fanboys? listen the 'f' up
rbee90 | 10:31 PM on 07.26.2008 28 comments


so like ive been reading all these fanboy bull in the net,like going to g4,youtube,myspace,and all those sites where everyone goes to. and i am just pissed. i understand them for defending their system,but, come on! this has gone too far, even the president of msoft is a hardcore fanboy! he's even made things worse! check this entry at g4tv.com

http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/687512/Microsoft_Xbox_360_Will_Beat_PS3_For_Years_On_Software_Sales.html#readmore

i mean, this isn't even professionalism anymore! bragging that your product will beat theirs? tthat's not how the system's suppose to work. im not a businessman or some sort, hell,im just 18 for pete's sake. im kinda tired of msoft being so confident and all, im not taking sides or anything, i just hate the way msoft's 'leader' let a beast that is running wild in the city.(geek/nerd talk alert)

its true that the xbox 360 is taking the lead, the wii's on top, and the ps3's is just about to unleash it's hidden potential. i mean,evey console is good. they have flaws,like human beings ttoo, xbox has RROD,ps is kinda late with their features, and wii is just kinda kiddy, but they're all good right? but were kinda off topic right now, im talking about fanboys.

the point of this entry is, loosen up guys. im a ps3 owner i can even say the ps3's not that perfect, although they dont have any defects and all, and the xbox still has the RROD, since it's been built 69 days b4 release, and the disc tray problems, and wii is well, still kinda kiddy, sorry mario,but gotta hand it to nin10do, the gameplay rocks, as always.

im planning to buy a 360 when all the problems are fixed, like the RROD, the disc trays. like i said i am not taking sides, i just dont want to waste my money on something that has expecting hardware defects, there isn't a software without a hardware, so i can wait,

people! fanboys! the console you own is not your country or your god! dont die for it! dont even worship it! dont make a national anthem for it. you guys get the point.

tthe point of all this is. consoles bring you games, and you play them, this is suppose to be about games, about passion, not the consoles, consoles are just there to bring us games, sony msoft, nin10do, those big names are just there, to develop our games, and we the gamers are suppose to PLAY it.

i know this thing wont end, even though how pointless it is. it will never end. fanboys will be fanboys. fanboys aren't gamers, they're posers. gamers dont care what system they're playing, they dont care if it's in the arcade, if its on that old atari,or sega genesis, or super nes, or n64, or ps1, of yours. gamers want fun, fun and fun, the passion of beating the game, of scoring more points, the thrill and excitement of gaming.

i know there are still a lot of warriors called gamers out there, who dont give a damn on what platform they are playing on. i want them to rise up and take form. and smash the abomination known as FANBOYS. showing them who the big boys are, that gaming isn't about systems or platforms, or consoles, its about the enjoyment, the brotherhood, the camaraderie, the thirst in their hearts to play that game, no matter how old or new it is.

that is PASSION my friends, and that is the only thing these "fanboys" lack

The whole point of a company spokesman is to promote a product in their favor. It's called marketing. The games industry is not a No-Spin zone. Welcome to the real world.

Human beings were bred to be patriotic. They weren't, however bred to know when to stop. Humans latch-on to various items to the point where they will defend it till it dies, and then some (eg. dreamcast).

Its as if people don't know what their goal is in life so they go out and attempt to prove they are superior in any way possible.

Its just how Humans are bred and its unfortunate.

I once beat up my brother because he said bologna was better than ham. Am I a bad person?

No, you're not. Ham is the definitive sliced meat.

Well said i agree entirely with what you said. It's really sickening when you see a post full of fan boy flame wars. I can see why some people become so defensive but its just getting old. People don't play games to enjoy themselves some take it to the heart and forget that it isn't a religion. But now a days everyone loves to complain... and brag about who is better or what one is capable of ... achievements and trophies make people competitive more than ever so i don't see this coming to an end anytime soon.

How are marketing people supposed to earn their keep if they don't say that their product is superior to the competition? Are they supposed to play to people's sympathies and cry over how much more awesome the competition is?

It's your responsibility as a consumer to be smarter than the marketing people and not fall for their bullshit.

video gamer fanboyism is awesome. just look at wrath and heretic, they are fighting the war on the frontline and awesomeness has passed them by. and everybody has fucking preferences, which do you like more, ribs or steak because not one person likes them equally, you're either a rib man or a steak man. its life.

so in conclusion. you hate fanboys; but you rant about the 360's RRoD & MS's rep saying 360's better in software sales?

the RRoD has been pretty much gone since Falcon last year.
Companies are supposed to be confident in their sales projections; it's how wall street stays in touch w/ their ability to perform & gauge their performance w/ past predictions.

you're also forgetting Sony has said some extremely retarded things. more than any other company in the history of games. the most recent one that comes to mind is "I'd rather shoot myself in the head than take a 360 exclusive to the PS3." Kaz Hirai. other notables "HD doesn't start until we say it does." "It will be 4D." "PS3 is the console of True HD" "Most people, I think, don't even know what a rootkit is, so why should they care about it?" "It’s probably too cheap…" "…for consumers to think to themselves ‘I will work more hours to buy one’. We want people to feel that they want it, irrespective of anything else."
"If you can find a PS3 anywhere in North America that's been on shelves for more than five minutes, I'll give you 1200 bucks for it." "The first five million are going to buy it (PS3), whatever it is, even [if] it didn't have games."
"But I fear that it won't have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick." (re: Nintendo)
