Microsoft continues its war against enemy solders, with Xbox Live’s Major Nelson confirming the latest round of shock and “Aww, I’ve been disconnected!” banishment. “In our continued effort to keep gameplay safe and secure for our community of more than 14 million members,” he said, “Microsoft has taken action against a small percentage of Xbox 360 consoles that have been illegally modified in order to play pirated games.”

This small percentage of players, who in their actions voided their Xbox 360 warranties and breached Xbox Live’s terms of service, have been booted off the console’s online platform. Clearly, the ideal way to be a pirate in Microsoft’s realm is to slap an eye patch on your NXE avatar.
