Halo 3 Epsilon [alleged] thief banned from Xbox LIVE… until the year 10,000!

by JW

So, there was a guy with the gamertag ‘Scar’ who somehow got his hands on the Halo 3 Epsilon Beta. So rather than playing it in secret, gushing about it’s awesomeness only to his closest of friends, this guy posts about it on the INTERNET!

Hello? Dude? The internet… yeah, it’s EVERYWHERE! My 90 year-old grandma surfs the damn internet!

Either way, Microsoft found out that it was him, and banned him from Xbox LIVE… until the year 10,000!

(Thanks Mark for the image)

UPDATO MAGNIFICO!
If you thought being banned until 10,000AD was bad enough, I have something else that will either make you even more sad for this guy, or will make you laugh his ass off — he had a gamerscore of 61,000!

UPDATO MAGNIFICO 2.0!
Ok, so apparently Mr. Scar here didn’t steal Halo 3 Epsilon, or somethin’. I’ve seen him on just about every message board refuting this claim — it doesn’t matter, dude. You still got your ass banned until long after we’ve colonized Mars. The story isn’t so much about the fact that you got your hands on Epsilon as it is that Microsoft gave you the eternal ban hammer. Suck it up, and move on.

    That dude got EXACTLY what he deserved. He didn’t get the game by legal means and got caught.

    If any of us stole something we’d get punished if we got caught why shouldn’t this loser.

    Besides it’s his own fault for sharing this with a big mouthed idiot.

    Ok, apparently we got the story wrong. I’ve taken the time to update the story to include what we already knew: Some dude getting to play Epsilon isn’t the story — getting an 8000 year ban IS.
