wrighty496 Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 Found this article about it, apparently between 600,000 and 1 million users booted off the network. The 20 million is total users on the network from 34 million consoles sold in total....... still blimmin awesome numbers tbh to say its 'only' gamers lol
The London Allstar Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 About time something was done really, its been going on with different consoles for years. I remember round my way there were more people with a chipped PS1 than a legit one! Mayby they might drop the price of the games a little now... ha, as if.
jamie c Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 hahaha! its their own fault, if they want the game cheaper why not wait a few months like i do, the game doesn't change
Hutch#331 Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 Most who get caught are the ones who play the game before the release dates

MoR137 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 INTERESTING ARTICLE Excellent timing from Microsoft...... besides, their consoles still work offline and MW2 has a whole 6-hour campaign to sink their teeth into haha!
Lee Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Theres allready ways around it on the internet, one of which is changing the mac address on the xbox itself, could be costly as it involves a new console but that can allways be sold once fixed.
