Microsoft Banning Consoles For GTA V Leaks
One of the videos contained his gamertag and Microsoft have quickly dealt a blow and have banned his entire console from Xbox Live, meaning he’ll have to buy a new one.
The Rockstar policy on posting copyrighted material from its games is very clear:
Pre-Release Footage: No pre-release leaked footage of any kind: Any posting of in-game footage from leaked copies of the game prior to its official release date will be taken down, regardless of how the game was obtained. This includes “early unboxing” videos.
Obviously we will not be linking to the videos since they could be considered to contain spoilers, but what do you think of the swift wielding of the ban hammer? Has justice been dealt or is it overkill from Rockstar and Microsoft?

Frog If he didn't leak it, he'd of been able to play it all week :D
He still has the ability to play it? Just because he's console banned doesn't mean he can't play offline.

I have no problem with the banned...especially stupid mistakes that identifies your gamertag. Never post something that violates policies (etc. images or videos) that can be link back to you.

He's stupid for releasing his gamertag on the vid, but I think Microsoft should have account banned him instead.

Metro_2033 LOL Ban everyone Microsoft! Ban all the hackers n modders while you're at it, I honestly hope one day Microsoft comes to this website and finds all the hackers on here and bans all of them.
OT: If you leak GTA V you can burn in hell.
There are some people that appreciate the leaks... that is of course, why you do it.. Oh and telling someone to burn in hell over leaking a game is a bit OTT

LiaAxe-LOST- Damn, that seems a bit harsh but if you think about it. What if someone just got their game early? Like a legitimate copy?
I guess its their own fault for paying more to get it early. They could just wait the 5 days. Its not that long.
Yah, considering they've already waited years for the next upgrade in the series, 5 days isn't too much to ask for.
Waiting five more days would be too logical. Logic is frowned upon unfortunately.
