Hackers Vs. 100

1v100

The flagship game of Microsoft’s new ‘Primetime’ channel on the Xbox 360, 1 vs. 100, has been infiltrated by hackers it would seem.  The problem was highlighted when players with ‘Dangerous’ at the start of their gamertag were ‘the one’ four times over.

Most of the gamertags used have very little gamerscore meaning that they were fresh accounts set up for this purpose.  Below is a youtube video of a voice message sent from ‘DefensiveOreo‘ to somebody that was playing with them last Saturday.

For those of you that can’t make out what’s being said it, it goes something like this:-

“It’s cause me and my mates are hackers. We like, you know, how to fix it. So erm, if you ever see anyone with Defensive before there name then it is my or one of my mates. We’ve been The One and in the Mob, four times as The One.”

According to the rules you can only be ‘The One’ once per season, so these guys have definitely found a flaw in the system, lucky the games still in the beta testing phase eh?  It is my understanding that they are exploiting the system that allowed me to be in ‘The Mob’ on my first ever game (but never since!), which is obviously done to entice you back to play more.

MS have not yet responded to the claims, but we’ll be sure to let yuo know as soon as they do.
