Microsoft bans modded 360s

Console maker nixes Xbox Live access for systems that it determines have been altered "to try and maintain a fair gaming environment."

Earlier this month, Microsoft cracked down on Xbox 360 users bypassing regional lockouts on downloaded content. The system's Spring Update included updates that would prevent users from using dummy profiles to access Xbox Live Marketplace content intended for other regions. However, the update had no punitive measures for those who had done so in the past.

Now it appears the company is taking a stricter stance with respect to piracy and online cheating.
