Forums - Gaming Discussion - Whos worse, sony or nintendo fanboys?

I think before Sony fanboys were worse when Sony was the dominant company, then the last year 360 fanboys were the worse and now it's Nintendo fanboys that are the worse. Whichever company appears to be in the best shape, the fanboys of that console appear to be the worse because they get cocky and know-it-all. Like there are fewer and fewer pro-Sony posts in most game sites (except the ones that are actual playstation forums and stuff like that) because Sony fanboys feel crappy right now lol



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=1812&start=50#end my thoughts on the Sony is doomed issue, there is another thread on that, feel free to join Rol I myself am a gaming fan, and I have certain allegiances to the different sectors of the industry for different reasons, I dunno i'll defend one way or the other depending on the general idea of the argument. I for one like Nintendo being successful at the moment, my favorite unit is the DS currently and that's only good for me... plus they are the underdog and being a person who likes geeky things (aka: NERD) I like underdogs :P I like Sony's consoles because they always just seem to draw me in, something about them makes me want to play... more so than other consoles, but generally I think that's just the sign that PS2 had so many really good games. I don't know why I like Microsoft... infact I don't like Microsoft as a company... I don't really have much nice to say about Xbox really - there are some games I must play on this though so I will get a 360 eventually. Ummm... that's enough about my lame self.

They are both horrible. They both try to make everyone play the same thing. I'm a nintendo fan but i don't force people to play the wii. Play the PS3 if you like it. It's a magnificent console with great potential. I respect other people's opinions. Play the 360 if it is fun. I do not care. Wii fanboys and PS3 fanboys are equal.

So reading between the lines you are saying 'BURN BURN PS3 and XBOX consoles BURN THEM ALL!'

Am I correct



Why aren't 360 fanboys on the list? I usually find that they are the most offensive.



 

I own a Wii a PsP a Xbox a Dreamcast a Playstation a SNES and a NES so its save to say I spread my love quite equally, still I genarally like Nintendo most but only because I love the games,  Sony and Microsoft both do a good job but me and lots of other people age 20 and up got hooked on Nintendo early so we stick to our childhood heros (for me its mario and link), the big reason why so many Nintendo fans turn fanatic is because of surpressed anger twards Sony from the N64 and Cube days. Now having so much flame-ammo with the Wii doing so well and the PS3 struggling they are trying to give Sony fans payback for what happend to them the last two generations, this makes the Sony fans eather stay awaiy from arguments or force them to be even more extreme, sometimes even to a point where they leave reality behind and just start throughing ugly stereotypes around.  (the HUS factor) So in my opinion Fanboys are all the same and get worse whenever their company does well. I really hope both Sony and Microsoft do well because without this strong competition Nintento would never have been forced to go new ways as they did with the DS and Wii.

Agreed. Just head over to the Gamepro and Gamespot forums and be prepared to pass-out from the nonsense. Gamepro loves Sony? Their magazine has Miis for the editor pictures, and just look at the cover of the first issue with the pictoral change, "Wii Win." They had issues on how Microsoft could save the 360, and how Sony could save the PS3. Nothing as of yet for the Wii; only praise. Most 360 fanboys have it implemented in their head that the Wii isn't a stand-alone console, rather it accompanies the 360. I just wonder what they will say when there are more Wiis sold than 360s.

But overall, fanboys just should be avoided, yet, most forums do nothing to rid of them.

 



Hehee, nice topic. Every fanboy can be as bad as other one, in some cases. Wii: defending grapfics don't matter. P$3: You just wait, ps3 will rule, with this game,etc. 360:Defending reason's why M$ rules da world. They are equally bad. How many of you visit's/writes in Gamespot's System Wars ? :p



Nothing's cheaper than something free.

F1 vs FOTA, when too much power is in couple peoples hands.

in my opinion, there are more Nintendo Fan Boys, but Sony fan boys are much much more extreme (and at times, they sound like 5 year olds).
