I can just see a whole slew of people purchasing a second Xbox, now that prices have dropped (both for resold modded ones and new retail ones). "Best of both worlds" kind of thing. Which is really too bad...
Me, I'm sticking with a legit 360. The few games I actually want for it, I'll happily buy.
@pragtastic,
theyr'e supposed to check to see if the systems have been tampered with first, if the warranty sticker is intact. If not they can not accept it. If they stck with their already existing rule there should be no problem getting a used one from them.
This is fantastic.... there must be a ghetto entrepreneur working at M$ cause that is some hood hustle-n right there.I love it.and if it were my box i would buy another one and never cross back over to the darkside
PS3's are pretty amazing, actually. The problem is that there isn't the online support that Xbox Live brings. If you don't care to play games online... PS3 is amazing. Especially when it comes with a blue ray. If you want online support though... xbox is the way to go. However, like the article states... if you don't want online support... just get a mod'd one... way cheaper than a ps3.
It is very possible to Un-ban an xbox 360. I have done it. The only problem is that it's around a 5 hour job and you must flash the nand with details from a console which hasn't been banned.
Technically I could buy 100 or these banned consoles, Un-ban them and sell them for full price. Unfortunately old habbits die hard and as soon as one person is banned they would all get banned.
wat da hell, microsoft is always crapping on about original material and banning piracy. there loosing to the ps3 so they make people who already have the xbox, buy another one
Guyz,i am a victim of modified xbox ..
i purchased if for 34,000 PKR which is almost $450 here in Karachi,Pakistan.
The retailer made a fool out of me be giving me a moded xbox elite .. =( i mailed to microsoft about this whole matter... lets see if there's any help... ;# piracy sucks!
Once again the little console that could is left out of the "big boys" discussion. The Wii continues to out sell both other consoles by a large margin and guess who Sony and Microsoft are copying at E3 not something the other company produced but Nintendo.
I sure wish people would stop being ignorant, but then I guess the world wouldn't be as happy as it is now.

You can mod without breaking that sticker.
They saw that they were about to loose the console war by the end of next year so they Ban 1 million people that NOW have to BUY another Xbox..
LOL MS are Theifs
No surprises here.
The only problem with that is: L4D as a single player experience gets old VERY quickly. L4D is meant to be played with people.
