Two owners of a los Angeles game store and a third man face up to five years in prison on charges filed Monday in a federal copyright infringement case for selling modified first-gen xbox game consoles, prosecutors said. The modifications allowed the machines to play pirated video games, they said.
During the ivestigation, undercover agents with U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement paid $265 to have a modification chip, a hard drive and 77 pirated games installed on a xbox, according to the criminal complaint.
The defendants will have to appear in U.S District Court in L.A late January.
