And why do your friends argue about tastes of consoles and not over tastes of cars? Well the answer is easy: rivalries! With music, clothes, cars etc. there aren't real rivalries... with the console business, it's all about the rivalry! Hence this is called a console war! It isn't cool to be a fan of let's say Liverpool and love Manchester United right? It's only when a winning team loose too much of it's good reputation that fanboys wil starting to support a more winning team leaving only the hardcore of hardcore behind. Nobody loves to loose. And if Sony doesn't learn from it's past mistakes like Nintendo did in the past... they will loose more and more fanboys. |
Are you kidding? Ford ... Chevy ... Mopar? Ferrari ... Lamborghini? There's tons of rivalries. We even have races between car manufacturers to try to prove who makes the best car. |
True... but the big difference is the general public don't really care about the rivalry between cars. The general public would die to drive in one of those dreamcars! The love them all, no matter how big the rivalries are... it's a league of it's own. The titles they race for are just for prestige. The general public only remembers who's the best racer, not what's the best brand.
