"Over at Destructoid Jim Sterling wrote up a nice piece asking the question: Is Xbox Live society's mirror or merely a douchebag infested sewer? In the end he argues that Xbox Live is society itself (how that doesn't make XBL a mirror of such is beyond me), and while I agree with much of what he has to say, I think this only scratches the surface of imbecility on Xbox Live."
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
It's incredible how tough people are when there talking to you on a mic but when you see them face to face, there @$$ holes close so tight it's not even visible...
but it`s just a spin off of the INTERNET, which is the TRUE display of what society is/becoming.
Another one of these posts.
You're always going to see people with social dissorders acting out in places where they do not have to behave yourselfs. Theres no fear of being targeted as damaged goods online etc vs out in the real world.
XBL is a place with million of people that many wouldn't be around eachother on the street. 13 year old loud mouthed inner city street kids do not talk to racist trailer hill billies out in the real world what do you expect.
Everywhere I go on the internet and in society is perfect and everyone respects everybody else. It is only on Xbox Live do these "douchebags" exist.
(rolls eyes)
And way to insult every 360 owner on Live who does respect other gamers. I play with a lot of them and if I start hearing crap they are muted and never played with again. The 360 has some great tools for muting and blocking these aholes, but you have to use them.
Who is this nobody website anyway? I will be sure to send a message to all my fellow douchebag 360 owners(according to this website) to not visit or acknowledge this lame site.
Oh yea, everytime I'm on xbox live, which is vary rarely theres always that one Dumb F*ck who just likes f*cking around with you.
