QuoteUnfortunately, the hardware ban makes the XDK a large paperweight that will never be able to play games.

Would have been nice if you explained what this means exactly ?

Microsoft bans these devices from online play if they are detected on the network. The device itself also enforces this ban, preventing even offline games from working.
