I feel so ashamed that I thought of the Thundercats when I saw this pic.

Fine! 

I can't wait to see the upcoming bannings.

Or maybe not.  No one got banned in the last NPD thread.

The last NPD thread where a prominent poster got banned was January. 

PS3 pwned 360 and came within thousands of the Wii.  Damage control (360 + Wii) was through the roof.

Those were the good days.

Forgive me. When I said "sentence" I meant "post." Why does the implication that Sony fans would feel the need to irrationally defend PS3 numbers reflect poorly on Sony? Personally, I find Sony to be an incredibly flexible and innovative corporate machine. Why would I attack them?

You attack the PS3 on a daily basis.

Let's be honest here.

I do defend Sony, but not to the death, and I don't attack Microsoft or Nintendo (anymore) for no reason. You on the other hand (like in this thread) do.

I think you may just like arguing though. Because you said that you were going to sleep, and then you trolled.

@ bolded

I defend Sony to the death?

I think most regular posters here will attest to the fact that it has been some time since I regularly had anything negative to say about the PS3. Certainly I find better gaming experiences on the Xbox 360, but I commend Sony on getting the price down, creating a better environment for developers, and getting a couple of AAA titles out for their system.

Am I to take it from the first sentence of your post that you are no longer attempting to claim that I attacked Sony in this thread, or ever, but have moved on to a general argument that I am anti-PS3?

Obviously, I meant Microsoft. I thought you could read between the lines.

We can move to a general argument if you like, but the fact remains that you do attack Sony on a regular basis, including in this thread.


Except he didn't attack Sony in this thread.  He lightly attacked Sony fanboys... which is different.  Though ironically part of the reason fanboyism exists, because people can't seperate themselves from the brand.

Hey lots of profit in the "life brand" mentality though so it keeps getting promoted.  People will buy anything no matter how crappy it is just to feel part of the family. 

Just look at those Nascar Meatsnacks that look like dog treats.  I mean... just eww.

GTA month was much, much funnier, if only because of several promiment anti-VGC/pro-HD posters who had to do backflips to justify their sudden switch in allegiance from NPD.

I would have said that Crazzy would have gotten banned but he already is, so I don't think that there will be any ban-hamma's tonight.
