Why the fuck would we do that?

Hm, I most certainly didn't notice a good chunk of it then. Some very good games released, Nintendo is finally going to fix the WiiU menu, MGS V looks VERY promising...and that's about all positive news I noticed this month. No new infos about the PS4, no big announcements for the WiiU, no info on the Nextbox...

But yeah, I'll agree the atmosphere on this forum was pretty unbearable at times. It somewhat seems to get better though (might just be due to the twitter post of that MS dude though, since now Sony and Nintendo fans can diss a common enemy instead of each other)...

I'm ok with people expressing their dislike if it's on topic. In a Vita thread if you bring up your hate of gamecube, well that's just stupid.

I'd say all three are getting attacked often at the moment.  Every WiiU thread is mostly negative by this point and the NeXbox with rumors flying around people on both sides are going crazy.  Then sony takes some hits with the Vita and there financial situations. 

What annoys me more than anythuing is all these negative opinion piece articles are the ones that is getting the most hits.  It just enourages users like Somini to keep putting them on this site.

You sure about that? That's why the OP is complaining!

What's wrong with opinions? Who cares where the opinion comes from?

I think shit opinions, that is, opinions backed up by shit logic or evidence are bad. I think shit threads are bad (threads that have no room for discussion, or are just fucking sad and disturbing). But I would LOVE to see more "hostile" threads that have some unique and interesting ideas back up by good logic.

I think people trying to stifle discourse are facists, especially the type that self victimize themselves and cry that they are being silenced while trying to silence others.

Yeah, forgive me. I even included it towards the end of the post (forgive me, I'm somewhat drunk right now...)

No can do.

Would be nice to have some official Xbox news though, a 360 price cut, anything since my bunker is running out of ammo and the enemy keeps getting resupplied as of late (more active news)

Not trying to sound mean, but realistically that's not going happen no matter how much you ask them not too. Best thing you can do is simply ignore those types of threads, or atleast don't comment in them. It's what I started doing after realizing shortly after joining this site how much negativity it has on it. I've been enjoying it a lot more, as there are still plenty of positive an interesting threads on here. If for some reason you can't find any, make your own!
