I was totally ***ed to Quake 2 and there were nothing but shit "typing"
***s then, 6+ years ago.

I agree 110%, the mic SUCKS especially with kids.

For me online *** is perfect because I "mostly" play with real life
friends.
I rarely play with people I don't know but I have added roughly 12 people I
have met on Live.
With the PS2, I only play with people I know in life.

Shit talkers and cheaters do ruin online ***.
For me, and most people I know, *** is an escape from everyday
life/reality and the last thing we want to deal with is some punkass
***ager that curses every other word or is using some sort of
cheat/hack/bug or glitch to have an unfair advantage against you..

and this cross posted item is in a newsgroup about sims.  
GT3 IS a great game...but WITHOUT damage, WITHOUT a viable***pit and
WITHOUT an online component, it's just that...a game.  
If I want to twiddle my thumbs...I can probably find other challenging
things like...well like twiddling my thumbs.  

  Online was one of the big FEATURED items in all GT4 previews.  
This would be similar to releasing a new version of Madden Football and
choosing to not include a computer opponent since "defense doesn't really
add to the experience."

Every time you open your mouth you sound dumber then the time before, if
that's even possible.
Is that why at one time there was 100,000 servers for Half Life counter
strike?
Alienware (A *** PC mainly company) stocks are skyrocketing because of
the failure of PC ***, huh?
Do you have clue one how many copies ID sold of Doom 3 for the PC the past
several weeks?
OMG dude, crawl back under your rock and just STFU already!

I added you, I just haven't been online the past few weeks because I am
rebuilding my gameroom (practically from scratch).  I am almost done and I
will meet up with you online soon, I look forward to playing against you,
just not in a football game :-) - I'm not dumb!

Dell is run by dumb asses.  I just bought a laptop and a desktop from them
and they have...........NO WAY TO PAY YOUR DELL ACCOUNT ONLINE.  How the
hell can a computer company not have online bill pay, dumb asses.

Who needs online capabilities anyway, for PS2 players outside the USA or
UK online services are pitiful, and those without a lot of money go
without it. I was annoyed that SOCOM 2 had minimal single player
missions, favouring the online crowd instead, a lot of people still play
games without their PS2's hooked up to a modem or broadband. I for one
am glad Polyphony Digital favoured development the actual game instead
of satisfying those people who like to think they're cool by playing
their games online.
