One of my consoles got banned yesterday the 4th. Gamertag did not get banned just console. I have others so i was back on instantly pretty much so i dont care. I did play some games early like wolverine offline, street fighter 4 online and it needed a fix later so that could have been it for sure. I also played MW2 early and i played using a bad copy with activate disc offline and i played online using a diff retail copy later. I dont think MW2 got my consle banned cause i expected MW2 to ban gamertag.
ANd about checking games already burnt with ABGX. In my expereicne checking games from DVD is not reliabale. I have checked .iso with abgx and it passes fine then burned the game and had abgx say it is bad or it cant find it in the database when i know its there cause i just scanned the iso before burning. So i really dont think abgx works well with already burnt games. I have even had a game pass birn and then ABGX will scan from disc on one computer and say it is bad when i know it is good so i scan it on a diff PC with same version abgx and everything and it passes but then go back to other PC and it fails.
If you send me questions on Live about modding or anything related i will block you. Dont be an idiot.

One of my neighbours got banned today just after downloading sky player. He was signed out for the update and attempted to be signed back in but instead got the console ban message, he only played a few copies: fifa 10, batman aa, left 4 dead, smackdown vs raw 2010 and they were all patched and not played early.
Consoles:
XBOX360 Falcon console with Lite-On 74850C
PS3 80gb phat model with 120gb hdd
PS3 60gb model
PS3 modded on 3.55 |

I was banned about a half an hour ago. I have been using 1.51 for my Hitachi for about 5 months. I played Modern Warfare online to see how good it was and hoping to get banned so I can get it for my PS3. That is the only time a played a game early.

Did it say Console ban on the message on your 360? mine said specifically console Ban. I ask cause i would like to know if your gamertag got banned for MW2 or just console. If you aren certain can you try to login to xboxlive website and see if it works to verify?

It may of been stupid but it does not matter much to me.
It was a console ban message that came up and I can still check all my stuff on xbox.com.

I'm about to update my iXtreme from 1.6 to 1.61. I hope this will prevent me from banning. And I really want to run Modern Warfare 2 on 10th of November but I'm paranoid now.
I still can't believe that M$ finally decided to spend some money on pirates.

just wait for MW2 to be in the abgx databse. before trying to play even on 1.61
and ms does this every year in november, so this isnt the first time...more like the 3rd or 4th

All right, I really don't think that EVERYONE will eventually get banned. Sooner or later Microsoft will stop its ban hammer because it is expensive! I think they will ban people until 10th of November or maybe for couple of weeks longer. It costs money to find pirates and ban them and M$ will have to stop at some point. I'm sure Activision have something to do with this. I wouldn't be surprised if Activision would pay M$ nice bribe so m$ would ban people playing pirated copies of Modern Warfare 2.

they make more money from banning people cause most of them run out and buy a new console. They need hardware sales this time of the year to "beat" the comeptition. once you put a system in place to identify modded systems i would imagine it doesnt cost much for that to run.

Well it was inevitable, I just got banned.
1.6 lite-on always stealth checked.
I was signed on to live yesterday and tried installing a game to the hard drive and it kept giving me a dirty disc error which was odd because the disc was brand new. Tried signing on this morning and I got the console ban sign.

I play heavy online on wii and ps3 and was thinking about adding a xbox to my collection. But Its useless to buy unless I can find a way to get around the 360 ban waves.
fortunately I found the NME V2.
I just need to know if any ones been banned yet with it.
Its a fairly new chip and this is the first ban wave since its been out and Its now time to see if the chip holds it end of the bargin "100% live safe super ban proof technology".
Still waiting to hear who has been banned yet with it.
Seems like its the flashers and cheap mod chip users who got the blunt end of the stick "Banned".
I have an NME v2, and I got banned on the Oct. 30th. I was able to recover my gamertag on a new/unbanned console and it signed in to XBL just fine. When I moved the profile on to an MU and put it in the banned console, the profile became corrupted when I tried to go back and use it on new/unbanned console. It appears that I cannot move any of the save game data from the banned console to the new/unbanned console, as that reads corrupt as well. Anyone have this same problem? ..or anyone know how to succefully transfer saved game data from a banned console to a new console. ..and please don't state the obvious, because that doesn't work!

If you're banned you can't:
log on Live, that means: no online play, no downloads, no game updates, nothing that depends of Live
Also, you can't install GAMES into your hard drive. That's new and we don't know for sure what MS is doing.
What you can do is play all of your games OFFLINE. That means no online multiplayer.
You still can update you xbox system. But to do that you need to download the update on a PC and burn it to a dvd.
###################
Moving on subject
When will we be able to say this wave is over??
Us got theirs, EU as well....
U guys thinks MS has more targets?

Id say wait till months end. didnt the past waves happen towards the end of the month? this one came earlier due to MW2 no doubt
and as far as profile going corrupt and save games. My 360 was banned lastnight. first thing i did was swap the HDD to another and check and my GT was fine and i went on to play borderlands online with friends using my save game.

im not saying dont get on live till after end of the month im just saying the Ban Wave could last that long.
Look staying off live will not keep you from being banned, its either going to happen or it isnt. so just play as normally and as always make sure you verify everything. thats it

Last time I played pirated copy was on 2nd November. Since thta day I just play Guitar Hero Metallica and Battlefield Bad Company which are my original games. I think M$ detects pirated games when users use HDD for downloading stuff from marketplace or saving pirated games on it. Since I just saved original games since that day, I think I'm safe... So far...

They got me today. Having the same problem with my profile some others have mentioned, where it doesn't even show up on other consoles. Will see if recovering it and moving the saves with a memory unit helps.

I think if MS was using the HDD to identify modded units they would also be trying to combat modded HDD too. and you dont even need a HDD to go on live you can use a memcard if you want.

I heard today that a bunch of people were banned last night. Thought it was just my friend (who I flashed his drive just 2 weeks ago), but I went to school today and I heard a couple people say they knew a few people that were banned last night...
My 360 is still fine, lol
I have a bunch of friends that want me to flash their consoles tomorrow because they all want MW2 but I don't know what to do because of this wave... Unless they ban by area and move on I doubt the wave is over?
