..and I was playing Fallout 3(Point Lookout addon) just the night before.
I don't download games off the internet, I always direct rip what I intend to play. I verify each copy, despite this fact. The only even remotely questionable thing I ever played was Dynasty Tactics Gundam 2 or whatever, many months ago.
I don't play demos, I haven't touched any new games since Wolfenstein. I haven't even seen a Wave 4 game yet.
And yet my console is down for the count.
I find it funny, personally, and don't mind too much other than not being able to finish Fallout 3. The addons apparently have to connect with Marketplace to work?
I do, however, wish I understood -how- M$ is fingering people now.

C'est la vie.

1. you just proved a point, they are banning people with hacked firmware so why have it on the console if he only plays originals on
2. how do you know that 360mods are giving legit info, knowone and i mean KNOWONE knows how long the wave will go on for.

The only way cofree will know how long the wave is gunna go on for is if he works for microsoft, he might be the boss around here but when it comes to ban waves he knows as much as we do about them, correct me if im wrong.

Ban Hammer got me. I don't play any downloaded content, but I still got it. I would say that no one is safe from this go round of bans! I have only checked one of my consoles this morning, but it wasn't pretty.

I was watching the chat all night and c4eva said "he's been testing all the drives.
He still says the firmware is undetectable.
Microsoft more than likely recorded all the people using bad game
rips, or played an early release, and kept a list.
And then they started the ban wave from that list all at once.
So it could have been a game someone played months ago, and didn't get
banned til now."
sounds like good news to me
So calm down the sky is'nt falling ,also I don't want to put a plug to another website but I found one that allows you to connect to the internet without going on xbox's server and paying. you go on to another free server with your xbox and play against people using the free server. I think this is huge so let me know if I can list the website with the info we all need to switch to it if we want to play a modded console online to be completely safe. This will give microsoft the finger like never before
