Corporate and game fanboyism and console isolation are some of those final things that make a lot of people hesitant to actually admit they are gamers, especially online. The sooner they are burned out of existence (hopefully with fire), the sooner people will actually understand that gaming is about games, not about some bizarre and very dated notion that 'if you're not with us, you're against us'.

Take the step into the wider world, Gilgamesh, and chances are you'll be happier for it.

Why limit yourself to one platform or brand? Each comsoles has its own spectactacular games, as well as some good games and garbage. If you have all the consoles then you will have access to all of the spectacular games, the best of the best.

In my opinion, the fanboy mentality exists so that people can justify not buying one system or another. You can like one system over another and nit be a fanboy, but refusing to buy a system because of loyalty to a brand is just your mind doing some mental juditsu to your logic!

That depends on what makes you happy about being a gamer.


Is it the games?

Is it the success of your preferred company?

Is it the failure of competing companies?


If the answer only contains the games then yes, you would be a happier gamer.

stay loyal to Sony. it's the mafia, and you can never leave the family. as a long time (NES) supporter of ninty, and disappointed in the Wii, and GC. i can say the Wiiu just may be the thing to bring me back to ninty. ninty is not yhe enemy.

and as for the Xbox. your not missing anything. the war will never end. Xbox = GEARS and nothing more.

Sony PS. never leave the collective.

Simplicity and settings are king. The XMB is easy to navigate by being comprised of lists divided by category while being represented by icons and text. The PS3 has way more settings you can adjust than any of the other consoles. You'd be surprised by the level of adjustments you can do on the PS3. This kind of basic set up with heavy customization is very attractive to me.

Please do tell me how i can arrange the order of my games to my liking... It may be a pet-peeve but we can't can we?

OT: happier... probably broke...certainly

a little warning though : You'd probably feel the need to contribute on all forums here so that might leave you less time to play ;P

It sounds like you want to and just want approval from other people. Go for it, you know you want to.

By creating folders and edited each title to that folders name and...PRESTO. Though not in the most accessible way and I find it more trouble than its worth and just use the PS3, PS2, PS1, Minis folder set up.

It might not be exactly like that but test out some triangle button next time you are in your games, and use the square button to switch between how games are displayed.

IDK, Fanboys are always happy with whatever game their company throws at them. So even if they threw shovelware or terrible games you would still like it. But if you branch out you would not like bad games as much. You would end up more unhappy about bad games and only seek good games.

anyone that attaches themselves to a brand is being retarded and has fallen to the for the marketers goal
