12 September 2006 - 22:46Vision cam used to display the obscene shocker!

Game experience may change during online play. It always does! I had a little chuckle reading this article at Kotaku that confirms the inevitable (sooner than anyone though possible).

When I first got my 360, I emailed Microsoft with a few random questions I had about upcomin features:

[...]My third question goes back to the custom gamer pictures, will there be an option to make it so you can’t ever see people’s custom pictures? I’m asking on behalf of concerned parents who don’t want their children seeing obscene images (made with the camera, or uploaded if uploading becomes possible.)

Thanks! I’m really enjoying my xbox 360 experience so far!

…and the response I recieved:
