^^^@gigla

is it because their console Only doesn't do everything?;P

Yup

Sure you pay a little extra for the PS3 but if it does everything why wouldn't you pay a little extra?

Well I'm off to get a back rub by my PS3

Couldn't help it...

 

 

They're just jealous because the head of their companies dont look like that.

It is because PS fans are horrible. They get excited about games time and time again.

This is the game industry people! You can't get excited about games!



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Where is this whining?



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

Probably, but im not just saying it because i want to. Nearly every poll that includes Sony/PS3/PS3 game vs anything will win in favor of the prior. MGS4 is the most owned game by VGC members, and a PS3 game is considered the best game ever (according to the rating threads as of late).

VGC is fairly diverse, but it wouldnt be a stretch of the imagination to assume that PS3 fans seem to get more fire simply because there are more of them. Anyway, thats my 2 cents.

I'd say Nintendo fans are more dominant on this site personally.

Poll's and the ranking game can be easily de-bunked by using this.

7 out of the top 10 games are Nintendo platform exclusives, including number 1.

But it's stupid to argue anyway, as there is no real possible way we can find out.

That doesn't really say much.

I wouldn't really count FFVI as a "Nintendo game," it stands more on its own as a "Final Fantasy." Similarly, not all FFVII fans are Sony fans.

Anyway, Nintendo games are simply more popular in "best games ever" lists. A quick google search, and I see...

... 4 Nintendo games (5 exclusive to their consoles), and 0 Sony games. Most lists I've seen look similar, and I don't think we'd say IGN is run by Nintendo fans.



Bah, I get far more flamed and assaulted for calling some guys out on bias and fanboyism than they ever will for just being fanboys. It's just the nature of the internet. Majority rules, and confronting or combating fanboyism is discouraged, at least in my experience.

For example. I've often entered threads filled with fanboyism and trolls. When I comment on the nature of the trolls, and their oh so obvious motivation, I'm the one who gets not only flamed, but degraded, and certainly not supported.

Even the non-fanboy PS3 fans will often chide me, instead of supporting me. "We're not all like that Zen, you shouldn't generalize us" instead of what they should say which is "You're right, tell em!"

When you do things like that, and when you accept fanboyism just because you agree with it, even if you didn't partake of its enjoyment, you are as bad as those fanboys you despise.

...but this isn't a pleasant truth, and I doubt anyone will accept it as the revelation it almost assuredly is, so just disregard it. This is my response to the OP. Disregard it.

That said, NOBODY deserves free time to celebrate fanboyism. Basically, fanboyism is judging games and people based on their console of choice, instead of their own inherant quality, and that is abundant on the internet, and lately, it's been getting worse on the Playstation side of the ball. It's bearable, imo, but it sure does suck that not as many people as you would expect, seem to mind it.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
