Microsoft vs Pirates 11 November 2008 at 2:17 pm by Dave Burns

We’re getting reports that the Microsoft Ban Hammer has crashed down again, this time targeting Gears of War 2 and Call of Duty 5 pirates.  Heres one quote from one angry forum user:

ooh well, dammit! this sux ass! was sittin’ here catchin’ up on some hulu stuff… and low and behold i get a message, disconnected from xbl. didn’t think much of it. then i’m imin’ with a friend of mine, and he asks, can you get on xbl… test connection… YOU’VE BEEN BANNED!!! argh. owell”

Oh well cant say we didn’t warn you! Another member believes it isn’t anything to do with Gears of War 2 saying:

“I did NOT play gear of war early, i played if for the first time to day.  So this does not only affect those who played gears early.”

There’s one thing in common in these comments (No, not their very bad grammar and spelling) They all have modified Xbox’s so here’s a warning kids - Don’t play with mod kits!

+ GTA IV: Selling Fast! By Falseywoo 08 April 2008 at 7:24 pm and have No Comments

UK retailers Game, Gamestation and Play.com are reporting that their preorder stocks of GTA IV are all but expended. Players wanting to cash in on the offers of free Gamerpics and MSPoints may well be out of luck with all retailers saying that copies ordered after April 7th may not arrive at your doorstep on release day.
