Losing the ability to be competitive.

[Aly]

Maybe I'm getting old or spending less time but It seems like I'm getting rubbish at every game.
I've had xbox live since 2003 and always remembered myself being good at nearly everything. Good on Halo's, Fifa's Forza's PGR's etc.

Hell we even won a White PSP for finishing in the top 10 leader boards on Test Drive Unlimited.

Now I go onto games and as hard as I try I'm crap at everything.
Seriously ready to bin my xbox as It seems like it's full of kids etc.

I remember when I was 13 or 14 on PGR play on Nurburgring speak to people who actually been there, nice people, seems full of kids these days, all the nice people don't talk because of the kids.

XBOX 360 got ruined when they changed to this Animated style dashboard.

Anyone else agree?

The "Nice People" Moved on as the kids came on?

I know what you mean, there used to be decent cunts on, but now its either whiny voiced americans or dicks from london who want to mumble and "rap" over their microphone.

That said, Ive actually met a few good folk online who I play regularly with and can actually chat to. Just harder to find than fuckwits LOL

Yeah i had xbox live when i was 12 and im not 18, it was on the original xbox thought. Just constantly playing halo 2. I will admit those days on xbox live will always be the best

[PSFurio1992]

I meant im now 18,

from London? well im from london and i dont act like a silly little cunt on mic so you might wanna think about what you say before you say it, all the whiney little bastards are either KIDS (from anywhere) or american dickheads. Most the london geezer's are telling them to STFU and stop being annoying.

Have noticed a couple of "Keyboard Crips" on from London, talking "dem tings" and "merked" had to laugh at these clowns. Not saying everyone who lives in London is a cunt ... just the ones who think they are gangsters or think they have musical talent


Played with a few folk from Essex I think they were clearly in their 20's but they really were cunts

[Samp]

Aly- I do agree about the animated dashboard of Xbox tbh i dont see the point in it

i get annoied by little kids on the game after a while i just put the headphones to one side and but plugged in so i cant hear them

But the banter is a good part of the game aswell.

Its not that you are getting any worse, its just kids, are spending alot more time playing games, and getting alot better at them...

COD, i was always good at, COD4, it was rare that i wasnt at the top of a game, then i stopped playing for ages, months.. went back on MW2, and it just became stupid, kids who had 20 days game play, when the game had been out 6 months, who clearly came in from school, and played untill they went to sleep, daily

[Barry123]

no problem hear. I'm a fucking Xbox god... and I'm being modest.

Theres one of the guys I know is like that, he's up to 29 days on MW2. To be fair, he is pretty amazing, Ive seen a few nuke killstreaks when Ive played with him. Think his biggest killstreak was 49.

But then you get gangsers like these

Full of young yanks thinking they are mental roaring n00b at you in their "high pitched my balls haven't dropped yet" voice, Does my head in!

[Morgan_VTR]

^^ +1 high pitched frequencies are mute with mute.

I always manage to pwn n00bs, when it comes to COD, I mash them one way or another, there's nutting on wisedom y0!

[dannyhall]

You're getting on abit.

I used to love Xbox, in my first 2 years got 18K G but hardly use mine anymore after going to the Elite, bores the fuck through me. Much prefer to go for a run/football/pub/weight training etc!

Cant beat Forza 3 though..
