Forums - General - PS3 fanboys and acceptance?

Yep xboxfanboys are certainly objective. They are particularly objective when they say things like:

"Folklore is mediocre, while Blue Dragon, Two Worlds, Eternal Sonata and Lost Odyssey are awesome!!"

Objective words there from Starcraft, discussing the current RPG's on PS3 and 360 (the quote is not word perfect).

 Yeah Tombi I loved that statement.  I can't believe he threw that steaming pile of crap "Two Worlds" on that list. Then the other three were within 5 points of the metacritic score of Folklore.  If he likes them better great, but stating it like it's fact irks me.

 OT: I was not around here that long ago, but I'm happy to hear that the situation is better than before.

I've noticed lately, that the sites PS3 fanboys have switched from denial to acceptance. Atleast by looking at their forum behavior. For example Leo-J, Legend11 and even Crazzyman doesn't seem to be that crazy anymore. So tell me, have you accepted the fact that PS3 isn't going to end up winning this gen? Or are you confident that now that PS3 is doing better than last year, sales will jump up to roof and PS3 ends up winning? Waiting for Home and LBP to be the savior? Or MGS4 perhaps? Or were you just bashed too many times? A year ago, when i joined VGC, there was pretty often some PS3 fanboy claiming that Wii fans take Xbots side and vice versa, when Wii fans and Xbots just tried to be (most of the time) objective. Reason for this propably was that neither group was expecting their favourite console to be on top, while PS3 fanboys took PS3 win for granted. Now i see the same objectivity in the PS3 fanboys, which is nice, since i've noticed that most of you are actually very nice people, who can joy when something good happens for their favourite console, without making a dozen "OMG!1 t3h console X is doomed1!!" ranting threads full of false facts. Or have i just missed something? And no, this is not a bashing thread, i'm actually giving credit here, so let's not bash anyone.

 I got to the name Legend11 and disregarded the rest of your post as BS.  Now if you knew anything you would kow that Legend11 is one of the most delusional 360 supporters that VGchartz has, if not the most delusional.

Lol at people saying "We know"... god are you people proud of this? fair enough that you like the system but some people take it like they are fucking Sony CEO's or Sony shareholders.

From a smart dude from another forums i go to -

"Fair enough if you support a football team, but why would anyone in their right mind display loyalty to a corporation like Microsoft or Sony (or Sega or Nintendo)? Games is games, and turning a blind eye to the faults of a profit making business, and dismissing other brands in support of your own, is at best blinkered, and, at worst, cripplingly sad."

Well, this isn't exactly related to topic, but about that sports comparision; sports teams are today mostly businesses, some even listed in the stockmarket. They either make profit for themselves or for the corporations that own them. Teams being non-profit making instances is far away in the past these days, so actually supporting a sports team is supporting a company, just like buying a console or a game, or feeling joy for your console of choice "winning" the VGC weekly numbers. Metaphorically speaking, people like us in VGC, can consider this whole console race as a championship and manufacturers as teams. It's actually not any different when you think of it. You can even bet your VG$ in prediction league, and after all, it's not going to really affect your life whether Nintendo or Sony wins this time, or will ManU win champions league, but it's just fun to watch and be on your favourites side. @Leo-J: Hey, i wasn't calling you with names. @mztazmz: OK then, let's call it propability by historical sales, current sales, difference in target groups, difference in pricepoints and variety of software. Better? You had some valid arguments, but there are more games coming in the "Wii series", we know that Zelda Wii is in developement, we'll see new Pikmin on Wii, Colosseum/XD type of Pokemon propably hits the Wii, strong Kid Icarus rumors, Mario Kart isn't out yet, Wii Fit out only in Japan, Brawl out in Japan and NA, WiiWare is waiting for it's release, Virtual Console is expanding, dev support switching to Wii, Wii has the lead in sales and is just making more gap, two of three biggest 1st party titles on Wii aren't that old yet and Sony's first party isn't comparable to Nintendo and it doesn't have as much IP:s to be pulled out of pocket as Nintendo has.

Ei Kiinasti.

Eikä Japanisti.

Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.

 

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

So you see... even members agree with me

Banned... for my comment... your kidding me right?

What i said wasn't troll it was pure fact, as per usual ignorant mods banning members for useless reasons, all i said was that fanboys take these things like they were CEO of consoles, and i bet this account will be banned too, oh well, please Perma ban my Jessman account, i will have nothing to do with this site ever again, i like most members here, but after being banned for a "Troll" comment no refelected onto any specific person, or group, it was about fanboys all together.

Seeya Vgchartz, nice knowing you.

 

You were banned for PS3fags comment, not because you have a problem with the PS3 or whatever.

If you have a problem with your banning feel free to take it up with the person that banned you (me) or a higher up mod (Ben, DKII, or Stof). Do not come back and bitch on the forums about it.

-edit-

You were banned for the comments in this thread, not anything you said in this thread. 



I didn't want to see the PS3 win, I just wanted to see MS in last place - and it looks like I might be getting my wish this year.



ps3 Fans will never accept defeat until it happens. We have faith in the ps3 and in time will prove to be the best comeback on vg history :P Leo is not a real Sony fan!!!! Legend 11 is MS fan boy and crazyman is just himself :) Crazy :P

Ps3 has shown more gain. Why would ps3 fans say that the ps3 has no chance. it's still early days. The Wii could come last. Who knows.



  Unleash The Beast!  

End of 2011 Sales: Wii = 90mil, 360 = 61mil, PS3= 60mil

 I gotta say as much as Crazzyman is crazy he has very good arguments and all his predictions make sense.

 this year??? It's almost a certainty that it will not happen this year if it even does happen at all...ever

First of all, the 1st quarter of this year will be a draw and the PS3 has to make up a lot of ground (several MILLION) in a couple months??? It's simply not gonna happen this year.....still a possibility in the future though
