MS should do the smart thing. Fix the loophole instead of wasting money and taking him to court, cause it won't stop others, they'll just be more discreet.

This guy will either,

1. Get a job with Microsoft (which I assume he is hoping for)
2. Get a cease and desist order
3. Get banned from Xbox Live
4. Taken to court

Don't worry, you can buy in bulk!

There is nothing Micosoft nor Bungie can do to this guy. other then ban him from Xbox Live.. If they been the Save swap people then he will get banned... I'll say it again, If it's Built by a Computer it can be hacked By a Computer.. This just shows that MS need to waste more money on there Protection departed.. Nice Job to this guy... Now we just need to find out how to read the Xbox 360 Motherboard Info...

Even though I hate Microsoft, this kid should be tied up, gagged, and thrown into an alleyway in Compton.

Kinda cool, but honestly you ruin it for everyone else. Bungie is a great developer who connects with their community, they make games for you to enjoy and then you treat them like shi+? Your not doing anything for the community except trying to show off. If you really want to be productive take down the government or something, don't ruin our fun.

What a lamer and yes you did directly break the TOS by modifying your profile and then connecting to Live.

I hope MS and Bungie make an example out of this person. He can't really expose any more achievements if he is bound by a court order. After that he can do all his hacking with a dull rock in a jail cell.

Thank you for ruining some of the surprises in ODST for people.

Come on MS and Bungie the non-hackers and people who maintain the integrity of your service and pay for it want some justice! We want to know we are in a safe and in a hacker free environment. Banning him will not be enough, he will just find a way around it and you can see from his own words that is his intent. You need to step it up and your paying customers demand it.

Seriously? You're going to make threats against Microsoft?? A company that has a basically unlimited money supply, and would not hesitate to drop millions in court to squash some annoying punk? HA.

Make an example out of him, MS!

18 - ODST Achieves
I really can't believe how hard one of the Vidmaster achievements is - doing a level on legendary without firing a single shot or grenade!!

That's tough!!
