@legend,
i agree, i personally am a nintendo fan [only owned sega and nintendo consoles] but in terms of 'fanboyism' [read; immature version of fan] on forums i see, it seems about 80% to be sony nintendo attacks. with 15% nintendo m'soft and 5 between ms and sony... this is probably partly because i dont look at much x-box or ps news/threads but i still feel its much more sony/nintendo flamers
i suppose a big reason currently is the turnaround in marketshare for those companies which has been an irritant to sony fans and bait for nintendo... i do recall seeing more microsoft vs other two before last November, so sales is probably the main catalyst [before nov ms fans were saying their lead is insurmountable sony fans were probably thinking ps3 would be ahead of 360 well before now, and ms/sony were both laughing at the "gimmicky" wii remote.
if only fewer gamers were 12-16.
