First of all war has changed,

When 360 sales were soaring, circa 2007-8, this site had a far bigger number of xbox fans than it does now, gloating about the achievements of the underdog. Numbers went down along with MS's support. The same sony bias has been attributed to neogaf as well. But in reality during the first years of the PS3, Sony was vigorously criticized on that board. General census changed when Sony's arrogance went down.

Secondly the soldiers have changed,

We are usually forgetting that for a big part different consoles target different demographics. Sony has the wider audience/appeal of the 3 since they do not specifically focus on a particular group. Nintendo stricked out with the casual gamers this time around and is left with alot of committed 20+ yo nostalgia diehards. The thing with MS is that they have been limiting the focus of the Xbox brand to teen or early teen males which they think is a safer bet. Of course they have been trying to get the "casuals" but that has little to do with passionate online conversationalists.

Concluding, this will probably sound as a stretch to some but these little guys in the photo will not bother with board discussions and they are a big part of MS's pie.
