halo 3 era was really communication and team work if you had a full team vs full team everyone would talk and say GG at the end of the game. even if you went into a game by yourself you would meet amazing people. but it sucks now.

i would think that it is because everyone shouts at each other or you get little 10 year olds that sit and give you abuse and you just loose it and argue with them for about an hour. thats why party chat is better

there are alot of spicks kids british and kids being assholes about that

i remember talking to people and actually playing the game and not being called names. now a days you just have 8 year olds saying stupid stuff and trying to act better than everyone while playing a mature rated game.

Yeah I agree, I got insulted by an 11 year old for saying " Plant at A" On Black Ops II.

You are 100% right my dude! Every game. I have been playing xbox since I was 6 thats ten years and xbox live has changed way too much there use to be nights that I would not go out and play xbox all night now its so boring unless you call friends to come and play

YZE wrote Back in the day there wasn't a term called "Trolling". Case closed.

There is a difference between people who are good at trolling (really funny) and people who are not (complete idiots).

In COD theres a lot of people in game chat, but in certain games theyre all in party chat

yea its like that with me too but i play Pc games mostly now but when i played xbox it was always like that!

I hate game chat honestly there's always one of three things going on in game chat that drive me nuts.

1) Squekers with kinects w/ mom or little brother in background screaming.

2) Someone playing loud music yet you tell them to turn it down and next thing you know a heated argument breaks out.

3) People who trash talk before the game even starts .-. I avoid game chat at all times possible lol
