ioumac Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I am 30 and married and was curious if there any other late 20 or 30 somethings in the same situation i am in. Limited time and don't want to waste their online time with 10 year olds. Post your xbox gamertag here if you want a good experience while gaming.

Public Enemy #1 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I'm 20, but I am a mature person who hates playing with whiny little 12 year olds. Just asking though, do you have XBox Live? I ask because it would make this post of mine rather pointless if you do, as I have a PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post your xbox gamertag here if you want a good experience while gaming.Mine JMAN1977 I would suggest graduating from Console Junior High. I'm glad I did a long time ago. There are far too many immature/young players on these toys and I can't be bothered by them. It wears on you after awhile. I can't even imagine going online and hearing "yo got pwned, dog."

I couldn't agree with you more. It nearly traumatized me. My sole on-line experience comprised of threats to firebomb my house and to "'own' my anus with a pitchfork." Suffice it to say, it was an experience I sha'n't soon forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOath Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 41 here. PS3:TheOath 360:Up To The Roof I will have both versions because I have friends that only have one system and its easyer for me to buy two copies of the game then for them to get a new console. I am curious on how Home will turn out on the PS3. TheOath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongDarkBlues Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 (edited) 28 here, but the racist homophobic 14-year-olds who'd rather glitch than play (ie, half this forum) have ruined Live for me, I found I was spending more time silencing idiots and reporting douches than actually playing games - so I don't really bother anymore. GTA4 is going to be even worse than average games with this crap, so I'm certainly opting out. After 6 months with Gears I canceled my Gold account, a long time ago now. It's a damn shame, though, because I love online games in theory, I just wish Live had more filters for weeding out the morons.
