Dont let it get you down.

If you want to see real bloodshed, frequent the espn, cbs sportsline, forums. When it comes to an individuals sports team, they will get down right brutal on your ass,....believe me.....I KNOW .

Honestly though, I am a huge gamer and this is the only gaming site that I post on.....why? Because I really, really, really enjoy the community and I get everything I need from one site. Dont get wrapped up in the YouTube, IGN, Game Trailers, ect. sites, because (IMO) people get stupid on those sites. Sure, you get your occasional Fanboys here, hell, we all do it at times regarding I console of choice. But I usually just roll with the punches.

lol i know Soccer fans are the worst here, if one team wins they start a huge fight, alot of times leading to jail.

reason why alot of riot cops are always there in big events.

Yeah, Soccer fans are the best/worst, however, rightfully so. WW Soccer (Football sorry) is huge and always will be.

Sometimes I get the same way regarding my NFL/NBA teams of choice.

Moral of the story, sometimes people are just idiots.......you are always welcome here though....

I just went back to read the entire discussion and wow you did nothing wrong.
I think the reason he went crazy though is because he expects ps3 fanboys to go crazy and talk shit to him so
he is in defensive mode.
But you did absolutely nothing wrong lol, one second you are just peacefully talking (even though he insulted
you in his first post) and then he calls you names.

Still, ht rubs off as a huge jackass fanboy there.

Sounds like he's insecure and doesn't want anyone challenging his position... insecure people do that.

I did have to laugh after reading the thread and then hearing him say in the video how people were getting all worked up over consoles.

I've seen 30 year old grown ass men with families turn into fanboys in a split second... it's more of a mindset and maturity level than an actual age you grow out of. The reason we have fanboys is the same reason we have car fanatics that will not buy anything not ford or chevy or dodge, all three provide similar services, the only difference is the name and people that follow them.

People have a need for justification with anything they do or don't do, what they buy turns into a label for them, they identify with the product brand name, when you buy Sony/Nintendo/Microsoft brand you're buying all the social connotations that come with it, you're like in a clique that doesn't really exist in anything but your own mind.

Just my two cents and is why as long as retarded thinking like that continues fanboys will not die.

This.

I remember doing a psych profile paper on something like this, but Max summed it up pretty well.

I game. You game. We game.

I'm a videogamer, not a fanboy, but have a special place for Nintendo.

The "Console War" on the internet is the biggest nuisance nowadays. It's ridiculous and pointless IMO. It's usually a group of children debating 24/7 online on which console is "better".
