Anyone who's played Halo 2, should know what I mean by the question - the vile language (racist, sexist and homophobic remarks during and in particular at the end of the game, when in the lobby) and endless threats and cursing. Why?
I'm assuming its because the game has guns and grenades (if you other games like sporting or racing games, usually they are civilised and can have a nice conversation while playing), but I'm still amazed at the number of people I come across that take it so seriously. As much as I love the gameplay in it, there are times when I just feel ashamed to be playing it, when you hear other players bragging about 'raping you' or that 'you're a retard'.
I do hope when Halo 3 comes out, something can be done to fix this problem (maybe improve the feedback system or something?) I have a dream that one day Halo 2 or 3 can be played by everyone from people of all walks of life, in particular, girls! As it is though, I don't blame them for avoiding the game.
