Sony fans are more plentiful on these forums, because misery loves company. The reason that they are miserable is actually two fold. They have basically lost the argument for over half a decade now, and the company that they are backing has lost every single battle it has fought. They cannot leave satisfied until they get some kind of a victory.

Other fan bases have a number of victories under their belts. So they are well fed and vindicated. No longer having anything to prove. Seeing as their company already beat Sony, and beat Sony very soundly. So a lot of the manpower in the other two groups gathered up their trophies, and moved on to find some new form of amusement elsewhere. Lets be honest about something. Sony just went from one failure to the next all last generation. The last time most of these Sony fans got to actually feel really good about their brand was prior to the launch of the PS3.

Everything else has been a hold the line against the invaders scenario. Most of them probably expected to get another easy victory from Sony, and instead they found themselves besieged. While the Barbarians pillaged the country side. Another generation makes for a nice clean slate, and another chance for them to get the victory they desperately crave. However I think a lot of them also know that the situation is still desperate, and that Sony may has as little as one or two chances to pull off any kind of a victory, and those chances may come and go real quickly. So it is equal parts hyping themselves up for batter, and getting off one last hurray. Just in case they wont get another chance.
