Halo 3 Banning Scar

Microsoft and Bungie Studios have demonstrated just how serious after they reportedly banned a Halo 3 fan from Xbox Live until the 31st of December 9999.
According to Gamespot, gamer ‘Scar’ was banned from Xbox Live after he managed to get his greedy little paws on the Halo 3 Epsilon test. Scar posted this sorrowful news on the Halo-focussed modding site Se7ensins.com along with a photo of his Xbox Live ban notice.
Apparently after being given the Epsilon build by a friend, he ‘played it for maybe six hours or so alone’ before being booted off every time he tried to load it. He discovered the ban when he tried to sign in the next day.
Scar, who unsurprisingly wants to keep his real name to himself, does not have any plans to appeal the ban. He commented “Other people I know that had this happen to them at the same time as me called support and had no luck,” he rued. “I know of at least 10 others that downloaded it and got banned till 9999.” Imagine that, after cheating Microsoft they don’t want to give you any support.
