Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft Forums Dying?

makingmusic476 on 11 June 2010

I blame it partly on a quiet newsweek, but mostly on 3.0.  This was one of the more quiet parts of the forum, and given how much quieter the forums as a whole have become since 3.0, this area is now pretty dead.

I mean, just look at the Sony section.  Under 2.0, threads dedicated to stuff like the MotorStorm 3 announcement wouldn't be struggling to reach a single page.

Honestly, i like it better this way. About the equal amount of useful and insigtful information is being exchanged on the all 3 forums.

However I find that he sony forum has all kinds of pointless rambling and threads. Like who tweeted where and what game outsold which series... yawn!


yeah with ninty and ms fans contributing.

Not denying that we do... but keep in mind its hard to resist participating when LeoJ posts:

"ZOMG PS4 is coming. They found 2 SPUs in the PS3 and are re-launching it as a PS4 with full 3D capabilities!"

I was saying : nothing wrong with yawning threads if they make you contribute, that's one of  the reasons forums exist.

if it weren't for the sony forums everyone would've just kept hitting f5 endlessly....

Calm before the E3 storm, you'll be lucky to see the same thread on the first page 10 minutes after posting.

wait for E3 there's tons of exclusive 360 games that will be shown on E3 that people will be talking about exclusive games we know from Halo Reach, Gears of War 3, Fable 3, Crackdown 2 to games like Death to Spies 3, Sniper Ghost Warrior, Ninety-Nine Nights 2, First Templar, Off Road Drive and completely new games.

plus my all time favourite threads about who won E3 in which sony fans will yet again claim that Sony won E3 because they shown again new Gran Turismo 5 trailer 5th time in a row without announcing any release date...again.
