Yep.  The tide has officially CHANGED.  But not in the obvious way (sales numbers), but in another more relevant way.

Now the tenor of these forums will switch from the majority PS3 fanboys hi-fiving and celebrating with 'Mission Accomplished' banners while the small subset of 360 fanboys exercising futility in trying to balance things out with 'wait for the fabled 360 slim' chorus sang in unison.  Now the roles reverse and the PS3 fanpire on these boards turn defensive in a thundering barrage of strawman arguments, childish insults and selective reasoning while the 360 fanbellion ride a wave of premature hope for a return to a more civilized age.

It is a cycle that has repeated for 3 years, with the roles alternating annually.  Will this be the year the cycle breaks and both sides come to step back and look at the success that everyone has achieved?  Or will the flames of ignorant obliviousness perpetuate this cycle of ineffectual faux communication?

So far I have yet to see a bunch of "childish insults" on this thread.  I would imagine their would be a lot of bannings if that were the case.  And "selective" reasoning and discussions are the reasons we even have these boards.  If we all thought and believed the same it would be a very boring forum.  I think you're just blowing things out of proportion.  PS3 guys see this trend not being able to sustain itself, while 360 guys think it can.  What's the big deal?
