Microsoft seeks legal action against Xbox One leaker – report

4.7
Xbox One rumours went crazy this week, thanks to a tipster called ntkrnl. From Forza Horizon 2 and Crackdown 3, to Titanfall-branded consoles and everything between, nothing was off the table, and Microsoft is now seeking legal action.

Here’s a recap of everything ntkrnl leaked:

Halo 2: Anniversary heading to Xbox One on November 11
Crackdown 3 coming 2016
Halo 5 delayed?
Forza Horizon 2 could hit Xbox One in September at 1080p
White Xbox One disc-less console

Kotaku has been digging into the matter and has reported that Microsoft is now seeking legal action to identify and bring in the informant. As the site suggests, this doesn’t mean that any of the above is true, but we’ll update you as we hear more.

Rather this guy is one big fat creative liar, or he's trying to be Microsofts "Edward Snowden" for some reason.

If Halo5 is delayed, i am going to be sad. Even though it was never confirmed for 2014 in the first place.

Microsoft is on their backs right now, they have lost a good chunk of their consumer base. They are losing and they know it.

Oasis Serves them right. Leaking info like that is just unfair, and if true, can cost companies millions.

Hope they catch the little internet warrior and show them who's boss.


May i ask how they could lose millions?


A rival company could steal ideas, sell for less, and in the process take potential customers away.


Sell for less what? games that are still in development? or what disc-less PS4? cmon to **** use your brain sometimes...


Well first of all, yea a disc-less PS4 could be an idea for them now, who knows. Second, people will now wait to buy an Xbox if they know they could save $100 in 5 months. Making Microsoft lose money. So yea, Millions could be a definite possibility.


I'm glad someone else has a basic grasp on business. Thing is, I know that person that disagrees with me doesn't actually believe his own words, hence the need to swear at me.

Well... MS are taking action, must mean something above is true... probably something relating to MS themselves (white xbone?) over the games...

I don't see why it has to be leaked, why doesn't MS just come out with it lol. They know people are going to try and leak it.
