this why I stop playing online....I hate online play....
I felt the same way for a while till I got the 360. . . Not nearly as bad a problem on Live, and it's easier to find games that aren't full of cunts, or at least silent ones.
Halo 3 also allows you to mute individual players, which is a superb feature that would be handy in real life. Gives me great pleasure to think of some idiotic arsehole yelling dreadful things down the mic and no-one hearing or caring. And then he gets shot in the left nostril 252,792 times.

I think a lot of people are confused by or don't know about the system of holding the d-pad to open what space marines probably call 'the com channel', and give up on the headset when no-one responds.
I think it's hilarious, personally.
*blip* BALL-ACHE MOTHERFUCKER! *blip*
But seriously, what is it about Halo 3 of all online experiences which makes one swear so much more?
I had an american swearing his 13 year old way through a game of Catan the other night. So much so the other players ganged up on him. Still, at least he wasnt SINGING!

13 year old American kids that constantly talk about how good they are at killing and how gay everyone is and they still manage to shoot you in the head despite you running at them after popping a grenade in their groin and shooting an entire assault rifle magazine into their head
people that sing all the way through and general exisit to be the biggest pain in the arse they can.
Students doods who find it really funny that everything is Ghay and that their like find it funny everyone is taking it so seriously despite you unloading a shotgun in their face and they no die (cheating scum.)
And I think the general level face off combat is all about getting the upper hand.
i suppose it will always cause people to scream 'eat shit and die' 8 times when charging towards each other like foaming bulls on pogo sticks doing axe like movements with a shot gun and farting grenades in all directions

That's one bit about the controls I don't like; you have to take your thumb off the left analogue pad (and therefore stand still) just to say something.
With the amount we talk during GoW matches, I'd never move in Halo 3 online.

Mmmnnn. It cuts down on people making fools of themselves - so why? Maybe as a result of the beta there'll be an option to have it either/or - it seems misguided at present.
Also, I think that assigning melee to a button is crap, too - why not click-clicky anologue or one of the bumpers? Meh. Anything that requires you to take your thumbs off the analogue sticks is just bol.
Green Beret ehhh Rush'n A... looks (and sounds) great but the Xevious Title... i'm a big fan of retro games of the first hour but they should leave some arcade titles in the trashcan. My award for the most boring Title of the 360 Live Arcade. (sorry to all Xevious fans)
you know what guys. I am a huge fan of the 360. but I have to vent here .. I have to get it off my chest. When I bought the 360 I personally looked forward to all the retro games on Live arcade. Imagine my surprise when I played the games from digital eclipse (Foundation 9) ... such as Pacman / Galaga and many more retro games on XBLA. Do I need to say how bad they suck? they are horrible! they are not true to the original, graphics horrible, worse than originals, controls, very important, stink, and I was so sad to see all these old classics ripped off and ruined like that.
That said! Xevious is an awesome game, and hopefully we have something good waiting for us
and Xevious
my xbox is in some greasy engineers hands.... hurry up!
