Kinda scary then what MS had in mind for people that didn't have a internet connection.He was online when he was playing before the ban. If he didn't get the day 1 patch, the DRM is likely still in place and He might have been in that 24 hour window yesterday when the game was playable.
Indeed.imagn.

They've console banned 360s. I don't recall it being for anything minor though, more to stop hacked systems.

You could play a console banned 360 offline, so that excuse doesn't fly.
Besides, isn't it sorta silly paying $500 for a video game console that can't even play games straight out of the box.
Imagine if online authentication was deactivated at the OS level, but was still possible from game to game.
It was in the eqrly hours of yesterday when he was banned, so at least 24hrs had passed since then. Maybe he didn't notice before because he has doing whatever he does on sundays, got home, turned onthe Xbox and voila, no more access to it.

They did? Even for offline play?

This kinda mentions that games will need to be patched before they can go offline.
Of course this is all speculation.

So it looks like it works on a game to game basis! I wonder what other publishers will use this?
Boy, are you going to be confused over the next few pages. Google 'neogaf cboat'What does "imagn" mean?

Yes, this is what I can't understand when people keep mentioning this. The patch was to remove the DRM and enable offline play (which he did for a while) so why is it now not able to do what he did yesterday? If the patch removed the DRM then it should have also removed the 24 hour check in, surely. Why the hell would MS not include the 24 hour check in on the same patch that allowed him to play offline?

This is why you shouldn't support this half baked HW right now. No direction. Nothing more to say, it's a sad situation right now.

MS bricked consoles this gen too, so... not really. Just don't do stupid shit that gets you banned?
