Microsoft says, "Xbox console ban is permanent"

The recent banning of users who had modified their Xbox consoles to play pirated games may have been banned permanently from using their Xbox consoles and may have to buy a new console if they want to continue playing online. In an interview to the BBC, the firm said,

"Users of banned Xbox consoles can recover their profile to another, unmodified Xbox 360 console to resume their Live service"

"The banned console will be unable to connect to Xbox Live."

It was mentioned however that the banned consoles will still be able to work offline.
