Forums - General - What's the definition of a TRUE fanboy?

Something I notice fanboys do is that they quickly make a thread about any tiny bit of bad news for the competitor. I'm sure I'm not the only one who notices that a certain MS fan makes a lot of negative Sony/Nintendo threads and a certain Sony fan who makes a lot of negative MS/Nintendo threads.

Also, Some of the funniest shit I've ever seen is people trying to change the definition of a "generation" and "winning a generation"


See, I don't think what you described is a fanboy.  It falls more into the category of an asshole...

I don't mind fanboys. I hate ppl that want to ruin your day. Like 50% of the the ppl here. Seriously, why not be happy for your favorite system instead of writing hateful comments about someone else's? What do you call that?

A hater?


Mm Naw..  A hater is a being that failed and can't be happy for someone who succeeds.

I'm a fan not a fanboy, I can admit Re:coded was an average game at best and SE ruined the franchise for a lot of people when you couple a convoluted story and spreading it around every platform they could get their hands on.  The HD collections do help though.

1) Yes
2) Always defending their company, always confrontational, turned a blind eye to their own company's mistakes, attempted to always damage control, made excuses, and always downplayed the competition; constant praise on one side, constant negativity to the other side.

-"Wii U can still easily sell 60 million" (Lucky to get past 15 million)

 


this is what i mean...  Wii U is struggling but that's just hateful.


It's hateful to say the Wii U will be lucky to pass 15m?!   The Gamecube's sales wipe the floor with the Wii U's and it only made it to 22m.  How am I being a fanboy by saying that?

A fanboy is usually as dumb as fuck.

Pretends to be something he isn't, or barely is, like a programmer.

If he wants something that is not coming for is product of choice, he cries.

Someone who spends more time whining online than actually gaming.

Someone who refuses to face reality and reads anything into anything.

To me, it's someone who doesn't accept anything negative about their favorite company/console and can't stand to hear anything positive about companies they don't like.
