Microsoft retracts: We never said we had 1 million banned XBL accounts
The one million ban that Microsoft pulled on its Xbox Live players with modded console units now have been flagged as a mere “overestimate”. Yep, the numbers have supposedly been exaggerated, despite their initial claims that it was at 1 million.
The one million ban that Microsoft pulled on its Xbox Live players with modded console units now have been flagged as a mere “overestimate”. Yep, the numbers have supposedly been exaggerated, despite their initial claims that it was at 1 million.
XBL General Manager Marc Whitten is responsible for this “admission,” in an interview with Venture Beat. Said Whitten, that number did not come from them, and that they never claimed to have banned that much gamers from the XBL.
He did not address, however, the news that came out that Microsoft did order their XBL call center agents to unleash the banhammer on one million subscribers.
