| ThePS3News said: Hey EveryBody. :) So i was over my best friends house today chilling and playing alot of 360 games (Most were exclusives). Since i currently dont own a 360, One of the games i played was left 4 Dead. I also brought my PS3 since he does not own one. :) So while he was playing my PS3 in another room, I was playing his 360 in the Living room. Everything was good unitl i got into a lobby of some random people on L4D. For those of yall who never played L4D before, 1 of the 4 characters you can choose from is black Because one of the characters is black that i chose, I frequently was experiencing comments like 'haha why do you want to play as the N*****?!' and ' Let's get the N***** first, die N*****! LOL' (note the lol on the end, like it's funny). I really did not care at first so i just continued playing not replying back. But after a while it got really really annoying. So right before we finished the level i immediately turned of the xbox just for the simple fact that the people i was playing with were annoying racist morons, And judging by there accent i would say they were either British or Irish. I never really experinced this level of racism when i played online games on my PS3 or my PC, So i dont know if its just XBL or that i just ran into some bad people in it. Anyways, Do yall think this type of racist behavior will ever go away or atleast die down a little as time moves foward?? It would really be a shame if we go into next gen with people still acting like this online.. :(

How does this relate to
A) gaming
B) L4D
C) Xbox?
I was at my grandma's house and I heard people talking in the street, they were picking haloween costumes.... insert same comments..... same story.
This is people, not games, not gamers, not anything, just people and it'll be the exact same thing in the other gens (relating to your poll) as it's people, not the game or any other factor.
But if it makes you feel better, racism doesn't go only against black people, it goes everyway, and also thowards the white people, just depends in what part of the world you are, and sometimes just what area you live in.... the internet bringing everything closer, you'll find racist people on your path again.
