Gears 2 cheaters get Gamerscore reset
Nelson’s reset some Gears 2 cheaters’ Gamerscores tonight, probably while punching the air and high-fiving the rest of the Live team.
“As you know, we are committed to keeping Xbox Live a safe and fair place to play for the more than 17 million active members,” said the exec.
“As part of our regular safety monitoring we have pinpointed a group of players who have unlocked specific Gears of War 2 Achievements through an unauthorized hack. Deliberate cheats like these are in direct violation of the Xbox Live Terms of Use and will not be tolerated.
“As I post this, we’ve begun taking steps to reset the Gamerscores of the offending players.”
Some days he doesn’t even take lunch, kids. Full thing through the link.

polygem: yes, some do.
They’ll just have to hope that the cheaters DO care and then stop doing afterwards…you know, despite there being no gamerscore there to reset anymore…
