So I was busting into some COD4 tonight in preparation for the MW2 launch next week, and I found someone on my friends list already playing MW2 online!! I messaged him and asked what the deal was, and he replied "lucky :)" I know it leaked on various torrent sites and what not, but what gives?? You think he'll get banned? I know I've heard people getting games a day or two early, but jeez......

You have it LEGITIMATELY or got it by some other means......? My questions really is, are retailers letting it go early?

i got it legitimately ;)... the wink tells all

It doesn't matter if you've played it offline. Unless you played it on a different xbox that you don't use for xbox live then you're gonna get banned. It sends the info to MS as soon as you log back in. I don't understand why you people don't look up some information on that crap when they mod their xbox

I have three or four friends who are running the priated game, I've already filed complaints against them. Tons of people are playing the pirated version right now, it's most of the people on.

well **** me your a **** of a friend, as for the guy who said it sends info to MS when you sign back in thats only if you have a hard modded console a softmod console is able to play online and theres nothing agaisnt getting a legit copy early and the console isnt able to tell if your running the real thing or not


THIS is hilarious tho its meant to be the PC gamers who are pirates and they dont even have a release yet

Although ima guessing that since you require a PC to pirate a 360 game theyll still blame PC gamers for the piracy of there game

Developers need to learn most people pirate because A) there bored at the time and B) they will pirate sumthing to kill time that they were intrested in at some point but some alteration to the game has either reduced its value for money or implemented something that makes them feel like there being treated like a thief and god knows if im assumed guilty of sumthing before i do it i may as well do it(Spore)

logic fail, there are no legit copies out there because the game hasnt been released. Thus he has a modded console that is able to play downloaded games. The rest is just nonsensical

He probably means plays it on an new Gamertag that doesn't have Xbox LIVE, so it can't send the info back to Microsoft. Also Infinity ward have already said on the day before release they are resetting all leaderboards and ranks so people that have already got it dont have an unfair advantage. Also IW said that playing MW2 online now is like sticking a red cross on your Profile, whether it be on PS3 or 360 so prepared to get banned people.

I think it's becoming pretty common to stores break the release date. That must be the case IMO.

I have been gaming longer than most of you have been alive. I have yet to see a person that wouldnt "pirate"if they knew how. I would bet that 99% of the people here have something "pirated" right now. And anyone who says different is lying. Sorry...true story.
