Forums - Gaming Discussion - Why do Sony fans still think they are the underdog?

Is the persecution complex of Sony fans just a hold over from last gen or is it here to stay? You seemingly can't point out anything negative about anything sony related without being accused of being biased or some other such nonsense. Did noone bother to send sony fans the memo that their console is number 1 by a large margin? How can you be beating your closest competitor by nearly 2:1 and still claim underdog status? I don't get it. If reviewers are truly biased against Sony exclusives then how on earth can games like Uncharted 2, The Last of Us and Journey be some of the most critically acclaimed games of all time?

If anybody should have a persecution complex it would be nintendo fans... But seriously though, noone should have a persecution complex. All this console favortism nonsense is really killing games. Not everthing needs to be viewed through that lens. It is really getting obnoxious.

How long after Gamespot's Kirby review did the thread about how much they hate Nintendo go up?

No idea. Obviously PS is the biggest and most popular brand by far far far far far (half because Europe, and partially because it's like in every single country almost.). At least for Home consoles anyways.

Let's be honest, it happens both ways a lot. I even see you put a boot in on Sony related subjects A LOT.



Every fanboy will say you're biased if you point out flaws on games/companies.
Nintendo fanboys also have this conspiracy theory that the gaming press hates Nintendo or something.

It's really not exclusive to Sony.
