Been asking about this as I have informed (because I was looking for one) that you now need to be careful when buying an Xbox off ebay or similar sites as they could be on sale because they have been banned from the Xbox Live service. Typically Microsoft would have detected (not sure how?) that these boxes were running pirated games on Xbox live, so they banned these units. Anyone know anymore about this?
There will probably be a lot of people trying to dump there banned Xbox 360's on Craigslist and other auction sites.
Hmm didn't think about people selling their Xbox because of the ban. I guess people will have to be careful however I'm sure the people who are savy enough to hack the Xbox in the first place will find a way to unban it.
I believe the ban was 1 million Xbox Live accounts: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13772_3-10395265-52.html
If you have Modded or Chipped your Xbox 360 you will get banned but the only reason they got banned is that they play the game online before its even out
I've heard about this. I guess it is better to buy a new console or buy one from a legit company like Gamestop that way you can always return it
