Halo's Filthiest Trash Talk

Oct 30, 2007

Game experience may change during online play. This innocuous disclaimer accompanies every game with Xbox Live connectivity, but what it actually means is that you're about to be subjected to a barrage of bigotry so profoundly offensive that it will shake your faith in humanity to the very core. During some recent Halo sessions, we encountered loads of vile, bilious ranting that seemed to know no restraint. Rather than using the mute button, we hit record and captured these shocking vulgarities in all their rawness. Then we added a few helpful animations and subtitles to help illustrate the scenarios. Let us now raise a one-finger salute to the dumb-asses of Xbox Live - long may they populate our Avoided Players lists.

Before clicking play on the video below, know that it is fraught with all manner of tasteless language. It is intended for mature audiences, and is solely for the purpose of illuminating the social phenomena surrounding the most popular game of all time.
