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?

Phycho Jesus crist people can't wait just 5 more days?
I know it's like you've been waiting years for the game, 5 days isn't going to hurt.

I planned on streaming this weekend. If I play on an offline account not connected to live will I be safe?

BBmodz I understand that they don't want spoilers shown and that's understandable cause I wouldn't want a game I spent 1000's of hours on to be spoiled 5 days before the release.
For the console ban I think maybe that was a little far.. I would understand a console ban till the 17th but I think they took it a little far there.
Don't lie, you'll spend most of those house just roaming around in multiplayer, not immersing your self in the ~10 hour story, not sure what type of story this game will have other than what we've seen in trailers but it looks just like more free roam missions than a compelling story ( I could be wrong ).
Either way, leaks happen all day errryday, it was bound to happen, just avoid the spoilers, let these people play their game, I'm sure most won't get banned.
