Sure, we all understand this Fox bullshit isn't in an stretch of the imagination but TBH what do we matter. If parents decide to blow this out of proportion than it could get bad for microsoft. I don't want to see any "action" taken towards XBL or any games. As it stands M=17, so if you aren't 17 than you shouldn't be playing the game. If your parents deem you "mature" enough to play, than they best understand everything before making an uninformed decision. I work at EB Games, and when selling EVERY Mature game we must warn the parents, and not sell it to anyone under the age of 17 unless they are accompanied by a consenting parent. I've explained GTA to parents to have them say "oh he'll see it anyway" about their 10 and 7 year olds? I didn't see Fox mention the parents are just down right stupid? Sure their are things done and said on XBL that are politically incorrect, but at least we aren't as biased as the media trying to portray a negative picture about something for the shake of stirring people up and gaining some ratings.
Definitely, man. Don't misinterpret me, my main problem is that they single out Halo3 and xbox360. As if CoD4, GTA, and MGS4 are much better? Come on...
there's not much to say since everyone has already said exactly what im thinking ridiculous how they single out halo 3. someone should sue fox.
I don't care they picked on halo in particular, the fact they are complaining about online video games in general is bad.
What do expect from Bush and Cheney show..... Oh excuse me - Fox News. They are racist. They called Barack Oboma's wife his baby's mama. They are always outraged to hear about violence from anything. Like they think their Frustrated Old Xenophobe viewers were suprised to hear violence from a rap song. Heres a song about Fox News (States some valid facts): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_xECBcSEAk
Fox News Propoganda Here's acouple of gems from Fox News. The last one is my favorite with Bill Oreily. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-eyuFBrWHs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-OpIXfXKO8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4xiv6EyMsk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5qU4qudJYk
No no no, I was 100% agreeing with you. I understand why the singled out halo, it's the largest grossing and most played online game. Is it fair? No, but the most out of the loop parents have probably heard of halo. What I was saying is the real problem is that these out of the loop parents will now try to turn this into a "big deal". What I meant, I don't want BS stupid parent revolt causing microsoft to make some drastic and negative change to XBL. Parents are all well told what the Mature rating means. Most ignore it. Children under 17 do not have to play halo, the parents choose to let them. This is no ones fault but the parents.
Yep, halo 3 invented trash talk. Not like we had sports before that or anything. Who the hell is letting their 7 year olds play this game anyways? Whenever I'm in matchmaking and I hear a squeeker I always ask them where their parents are. Seriously, why would you buy this game for someone that young? And I wasn't exaggerating when I said 7 year olds, I've met kids as young as five on live. It's ridiculous.
Exactly. lemme go read the rating now. *picks up halo 3* Halo 3: Rated M-mature=17+ in age: Blood and gore Mild language and Violence. READ THE GODDAMN LABEL YOU ****S! my parents know this, and they dont care. even though im 13. my parents trust me, because im responsible. for god's sake. besides, in COD4, on almost every level, someones says: "Are you Shittin me?" FOR ****S SAKE FOX! READ THE LABEL TOO! And the wii, you can make your charecter look like anyone. hitler. sadamn jesus. and the PS3 lets you make your online usename have curses in it. this guys name i met was "Thatsuxurballsbitch" and another was named "****meharderplz" for god sake. bungie made some mistakes, but they dont suck THAT much. I HOPE THIS POST GOES TO FOX NEWS!
alot of the time i hear that is from little kids mostly because they dont know what they mean. Also it say in all xbox live games online not rated. And how do molests someone who you met on xbox live they would have to be retard to not hear the voice of a 40 year old. How the f**k do u get credit card info on xbox live. Also if a school is put on lockdown because of threats on xbox live that is retarded then the whole educational system would be shut down.
Are you guys kidding me? Have any of you ever played with me? (Some have, Furious, Matty and others) And the **** that comes out of my mouth, it's rancid really. Antisemitism jokes, ****** jokes? I don't stop. It's curse words, and lewd jokes. If you can't grow to just ignore them, you're obviously immature. I may be immature for saying them, but you're equally immature for not ignoring me.
Umm, I didn't read through all the pages. Actually only the first page but I was just wondering does everyone realize this happened almost a year ago? I mean yea Fox is a bit umm... well retarded suits this situations. But this is REALLY old news.
i thought one day it would come to this, the government hasn't got an excuse so they take the easy option, blame someone else, like it said at the end of the video, hit the mute button, that's why its there for, anyway people swear around the street, in school etc. so just because it happens more or you don't know the person doing it doesn't make it anymore worse Look at the kids they interviewed, they seemed fine and they play halo, the news twists stuff around all the time everybody knows that but the sad thing is parents chose to believe it. It isn't illegal to swear but they make it sound like its disease, that will infect you and force you into something your not, that's just stupid, its not real news, its just they pick on things they don't understand. The don't talk to strangers is just bullsh*t, like the kid stated in the video "what if they're not on" exactly, and not everyone's so stupid they would meet up with someone they just met, that stupid and wrong like the news these days
