| yo_john117 said: Sure he's biased as hell and many of his actual forum posts are somewhat childish but as far as news comes he posts whatever he can find. I've seen him post plenty of pro PS3 threads. It's just that people on this site HATE negative news for Sony. And they tend to attack the only guy balsy enough to post it because most of the other PS3 fans wouldn't ever dream of doing. Sure he probably enjoys it for 2 reasons (1: because some Sony fans freak whenever he does that and 2. because Sony fans in general don't like bad Sony news) But honestly who the hell cares really!? It's news and there is nothing wrong with reporting it. If he weren't on this site I wouldn't hear about half the news that he posts. But when it all comes down to it ils411 is extremely Sony biased (he's lightened up though ever since he doesn't have a PS3 anymore) so of course he's mad about it, you are decently Sony biased so you think it's bad, whilst I am decently MS biased so I don't see what you two are seeing. As far as nikkom goes though I'm pretty sure he's not very biased to anything. And yes i'm in a pissed off mood right now so that's why you are getting such a harsh no bullshit response. |
I've only been following his behaviour recently, it's far from just a coincidence. He does post a lot of news though, doesn't mean anything though, he could just be a points whore or he is just trying to dilute the pro Xbox 360 and negative Ps3 threads with other news. It's nice to know that you can see what he is doing too, I bet Nsanity is loving it right now. He isn't being ballsy and posting negative Ps3 news, he is CREATING negative Ps3 news (in the case of mocking Ps3 owners over the reactions to EG's 8/10 UC3 score) or posting negative news from unreliable sources. People don't like reporting negative news about their console in general, only a few people do it (or in the Nintendo section's case, EVERYBODY does it).
As for people on this site hating negative SONY news (or people thinking that SONY fans are unreasonable and loud), that card has been pulled out too often recently and frankly, it's bullshit. I've seen Microsoft "fans" freak out over the smaller things on this website, they ALL act the same, the only difference is the Xbox 360 fans are slightly outnumbered, therefore making the Ps3 "fans" seem louder.
There is something wrong with what he is doing, it causes unneccesary arguments and it pisses off people who spot his little game, like me. I don't have a problem with the news he is posting, I have a problem with his obvious agenda.
As for ils411, he probably is heavily biased, I haven't seen him round much. I was just saying that he had a point though, and I can fully understand why he is pissed.
As for me being moderately SONY biased, I don't think biased is the right word. It's true that I prefer the PS3 and its games but that's a preference, not a bias. I never let my preferences cloud my judgement and I always see things for what they are. For example, I wouldn't be more likely to by a game if it was exclusive, nor would I enjoy the game more because of the fact it is exclusive. The only bias I have is against Microsoft as a company (especially their PR department) and unreasonable Xbox 360 fans or fanboys, I generally have a short fuse with them, which is what you said.
Don't worry, everybody has their bad days. You are still being far more reasonable than the majority of other people on the internet.
