QUOTE (VaporStone @ Jul 5 2003, 10:05 PM) its not gonna ruin live everyone thinks it will ... ppl r just gonna use it to play backups not to cheat HA.  That is all I have to say besides this. If backups can be played, Live is ruined. Don't we wish everyone was so nice and wouldn't cheat on Live.  If we can play games on Live, MS will begin checking drives for extra data.  That means I will need to replace mine so I can store stuff on F instead of E.  That is almost the best case scenerio though...what if MS can't stop cheaters?  Live will simply be as fun as Dreamcast was, without the lag.

There are ways for M$ and game designers to protect against cheating without spying on your Xbox and demanding that everyone's machine be in the same state...it's done with most online PC games. Sure, there is cheating, but it won't be nearly as common as you make it sound like.
