When on a sales site... yeah... i'd say deserved arrogance would be dependent on how well your console is doing. Just how deserved arrogance on a basketball court would be decided based on... well basketball ability. You can be the best brain surgeon in the world... but if your jump shots weak you don't have anything to trash talk about. The PS3 has no real objective on which it can argue it's the best. Heck it can't even argue review scores when the review system is broken. If you like your system sure... that's fine. Being a fanboy about it when you've got nothing to back it up though... that's just stupid... i can understand someone who's a Steelers fan bragging about how good the Steelers are doing. I can't understand a Browns fan bragging about how well the browns are going to do. If it was just somoene saying "Hey i love the Browns" sure fine... your a fan of the team... that's totally ok even if the browns do suck and lose a lot of games... maybe they're entertaining to watch for you. However when you start talking about how the Browns are going to dominate the AFC North... seriously... just shut up. For example.... name a worse fanboy then Crazzyman. Go ahead, you can't do it. He's just that bad. |
Crazzyman is a joke account created to entertain us and he does so often.
Still, I don't think having a console in your house gives you any more leverage to talk shit regardless of it's position as bestselling or worst selling.
For example, Levi's sell a lot more jeans than diesel. Does that give a "fan" of levi's jeans more room to talk "shit" than the "fan" of diesel jeans? What is victory anyway in this "console war"? In your sports analysis, it's pretty obvious, in this console discussion...not so much.
The way I see it, anybody simply out to put anything down or especially in cases where they've no experience with what they're putting down just sucks as an individual.
Like you said, this is a sales site and we do a lot of analyses here so getting mad at people for making sales predictions (however outlandish) or predictions of possible changes that could boost X system's sales doesn't make much sense either.
Just to add (since today is MLK day in the US), you do realize that the mass market is not always right about what the best choice is right?Saying the ps3 has no objective to claim "best" is invalid irregardless of the mass markets choice. Why? Simple example, back in the 60s in the US during the civil rights era, if the masses had been allowed to vote on whether blacks should be liberated or not, what do you think the turnout would've been? The masses aren't always right, it's what an individual wants that is right. It's up to each person to define what console is "best" to them. No console can claim the title over the other.
