Please Tell Me You Can't Play On Live.

Are game saves not considered cheating? They work on xbox live. Some of these games saves are even hacked. So what do you mean by xbox live is blocking cheaters?

Anybody who played NBA2k3 or NFL2k3 already know the common bugs that come along with it. In NBA2k3 there's the ENDLESS PAUSE, in NFL2k3 there's the bogus KICKOFF (which doesn't run down the timer, so you could leave your machine on all day), or the KICKOFF with a weak PUNTER that guarantees that you'll retrieve an onside kick.

Those are annoying bugs, lets not even start with hacks.

The point is, once backups can be played on XBLIVE, so can hacks. You can restrict just one, and have the other. They come hand-in-hand.

OH yeah and lets not forget about Midnight Club II. There's a LONG list.

It'll be a sad day when backups are playable on live.

QUOTE
Good I dont want to see cheaters and freeloaders with their Illegal copies on XBL


What kind of ridiculous statement is this? Although this site does not condone piracy, nor do I publicly, I could care less if the people on Live have a retail game or not. How would you even know unless they were cheating? <And if they were cheating, wouldn't it be obvious?> This statement seems elitist to me, like Live is some private club for just the "xbox right wing"  laugh.gif

QUOTE
It's annoying how people assume that people who want to play backups on live are either cheaters or expect to use the live service for free. Personally, I make copies of all my retail games and would like to be able to use them online. Also, I don't see why my Xbox has to be in the exact state that M$ demands just to play online.


Amen brother! My xbox, my games, my Live subscription, I should be able to do whatever I want with them. If you think otherwise, people like you are the reason the DMCA got signed into law  dry.gif

And if you think people are cheating, just play with people who you know aren't cheating. It is that simple!

You cannot cheat unless the people you play against are using the same cheats.  It is impossible, a modifed game with cheats can NOT connect to another game that isn't modified, you will get booted from the game.

If someone were to make a "cheat" that say, put banshees and shades in multiplayer, don't you think you would want the option to use backed up games on XBOX Live?  It would be nice to have a hacked version of Halo that had this option, and to be able to find other XBOX Live players that have the hack so you could play against them.

second, why shud it matter if ppl use backup copies of games on XB live as long as they arent hurting u????? only problem that should be discussed here is cheating online, M$ shud focus on just banning cheaters than ppl who run unsigned code.............
