The latest Xbox news recently broke that we will see Xbox banning third party controllers in an effort to stop unlicensed controllers from being used. With Xbox banning third party accessories certain important accessibility controllers as well as fighting game controllers will stop working.

Obviously this is probably aimed at Call of Duty cheaters now that the Xbox Activision deal is complete. With COD cheaters being a huge problem, Xbox may be taking aim them, but it is turning off well known adapters and controllers.

Most notably the Brook Wingman XB 2 Converter and the Brook XB Fighting board won't work any longer which means other controllers like he Quadstick FPS game controller will stop working. This change is obviously well intended to stop cheating, but the unintended consequence is blocking legitimate controllers. What should Xbox do?
