It's understandable why the PS3 base is the most vocal. The PS3 had a slow start, it made things tough to be a Playstation loyalist. The 360 had the head start, third-party devs preferred the 360 because it is easier to program for compared to the cell, which took them time to get used to. The 360 made online console gaming mainstream, which was a big part of the console's success. It introduced achievements. These factors made it tempting to get a 360 instead of waiting for a PS3 And now that things have vastly improved for the PS3 (third-parties moving more towards multi-platform development since the improving PS3 install base makes it worth their while, porting formerly 360 exclusives for the same reason, Sony putting out lots of first-party games, PSN improving, making trophies mandatory since 2009 with new games), you'd expect the base to be ecstatic. The PS3 situation is much better now than it used to be and I think they have a right to feel happy that their console is doing well. They don't have to worry about games anymore.
But the fanboys who actively bash the 360 and its userbase and say stuff like, "oh the 360 sucks, it only has halo, gears, forza, etc. Have fun with RRoD" Those are the vocal elements that the PS3 base could do without. If you don't like the 360 software library or you're really that paranoid about RRoD, don't buy a 360. Or sell your 360 if you got one and aren't pleased with it.
