I probably should clarify my terminology a bit....
There are three basic "classes" of XBox 360 consoles....
1. Retail Console - any Xbox 360 console you can buy in the stores. Only runs signed ... |

What does Microsoft and THQ have to lose if they take a beta or alpha version, remove achievements and Live access, and add a few lines to flag the Xbox for banning when it eventually connects?
