Over the past few days, we have been reading comments and message boards following the Xbox One announcement. There are a few questions regarding used games. I wanted to clarify and provide this official statement: The ability to trade in and resell games is important to gamers and to Xbox. Xbox One is designed to support the trade in and resale of games. Reports about our policies for trade in and resale are inaccurate and incomplete. We will disclose more information in the near future.    

Yesterday news broke that Xbox Live was hacked, but the 'pastebin' was fishy no solid proof!But today, exclusive proof was given to Maxconsole that the 'hackers' had access to Xbox Live Source Code over 6 to 7 months ago, even tho Microsoft claims everything is OK and SAFE, is it really?Yesterday, a tweet by 'Reckz0r' pointed everyone to a 'pastebin' where he claimed he dumped all 48 million Xbox Live users and offered up a 6gb file as proof, but it was soon figured out the 'file link' was just an hoax and the actual story smelled very fishy at best, and Microsoft soon confirmed to 'GameSpot' that Xbox Live was NOT hacked, and everything is secure.Now this is not the first time a story broke with Xbox Live claiming to be 'hacked' and then later Microsoft claims it is all A-OK and keep gaming along, back in 2011 the newspaper SUN claimed there was a huge 'Xbox Cyber Fraud' and Microsoft was even doing an cover-up on it, later on Microsoft backtracked and said it was just all 'social engineering' and 'kiddies' were giving out their own personal info that was why they were getting 'hacked', and security is secure on Xbox Live, but just to make sure they added more protocols to made it harder to change your info, if you had been duped into giving out info to these so-called 'phishing' attempts.But today MaxConsole was contacted by an professional security auditor that of course wishs to remain anonymous and has offered up to us exclusive proof as 'screenshots' taken via 'TeamViewer' of an actual 'hacker' (which is rumored to be ex-employee) getting into the Xbox Live system via its 'Source Code', which using an actual Microsoft VPN connection, and this they were told all took place about 6 to 7 months ago, during an operation to 'steal money' from various companies, and since then all those involved have been raided by the FBI and Secret Service.So does this mean Xbox Live is really safe and secure? -- You decide yourself after looking at the 'pictures'!

We all now know Microsoft is blocking Used Games, but they claim 'Trade-In' will still work!So more information has appeared in the war against USED GAMES and how Microsoft plans to please everyone with their XBOX ONE scheme of DRM control over your 'game disc'Ever since it was reveal that XBOX ONE blocks the usage of your game disc on another system after its tied to your Live account and registered into the CLOUD using a one-time code, people have been asking well how does this work, what if I want to sell the disc!Well it seems Microsoft grand big brother scheme of a plan, is to have its cake and take a piece of it also, so in the future you will need to visit an OFFICIAL store that has agreed to Microsoft's ToS for 'Trade-In' and as such they will de-list your disc, give you what they want, cash or in-store credit, wipe the info from the CLOUD and put it on the shelf as an USED GAME, and in exchange for all this work, when the game is re-sold, a piece of cake will go to Microsoft, another piece to the original publisher, and store can keep whats left over.[QUOTE]You, the shopper, won't have to pay the activation fee for a used Xbox One game - the shop will. Therefore, the price you see on a second-hand Xbox One game in a shop is the price you'll pay to be able to play it.That's what a high-ranking UK industry source explained to me this afternoon.The reason there's all this confusion is because Microsoft hasn't decided what the activation fee will be yet. The ?35 figure reported in the story below sounds too high - perhaps it includes the shop's sale price as well.My source confirmed that part of that activation fee will go to a publisher and part to Microsoft.What this means for second-hand games is that Microsoft effectively controls how much they cost, because it controls the activation fee. Whether that fee will move up or down or diminish over time isn't clear. But it does mean second-hand games will probably be more expensive than they are now.My source didn't know what Sony was up to but doubts the PlayStation maker will do the same thing, not because it's angelic but because it lacks the kind of pricey infrastructure something like this requires.Original story: If you want to trade in an Xbox One game you will need to find a shop that has agreed to Microsoft's terms and is therefore connected to the Xbox One cloud.The game will be registered as traded in and will be wiped from your Xbox Live account. The shop can resell it for whatever price it likes but the game's publisher now takes a cut and so does Microsoft, a source-based MCV report revealed.[/QUOTE]After the news broke of how this 'trade-in' system going to work, the stock value for GameStop dropped like crazy!News-Source: This is how Xbox One game trade-ins will work, apparently (via) EuroGamer

48 Million Users LeakedSome key people were not 'happy' about Xbox ONE, so they decided to show Mr. Microsoft, whom is really the boss of the 'net, not the 'must connect once a day box', but the 'hackers' of the world uniteWorld famous hacker 'Reckz0r' that cracked into CNN websites and data stream, claims via a 'pastebin' today, and other tweets that Xbox Live has been 'PWNED!' all 48 Million Users Exposed, and offer up a 6gb file with all the details of his trip into Microsoft servers![QUOTE]Good morning, faggotsToday is a pretty fine fucking day, and a good day for the underground too, as I believe everything happens for a small tiny reason. Today, one of the biggest IT-companies known as Fagsoft, oh sorry, autocorrect-problems, I meant, Microsoft. They are often known as the biggest cocksuckers that history has ever witnessed. They released a faggotry-infested 1960's-machines inspired Xbox One! They said that they have created 30,000 servers just for this lovely moment. I believe, you better shut the fuck up before you get smacked the fuck up, billy.Today, Xbox Live has been brutally owned, in true-fashion. I shall not expose the vulnerability this time, as I do not want Benjamin Kuns Mejri masturbating all over my releases, oh and, Vuln-Labs, your advisories fucking suck.On the second hand, after the downfall of our well-known friends, Lulssec. sony was truly happy, sitting behind their chairs and ejaculating over pictures of Katy Perry. But I believe, that Microsoft should get a taste of some pure ownage too.I brutally owned Xbox Live a few days ago, but I decided to dump all the super-dooper precious data now.Oh and, If I get another stupid BBC-journalist talking crap on this lovely work-of-hand, thou shall be cursed.And most importanly; Microsoft, this is not a dick-sucking contest. You gotta stand the fuck up infront of cyberhackers. You seek help and therefore; You'll get owned.Lastly, Microsoft is a pest to humanity.Enjoy this lovely ownage for now.I have uploaded the entire credentials of every Xbox Live user in an nickname;email;password;joindate format, It contains nearly confidental-info on around 47 million users.[/QUOTE]News-Source #1: Xbox Live PWNED!
