Gawd with the haterade never end? i dont remember ANYONE ranting this much when PS3 was wiping the floor with the 360 not to long ago. this has got to come to a halt. |
It's because the once ubiquitous Playstation is looking like a hasbeen, while the Xbox is sort of a never-was. Microsoft getting its ass-kicked by Sony in the console business would be a non-story to the non-gaming media. Besides, bandwagoning is how the media works. Remember all those "Game over for Nintendo?" articles before the Wii launched? (In their defense, that was a headline that was just too good to pass up. )

And yet there weren't nearly as many rants about it on the forums. Can't people actually post GOOD news for their console of choice instead of going off on once hailed leading sellers of the console business. The "oh how the mighty have fallen" thing happens all the time, it's nothing new in anything.

I was talking about mainstream media coverage, which is what I took him to mean by "ranting". But on the forums is another thing, sure. I'd like to see a sticky thread for stuff like this (and "omg, my console broke!" for that matter).
