GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Wednesday, May 7, 2008

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.

One of my friends just got red ringed and they won't fix it because he modded his console. Of course he didn't. When they sent it back to him they sent him a list of reasons why it could be modded, one being, "Act of God".

what a piece of **** how the **** does someone get banned when they are in the private chat the whole time........neither one of us said a word to the people that we played we just straight up played.........what are we supposed to do let them win in case we hurt their feelings??????Thats not what gaming is about plain and simple which is why its not real........its just for playing the game if you suck you suck if you dont you dont cause there is always someone out there that will be better than you and thats just life............pansy ass ****ers just need to learn that they have to deal with that.......dont stay in a room if your constantly getting a beat down and then file a compliant against the guy that didnt speak???????????? wheres the logic.........**** it live is starting to turn into a place for lousy players to go on start being racial cause they cant get away with it in real life and ruin games for other people they should stupid test people before letting them loose on live............**** IT

Well Cory as I have said before, it is all of the stupid W**GERS on Xbox live that keep getting Espurs and Burger32 banned and as far as I am concerned

It is funny how Espurs and Burger32 get banned, but yet these stupid little W**GERS, that start more S**T on Xbox live then anybody else and yet they are still playing and Espurs and Burger32 get banned

What is wrong with that picture? Everything is wrong with that picture

My views on Microsoft and the Xbox live community are less favorable the last several months, then they ever were before, because I despise the fact, that they released a faulty product and everybody on my friend's list has gone through mutiple 360's and then good gamers like Espurs and Burger32 get banned for kicking somebody's A$$, while the W**GERS are overrunning Xbox live and ruining it

It is funny given how much money Microsoft has and yet they could not hire somebody that could design the 360 right and nobody that I know of at Microsoft lost their job over that

So as far as I am concerned Microsoft can go screw themselves

live is gay like that. my friend told me he kept killing someone over and over in TDM and he got suspended till the 31st for "harassment"

apparently cod4 on 360 is over populated by noobs
