I've noticed lately, that the sites PS3 fanboys have switched from denial to acceptance. Atleast by looking at their forum behavior. For example Leo-J, Legend11 and even Crazzyman doesn't seem to be that crazy anymore. So tell me, have you accepted the fact that PS3 isn't going to end up winning this gen? Or are you confident that now that PS3 is doing better than last year, sales will jump up to roof and PS3 ends up winning? Waiting for Home and LBP to be the savior? Or MGS4 perhaps? Or were you just bashed too many times? A year ago, when i joined VGC, there was pretty often some PS3 fanboy claiming that Wii fans take Xbots side and vice versa, when Wii fans and Xbots just tried to be (most of the time) objective. Reason for this propably was that neither group was expecting their favourite console to be on top, while PS3 fanboys took PS3 win for granted. Now i see the same objectivity in the PS3 fanboys, which is nice, since i've noticed that most of you are actually very nice people, who can joy when something good happens for their favourite console, without making a dozen "OMG!1 t3h console X is doomed1!!" ranting threads full of false facts. Or have i just missed something? And no, this is not a bashing thread, i'm actually giving credit here, so let's not bash anyone.

For one thing I don't consider myself a fanboy nor do any that own a PS3 or other console for that matter. So speaking objectivly in the manner you were proves that you are the narrow minded one seeing in black and white. Anyone rational including the people you listed (except Legend; he doesn't have a PS3) realizes that the PS3 really doesn't have a chance of overtaking the Wii. What is very possible is the reality of over-taking the 360 within a relativly short peiod of time. I would have to say that the fight was always mainly against the 360 and when the Wii launched we basically counted our losses and moved on. If you were really giving credit you wouldn't have spent 90% of the paragraph talking about "PS3 fanboys...making a dozen ranting threads full of false facts." Are you kidding; "false facts"! Those two words make you a moron. Nice job

About narrow-mindedness, i never mentioned that owning a console makes you a fanboy. There's a big difference even between a fan and a fanboy. If you can accept facts and live with them, you can be considered a fan, but if not, that makes you a fanboy. Owning a console doesn't make you a fan or fanboy, and neither you need to own a console to be a fan or a fanboy. As for false facts, like made up evidence, twisting things etc. If you want to say FUD instead, it's fine with me, but i think it doesn't give the right impression from methods used. What you said about people realising that PS3 can't overtake Wii, is just the thing i wrote in the OP, it has been so until lately. And calling crazzyman reasonable... Ehh... Well, that's why i mentioned him and gave him credit. And i gave the credit for improving, not for the past behavior. @Zero Hero: Well, the way i see it, is that Wii fans and 360 fans haven't changed that much. Of course generally the acceptance of others have increased among every group. But the reason why it took the PS3 fanboys, is that they used to be the noisiest.
