Microsoft Starts Banning 360s on LIVE - MS Confirms

[OhMuffin]

Stop being so anti-modding and being a goodie-2-shoes. I hate people who are so full of themselves. Its starting to get annoying.

"oh hehe, i hope you all get banned for life"

Why are you SO happy that people with modded boxes got banned? Do you work for MS, or are you just ignorant?

Thats like me saying "oh pixels, i hope you get testicular cancer and die". We're all already banned, by saying garbage like that your kicking us while we are down.

Oh, wanna know what I think?

Pirates > People who pay $69+tax for crappy games

^^ My 2 cents ^^

How about in that firmware update they turn on live back on for the banned people so that they can play online with legally bought games...

EDIT: Actually, no never mind. I don't care anymore. I'm getting a brand new 360 tomorrow evening so what do I care about all these pirate kiddies.

Because we (people who pay for games) are financing all of the good games that you pirates just steal. That's why we're happy when you people get knocked down.

What good games?

I just see it as a waste of my money buying a $69 game to play it for 4 hours and get bored of it.

The only game I'd consider buying is... Gears of War, but not anymore since I beat it and online sucks.

Other than that, all the other games out for 360 bore me and are not worth my money. The next game I'd buy is most likely Halo 3.

I remember when I was younger and had a Xbox 1 (unmodded), it used to break my balls buying a game and then getting so sick of it. Shortly after, I modded my xbox 1, and saw the light.

Rent it. Or, just don't play it! Holy crap, what a concept!

I don't care if you play the game for four hours, four days, four months, or four years. If you don't pay for it, you don't have the right to play it for four seconds.

[OhMuffin]

Rent it. Or, just don't play it! Holy crap, what a concept!

No, renting breaks my balls too..

I just don't like spending money on stuff I can get for free. Call me an evil person, thief, or whatever, I don't care.

I don't really find anything wrong with it, and you shouldn't care what I do, its not like I'm stealing money from your pocket.

When I walk by EB games in the mall, I laugh at all the people purchasing games... LOLL I'm so evill haha

If nobody bought games, there wouldn't be any games for you to steal. Do you understand that, or is that concept too much for you to handle?

Ehh... At the end of the day, its just FREAKING video games. I rather spend my money elsewhere... like go to dinner with my girlfriend.

So keep buying games, you are my hero! :yes: People like myself and laz will just keep ripping.

I really don't see the point you are trying to make with this.

My point seems very clear: I don't like paying for digital media that I can get for free.

Well, you spent $400 on your 360. It's just a FREAKING console.

My point seems very clear: I don't like paying for digital media that I can get for free.

My point is this: you are a selfish and despicable human being.

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

Ehh... At the end of the day, its just FREAKING video games.

Except that it's somebody's livelyhood and what they do to pay bills, eat, and go out with their gf's / wives.

Jeez, you need to grow up. Neowin doesn't need members like you :no:

If you ever get caught (who knows, it's unlikely but might happen), make sure you don't forget to tell me your scheduled court date so I can laugh at you too :rolleyes:

Who cares? He gets his FREAKING video games for free! Yeah! Nobody else matters.

$400 was the investment I need to make for free games. :)

It seems that I'm a superiorly intelligent human being compared to you. Seeing as I didn't need to pay a penny for games for almost a full year. While you were one of those people in EB Games buying $70 games.

I don't want to grow up, I like being 17, having a good car, and having more money in the bank than you. So, why would I want to grow up?

Let the flamming being :)

Yup :)

Gotta love the "ethics". Let them do whatever they want. And the pricing of the games has nothing to do with piracy, that's just another lame attempt to justify the prices like the RIAA/MPAA.

Anyway, they are banned and people will still pirate games around the world. I don't see any of you doing ANYTHING to change that only bashings and personal attacks at people. :rolleyes:

I didn't have to pay for games either. I've been following the 360 modding scene since it was nothing but BS videos. I made a choice not to mod my 360, for lots of reasons. And now, I have a 360 that still works on Live, and you had to get a new one. Who exactly is smarter here?

I don't want to grow up, I like being 17, having a good car, and having more money in the bank than you. So, why would I want to grow up?

I probably drive a nicer car than you do, and I almost CERTAINLY have more money in the bank than you do. And I've been paying for my games all along. Why am I not surprised by the fact that you're 17?

LOLL stop hating on me...

I just keep reversing your attacks on me. Anyways;

First off, I'll have a BRAND NEW working 360 tomorrow, I made $75 selling my modded xbox 360. Therefore, I still consider myself smarter.

Second, your comparing your car to a car of a 17-year-old? For all I know your a middle aged man. Therefore you had more time to accumulate money for a nicer car. So I'd expect you to have a nicer car. LOLL

[Jeremy1]

For all I know your a middle aged man.

For all I know, so are you.

[OhMuffin]

For all I know, so are you.

Nah. Just read my posts... their too kiddish to be coming from an adult.

I just don't really feel the need buy video games. There are much better things for me to focus my attention, like school. Getting a good education and making more money than you. Ultimately driving a wayy better vehicle than you.

Honestly, what do you drive?

I drive a 2003 Cavalier, its my first car. At least I'm not driving around a beater from the 70's, like you most likely did when you were my age.

I could flame you forever, but I'll stop because I don't want to get a warning from a mod. :D

[Jeremy1]

Honestly, what do you drive?

I drive a 2007 Explorer, fully loaded. Leather, nav, heated seats, satellite radio. If it's an option, I've got it.

At least I'm not driving around a beater from the 70's, like you most likely did when you were my age.

When I was your age, which was four years ago, I drove a 2002 Focus.

Online Firmware is in BETA Stages, Going to be released soon :pirate:

... I made $75 selling my modded xbox 360. Therefore, I still consider myself smarter.

Yey, looks like I'll be modding my new 360 soon!

:| Only $75. Damn you really lowballed on that deal.

What are you talking about... 360's are hella cheap on eBay, its amazing I actually made money on it. :devil:

[neoadorable]

ohmuffin, stop doing that, i know you're cooler than this. stop messing with the guy. it's just games? heh, you're a gamer, true? that means you're JUST a gamer? no, it's who we are. why be ashamed of it.

yeah i used to pirate too...but that was on the Atari VCS and C64 back in the early 80's, for god's sake! yeah muffin, i'm twice your age! believe you me, you're gonna look back on this time and think "what hell was i talking about".

[OhMuffin]

Well, he started attacking me.. so whatever I'm not just gonna sit back and take it. The things he said just set me up perfectly.

I'm not really a "true" gamer... I just play my 360 when I'm bored.

The only game I'd consider myself as a "true gamer" is in Halo, but that wont be till September.
