[QUOTE="The_Game21x"][QUOTE="jechtshot78"][QUOTE="The_Game21x"][QUOTE="jechtshot78"][QUOTE="KR3W-"]This guy is an idiot, like all the other lemmings. Seriously, I said it before, I'll say it again, Lemmings are the most annoying fanboys :|jechtshot78
You are my new best friend :oops:Here we go with this again. Only now are the lemmings so annoying. After E3, when the cows were massively owned, they all left. It's not the lemming's fault that Sony screwed up. The cows, after dealing out all the ownage Pre E3, were waiting for Sony's magical press conference that was going to completely kill MS and the 360 and simultaneously own each and every lemming from here to infinity. Well, we all see how that turned out. Now, instead of manning up and accepting ownage, they've decided to leave. I think Casey put it best when he said (back when he was halfway credible) "If there was indeed a massive cow exodus it's simply because they can dish it out but can't take it." And I think that's totally true. After E3 05, you couldn't walk into SW without tripping over a cow and the lemmings were few and far in between. Now, they're nowhere to be seen (well actually, they seem to be trickling back in).
In terms of annoyance pre E3 06, the cows have the lemmings beat by a mile. Most of the worst fanboys in SW history (A Girl, RimlaFX, Wudi09, Cazzidyizabeast, etc.) are cows (of course I'm not excluding the likes of the original MustangGT, HD28guybasic and others) Hell, over the last few days, I couldn't walk in without seeing a "This PS3 game owns teh 360" and "Look at teh crappy 360 screen shots!" and many more. I'm not defending what the lemmings are doing now, but I think you guys are giving them too much flak.
Cows had the Reason, and right to be that arrogant, Lemmings don't. And what reason might this be?
Please don't say it's "because the Playstation brand has been on top for two generations". We all know how quickly the market can fluctuate.
It is because PS was on top for two generations, it won 2 system wars, and is still winning in sales, and quality software. You can disagree with me all you want, It still does not change the fact that the Xbox Failed last generation, and they have nothing to be arrogant about.Nintendo was highly favored to win after dominating for two generations. Well, the Playstation came in and slaughtered the competition. What would you say to those Nintendo fanboys now? Did they have reason to be arrogant? Yes. Should they have been? Hell no.
The same applies here too. Sony has been making a lot of mistakes recently. It appears that their previous dominance has gone to their head. They're getting cocky. Just look at some of the comments they've made recently. "We have built such a sizeable user base that we are sure that 5 million people will buy the PS3 at or near launch even if it didn't have games" and my personal favorite, "The next generation doesn't start until we say it does."
The thing about power is, it's when you think have it, that you're really in trouble. The market can shift at the drop of a hat. It happened for Sony, and it can happen to Sony.
