Can we stop with the overzealous moderation? You're essentially performing lobotomy on the community making the dialogue monotonous.

What's left is just precise scientific and politically correct language void of emotion and subtext.

Let people speak their passions and their opinions.

Edit: Have anyone seen the movie Equilibrium? It's premised on a future dystopian society where displays of emotions are considered crimes. It's really scary and sad at the same time to see the type of cultural bleach that's going on with this mod team. Seems like every controvertible topic has to be sterilized because heaven forbid we express our conflicting view points and feelings. 

I don't understand the social media policy of this site. Why even have forums if you're afraid of people freely and creatively exchanging ideas and opinions. Are you so shocked that language can be emotionally charged especially considering the traditional rivalry these products and companies have engendered? I don't get it. 


Moderation seems fine to me.  You can speak your opinions with passion as long as you arent a jerk about it.

I have not laughed so hard in a while.

It was clear the casuals weren't coming back to the wii u. Playstation (1-3) has sold more consoles than anyone by such a margin I don't see how it would be a surprise they won 8th gen. It was perfect storm against ps3 last gen. Once it was announced ps4 was $399 ps4 was guaranteed to sell the most ww. I had ps4 with a 55/45 win in na this gen. That might fall to 52/48 by gen end, but either way it's a huge win for playstation to take back their other home they established in the 5th and 6th gen.

Ehm most of these aren't that far out... OP quoted mummelman on the best saying : "selling the pelt before the bear is shot" OP you are doing it.
Not sure why such an attempt to rile up an other fanbase is still open, expecially when some of the post contradict with the title.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

do not create threads, posts or signatures just to bait people of a specific fan group. Bait threads will be locked and you will be moderated for them. If you spend a lot of time making hit-and-run negative threads or posts about a specific platform you will also be moderated at the discretion of the moderators.

"PS4 has no chance to win America. Once Xbox One drops price to $399 combined with Titanfall and Halo N.America will be Xbox territory. 


Guess you can Quote me when I turn out to be wrong, but I actually agree with this one.....well, at least if they drop to $400 quick enough.

Xbox One has been selling verry well in NA considering it's 50-100$ more expensive.  If they drop the price to 400$ at E3, then I predict that Xbox One will take back NA. by christmas.

I know some people have been saying "well its already 400$ technically", but the problem is that a lot of coustomers still don't know about some of the deals going on at retailers, and even then, the PS4 still has a lower sticker price.

"bait people of a specific fan group"

Bold is the key words there. It was put in place so people couldn't make threads saying shit like "All ps fanboys thought LBP will sell 10mil LT." However, it has ALWAYS been allowed to make a thread like, "Leo-J said LBP will sell 10mil LT. He was WAYYYYY off"

he (OP) only quoted people posting in the Xbox nation. We also had some Sony fans doing terrible predictions but those are convienently left out
