PS3 fanboys are the problem?

Are you sure you have been lurking much?

Because after reading several posts in the past month or so, it has still been wii infested.

With fanboys thinking the wii is 7 times more powerful than the ps2(soriku), and saying the wii can handle cod4, and it would sell better on the system etc..

I seriously dont see any ps3 fanboys attacking the 360 at all, all I see is wii fanboys Laughing there a$$ off as the wii continues to outsell everything, and then acting as if the wii is a superior gaming machine.

Wow, so much exaggeration in one post. Firstly anybody who uses a linear compairson of the graphic capabilities of two machines shouldn't be comparing anything. (Yes I've done this in the past aswell, but learned more)  

Secondly Nobody said the wii could run CoD 4 in the way you are making it out to be. They said with downgrades it was possible, without anything else but the graphics to be changed.

Also who is "acting" when they say the wii is superior? You don't need to "act" to see that Jk

Also there are many ps3 fans attacking the 360 lately. Example While not as much as the op is making it out to be its still there.

 

 

Who is this nobody ?

 Lol, you dont need to act there you have it a perfect example of fanboyism.

 

Yeah some random guy from half a year ago says it, then the rest of the thread disagrees. So that = wii fans?

I guess at the end of the day, 360 fans like Starcraft report THE TRUTH - Yes its written in a way that makes the 360 look good, but he doesn't make these harsh digs that a massive number of PS3 fans do.

It seems that the rules dictate...

PS3 news that is positive must be celebrated forever

Xbox 360 news that is positive must be....wrong, a lie, hacked apart for a negative, some comment about RROD or similar bought up.

PS3 news that is negative - oh dear might as well not read that thread, it will be full of PS3 owners with their claws out

Xbox 360 news that is negative - Strangely it will have PS3 owners in it, discussing RROD, re wording the news in as many negative ways as possible and welll....just generally being annoying.

It starts to make you lose faith in society today! Is this the bottom of the barrel?

Dude starcraft does not report the truth, he makes his post seem very biased there are various examples of those.

Also what ps3 fans are you talking about? This isnt GAMETRAILERS.

Get used to it because we are not longer in 2007 when PS fans had to take alot of shit when PS3 sold on par with 360. But this year PS3 is selling 50k more in weekly basis then xbox360 and future is looking great. You will see alot of xbox fans here when 360 start selling on par with PS3 again but thats unluckly now.

 

 Thing is, it was never this bad was it...Back then, what was said was true.

The point its at now is almost a Parrody!

 

Its 10 times worse now than then, and the comments are 10 times more uninformed and the FUD stuff is almost funny if it wasn't serious.

You have now been put in my list of rediculous posters. Just like crazzyman and Johnlucas (and leo-j at one point) I shall never take another post of yours seriously ever again.

If you wanted to make a point you were welcome to. After that statement however your credibility went down the toliet. You just went about this all the wrong way.

1. Singled out a group of people
2. Insulted the group of people
3. Made rediculous claims
4. Praised the opposite group of people.

hmm.. Have you really been "lurking for ages" as you claim? I've been lurking for a loong time too, and if you have truly been lurking as long as you say you have, you would know that in the first 2 quarters of last year, the amount of fanboys attacking the PS3 was way more than what the 360 is experiencing now. Although I cannot comment on the "the general intellectual standard of debate" because I do not visit the Microsoft section because I do not own a 360. The only Microsoft threads I read/post are the ones that are in the home page and who's title piques my interest (tales of vesperia, Star Ocean threads, etc). I do however see certain fanboys attacking Sony threads, its either Wii fanboys saying something about sales or M$ fanboys saying something degrading but stated in a very intelligent way that makes it not as obvious.

I'm going to make a thread.

360 Fanboys - you do realise you're putting people off the 360.

By whining and complaining all the time, all you do is make yourself a target.

I just wanted to let you know that all 2 of you 360 goons are putting other 360 owners from posting here, the reason for a lack of 360 posters isn't because the console is unpopular, it's because of you lot scaring everyone away.

It makes me sick to be honest, a long term member tried to say that he was banning anyone who posted "trolled" in the 360 forum, and brought a wave of destruction on himself, and even the forum manager had to shut down the idea of 3 day bans for trolling in the Microsoft forum, without following the proper procedure, saying this wasn't the case.

Let me tell you now, it wasn't the case.

I've been posting here for ages, and since the massive influx of PS3 sales at christmas and beyond, the general intellectual standard of debate from 360 owners has gone from "pretty good" to "embarrassing to even read".

Discuss! ^

__________________________________________________________________

See! I can make baseless claims too!

You're obviously an educated guy, why can't everyone get along...I've read your posts, I can see the glee you take in reportingdiscussion of anything negative towards the 360 - it seems its almost a drug. You encourage the new members, and they aren't quite as intelligent as yourself and take everything literally.

I'm just saying from someone who isn't really into all the "LEE7" internet forum nonsense, I'm a grown adult so can afford a console and don't really "support" a company....The way that you seem to want to score points - For whatever reason - is unsightly and irritating to a potential buyer of either console, or someone who has a genuine interest in the console sales data.

 

I dunno, I'm not having a dig, I know it sounds like it...I read mrstickballs 3 day ban thing and that actually sounded like a good idea. Trouble is the 1st post after his was going on about "censoring"...

He just wants to bring some order to the place, you need to have rules in life....

Sorry I prolly shouldn't have made this thread, I had some genuine questions but its all a bit misty.

 

I encourage the new members?   Rofl.

Happy 360 owner here dude.  If you know so much, how in the hell could you not know that?

Anyhoo, this post you just made, makes as much since as your OP, and this post right here [which is none].

 



Burgles on 06 July 2008

No point naming members, its blatently obvious who they are.

Anyways, I prolly shouldn't have made this thread as I said further up...I apologise for that, its prolly against the rules come to think of it :(



kingofwale on 06 July 2008

again, my request of OP backing up his claim has again been convinently ignored. Looks like the person is more keen to throw accusations than to actually back them up.

if someone is willing to make claims of things he can't support, there's no point to argue further.

I am out.

360 fans aren't being scared away. They're just playing their 360's. There's too many games being offered on 360 for people to be racking up 30 posts a day. The same goes for PC and DS fans. The consoles with nothing to play or next year potential are the ones getting all the forum action.
