I have trouble understanding why anyone would hate a product because he/she disliked some of the people who own the product. Would you hate steak because you read threads online from people you disliked who were fans of steak? I like steak because it tastes good to me, not because anyone else likes or dislikes it. I think a lot of people who are fans of the PS3 blame 360 fans for their 360 angst when actually there is a more subtle reason... when we make a choice and a larger group of people make a different choice, a little voice in the back of our heads tells us that perhaps we made the wrong choice, and that makes us defensive and more sensitive to negative comments regarding our choice. That's just the way people are. I'm more interested in the facts regarding consoles than in trying to prove to myself that I made the "right" choice... in fact, I will probably end up with all 3 eventually. I've also noticed that there are several posters whose comments seemed to become less defensive when they ended up owning 2 or 3 of the consoles... it took the pressure off to justify to themselves that they hadn't made an expensive mistake. |
Look it's like this. At the start of this generation I had no opinion on the Xbox 360. I followed Sony since the PS1 days and PS3 was my choice of consol. I had nothing bad to say about Microsoft, PS3 was for me and as long as I had that I was happy. Then all these threads started by Xbox Fanboys saying THE PS3 IS DOOMED, PS3 owners wasted there money, haha we robbed this exclusive, PS3 is in last place, I give Sony 2 years before they discontinue PS3.
A full year of that coming from very arrogant and stupid fanboys voicing there opinions and then using ad homien attacks on anyone trying to talk facts is enough to turn anyone against a consol. Who want's to be part of that comunity.
I did plan on owning all 3 consols at the start of this generation just like I owned a Gamecube along with a PS2 last gen. See how thats changed. I've become a fanboy myself because of fanboys. LOL your whole steak moral didn't really make much sense by the way cas it's a totally different thing going on to what you discribed lol but I know what your trying to say but unfortunatly my hate for Xbox did start with Fanboys
