How come I get the feeling most posts in this topic have me in mind.

I'm not a 360 fanboy. I'm a PS3 foeboy, to be sure, but I'm not exactly gonna lie or spin the PS3's situation. If it's grim, then that's how I report it, if it's sunny, same thing.

Frankly, I'm against the PS3 fans mainly because of how they treat fans of other consoles(due to their inferiority complex), and I'm against Sony itself because of the BR move, which promoted another industry at the expense of gamers.

I certainly think that PS3 fans should also be pissed at Sony, but who am I to destroy delusions.


As for gaming, yes, I certainly do know more about the industry and games in general than the vast majority of people here, but that's not too hard to do. Simply don't live under a rock, and remember what you read, and you'll be on an equal playing field with me.

If you don't know who Bioware is, or what their next few games are likely to be, then yes, you deserve to be flamed to hell. Don't blame me for imposing the law.

Overhype is the largest trespass of Sony fans, and I deal with it harshly. If you can handle the consequences, then overhype away, but know that ironically, you are hurting the exclusives you pretend to cherish. Foldor-Kun out.

Once again, you seem to think everyone should have the same opinion as you. Do you even bother to think that some people actually love the ps3 only because of blu-ray? I have a friend who prefers his ps3 to his 360 just because of that...and he has a ton of movies. So this guy is delusional too right?

What infreiority complex are you talking about? Do you know all the people who are ps3 fans or you think it's because their console isn't winning a race that doesn't affect their financials? If anything they should feel superior that they were able to afford a device that the general public can't lol.

As for your overhype claim, the first thing that comes to mind is Killzone 2 and it would seem yahoo games didn't even realize it existed judging by their recent article on 2009's most wanted games so it obviously hasn't been overhyped. Perhaps the fans are just happy to be getting what looks like a top quality game and thus want to talk about it, nothing wrong with that.

In conclusion, ps3 fans rock!!!

 

Zen isn't speaking of all, in any thread like this it's about general feeling you get from the fans of said company, and the general feeling of PS3 fans is exactly how Zen puts it... Killzone 2 is getting a lot of hype and just because it didn't make it onto a list on a site that basically said PSP was dead, doesn't mean a game is not overhyped, and generally Sony fans are the first to put down any other console getting an exclusive, The Conduit comes to mind when talking about hyped FPS's, I mean The Conduit has basically had internet hype, not many ads put out there or magazines covering it, while KZ2 is plastered everywhere since it was announced, yet as soon as Wii got a cool looking FPS with awesome controls every fanboy broke out the "looks like a generic FPS" but overlook the mechanics so basically judging on graphics, while someone posts KZ2 screens and everyone climaxes in extacy as to how amazing it looks...

@bolded:  Well it's not so much a inferiority complex, but a "superiority complex" as in they think they're better then everyone and everything they have is better and will not listen to anyone else, no pile of facts nor reason seem to get through most of the time.  Remember this is general terms, not every PS3 fan is like that but it is the stereotype, and the thing about stereotypes are that they are generally true...

To not realize a lot of Sony fans, even the ones here (no where near as bad as many other sites), have issues with facing facts, and hold onto what things they can while putting everyone else down, it's happened since PS1 and it's ability to play CDs over N64...

 

If Zen wasn't speaking of "all", he should've specified by using the term "some". I don't get why you guys hate people hyping a game so much. How does that affect anyone else? If the conduit isn't plastered everywhere, perhaps wii fans don't care about it as much as you think? It's up to them to hype their own game, ps3 fans didn't use up all the hype space.

That whole idea about who thinks he's better than who only applies to the post of the person you just defended and the other people who think their better than someone because they are "fanboys". You should re-read the post you supported and get back to me.

So sony fans since ps1 have had trouble facing facts? Surely you realize that many of the x360 and wii fanboys now had ps1s and were probably fanboys of the console as well. Ps3 only sold 20 mil vs ps1's 100-120mil. It's pretty obvious thatsome must have dropped away from the PS brand since then but oh wait...it's when the "BS" they're spouting is pro-sony that it's really bad? Have I summed it up perfectly?
