The main problem in with this specific case, is that you have said that you assumed that it was the general rule.
So if you make an assumption based on some threads, then other people will also start assuming that you don't own a PS3 because of the erroneous assumption you made.
In this case you backed it up with assumptions, which do not provide a basis to work on, therefore you were questioned (I'm not going to say the "attacker" did it the right way).
If you had done your "research" a bit more, then you would've had more facts and less assumptions and you probably wouldn't have made the statement, nullifying any possible "attack" towards you.
