well for me i dont play it via Online ( Xbox Live )..most of the time i played it on my own and sometimes when my girl or friends ( which is xbox360 owner ) came to my place then it will be more fun play it together....

the reason is simple my internet connection in my area always keep on DC ! so why should i play it via online.....STREAMYX always like that...

what ever it is i just love my Modded Xbox360

That's just an excuse. What's they're really trying to say is... "I am da king here. I want to ban you I ban. You blow ah?"

Look at this statement....

One of the great things about LIVE and the unified community is that we work hard to create a level playing field for all gamers and have a no tolerance policy towards inappropriate behavior like hacking or cheating.


With the advent of Windows LIVE, they're already giving an unfair advantage to PC users. I'm talking specifically about KEYBOARD AND MOUSE usage. The mouse definitely gives FPS players better control. Not to mention hacking and cheating is about a gazillion times easier on a PC. What's worse is that they're allowing PC users to go head on with XBOX users!

No. They are not interested in leveling playing field. They're interested in making money from you.

By the way, I can almost forsee MS selling an "X360 Certified Wireless Mouse and Keyboard" solution for RM400.

Actually if you follow the news of the first xb360-pc crossplay game - shadowrun, it's said that they are giving the console advantage by building the game based on the console first. Besides, you are given the option to play with PC players only, Xb360 players only, or both.
(so it's an option for people who wanted to play against each other and you know there are alot of people on the market been arguing about this.)
Either way, i don't think any Pc player would wana subscribe to GOLD just to play with console player at the first place.

Of course Microsoft is all about making money, they are not doing charity laugh.gif We all knew this day would come, it happen for xbox 1 so why not xb360? People are pirating on their console and it makes sense to ban modded console. Banning also cut down cheating on multiplayer (read Halo 2 cheating fiesta)

I wonder if they will ban modded PC's. XD

More realistically...I wonder if they will ban pirated games. One wonders if they can even detect it in the first place...and if they could, would that be a breach of privacy?

I don't suppose the PC player would subscribe to Gold to play with a console player...but its been integrated.

Haven't read about this option anywhere. If its there, what's the point anyway? The whole purpose is integration.

LoL, i'm only amused at this news cos when i bought my modded 360 from andy at tnl last year, i joked with him whether the live ban/3rol will affect me 1st? now i know whistling.gif

hurry up and prep an official malaysia 360 launch, MS Msia smile.gif keep the pricing on par with sgp prices, pretty pls? i'm still buying ori games waiting for local official launch smile.gif

if pirated games kenot go online, selling official games + live subscription in Msia is feasible. hopefully, the govt dont overimpose too much taxes.


only 1 regret: no more going on xbl idolmaster leaderboard to learn from those expert producers how to properly produce my jpop idol with my current set cry.gif cry.gif

Until there are more updates, nobody knows what happen now. Most likely they detect backup games and backup games are what hurt them the most and thus banning them.
Second to that would be cheating, allowing user to install hacks for multiplayer game.
Thirdly, security breach? Don't forget alot of xb360 user got credits card info on their machine...

@Shadowrun : Well, it's an option for people whether they wana play with each other. Just like you want to play with stranger or friends, what game mode you want to play etc etc. Choices.

Imo MS didnt launch 360 here because of piracy. Once we get rid of those, then only they will interested to launch 360 here. IIRC company like MS and Sony get most of their profits from game licensing, not much on hardware (atleast the first 2 year of console life) smile.gif

When is the last time he login Live? Last game he plays ori or pirated?
If you add 12-24 hours after his last login and still haven't get ban. He should be safe.

all i can say that it's been a long time coming.

it's still early to tell if all modded consoles will be affected but im really keen to see what will happen to the market.

also i think the cat and mouse game will start soon for those with the modded consoles.
