I would agree with this. PSP and DS don't seem to get enough attention. For instance, for jRPG fans, PSP is really becoming an awesome system as of late. Same with the DS. Most people on this site don't get that in Japan, home consoles play 2nd fiddle to handhelds. It shows, in the sales, but you really have to live in the country for a while to see that first hand.
The only PC fanboys I hate are the cheaters that have to show their l337 hAx0rz skills.
The one thing about Wii and 360 fans is they both have their franchises they worship over anything else. There is always the feeling you can't call your self a 360 fan if you don't like Halo and Gears. I just want to like Lost Odyssey, ToV, and Fable 2. I don't care about console shooters - I like them on PC. For a Nintendo fan, it's Zelda and Mario - which I love both, but I think Nintendo has been weak catering to fans of those games this generation.
With PS3 fans, it's alright to not like Gran Turismo but like LBP and MGS4 - or Vice versa. Each PS3 fan has their game they really hype more than the others. Maybe it all combines to where Wii60 fans see it as "all PS3 fanboys hype all these games."
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
