The term 'randoms' meaning random people, of course. It is incredibly boring after a while, having nothing to do but listen to music, run outside, play games and watch television. However, sometimes I find some relief from the monotony by having a good chat on counterstrike or something. I can hardly play video games anymore just for the sake of playing them. When it comes to gaming, fps like counterstrike are mindnumbing. Drag the cursor around, over and enemy and fire. Does anyone have a go-to game for when they want to find people to talk to? Sure, there's always going to be douche bags online. Sometimes talking to the douche bags is fun, but most of the time people don't talk, or don't have anything interesting to talk about.

I play Halo 3 in game chat, no one's in party chat on any other games I play so what's the point?

I'll bring the tritium laser cutters if you bring the beer!

Funny story.

Counter-Strike is one of the only game I can do that. You can't pause and chat up people in UT.

Sometimes.

No, I want nicer people to talk to. I don't like the people I meet on counterstrike most of the time.

xbl doesn't suck because it has party chat, means I don't have to talk to randoms.

I don't care. You're missing the point of my thread. If you can't be intelligent enough to hold a normal discussion than you should probably leave. Your grammar sucks.

Pure Insanity
The point of war is not to die for one's clan, but it's to make the other bastard die for his
Right before you die, there is always a chance to save yourself, sieze that chance and live to fight another day
The best way to kill someone is to fight them with the same weapons they use and make them know you are better than them, not because of superior weaponry, but because of superior skill.
Hidden in the shadows, Clothed in camo, Armed to the teeth. Hunting.

I never have any nice people in my games, at least out of those who actually talk.

"Spartans never die, if only that were true..."

You didn't specify that we were only discussing PC games. The blame falls on you this time, OP.
