Live
The world is in shock today as a polite American gamer is found on Xbox Live!This shockwave was felt around the world as a teenager from the USA didn't adhere to normal online gaming rules. He didn't insult anyone's sexual preferences, he accused no-one of being a Jew or a "fucking faggot", and he didn't even display his sexual insecurity by screaming "Get down bitch!" every time he gets a kill.
"It's unbelievable," said a representative of the American government. "The whole country feels let down by this individual. It's just not a normal day on Xbox live without being called a fag, a racial slur of some kind or Jewish. Even worse, he didn't use normal British insults!"
Our sources tell us these range from "Go eat some crumpets you British fag" to "Go brush your teeth you British fag" and other such hilarious and non-cliched phrases.
A wave of resentment has gone round the USA, with many suggesting that this polite gamer should be kicked out the country for not hating all foreigners. It seems to go against all beliefs of sportsmanship that one should actually be polite over the Inter-Net and not insult your fellow man at every opportunity.

But many see this as the way forward. It would be nice for once to have a friendly atmosphere in the arena of online gaming rather than being constantly insulted by rednecks and morons who seem to believe that killing someone once, in a virtual game, over the Inter-Net is the height of success.With this scandal running at full-swing, it seems unlikely we will see a conclusion in the short-term. Xbox Live claim to ban those who hurl such insults, but as we can all see they honestly don't give a damn. The only way is to actually listen to the reports players send in and actually do something about these mindless bigots. One final point is that most of these racist morons are the cheaters - particularly hypocritical when they insult you for losing after lagging your allies out of the game.
eBay is so, so great. My latest purchases have completed all the gaps in my C&C anthology, apart from Generals. I see no reason to get that game...

i concur!
american gamers without xenophobia are like sandwiches without cheese.
oh yeah, sorry about my lack of capitalisation. the shift key actually is broken; i had to remap the number row already.
it's very annoying.
i can't sarcastically type !!!1111 without the number pad.
nor can i type double quotes.
sorry, anyway.
Woah...
That's all I can say.
Except that (no offence to Westwood) those game cases SUCK. They don't exactly excite a casual gamer into buying them do they?
