Sadly the X1 fans did not venture out of their empire to discuss them not venturing out of their empire.... sad panda!

But yeah I personally don't like those PS4/Vita/X1/PC only threads that go on for 1000+ pages, they are rather ummm... not sure what the word would be, intimidating I guess, to jump into and say stuff in a thread which has gone on so long, and most of the time if I'm going to jump into a thread I like to read over it to make sure I'm not posting something that was already said if possible..... that is not possible if a thread is going for a few years lol.

I can understand the draw of it tho, I would think if those threads are just the users of that particular brand then they won't have shitty trolls going there complaining about how they don't like some feature of PSN+ or XBLG while clearly having a sig which suggests they are a massive fan of the rival brand anyway and they are just feigning being upset for the sake of trying to draw a rise from fans of the service, see that a bit, tis boring to read.

Agreed. Personally, I am not a big fan of mamoth threads, if there's any real discussion to be had in the thread it's just overwhelming IMO. 

When Jay used to run the Xbox one he would keep the OP up to date some times with the deals with gold and stuff but now more often than not the OP is left alone for weeks and months in a lot of those threads, I used to just pop into the Xbox one to read what games were coming up for free on XBLgold but now just opt for a google search rather than reading through the last 20 pages of specific brand/console... I fucking hate the term completely, but circle jerking is the shortest way I could describe how I see those giant 1 brand/console threads.

- Just to clarify I just mean those threads in general and not the Xbox empire in the slightest as the only one which is like that in my eyes, just that if a game is worth chatting about on your system of choice surely it should be able to stand on its own two feet in a general gaming thread and maybe advertise what is available on your system to others, surely if the game/sales are good enough you'll want to hear what your console war rivals have to say about the great stuff on your system of choice, Imo ofc, I guess there are people who would rather just interact solely with those who have shared interests with them and not hear what other parties have to say at all. I'm not going to try to tell others how to use a forum that they already use and enjoy! Sorry if my post sounded like people should change, it was more to reflect how I myself post.
