Driving stick fanboys. I get it slapshift is not the same as real shifting so what. My car is still faster and much cooler looking than yours. We came up with automatic for a reason, to make driving easier. Why would I want to make something be more complicated if doesnt have to.

I normally only see people with crappy cars preach driving stick and its because their jealous. They dont have a choice their stuck with their stick shift. So their just pissed, they have to stick shift their ugly cars while I zoom by them in by sweet automatic.

What I find so funny is how they rave about how great their manual cars are and ignore how often they stall while driving.  A car shouldn't stall unless their is something seriously wrong with it, in my opinion.  My friend and his girlfriend bought a stick-shift car.  It has stalled several times while I've been out driving with them.  Once, it stalled at a stoplight while she was driving, and she actually blamed the guy in front of her for not going the split second the light turned green, saying that "he doesn't know how to drive."

yeah this thread has been a joke for a while. I have a lot to say on the subject of fanboys, but apparently nobody wants to hear it because my experiences weren't the norm.

I still maintain that Sony Fanboys are the least annoying, if for no other reason than the fact that I didn't even MEET a sony fanboy until after microsoft fanboys had their crusade against their primary competition. For years (and even today) it's just "sony sucks this" and "Sony fucked up that" and I STILL See people claiming the PS3 has no games or whatever.

I disagree with this statement for a number of reasons.  I have come across WAY too many anti-Nintendo threads started by people who are clearly Sony fanboys not just on this site, but all over the internet.  The 3DS starts off with slow sales after it's launch, and Sony fanboys are all over it calling the system a failure, or a gimmicky niche piece of crap and what have you.  The Vita launches to disappointing sales, and the Sony fanboys run for cover saying that ALL systems have weak post-launch numbers and actually start pointing to 3DS sales trends to back-up their argument.  How can you laugh at the first few months of 3DS's sales, and then turn around and use that data to claim that your own favorite system's sales are normal??  Sony posts billion dollar losses for 4 consecutive years and no one bats an eyelash.  Nintendo posts a loss last year for the first time since the early 80's (that's 3 consecutive decades of profits) and Sony fanboys are all over it claiming that Nintendo will be a 3rd party developer soon.  I find Sony fanboys to be THE MOST annoying in my experience.  And judging by the fact that they have the clear majority in this poll with over 30% of the vote and a 10% gap over 2nd place, I'd have to say that most of the people who have read this thread agree.

Before I got one of the HD consoles, I'd heard mostly bad things about the 360. That might have been one of the factors in play when I got my PS3. Dont get me wrong Halo is great and everything.

Anyway, sometimes I feel bad for Nintendo fanboys. I used to be one of them until last summer. If all you play is Nintendo systems, then you are missing out on a LOT of great games.

Yay!!!

If you titled the thread "What platform / console do you hate the most?" you would probably get the same results. It's only natural for fanboys to think the worst fanboys are of the ones of their most hated platform.

I always say the first sign of being a fanboy is being able to point out which fanboys are the worst.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Yeah im not denying that stuff.

But heres an example of how it makes Sony fans look to some people

Imagine 360 fans had an apple. It was a nice ripe perfectly good looking apple. Everyone agreed it was pretty cool and just about anyone could agree it was plenty good enough. Then suddenly hardcore Sony fans jump in with an apple just a little bit bigger, a little bit riper, and just generally a littlebit more delicious looking. Instead of the Sony fans saying hey Xbox guys thats a pretty sweet apple youve got there but check this one out. It looks pretty tasty too and maybe even a little better than the other apples. Instead Sony fans have a bad habit of saying something more along the lines of, Hey Xbox guys your apple looks rotten and like complete crap compared to our glorious apple! Its so much bigger around than your and just look at how much redder it is! Who would ever what an apple like yours.

Thats pretty much what hardcore Sony fanboys act like about graphics

Apple fanboy?

More like a hypocritie guy who can't accept others point of view and opinion. I really shouldn't waste my time with random people like you who pop out of the blue and call me fanboy. Ive never heard of you. Maybe you should enter the discussions more often and debate with me rather than watching on the sidelines.

We've all heard of you, though, and your notoriety has a lot to do with the very reason that this thread was created.


I'm honored that you know me, I don't know you. So that makes me a celebrity here.
