Wrong thread.

I find it almost hard to believe that this was an actual bug, not a secret hidden backdoor.

I mean, what programming error could possibly lead to accepting a string consisting only of space characters as valid password?



string pass;
cin>> pass;
if (strpos(pass," ") !== false){
ValidateXBL();
}



I guess now Lord Lardmer will have to change the combination of his luggage too.

what were the four free games?

My daughter figured out how to bypass my Vita's security code a year ot two ago. She just selected "reset everything to default" or whatever when she couldn't figure out my code. Then she had access to all of my stuff (except digitally downloaded games, I think) again. I made a thread about it back when.

I wonder if that still works or did Sony patch it.

Looks like one is PVZ: garden warfare. Others  could be Forza, Kinect Sports Rivals, a sports game, Need For Speed or some Lego Game.



changing the title to appease a couple won't change the fact that this kid hacked xbox live.

LOL.

Cool the kid found a trick.
