Just curious.  Anyone who has hated a company every grown out of it?

 

To get things straight -

Fan = someone who really likes a company and praises it.

Fanboy = while liking a company, you also spend time hating another company and take good news from your non preferred company as a threat.

 

For me, there was a time when I really didn't like the Xbox.  I don't like console shooters at all, except a few.  I also don't really care for online multiplayer as I frankly don't like people online - as in I like to keep the racism and homphobia out of my gaming experience. 

 

Then I decided, I would be missing out on games like Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Tales of Vesperia (English version), and Alan Wake. 

Can some of you put away ill feelings toward a console manufacturer to play the games you want?  In the grand scheme of things, they are pretty small investments compared to bills, house / apartment, cars, girlfriends (I went there), etc.

I'm a fan and not a fanboy then, I will never spend time looking for infos on a console that I don't like or hate (there are no such a console in my mind) I on the other hand like my PS3 and hate when people talk shit about it when it's groundless. So these people call me fanboy, and I find it quite cute. :)
