Forums - Gaming - A new breed of fanboy that is on the rise and needs to be recognised!

I think you're describing a hater, so there's no real need to come up with a new term.

Im a reverse Sony fan, I only play my PS4 with my backs turned to the screen.

I do the same with my WiiU but since the gamepad has a screen on it it prevents me from going 100% reverse mode, its only pseudo-reverse wich is an even more complex and well developped breed of fanboy.

Now if Im using remote play on my Vita while going reverse PS4 mode than it becomes so hard to understand the layers of fanboyism involved in playing PS4 remotely on the Vita with you backs turned to the screen that ppls mind would explode if I tried to explain.

What I got out of this is that we are all fanboys; single console and multi-console owners alike. Your point is also inductive to those who own all consoles/platforms too.

What about people who are fans a multiple consoles and bash all of the console manufacturers? I'm a Sony fanboy but I don't praise everything they do like a lot of people on here do. I have no problem bashing the company for their incompetence, which is on a regular basis.

I think criticism is definitely a good thing. There's way too many posters here that instantly downplay any bad news of their company of choice...on all three sides really. The worst are the ones that criticize one console manufacturer for doing one thing, and yet turn around and downplay it when their company of choice does the exact same thing. Ridiculous.

@Topic: Like it's been said, these are just haters. Some people get more enjoyment out of hating one brand than liking another. I personally think it seems a bit depressing to be so negative...but perhaps I just can't empathize with these users.

This thread is so cute. It's like a kid with rich parents who buy him everything suddenly understanding where money comes from.

The people you are describing are known as haters. We Nintendo fans have been all too aware of their existence for many years.

We cant call them haters

 

It's too cliche. We need a new word for them. Also, you said that you have been aware of these level 2 fanboy for a while being that you are a Nintendo fan? Give me an example of 1 in a PM really quick that does this to Nintendo. Dont post it in here because the mods will get you

That's a contradiction because you claim to be a fanboy but dont act like 1..so uhh yeah

You just gave a very long detailed thread on describing a troll. A troll may be blatant/obvious, a troll may be subtle/stealth, a troll will post negative, sarcastically, a troll will be annoying. An anti-fan boy is a troll!
