Microsoft Hiring Hacker For Next Xbox Experience?
In a job listing on Microsoft's site for a Service Engineer, the company describes their ideal candidate as someone who tends to "void the warranty on every device" they own, and make "devices do things never intended by the manufacturer."
"We are looking for a Senior Service Engineer to help define the next generation of entertainment devices and services, and to help ensure our customers have the best possible experience, even when things go wrong. Well-qualified candidates have extensive experience in running web-based services, deconstructing interaction between client and servers (via a combination of logging, network traces, and so on); have a good understanding of C# and/or PowerShell, and excellent ability to communicate verbally and on paper."
They do make references to the "next generation of entertainment," so it is probably safe to say that this is related Xbox 720 in some form.
Or, this could just be a move by Microsoft to enhance its security for the Xbox 720. Piracy and hacks have become almost too easy to do on the Xbox 360, so it's easy to think Microsoft would want to recruit some fresh knowledge in this area.

FeetZwrq Hopefully this works and this console isn't very exploitable.
Yeah, it will be more enjoyable.
Both of you, just GTFO!! This is a website soley designed on console modding/hacking/exploits. Without these things, this site wouldn't exist. Btw, there has never been even 1 thing to be released publicly that wasn't exploitable.

What if the hacker betrays them and then leaks everything about the console :D
That would be an entertaining situation.

Legitgamer52 Would be nice for a hack proof console but I will never happen if someone can build it someone can break it /hack it
Whats the fun without any Exploits? Of course things like infections and online mods are not fair and ruin the fun for all.
