What a befitting scene for this thread, considering the amount of support Sony is getting here:

...


Dude, I really feel sorry for you.  Your unjustified hatred for a company has blinded you from the joys of gaming.  Take a very close look at my game collection.  There are so many games that have and are being offered on a Sony platform than any reasonable gamer can see that a Sony gaming platform is well its purchase.  But instead, you take this unfounded unproven hated of yours to find reason to love hate over gaming.  Maybe there is a lot of Sony support here because we gamers see the goods, and we want to see them keep bringing out the goods to all of the legit gamers that actually support gaming and not a petty fueled selfish agenda.  You can keep hating on, but the rest of are are going to keep gaming.

Can you tell me first of all, how are you able to game? It's not a hypothetical. Is it because you, for instance, live in a free country? Now, how do you believe your country remains free? I'll give you a hint. Thomas Jefferson said it best when he said "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance". In other words, if you take your perks for granted, one day, you'll find them gone.

I like games too, but you need to understand, you cannot pardon a company for testing the bounds of liberty and personal property rights just because they entertain you. You need to praise them for the good and criticise the bad. If you don't that's when you're no longer a gamer, just a fanboy.

I'm a Nintendo fan, but I have plenty to say about their practises, too. Read my thread history. I've started two rants on their conduct referring to 3DS design. If Nintendo pulled something similar to Sony, I'd hit them just as hard.

We have a saying in my country. It's called "keeping the bastards honest". Now, you might look down at me at being somehow less of a gamer than you for bringing this up, but let me ask you, which one of us is REALLY doing the greater benefit towards the gaming community?
