A few things:
1. The Wii does have core games. People, however, are competitive, and like to compare the Wii to the 360, which has far more core games.
2. The PS3 does have good AAA games. It got them recently.
3. Microsoft is stealing exclusives because Sony is bleeding money and now refuses to pay 3rd party developers for anything. No one respects MS because they are "stealing." However, the real reason is that a lot of people hate microsoft and love sony.
4. When there is a decent game, people aren't happy about it because they are pissed that the game wasn't excellent, but they are even more pissed because opposing fanboys are going to give them hell about their rare exclusive not living up to expectations. See Resistance 2.
5. Some people are having fun with the Wii and admitting it. Some aren't. Some have never played the Wii, hate Nintendo, and are fanboys.
6. Games selling well without poor review scores are usually casual games. It's called generalizing and it's ignorant.
7. Kids talk about the 360, probably because you are in America, and hanging around 14-25 year old boys. They love the 360. Adults and small children love the Wii. Foriegners love the PS3. ;)
8. The PS3 isn't catching up with the 360. It was for a while, and everyone assumed it would pass the 360 soon. Now it is losing ground.
9. The DS will probably be one of the most successful consoles ever. It deserves it. The innovation, and the library are second to only the PS2, PC, and the SNES.
10. People are afraid of the Wii becasue it's making core game development less appealing, since it takes longer, costs more, and returns less.
11. People believe Nintendo forgot the hardcore because of E3 2008. Same reason people think Microsoft is "stealing" exclusives.
12. People are annoying snobbish elitists because people are immature. People have always been like this. You're just now realizing it because of the internet. I take comfort in the fact that I could best most of them in a fight of wits or brawn. When you're actually elite, it's pretty easy to be cool about it. ;D
I got banned last time I drunk-dialed the forum. I'm somehow a lot meaner when I'm drunk, lol.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
