Warning over 4Chan Xbox One prank
- oracuk 13y agoThe iOS7 waterproof upgrade did make me laugh.
- malka 13y agoMicrosoft's fault for letting user the possibility to brick their console. Does it void the warranty ?
- jbrooksuk 13y agoIt's not though. That combination allows developers to buy an Xbox One and still use it for development and actual gameplay.
- 6d0debc071 13y agoWould've been fairly easy to request the ID at the start and refuse to perform the operation if you didn't have a valid one. Heck, that seems the obvious way to do it - less to execute if they fail the ID check.
- jbrooksuk 13y agoTrue. There is definitely more Microsoft can do to resolve this, your solution being the easiest way to implement decent security.
- 6d0debc071 13y agoI think statutory warranty in the UK is generally interpreted as six months of 'fit for purpose.' Since it wasn't advertised as being able to play 360 games I'd imagine it's not covered. Though IANAL.
- BrechtVds 13y agoProps to Microsoft for opening up the devkit to everyone. It's not their fault that some people just love screwing other people over.
- freehunter 13y agoMy question is, how did anyone find out this combination? Is this part of the documentation that anyone can get, or is there a rogue Xbox developer out there sharing this information with 4Chan trolls?
