Earlier this week a purchased a new 37in HDTV for my room, and it is awesome. All of my Xbox games look great, and its an overall vast improvement from that old piece of junk that I had. I think that it has improved my gameplay slightly as well as my overall gaming experience. The first time that I played Call of Duty 4 on it resulted in one of my best overall performances in a long time. I played 3 hours of Search & Destroy while in chat with my friend(Riche) and didn't get under 10 kills each time. That happened on Monday. Now when I got home on Wednesday, I find out that I have been suspended from Xbox live. My suspension is supposed to only be for a day, but we all know how slow microsoft is. The funny thing is that I never said a word on Monday, I just stayed in a chat with my friend. But I noticed my rep drop 3 points. Odd right? We all know how this really played out. We played the same group of people, who were all in a party together for 2 1/2 out of the 3 hours. We blew them out every match for the better part of 3 hours. Now nost people would have been just a little pissed off by getting their arse handed to them for that long, and these fools were no exception. Everyone of those kids probably filed a complaint on me for having an "offensive" bio. This has also happened to two of my other friends several times. This is what happends to people on Xbox live for being good at a certain game. I know for a fact that it was them because I didn't play live on multiplayer any other day since I purchased my new TV on Saturday. Monday was the only day, and you see how that day went. Live is a joke, and microsoft will suspend anyone so long as you can get enough friends to file a complaint on someone. They don't even review each case, nor do they care. All of those pricks you see on live talknig crap out of their arse never seem to get suspended, but the players who are just good, always get screwed in the end. There was some justice though, seeing as my Xbox Live gold subscription expired Wednesday, the same day that I got suspended. I purchased a new Year of Gold when I bought my new TV, but I haven't used it yet, so in other words I'm not losing a day of gaming that I actually have to pay for. In the meantime I get to sit here and enjoy my new HD Channels & HDTV while I wait for my suspension to be lifted.It really doesn't bother me that I can't play online, since I can still play GTA IV, MLB 2K8, or just watch my new TV. The thing that bothers me is the BS reason for my suspension. This just proves that Xbox live & Microsoft is a joke.
