NBA player Gilbert Arenas cheating at Halo 3
[url=http://www.bungie.net/stats/PlayerStatsHalo3.aspx?player=Agent%20Arenas]Cheater[/url]
Look at all his games that he gets 1st place in. He joins up with a friend and has his other account quit out so he gets 1st place every time. How can this be allowed?
My last words on this subject
Live 08 sucks<<<<<<<<<2k8....

I say we all take turns and stone him to death
I just got back from my cousins pee-wee football game, where I am sad to report both teams actually played fair (And congratulated eachother on touch downs!) I was hoping to go from cheating in this world to cheating in the real world to damn civilization [Edited on 10.11.2007 8:37 PM PDT] -
lol this story is like all over the web now, and according to one site...we are all nerds!!! lol yea ooooo-blam!--blam!-.... got to go....star trek just came on....cya!!!! HAHAHAHAHAhAHAHAHAHA!!!!

I'm sure it will be on ESPN. It's been on other news sites and been on G4. It's getting around and it's only a day. I still think it's funny how he 'proved he's good' by playing a laggy 16 person game in the pit with his custom stuff. Psh. Famous people. I wish he woulda DCed.

Hopefully with this much publicity Bungie well change the game so that this wont happen again. I also agree about the Suiciding not giving negitive points is also lame even if its in the Social. Damn, 2 hours to read all these pages!

Dear Mr. Arenas, If you have taken the time out of your busy schedule to read the Halo community's feedback, then you may already know that your fellow gaming peers tend to regard cheating nearly as severely as killing puppies. Now I know that you may think, "Hey, everyone cheats. Just stand on the 50-yard line and you'll see cheating. Or just watch a baseball game. Cheating is practically inherent in the game itself. I mean seriously, where does the cheating stop and the game begin?" But cheating is an epidemic, whether it be in Halo, or on your wife/girlfriend, or on the court. It is an epidemic because no one realizes that someone gets hurt in the process, and that person is Henry Winkler. Yes thats right. Every time Bond's steps up to the plate, or some highschool kid copies another's homework, or you boost your rank via social doubles, the Fonze takes one in the junk. Now ask youself, do you really want to contribute to Fonzie's crushed gonads, or do you want to be part of the solution? We, the Halo community, want to believe that you'll do the right thing.

lol. Like I said just laugh at people like that when you -blam- them in the @$$.

don't know if this has been posted but this thread got dugg...very cool! http://digg.com/xbox_360/NBA_Star_Gilbert_Arenas_caught_cheating_in_Halo_3

Lmfao. I just played his game he challenged people too. It wasn't even a good game. He set it to 16 people in THE PIT with his own game type and forged map setup. The game type had no radar and started with Battle Rifle.. He also had one laggy freakin' host. Not to mention he's not very smart. Haha. He was calling us haters. xD
-
Yeah, good job MC. This is probably one of the largest threads on the forum history. But, it doesnt really matter about this one guy. There are probably a couple thousand gamers like that. Just laugh at people like them when you -blam!- them in the @$$ because they have no true skill and can only boost.
-
Posting in this epic thread! Really, get over it. Its just a game and he's only doing it in social. No one is actually getting "hurt" by this so just let the guy be. Kudos to the OP for starting an epic thread though.

Shut up nerds!

how do you know that is actually gilbert arenas???

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh its not cheating its just lame, + if somebody has 500 socials and 40 ranked games i usually think they suck but thats just me
-
Iceman! It's been a while since I've played you.

Hey guys, damn I didn't know this thread would get so many posts over night and that there would be an ESPN blog over it. This is crazy. Call me PTI LMAO.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FatherTimex [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] V1nTaGe x FlaSh Tell me, which is more pathetic? [/quote] Pretty sure it's you, defending him and trying to act cool on a halo message board.[/quote] Vintage is cool lol but he wasn't "trying to act cool" here. He was making a valid point. People boost in this game all the time. The only reason he's getting so much attention is because of his status. Fair enough. But at the end of the day, no one is getting hurt and we're all gonna get on with our lives. It's funny that Arenas is boosting though, but it's not the end of the world, nor is it cause for concern. This is all, merely, a good laugh. Nothing more.

He has way more free time than you or me, 4hrs of practice, 1hr of film and a 30 minute press conference isn't exactly a 9 to 5, and he doesn't have homework either lol[/quote] Tell me, how I am retarted if I'm saying something that is true, and I never said that the practice until they pass out on the court. He, like many other NBA players probably wouldn't want to play a video game when they are in training camp and the regular season is just around the corner. And practice is probably a lot longer than four hours, its training camp for god sakes.[/quote] umm, because it's *not* true, and why wouldn't he want to play? He's not just gonna sit around and say "ooh wee, the regular season" for eight hours a day.[/quote] Even if he is playing video games, hes probably playing NBA Live 08 most of the time since he is on the cover and he is a pro basketball player. And even if I'm not right about the training camp thing, it doesn't mean i'm retarded for getting one thing wrong. And if he doesn't play, he's probably tired from the practice/game that he had earlier in the day.[/quote] So you admit you are wrong on all three points? You're out, next please.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] rof1copter [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] pretzelman94 Guy, I really don't think that Gilbert Arenas will care. He is a superstar in the NBA, and he has better things to worry about then cheating in a video game. (i.e. getting ready for the NBA season, Helping the Wizards compete for a title, which isnt all that hard in the Eastern Conference anyway.) [b] Oh, and for all those who are saying he should get banned or suspended from the NBA [/b], that has absolutely no chance of happening, since first, its a freaking video game, and second, its a pretty minor deal. And third, David Stern wouldn't care.[/quote] I don't know if anyone said that. But if they did, they REALLY need to get outside. Before they turn into dust. Because that is just pathetic........[/quote] I have seen a few in this thread.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] V1nTaGe x FlaSh Not sure whats sadder, that this thread has gotten to 33 pages, or that people actually think that Gilbert cares if 1% of the gaming community care that he boosts in social. There are thousands of other cheaters, but Gilbert cheating makes headlines here. In fact, i think he might even find some enjoyment in this. Even when he screws up, everyone talks about him. I know Arenas, being a Washington Wizards fan, he LOVES attention. At the end of the day, Gilbert is a professional basketball player making 19 mil a year to dribble a ball. You guys on the other hand, get enjoyment out of clicking a mouse and exposing somebody for something they ARENT trying to hide. Tell me, which is more pathetic? [/quote] I'm with you. God you are all just like those pathetic paparazzi. All they do is trash famous people. I don't really care who is and who isn't famous; I would much rather have some of the more severe cheaters banned than everyone make a big deal about an NBA player boosting his experience.
