@ seece

I think it's the other way around, especially vivid 360 fans in general seem very aggressive.

I think this in part may be due to the PS3's userbase being more mature in general.

People complain a lot about behaviour on XBox Live for instance.

I agree.

And this thread proves they aren't the only aggressive ones. I never see things like that from PS3 or Nintendo fans.

 What do you mean there is no proof that sony is getting killed financially?

THEY HAVE NEVER MADE A PROFIT ON THE PS3.

The ps3 wasted all the ps2 profits and the company as a whole is expected to report a 2 BILLION DOLLAR LOSS for fiscal year 2008.

What´s lame is how all the PS3 and 360 fanboys keep taking jabs at each other, when this 'war' between the HD systems is a 'farse' save for fanboy and corporate bragging.

In past generations , 3rd place and even 2nd could cause a system to get either few or practically no 3rd party titles....that was the real 'danger' for people who only owned the "loser" systems.

Since the current generation is a whole different beast, where both PS3 and 360 keep getting the vast majority of the same 'big core' 3rd party titles, no matter how often they change places, I don´t see what´s the point in taking this 'battle' to the extreme.

Being the 'loser' systems sales wise, this has not translated into bad 3rd party support.

Being in 3rd place this gen hasn´t translated into little 3rd party support.

If the PS3, on a regular basis, starts outselling the 360 again sometime this year...guess what...3rd party support will for the most part remain the same...if then, the 360 starts outselling it again, same thing, and around and around.

Bottomline....since 3rd and 2nd place haven´t translated into poor 3rd party support, and both systems keep getting the vast majority of the same 3rd party titles, I don´t see the fun in all this bickering between PS3 and 360 fanboys.

and that thread was locked for being a bunch of pointless flamebait.  So there's a precedent for me to do this.

Lets breakdown Jboy0990's statement for you:

line 1: I'm just gettin annoyed by MS fans who THINK sony is doomed

line 2: When really there is no proof (in relation to line 1)

line 3: Sony is still selling systems and games so they are still making money

Your rebuttal missed the entire point of the statement mister, he is not stating sony is not in financial woe, he is saying that; no Sony is not doomed, just like Toshiba is not doomed and Canon is not doomed (all have reported the worst fiscal earning (negative in the billions) in decades and all are taking precaution to minimize their financial woes.
