Anyone dumb enough to mod their console and have it hooked up to live deserves the ban. I don't see the draw of modded consoles either, half the reason to play 360 is to play it online.
I guess it's lucky for them they can go get an arcade for $200 and get a $100 walmart gift card with it, hey maybe they can even try buying their games with it.
lol qft, when will people learn, i used to be one of those people who thought it was ok to pirate everything, but now that i make music and sell it i realize that it sucks to have someone rip of your creative property that you worked really hard on and spent lots of hours doing. not cool people

That's not true.I love the quote from one of the banned players : "A player banned from Xbox Live told the U.K.'s Radio 1 that he was "gutted" and "distraught" by the decision. The player admitted paying an electronics shop more than $100 to modify his Xbox so it could play pirated games."
The guy admits playing pirated games,but he's "distraught" over getting booted? He's lucky the game industry doesn't have their own version of the RIAA (yet),getting banned would be the least of his problems.
Don't make the same mistake I did. Had my school not kept my information private, I don't know what would have happened to me.
Next week's article, "Xbox Console Sales Surge by 1 million."

Having to pay for xbox live to play any game online is what people should be upset about in the first place.
Why do people keep bitching about this. Its $50 bucks a year. That is fucking cheap! Not mention you can buy them on eBay in card form for cheaper than that.
That's not true.
In college, I was caught downloading a torrent for AoE3 and the school received a cease and desist letter from something along the lines of the RIAA. I can't, for the life of me, remember what it was called.

because it shouldn't be forced on me or anyone when they already pay for an internet connection, console, and the actual game.

No one is holding a gun to your head to buy Xbox Live. There are plenty of games you can play on the Xbox without Live. I did not have Live for close to 2 years.
the obvious point is you can't play a game online that you payed for and are hosting.
Then dont. Xbox Live is a pay service because it costs Microsoft money to make, support, and update. So sorry that there isnt a charity organization for you to play games on.

yeah I'm not going to kind of my point, if you don't want to hear me bitch don't respond to me
NO, if you don't want to hear me bitch about your bitching, then dont respond to ME!

I get your point, yo. Though the quality of XBL is far better than PSN and similar online services, there should be a bare bones option for xbox players just to play online and not have all the extras of XBL.
For me, it is what? $4 a month? It would be worth it if I really cared about console gaming.
xfire pisses all over xbl and psn plays games online the same way that xbl does but for free.
so your practically paying $4 a month to create a party chat and send game invites LOL

Steam.

How did I know this thread would spiral down to bitching about Live as a service. I guess we can see who really got banned lol
Pirates exposed!
All of which, besides PSN, are for the PC. The PC should always have better services. That said, PSN and Home are awful, but getting better. XBL on the other hand, is getting more...metrosexual, but still leaps above what Sony offers for free.

i just realized PSN Home is free too if you like those sorts of things.
You just realized? Have you been under a rock for a few years?
