EDIT:
Can a mod please change the title to specify Xbox One games? Thanks.

I can understand not being able to play multiplayer, but single player too?

Aesius · Jun 15, 2013

There's no way that will backfire or anything.

kick51 · Jun 15, 2013

Is there any angle they didn't fuck up

Arksy · Jun 15, 2013

Also illegal under Australian law. w00tw00t.

Nori Chan · Jun 15, 2013

The ultimate ban hammer

Averon · Jun 15, 2013

Yup. With your games now tied to your account, a ban=no games.

zroid · Jun 15, 2013

holy shit

Mass Effect · Jun 15, 2013

I thought this was known.

Anyone know if that's the case with PSN? I don't think it is with Steam.

Card Boy · Jun 15, 2013

WTF

Is this for Xbone, 360 or both?

Valkyr Junkie · Jun 15, 2013

EU courts are gonna love ripping into MS in the near future.... again.

jamesinclair · Jun 15, 2013

There is not enough popcorn in the world for the wonders this console brings

Guntank · Jun 15, 2013

So how can you get banned on an Xbox Live account?

The Technomancer · Jun 15, 2013

Well I can't see this ending poorly at all

Definitely not the case with Steam, it only locks you out of games that use VAC security IIRC. Didn't EA do something like this with Origin and forum bans and there was a huge shitstorm?

Papytendo · Jun 15, 2013

I don't know, I think I would prefer a ban if I had an Xbox One.

crash13 · Jun 15, 2013

Damn.

Zombie James · Jun 15, 2013

Good thing you can always just buy physical copies.

Spongebob · Jun 15, 2013

Horrific.

xbhaskarx · Jun 15, 2013

That should cut down on all the "fag n***** Jew" nonsense....

F0rneus · Jun 15, 2013

I think they are actively sabotaging themselves at this point

Ricky_R · Jun 15, 2013

MAXIMUM BAN

Dead Prince · Jun 15, 2013

it just enforces everyone to be better gamers and follow the rules.

Tagg9 · Jun 15, 2013

Wow, I can't believe Xbox Support tackled that one.

Betty · Jun 15, 2013

It's like a bad joke that keeps going on and on and on with no punchline.

sn00zer · Jun 15, 2013

holy shit

prag16 · Jun 15, 2013

Oh boy. What if you get permabanned? What is MSFT smoking...

ThoughtsOfSpeaking · Jun 15, 2013

lbk62 · Jun 15, 2013

IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE YOU AINT TELLIN ME MICROSOFT?

What next? you are gonna punch some babies? kick my dog? steal my girlfriend?

MormaPope · Jun 15, 2013

For all those people that'll flash their genitals with Skype chat during online matches, they'll be pleasantly surprised when they can flash no more.

Exr · Jun 15, 2013

Call of Duty Ghost will now reign king on PS4

cheststrongwell · Jun 15, 2013

The always online doesn't bother me. This bothers me. Fuck you MS.

BassForever · Jun 15, 2013

This is unreal

Carl · Jun 15, 2013

Welp, this just gets better by the day

PuppetMaster · Jun 15, 2013

Ya this seems possibly illegal. Unless the ToS REALLY says you do not own your games and your just legally renting them from MS and they have the rights to cancel that at any time.

R3TRODYCE · Jun 15, 2013

Hopefully this makes people act rational when they get online.

Immaculate · Jun 15, 2013

Holy shit why

dead souls · Jun 15, 2013

Just another reason why I would never buy an Xbone.

Manmademan · Jun 15, 2013

this.

ULTROS! · Jun 15, 2013

Microsoft sure loves elitism:

- you must live in the few supported countries
- you can only buy new games
- you need reliable internet
- you need to be in your best behavior

Pineconn · Jun 15, 2013

Microsoft has impressive testicular fortitude to move forward with this.

macewank · Jun 15, 2013

Maybe. Probably even.

But let's remember one thing folks. Xbox Support doesn't support the xbone, nor are they in a position to dictate or speak to the policies surrounding it. The console isn't even out yet.

harSon · Jun 15, 2013

I've never been banned, and I'll never be banned, but that's some Grade-A bullshit. There's no justification for forfeiting the rights to your entire games catalog for misbehaving on their online service.

Card Boy · Jun 15, 2013

Looks like CBOAT was right once again. Xbone DRM is worse than we thought.

rrs · Jun 15, 2013

WELP

It's like the Aristocrats being done by a bad dark comedian.

lordchompy · Jun 15, 2013

Even Steam doesn't deny you access to your purchased games, just the ability play online the game you were banned for.

Psychoward · Jun 15, 2013

You can't lose access to your Xbox One games if you never buy an Xbox One.

Really? Really. Really?

LycanXIII · Jun 15, 2013

Xbox Support on twitter has caused more problems than solved recently.

Dragoon En Regalia · Jun 15, 2013

It's like they went to Disneyland and thought this would be a swell deal after the ice-cream.

Somnid · Jun 15, 2013

I don't mind this in principle, lot at stake to be that guy. Still false positives and all.

On Xbone, getting banned from XBL maybe revokes(?) access to your games

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
