Since being on this website I have called the forums venemous, petty, and abnoxious to name a few.  Yes I have placed most of the blame on Sony fans for this as well.  Im sure that probably offends some of you guys and that is ok. However don't misunderstand me, there is venemous members from every corner and as much as I want to call you guys out for it I will be banned and this thread will be locked.  At the rate things are going it wouldnt be doubtful if i made a thread like this in the future. But for the moment you do know who I am at least referring to.  Yes Xbox fans Im talking to you as well.

So the console wars are abnoxious for starters.  It has become completely unbearable on forums when a big portion of the conversations are petty argueing over who has the best plactic box( I know youve heard this from me like 100 times) but my question is why the need to convince each other who has the better box?  I Know as you read this some people are going to prob post some shit about me in specific(Especially a user that hates meta threads or whatever the hell he wants to call them) in the comments below as I usually do know how these threads will turn out, but i really want to understand what the issue is with everybody.  

What generally seems to happen is you have a hardcore fan of Company A attacks Company B.  Then User of Company B gets annoyed and says "Two can play that game" and then attacks back.  This pops up a continuous amount of threads just to post negativity about one another.   In return it only leaves a venomous and obnoxious community.

Do you guys not realize how abnoxious you sound at times?  And what is the point of putting each other's opinions down?  Does it make you feel better about the product you bought?  

Let me ask Vita fans something now.  Do you like the Vita?  If you say yes then you should understand that things revolve around personal opinions and all the shit talking it takes wont deflect your opinion.

You see, just because you dont like something doesnt mean youre going to change someone elses mind.  They already made up their mind.  Take Anime for example.  I know a lot of you like that and as many people make fun of it you guys watch it any ways.  Let's take XBO for example now.  As much shit as it has taken on forums since its announcement (Some deserved) do you think all that shit talking changed the people's minds that you were arguing with?  They had already made their decision so why mock them for it?

What I am getting at is I believe all this stems from an eye for an eye.  You attack me and ill attack back.  So I ask you guys can we end the console wars now?  It does nothing but make you guys look abnoxios.  It is ok to enjoy your favorite products being successful or more successful than the competition.  But it is completely disrespectul mocking each others opinions and decisions in life.

Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo has all made enticing consoles both in the present and past.  This is why people argue for them, not because they are horrible consoles, but because people enjoy them.  So let them enjoy them and dont attack their opinions.  Even this attitude people have about who sells the most has the best console is wrong.  Best is determined by yourself and only you.  Otherwise you would be saying Call of Duty is the best game of the generation and i know you guys dont want to say that.
