Alright, here's the deal. I'm leaving in about an hour to go nerd it up at Comic Con with some of my favorite people, and due to circumstances TOTALLY beyond my control, I didn't get Fanboy Friday done this week.
Here's where you come in.
Most of you can relate to the nonsense you see in this article, because you see it all over the internet. So, this week, you're in charge of Fanboy Friday. Go dig around your favorite (or most hated) forums and post the best fanboy comments you can find. While I know some of you won't listen to this, please try to at least make them real. Making things up is fun and all, but the real humor of Fanboy Friday is that this are things that ACTUAL PEOPLE say.
I also want to say that I would NEVER condone going into a forum and purposefully bating fanboys into a flame war to get hilarious comments. I'm sure some of you miscreants would enjoy doing that, and it would provide a bountiful source of amusement and ridiculousness. So, uh, don't do that. It would be bad.

wow looks like a l4d mod with hillbilly music, not even expansion worthy, let alone a full sequel. Graphic looks just like the original too which is already outdated. Valve must be desperate for money for them to churn out junk like this for full 60 bucks.

Apparently he demands Obama-scale change in everything he purchases.
but seriousness aside party hard friday
You're all gay and the 3DO is clearly the winner this console generation. Anyone who says otherwise is a terrorist. Clearly due to the size of my penis I am, and always will be, emphatically, absolutely, and unquestionably, correct. End topic.
Plus it have more chapters, and less (very much less) fillers then Naruto, and when the anime DO resort to fillers, they are better then Naruto's.
And it's fanbase ISN'T composed 90% by 12 years old retards that don't know shit about anime/japan except for Naruto and ACTUALLY BELIEVE THEY ARE NINJAS.
And Pirates owns Ninjas.
And Sogeking.
That is all.
"It is just amazing how much detail they've put into this game and they still have around 7 more months to work on it. It looks about ready now. This is going to be a day one buy for sure. This game looks better than any 360 game out there."
Followed by:
"I agree with the first bit of your comment. If it still has development time, they must be really fine tuning. However, even though I'm a ps3 owner, I couldn't say yet that this will beat every xbox 360 game, especially as there are some really awesome games on xbox like fable 2 and gears of war. Still, it looks to be amazing."
And then BAM:
"They don't look better than this game. Gears is good looking, but KZ2 blows it out of the water in graphics and effects. This game here looks like it is going to look even better than KZ2. We also have Uncharted 2, which is another amazing looking game.
Also I agree the person playing sucks. They also cut out the best part. How could they cut out the Centaur's guts spilling out?"
Or:
"this guy sucks he just holds L1 and mashes square!!!!!!anyone else kinda dissapointed with the upgrade in graphics.....it was hyped to be the most amazing thing you would ever see but tbh it isn't that much of an improvement on the second......kinda like halo."
And:
"Whoever is playing this game is supremely retarded, and he/she must be interdicted by his/her family, before his existence becomes endangered by such stupidity."
Hopefully this entertains someone until a real professional shows up with some good fanboy comments...
"i hate those fucking ps3 fans they think there console is amazing when its really shit who here thinks me the rich man sue sony ?"
Well I really don't understand that last part, anyone?
"Not impressed, hell it looks like The Conduit... "
T3h grfx r not AMAZING!!!! rrrraaaaggggeeeeeeee!!!!
"i wanna have sex with that smg, its ossim"
says one fellow.
Ok I'll admit, finding golden nuggets amidst the wave of crap fanboy comments is hard. Ross sure does a good job though, unlike me.
Also, wtf meng?
