Watch as Xbox Kinect punishes user in video game for SWEARING

 

The game informs him that his in-game player has been issued a penalty because of his language

 

Xbox One users discovered last week that swearing on Xbox Live uploads could get them suspended from their accounts.

And it seems that Xbox have taken their disapproval of swearing to a new level by punishing gamers even in private games.

YouTube user RandomFrankP uploaded a video of him playing the basketball game NBA 2k14.

After the Xbox Kinect hears him swearing, the game informs him that his in-game player has been issued a penalty because of his language.

He screams: "What?! That's ridiculous!

"I can't curse in my own house?"

He continues: "I spend $530 for an Xbox One and you're going to penalise me?"

The video has quickly gone viral, being watched over 260,000 times in just a few days.

Some viewers have pointed out that you can turn the option off in the game's settings.

But not everyone disliked the feature. One said: "You can't cuss on the court, it adds realism. I love that feature."

Not sure how to embed the video if some one wants to go ahead with it but here's the url.

So MS is going the "Big Brother Nintendo" route? Bad move.



I am the Playstation Avenger.

   

I think this is a pretty cool addition.

And you can turn it of, after all.

EDIT:

And this is 2K's idea. (Or rather, game feature?) Trying to use this against Microsoft or Kinect is pathetic.



The line of
"FUCK YOU, KINECT!"
"Invalid Command"

is hilarious!



Brilliant use of the Kinect. That was hilarious lol.



Why blame MS? This is an optional feature in 2K's game.
