Aaaaaaaaaaand so it continues a rumour is debunked, good news comes... And people complain about that too.

It hasnt been debunked.

If this was the first answer we got regarding the situation, I might believe it. When multiple sources from Microsoft confirm different things, Im not gonna believe either. Ill wait until launch and we get stories from consumers.

I believe Major is talking about internet ban on games, not MS online ban on the system.  The 2 are very different.  If MS bans you from XBL, then you would not have access to your games after 24 hours.  Nothing about this has changed and I believe people are not thinking this through.  Even in the video he makes a small remark about if you are banned from multiplay then you cannot play in that game.
