It looks like Microsoft is cracking down hard for those found using emulators on the Xbox console lineup.

triprotic, Looks like this is an issue for retail mode only, if you’re using developer mode to run emulators you shouldn’t have issues:
“Players could pay a one-time fee to get a developer mode attached to their console. From there, you could gain access to emulators. In fact, it looks like that option is still readily available. You will lose out on features made only for retail mode, which could mean going back and forth between the modes.”

triprotic, angielski I mean, if you want to do emulation there’s better/cheaper ways to do it than an Xbox, but at least the option is there in some form.
CmdrShepard, angielski I totally agree but it just reminded me of a discussion I had with someone here a couple weeks ago where they talked about the “great advancements” Microsoft has made in the console space compared to Sony and this was one of their primary arguments.
ampersandrew, angielski To be fair, is there any amount of extra money you could pay on PlayStation to do the same thing?
rafoix, angielski Theres better but there really isn’t cheaper. An Xbox Series S is $300. That’s a controller and a very relatively good APU even if it’s artificially limited.
I have a MiSTer FPGA and it definitely cost more than $300 and it cannot emulate anything newer that PS1 or Sega Saturn.
mp3, Sounds like a bad idea in general to play cracked/emulated games online in the first place…
CmdrShepard, angielski It sounds oike people aren’t getting banned for playing games, they’re getting banned for using an emulator without paying Microsoft a vig.
Knusper, Ah, yes, the good old you-bought-a-full-fledged-computer-but-you-don’t-actually-own-it switcheroo.

Itty53, angielski Honestly, leave it on Reddit. That sub was just ASUS and Corsair in a trenchcoat. I can do without the commercials.
peter, It was always surprising to me that they were allowing this and it seemed like a matter of time before they would come round to putting a stop to it. Ah well
