console is hard to get as it's not officially launched in Malaysia.

Some low morale shop will even make fun of you for obtaining original and trying to sell those game with higher than PS3 games price.

I'm still waiting for the day to come....when XBOX LIVE is official in Malaysia.....
