1. racist things

2. screaming

sure the xbox 360 has loads of great games butthis ruins the xp alot y does xbl have so many idiots? maybe mircosoft should implement mature servers or sumthing. wut does everyone else think?

Boy, it sure is a shame that we can't keep people from saying things that offend us... if only we could magically only hear what we want to hear...

But seriously man, get the hell over it. The world is full of jerkoffs and XBL is in the world, therefore XBL is full of jerkoffs.

Just turn down your mic volume if they really bother you.

Exactly. There is nothing that can prevent you from coming across someone offensive. At least it's easy to mute them and avoid playing with them ever again.

Inmature? Subliminally embarrassing grammar mistakes ftw!

You're gonna have to get used to stupid people, mute them, or report them. Luckily, XBL gives you those options.

Have you ever played WoW?

Plus, you could easily just mute everyone.

You do realize that PC games consist of more than just FPS's? First of all FPS's have the least amount of communication from what I have noticed. Most communication outside of friend's is just simple internet terms such as "gg". Your very limited experience in PC games is very evident. I have run into more idiots in PC games than on XBL. WoW crushes XBL as the most retarded community you will ever stumble into. Everquest, Starcraft, Warcraft 3, and yes even XBL. The point is that the world is full of stupid people and if you give a stupid person a microphone and anonymity they will abuse it.

If you don't want to run into idiots, then I suggest you kill yourself, as the world is mostly comprised of morons, and you'll meet them wherever you go.

You need to develop a large friends list of people you enjoy playing games with, or party up with people you liked playing with during a match.

Hardly difficult.

It's not like everyone playing PC gaming online is a Saint, please. The world is full of A-Holes. Live has them, online PC gaming has them - they're everywhere.

Get over it.

Actually it might be full of jerks... (if you believe that) because you have to pay for it.

Because you pay you feel like you have the right to do what you want... I mean you did spend money on it...

Did you know that you can mute those little kids during the 3 seconds that you're waiting to respawn after you die? It's pretty simple, and it keeps you from going insane (well, at least in Halo 3)

How come I always see threads like this, but I have encountered only one real a** before on XBL? It was just some guy on Madden, but he was a funny a**. I never hear any of this racism stuff. :? I've played all of the popular games, but I just don't hear it.

There's ways to take care of it, if you don't like to take advantage of the tools that the developer has given you, that's your own fault truly.

It is annoying, and yes it does ruin the experience too. however you have the ability to take action against it too. Personally, during my Halo 3 spree, I've not found many immature arrogant people in most of my matches. So who knows... but I always leave the lobby after I finish a match.

you fail majorly. nice try, though. but, it is true though that PSN is probably just as bad as Live. ive been playing online with extremely racist and crude people as well.
