Swearing on Xbox Live
Weblogger Josh Smith has posted an account of his informal survey into the frequency and nature of profanity in Halo 2 over Xbox Live, which has for some time held an ill reputation for off-color remarks. Over the course of 33.9 hours, Smith recorded 275 instances of "f*ck," with the second-place profanity being 121 instances of "sh*t." Racial, sexual, and homosexual slurs were fairly common, with over 40 occurrences of each. Most profanities averaged between one and two occurrences per hour, with the exception of "f*ck," which garnered an average of 8.11 times each hour.
