Halo 2 Used to Sniff Out Mods

Posted by Zonk on Sunday November 14, 2004 @10:07AM from the surely-a-covenent-plot dept.

TexasDex writes "C-Net tech news is reporting that users of Halo 2 who have installed mod chips are being banned from the X-box Live forums. It is unknown specifically how the Halo 2 game finds out the console is modded, Microsoft will only say in the X-box live Terms of Use that "Xbox Live may only be accessed with an unmodified [...] Xbox video game console.'" In related news, the New York Times (registration required) has a quickie interview with the folks behind Red Vs. Blue about changes Halo 2 bring to the series.

Oh, so they haven't stopped doing it since we were told about this four days ago on Slashdot?

Thanks. I'll look forward to the next update on Wednesday to see if they're still banning modded Xboxes or not.
