Adam Sessler on Xbox Live Bigots

Jun 12th 2008 9:46PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Yeah this is some "Xbox focused site"... as long as by "focused" you mean "insulting". Honestly, I don't remember Rockstar hoisting their detractors on a pedestal every time they went on a rant about how evil and deplorable their GTA franchise is, and yet this is no less than the second time that Sesslers gets made out to be the voice of reason for... wait for it... making Xbox Live out to be a horrendous service full of deplorable miscreants.

Yes thank you everyone at Xbox360Live for focusing on and applauding the unbelievable bias that Sessler has brought by focusing on and examining something that would be considered common sense and obvious for anyone who has played an online game.

But hey, I guess you guys just want to be on the bandwagon when he gets successful, because appealing to the moral majority in the continued bigotry of anything that offends you and the true belief that your own personal culture should be exemplified in all parts of society and demonizing video gaming culture is obviously something you want to get behind.

I'm taking the new enlightened approach of reading comments, so I'm going to discount everything you said, not respond to any of it, and call you names and assume I'm better than you, just because you were swearing.

Taking a deficit view of people based on them saying something you might find offensive is the new cool thing.

No man, that's the complete opposite of anti-social. Instead of whining and complaining about things that are completely and utterly out of your control you took charge, made friends, and you are enjoying a fantastic service the way it was meant to be played.

See people - moby has your solution right here.

Yeah, you're right Xav I could be far more enlightened like you and Sessler if I'd just get out of this dark age of tolerance for differences on how people communicate on online games and take up the banner of intolerance and futile complaining!

What a fool I've been for being so indifferent to something so common! I should have been whining and gnashing my teeth about it!

Sorry those American urban expressions offended you so much Xav, I know you englightened folks don't need to understand or tolerate those kinds of differences in a community - we all just need to pull together to hate it all.

No I think the point is that since it happens everywhere why is this the SECOND video where Sessler calls out the Xbox Live community for it?

And it's not really a problem, unless you think censorship is a viable solution. I mean, you can sit here and tell me it's a horrible problem all day, personally I don't run into it near as much as everyone claims and when I do I don't go running away in tears just because people say bad things on the internet.

I like how it is inferred that I'm obviously "part of the problem". Fact is I just don't get upset about it. I don't care what people say in an online game. Complaining about it and doing cutesy videos isn't going to fix it. The people that swear and cause this problem want the attention and they want to be antisocial. Honestly, I think the greatest irony is that it is the people complaining about it that do the most to promote it as the antisocial evil that makes it seem so cool.

How about dick riding Sessler? That work better for you?

Study finds that Red beats Blue in online games

I've always felt that blue had an advantage in Halo, because man of the indoor maps seem to have colors that make blue just a little harder to see.

Well he singles out Xbox Live... so it doesn't seem to me that he's making that message of "everyone" very clear.

Well I don't know how long my comment will be here. Joystiq had this same article and they censored all my posts regarding it, even though I never swore or broke any terms of posting.

Wow, Sessler giving more negative attention to the Xbox 360 (I'm shocked at such a bias... no not really) and here the fans are cheering him on and sucking him off for doing so.

Wow, are you guys really this starved for attention?

This is rampant in any online community (Counter-Strike anyone?) and if the other gaming systems had legitimate online play for as long as the Xbox 360 they'd suffer from the same problems.

You know every once in a while Blockbuster will do something really stupid with the price of a game.

Scores are worthless. Nobody can ever agree what a "good" score is. You find the same problem in education. Give someone's precious snowflake a 78% on a test and prepare for the whining from the parents. The same for game scores. Give a game that a large number of people love an 80% and prepare for a flame war.

So basically what I'm saying is stick to the written word.
