Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Am I the only one getting tired of seeing so much X360 hate on this forum?

I just think the reason people hate on the 360 is because they feel threatened by it. Anybody that owns a 360 owns it because they wanted to play HD videogames online. The proof is in the attach rate. The proof is in the number of Xbox Live members. It bothers fanboys of the other 2 consoles because Microsoft is a competitor this generation, rather than just being the new kid on the block. Whenever they blindly attack the 360 without facts or a rational opinion, all it does is make them look insecure and jealous of the 360's success.

yep microsoft will dedinitely be a contender this gen

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

There are a lot of fans on this forum with a victim complex. Seriously, get over it. It's really not that bad here - there are enough people willing to have intelligent discussion that you can ignore that 5% which are entirely idiotic.

Also, I'm sorry, but the majority of calls of "everyone is bashing x!!!" come after someone has made a grandiose, ill-informed statement that got shot down. The only reason that doesn't happen as much to Wii fans is there is a critical mass of people making grandiose, ill-informed statements, such that they can ignore getting shot down.

I think the amount of negativity you display towards a system you dont own may be directly proportional to how happy you are with the system you do own. 

That being said I dont really notice any issues with the Wii diehards, but the PS3 guys...... 

 


 



PS360 ftw!

Currently playing..........

Gears of War 2, GTA IV Lost and Damned, Little Big Planet (Yes I said I had no interest but my girl wanted to try it and we did and now Im hooked )

So what I'm asking is 2-3 fold:

Xbox 360 owners: do you tire of what's been going on? Or am I just crazy-biased and see everything in some wierd shade of Microsoft-green, and am totally wrong and need corrected?

Should people that have absolutely no interest in the Xbox 360 be allowed to come here and post anti-360 comments for no reason, then degenerate a typically positive newsworthy thread into fanboy drivel?

Likewise, shouldn't we, as X360 owners, be allowed to discuss our games, our way, with whatever we want to? I think Nintendo fans should get the same luxury in their forums. I don't think anti-SMG threads by myself in their forum should be allowed, ever. Thats why I'd never do it.


  1.  No, I'm more tired of people making stupid topics like this.  If you don't like a comment, just pretend it didn't happen and move on.
  2. People should be allowed to post in whatever thread they like.  Before I had a PS3 I regularly posted in PS3 threads because I like to pay attention to all games.  What they shouldn't be able to do is openly flame people for no reason or just generally break the forum rules.
  3. You can discuss whatever you want, but you can't really make it exclusive only to 360 owners.  This is a forum and it is the internet-- things will go off topic and there's nothing you can really do about it.  Everyon is entitled to their opinions, even misguided ones, and that's just how things are.

 No, most Live users are generally worse than the people you find on Digg.  I actually rarely even plug my mic in just so I don't have to be expected to engage in the conversations.

Thank you for illustrating my point.

No, I think he created his own point that puts a lot of holes in your own. Really, answer his question instead of a smug response. Have you ever tried to communicate with people over X Box live?


 

Thank you for illustrating my point again, but seeing as the answer is not obvious to you I will explain. See we are on this website called vgchartz. Xbox Live is a service plan. Your probably referring to a voice chat setting in some game where the players love to trash talk. That is actually off topic and combative. Way to insult this community by comparing it to that community, and way to stray from the topic at hand by tossing out insults. Once again thank you for illustrating my point again, and please scream a reply in all caps since that is such a civil way to behave.

I figured you were referring to Microsoft fans in general.  If you were referring to Microsoft fans on this website, you might as well have just said Mr. Stickball.

 

" I think the problem is this 360 fans are on average are far more mature then their fan brethren loyal to other consoles. "

 

Based on that sentence, it's not really clear you are referring to specifically the Xbox fans on this site.  Sorry for the misunderstanding.
