As has been reported, Microsoft has been cracking down on modded consoles for its Xbox 360 console. This weekend angry pirates, ( thats funny to type) threw loose threats at Stephen Toulouse the director of Policy and Enforcement for Xbox Live. Pressed with phone calls where threats toward himself, wife, and pets were made. Toulouse made an appearance on a IRC channel to ask the pirates to stop calling him and that all threats had been passed on to law enforcement.
Heres a copy of the trancript from the IRC channel #360banned.

While this is funny in no way shape or form, you gotta admit these low life #%$#^#, really love their xbox 360's. Talk about Fanboys.
Do You think they went a little too far?
GL: "Staff writer Shaz reflects on his small library of physical games he's kept throughout the decades, and how a recent move made him nostalgic."
I lost my drive for collecting physical games due to many discs lacking the whole complete game. Instead, of collecting games I started collected figurines.
I am a collector have a room dedicated with a couple original arcade cabinets, physical game library, old and new consoles and controllers backlit with LED lighting. It’s very cool to have but with emulation being so strong and prevalent, I sometimes feel foolish because the hobby is expensive and like another said, the full game is not always on the disc. Could probably spend more wisely but I enjoy it.
Most games are usually on disc still. Of course you got you publishers that are hit and miss, Activision, ubisoft, ea, Microsoft, where the rest of the game needs downloaded.
While some video games overwhelm you with sheer scale, titles like Asura's Wrath and Doom Eternal make you the boss player right upfront.
Wolfenstein: The New Order turns ten years old today, so we decided to play it again and discovered just how much of an extinct kind of game it is.
It's an outstanding game and so was The Old Blood. Also a lost era of gaming. Interesting, I received a physical copy of The Old Blood 9 years ago today from Poland. It was digital only in North America initially upon release so I had to import.
Wow just wow.
Unbelievable Right?
If their was a legitimate use for a modded xbox other than playing a copied game i could see people getting upset and have it justified, but there is nothing else its good for.
These guys are obviously killers..I mean they play videogames..so they have to be serious right?
