Thread: Microsoft Bans Modded Xbox's.

Started 1 month, 2 weeks ago by manicgames
Yesterday over 1 million Xbox Live gamers were banned for using mod chips and extra hard drives to get pirated games. My whole thing is, some players use mod chips to play copied games that are backed up so the original disks don't get destroyed, so what's the big deal?

From these recent forum posts I'm getting the idea that Microsoft is a control freak. It's probably true.

Quote from: manicgames on November 13, 2009, 08:02:13 PM That's because they've actually been available. There used to be a shortage so everyone was complaining about it, but in reality it's more of a novelty item than anything. Anyone I've asked who says they've owned a Wii says they only play it during parties or not at all. I own one, and I never play it, nor does the rest of my family. Your...

Wii + Softmod = FTW  Really though, some of the Wii Modchips are intense, like the one (Wiikey?) that you can stream ISOs from your PC to your Wii and it emulates a disk drive, and makes it think it is the disk drive, thus it seems to be without modification.
