Wanted: Fanboys/Girls
Xav | 3:34 AM on 01.24.2008 14 comments


I'm working on a story right now on the current state of the consoles and what the hardcore gamers are looking forward to in 2008.

I need any and all rabid Microsoft/Nintendo/Sony fanboys to come forward if they want to volunteer to answer a few questions about their favorite console and the games they're dying to play in '08.

Also, for the sake of this story... flame wars are a go.

Bash the shit outta the other guy, but bring your talking points to the match.

If you're interested please private message me and l'll contact you within the next few weeks.

As a hardcore gamer and, taking into account the current state of the consoles, the huge array of PC titles and Sony finally pulling their fingers out of their ass, I'm looking forward to more games. Lots more games.

I'm not looking forward to the delays. I have a horrible feeling that this may be another year of milestones unmet.

I don't see any questions up there in your post to answer..just here's a bat..now bash the people who's console they own & advocate and hit them.

Know what I need??..a post with more thought than this.

@Y0j1mb0: You obviously missed this line.

It's okay. You know what I need? Someone who can reading some fucking instructions and a dick comment from someone who proofreads. Your last lines make no sense. Now, if you can't be productive for me you should go back to jerking off to Guns-N-Ammo and Googling your name buddy.

Why do people who have no interest feel the need to comment? Does increasing your post count help you sleep better at night and make you forget people point and laugh at you in real life?

I don't know if this is appropriate or not, but UT3's ability to play mods in the PS3 version definitely is a turn on. From what I understand, LittleBigPlanet has a similar idea with its user created levels. Will 2008 open the floodgates for mods to become common and accepted content on console games?

@Xav:

It amazes me that your surprised somebody placed a comment in your post you didn't like. I mean why would I do that?? Aside from the fact thatthe sum of your post is to officially sanction a flame war on the willing here.

Exactly what instructions did I miss? Private messaging you? The rest all amounts to Bash the shit outta the other guy, but bring your talking points to the match.

Now, if you can't be productive for me you should go back to jerking off to Guns-N-Ammo and Googling your name buddy.

What on God's green earth are you talking about?? Do you even know??

BTW: You know what I need? Someone who can reading some fucking instructions and a dick comment from someone who proofreads. Your last lines make no sense.

Ironic. isn't it?

@WDot: I hope so. It's funny how Microsoft pimped social media and sharing with the Xbox 360 prior to launch and with HOME and mod support PS3 is getting their first.

Haha, yeah... its irony buddy.

Here's my order of who's really winning the console war,

1. Microsoft, because they have a long term plan, and lots of good games. And XBL.

2. Nintendo, DS and Wii are a powerhuse, but you can only sell so many on hardware alone until everyone owns it or get's tired of it.

3 Sony, just now getting there feet around with about 6 good PS3 exclusive games.

The name's Xav de Matos. I've been around the gaming industry block for a while and after an amazing stint as the public relations manager and staff writer on THEBBPS.com, I've moved on as a staff writer for AOL's gaming network at Xbox360Fanboy.com and as a reviewer for WorthPlaying.com and do other freelance work in the gaming industry.

Since I need a place to rant and rave, I thought Dtoid would be the perfect place for me to express my madness!
