Hmmm.....seeing how this topic has floundered FAR from it's roots, I really shouldn't chime in. But really, nobody is truly "unbiased", but you can be fair-minded while having a preference.
Rol should go after the entire site, as they all have a bias. But not everyone is unfair about it, or downplays/trash talks a brand/console just because they can. And despite preferences, many of the posters here own all of the consoles. They just prefer one over others, which there's absolutely nothing wrong with.
But long story short, the topic has been pointlessly derailed far enough, and with my bit out, I'm stepping out here. Just thought you should know the difference between a true trouble maker and posters with just preferences.

CGI you have been removed from the list, you are completely right i just want them to admit they are, we all have a bias and honestly my real target is mummel is does come off as unbias when he is. His rant about the wii proved that to me when earlier i believe in that same thread he claimed he isn't because he plays on his pc more.
PS CGI i have actually grown to like you, you are pretty reasonable and you don't resort to childs play like kowen who still hasn't addressed rol post to him

Two things;
Who are you and have you been tracking me for my entire stay on Vgchartz?
Why am I on your list?
I don't see myself as someone who tries to hide bias, my PC/PS3 preference is no secret, nor do I make it one.

1. no i don't track ur post lol, do you know what post im talking about, the rant where you said something like i was drinking some coffee and got alittle strunge up
2. yea you do try to come off as unbias, ur preference towards pc and ps3 is obvious but what about ur hate towards the wii, you have plenty of comments bashing the wii, but turn around and say u have nothing against it, i just want an answer from these posters, but definitely you, so do you hate the wii yes or no?

I don't hate the Wii, I just don't love it, if that makes sense. I've contemplated buying one for ages but I somehow keep postponing it. The price of the console itself and especially peripherals is probably part of the reason, the price of 1st party titles another. I have owned every Nintendo home console since and including the NES and have been playing them all my life (got my NES in 1988) and I will eventually buy a Wii for sure.
I actually did hate the Wii at some point, back when I joined the site. I guess one could say that I just didn't understand the product, as opposed to now when I've realised that it has a place in a gamers collection simply for offering something different. The HD consoles have lacked the wow factor for me and I find myself growing bored of most games that come out. Lately, I've realised that what I truly do hate is the casualization (if there is such a word) of old, loved genres of mine, namely RTS, shooters and RPG's rather than more casual games that are built as such from the bottom up.
Games with no discernable storylines, 100 hour campaigns and photorealism certainly have their appeal, what I don't appreciate is developers trying to blend the casual with the old core, watering down the very essence of entire genres.
I guess you could say that I've changed my opinion heavily since coming here over three years ago, everything seemed so clear cut back then, the PS3 would be awesome and the Wii was no good because it was not the Gamecube and I didn't care for the 360 since I didn't like the x-box. Now, though, my overall interest for console gaming has waxed and waned and I'm starting to see all three consoles as equals, equally unintersting, that is. Still, there's no denying the fact that I still consider one console overall better, if only for the increased funcionality over the others (the PS3). The games library of the HD consoles is fair imo, nothing spectacular, the games library for the Wii is not of adequate standard for a market leader having had several years on the market, especially where 3rd parties are concerned.
I started playing PC games for real about 6-7 years back when I got my first (shitty) PC, and did some PC gaming back in the golden era (early-to mid nineties) and each year I grow more distant to consoles and, for the life of me, I can only see consoles as something that is sabotaging PC gaming. I will end up owning all three consoles this gen, simply out of love for gaming, but I'll look back on this gen as the most disappointing one by far.
