Can Xbox get infected with Starforce from Ubisoft games like a PC can?

This includes any Xbox Ubisoft game like Prince of Persia, Farcry, or any Tom Clancy game.

Other games that have Starforce on the PC but are also on Xbox include Pariah, The Suffering games, or the Flatout games.

Just wondering since Xbox is kind of a PC in a box.

Nope, Xbox games have to be checked by MS before they can be shipped out

StarForce isn't bad for your pc. It IS bad in some cases, when certain hardware combinations come together and then StarForce can be bugged. On a pc you have a problem then.

On the xbox, there are no "certain hardware combinations", there is just the xbox with three possible different dvd-drives and none of those has a problem with Starforce.

So don't worry. And don't worry on your pc either. The chance that something Starforce related happens to you (besides not playing a pirated game of course) is very very small.

i wouldnt think an xbox could get "infected" with anything. Probably since an xbox isnt a pc and you dont instal anything to your xbox..........  has ANYone ever got a virus on a console???
