Rule number 1:
Never use the word "FANBOY" That could get you banned here.

Most VGChartz users are Sony and Nintendo fans but Xbox ONE was being heavily criticized for very good reasons I believe.


Rule number 1.....We do not talk about

Comes with the internet forum territory. Sony fans are hardly the only guilty party however. I find myself noticing ridicuously biased comments from nintendo, xbox, and pc fans all the time.

People are generally biased in some form or fashion. I think a lot of people get very biased with their video game consoles because they cant afford to get everything. So they develop an affinity for something and push hatred towards competeing products so that they dont feel bad about not owning it.

hmmmm let me see why every gaming website is full of sony fanboys. its because anyone who goes to a gaming website follows the news and it is very clear that sony targets that crowd more than others. so it is only logical the internet is full of sony fanboys

I did a team thing a while back and from the people who actually comment it was about 45% Sony 45% Nintendo and 15% Microsoft. However yes the most vocal members was in fact on the Sony team though.

I do want to point out that this isn't just a VGC thing.  Vocal Sony fans just seem to be on forums more.  Not sure why though.

We are always online

nintendo fans are happy go lucky nerds
xbox fans are mature tech enthusiasts
sony fans are the cool guys who think with thier limbic system

Mods are biased against Sony and they're against FUN (not spam) threads ;(

They rather have millions of DRM/XBONE threads every minute.

The internet is playstation bias. I wouldn't equate it to fanboyism, sony just has a lot of good will for their dedication to gamers from the last few years. People give them the benefit of the doubt whilst microsoft has done the opposite in recent years with weak E3 showings and a lack of ambition where exclusives are concerned.
