Why Xbox Live is so great...

In all the time that moron spent arguing he could have gotten up and poured his own chocolate milk. Still, the xbox live community never ceases to amaze me. :lol
And what is up with that clan match excuse? All he was doing was shooting his teammate the whole time. That kid is an idiot.

Why do I gotta turn it off? Why? (BLAM BLAM!) WhY?? WHY?? (BLAAAAAAM)
Pretty funny stuff. :lol :lol :lol
This reminds me of that kid in the Simpsons who wont share Bonestorm with his sister. "Get two, I'm not sharing with Katlyn!"
Mom:"I'm glad my son is not like that."
Brat: "Shut up Mom!"

This is my favorite part. and then later on becoming so unglued by the mountain dew/chocolate milk deceit and it's profanity insanity.
or maybe there was a bee in the room earlier.
edit - mountain milk and chocolate dew would be strange beverages.

Got the privelage of seeing this over at Teamxbox yesterday, the video is friggin hilarious but at the same time what kind of parent lets a kid get away with talking like that to them?
Thank god he isn't the norm when it comes to Xbox Live, but it would be kind of funny to hear him whine like a baby playing against him.

I thought it was funny but I couldnt help wondering if it was a bit staged. I liked the other guy focusing in on the guys face near the end.
if this is a genuine thing that happened then I gotta say that kid needs a good ass whooping and his mom should be first in line.
everyone at GAF ought to send that kid a friend invite and attach a voice message screaming "why cant i have my chocolate milk?! why?!"

Don't be so sure that it was staged. My wife used to work at a private school, and she could not BELIEVE the way that some of these kids treated their parents. (Elementary level). Some of the kids would just treat their parents, especially their moms, like complete dirt. They would even hit their mothers! And the parents would just soak it up, and be like "oh I've done something wrong to make you angry, I'm sorry... we'll buy you a toy on the way home."
That being said... shit... DISCIPLINE. I mean gimme a break...
"I want some motherfucking chocolate milk" = Xbox and games in the trash.
Nah, thats not true. I would have lost it WAAY before that.

Thats awesome, you get to listen to some crazy shit if you play the right person. Like for instance some dude was beating his kid in the background for crying while I was playing him in ESPN Football. The kids arguing with their parents/brother are pretty common. My all time favorite was the guy who talked and sounded exactly like Jay from Jay and silent Bob.
though Ive never experienced it first hand I have heard of the way some kids are today and how they arent afraid of any type of authority figures including their parents. There are some people in my family that work in schools or with kids in some manner and theyve all at some point told me about how bad kids are today.
come to think of it, I know I was playing some game on Live one day and my brother got pissed at my moms friend and was gettin ready to beat his ass when my mom started shouting at him and calling me to come stop him. I dropped the headset and controller and went into the living room. not sure how much of it anyone heard but I can certainly relate to people that have had fights or whatever break out in the middle of a game.
people who do impressions on Live are usually pretty funny as long as they dont over do it. I think with all the FPSs, Ahnald is the most impersonated person on Live. "FOLLOW ME TO DA CHAPPAH!"

Spare the rod... Maybe that's a bit extreme but I'd have to say that one of the first lessons I'll have with my children involving both life and online gaming is some measure of sportsmanship and manners.
Unless it's some insanely critical juncture in the match I'm not often pissed if one of my team mates says "Gotta get the phone real quick" or something like that, I know I've had to do it before. It's just the understanding that life happens outside of a game. Pretty basic but perhaps not commonly understood stuff.
The two things I tend to say to people in Halo 2 are "Hey Baaaaby!" when I'm pulling them off of their vehicle. or "Aww you outta time!" if I manage to run them over.

It's bad manners and on-line etiquette no matter how you cut it. If you play on-line, you need to plan your time and block out a time where you can sit down and play mostly uninterrupted short of an emergency.
In FFXI many Japanese players dislike playing with North Americans because
a) They leave frequently on phone/bathroom breaks
b) like to multitask and do stupid things that gets everyone killed
c) poor time management. A party takes 30 minutes to form, another 20 to get to a camping spot. And some retard says "oh sorry, got to go" so he just wasted 50 minutes of 5 other people's time for their own convenience.
The kid in the Xboxlive video needs to be disciplined, but I find the undisciplined and easy going behavior of many NA on-line players a bit too lax and it offends many JP players who want to maximize their time on-line because they actually have jobs, school and exams and can't be wasting an hour a day having their time wasted.
I dont know what game your playing. Japanese partys take longer to form because they are so goddam picky. I have actually had a group sit there waiting for a ninja for over an hour. We had 5 members ready to go the entire time and any other tank would have worked. And the phone/bathroom breaks? Are you kidding me? Do they consider once every hour or so frequent? There are plenty of shitty japanese players, its not like being japanese automatically makes them superior.

If you have 5 NA players in a 6 man group and each of them take a break in the hour (and believe me they always take breaks one after another) it could easily be 20-30 minutes of dead time. Even you only have 2 frequent phone/bathroom break takens in your party, its easily 10 minutes of extra dead time in a 60 minute hour. And their timing is usually horrible.
Asking for a break right before the last (maximum exp chain), or simply not saying anything to the group and going AFK while the puller has pulled in a monster.
It happens all the time, and I always see it happen with NA players. I'm sure it has to do with maturity and probably the worst offenders are kids like the one in the Xboxlive video.
As for JP parties being picky, yes we are, but if a group doesn't work, it doesn't work. It's better than the -1000 exp parties that happens when people try to make a party when there are no right jobs and the tank and white mage end up dying over and over again.
My mom would've thrown the Xbox and broke it.
But yeah, I've encountered kids like this before. You go over to spend the night at their house or something because they're your friend from school. You stay up late playing videogames and being loud. Their parents yell, and since your just a guest in the house you just go silent and try to sleep while your friend argues and cries to his parents like this little bitch.
I remember feeling so uncomfortable at friend's houses just because they treated their parents so much different than how I treated mine. This video makes me feel guilty all over again, I should call my mom.
Everyone call your mom.

I'm not exagerrating, nor do I imply every NA player is like this.
BUT... it is always an NA player that displays this kind of thoughtless 'me first' behavior. Which leads to the point that playing on-line games require a block of time where people can expect to be reasonably undisturbed, just like if someone is planning to study, or to work on something that requires concentration.
I think the problem of applying the ethics of single player or non on-line multiplayer games to the on-line world is not a good idea.
This of course was in response to The Guivre making this comment
I feel this kind of attitude leads to the player forgetting to consider the fact that there are real people in his game who are being hindered by this easy come easy go on-line attitude. Of course, some games will be less affected than others. I did bring up FFXI because in such a case, it matters a lot when a player holds this kind of attitude towards his on-line gaming time.
you guys read some of the news articles on bungie.net? funny shit

There's 24 hours to a day. Set time aside to play games and not use 'life' as an excuse to make other people's lives miserable.
Nowhere did I say you can't ask for a break or log off in an emergency, but from my experience, the very kind of attitude you hold tends to give players a license or excuse to be total jerks on-line when it comes to their on-line manners pertaining to wasting other people's time or making the enjoyment less than optimal because they decide to stop playing mid-game due to 'life issues'.
When there's a consistent pattern of such behavior in a large minority of a specific group of players, I'd have to guess that it has to do with attitude over 'life' issues, since there are plenty of other players on-line who can be active and responsive as promised and not be inconsiderate to their team mates.
It's not a lot to ask really.
I haven't even seen this. I will have to wait till I get home.
From what I am reading though, it sounds like a kid or kids need their ass(es) tanned. I never spoke to my parents that way and the single greatest reason is probably because I knew my father would beat my ass till it was red and stinging.
That's the problem with my generation as parents. NO DISCIPLINE. This is the result of it is all.
My son most certainly won't ever talk to me that way, or if he does - it will be just once.
