I was very excited to start Xbox Live-ing. Oh yes, so very excited. Talking to people over headsets, getting online achievements, double-teaming difficult baddies, etc.
That was until some knob jockey joined me in a perfectly innocent game of Dead Rising 2.
He kept making hugely annoying and downright stupid remarks. e.g 'oh look I'm drunk, I'm being sick. Hahahahaha.' (because in DR2 if you drink to much you are sick. As I'm sure you non-knob-jockey-readers deciphered.). So, firstly, I am playing xbox with a 12 year old boy. Great.
He then kept pissing about doing stupid things like hitting zombies repeatedly with boxes (and then commenting on this into my ear), and I can't move rooms because he's too busy being a general tool far away.
An this is why I did not feel remorse when he died YET AGAIN and I stootered about doing nothing, instead of reviving him. Even the shouts of 'HELP!' and 'Dude, I'm Dyyyyying' (in that patronising tone you get when people state the obvious) did not rock my moral boat. No siree.
So from now on, if I'm on xbox-live with a big-talking nancy boy, I'm going to talk with a mega heavy Scottish accent and use swear words like they're oxygen. Intimidation is the way forward, I say.
END.
nailed it
