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

The ultimate MS fanboys are the ones who make entire pointless threads / arguments about how PS instant game collection games aren't free, and threads about how Sony makes bad exclusives, which everyone who games knows is not true, when they openly admit never owning Sony products.

Ultimate Sony fanboys are the ones who were making thread after thread specifically about how bad MS is for their Digital and used games policies even after they removed them, stating the removal didn't matter, despite being the basis of their whole argument. Also the threads about RROD when that clearly was not directly the fault of MS.

Ultimate Nintendo fanboys are the ones who can't accept any flak about Nintendo whatsoever, but create tons of threads about any small Nintendo news that are almost always completely based on opinions, including threads that can simply substitute MS or Sony for Nintendo stated by another "expert" and still be true. There are tons of Nintendo people on this forum that do this.

Now, I find a TRUE fanboy doesn't even consider the competitions pros.

I mean I at least research PS4 and the games it offers. I do give credit to where its due. But some........if it isn't on their console its crap. End of story. Won't bother to read a review or acknowledge what a rival IP offers.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Fan - someone passionate about a company/product, can see and call out faults when they're there.
Blind Fan - someone passionate about a company/product but will refuse to see any bad/negatives.
Fanboy - Same as above but will trash the competition.


blind fan and fanboy are the samething.

Well blind fan is one that loves one company but doesn't diss the competition, I can't really think of an example tho.

lol not really since they are blind, they will make things like metroid prime looks better then 90% of 360/ps3 games, or i played my wii more then my ps3/360 combined.



1. Probably

2. Defended the undefendable about their company. Showed extreme loyalty and rewrote anything criticised of such company to meet their aims. They also want the competition to fail.

I guess i'm a fan rather than a fanboy then because i game on Playstation and Nintendo systems and love them for their games. While, i just let Xbox get on with it. I don't want it to fail either because competition is good.



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030
