Ok as I agree with almost all of GS's reviews I will have to say goodbye to it. (I will still look at reveiws)

REASONS:

1. It is kinda hard to talk freely about things on here without starting a war.

2. If you say something that may cause a war it gets locked.

3. 360 is clearly the favorite console on this site and I of coarse own a PS3 and I can't take the bashing anymore.

4. FANBOYS

5. FANBOYS

6. ummmmm FANBOYS.

I was just wondering if anyone knew of a good site that I could talk PS3 peacefully without getting bashed for owning one cause I am tired of people telling me how dumb I am, when I know I picked the system of the future.

What pushed me over the edge is the fact that the Forum topic named (PS4) has still not been locked and it is clearly a bash on the PS3. Where as some of my topics have gotten closed without second thought and i thought they were harmless. go ahead look at the forum topic named (PS4) and just wonder how that got so many posts.

Yea that PS4 thread is annoying, I ended up getting a 360 until the games start rolling out. THankfully by the end of the year the fanboys should be slowing down considering all the good games being released early 08 are PS3 games. Fact is both systems have their place and people need to chill out.

Gametrailers seems to have a decent amount of PS3 owners, at least they have a far greater number of PS3 forum posts over the 360.

Ya it's a whack thread but don't let that one 360 idiot fanboy moron ruin ur time here. IT really isn't that bad and there are great threads. But those kind of threads ruin it for everyone and who knows maybe the mod is busy? it is afterall the wee hours of the AM.

yeah, i agree with everything you just said, when i first joined gamespot which was around mid 2005 (xbox 360 wasnt launched yet), the forums were really peaceful the reviews were unbiased and not much hate in the forums. But then the xbox 360 came to life and all this fanboy, bashing, moderators... came in.

I personally think it is lame for anyone to bash another console. Especially the fact about PS3 haven't had it's one year anniversary yet! Not once I went on a gamecube or original Xbox and bashed them about their console when I had the PS2 a few years back. Why should I? I am not trying to change peoples opinions about consoles, I just want to get feedback from the games and console that I own period! I don't give a **** about other platforms. If I did, I would have bought the Wii or 360. If there is any fan boys lurking here on the PS3 area of Gamespot, here is my advise to you: Get the **** out! If I go on ESPN to check out the NFL, I don't want some fanboy telling me that the NHL or NBA is a better sport. Okay??? Are you fanboys following what I am saying? It's a very simple concept. If I want to join a site dedicated to college sports, I don't want to hear anything about how professional is sooooo much better. Or vice versa. I want a site that suits my taste from the fans. Sorry about my anger, but it pisses me off that much! I am like anyone, this is suppose to be a community. When I log onto Gamespot, I try to go to the PS3 area. I only want to hear opinions from people who enjoy the PS3 and the games. The people who own and play on the same system as mine. This is almost as anoying as spam email. Speaking of which, why dont you fanboys just message me how much the 360 is soooo much better? You people are like telemarketers or Spam's or anything that seems to be annoying to the extreme. Peace.

Many user here, really al lot of forum members also already noticed that GS is biased towards the box. There were already many threads about it. GS is part of C-Net. The answer why GS is doing this might be here.

http://www.cnetnetworks.com/partnerships/

some of their partners are two microsoft companys, msn and windows marketplace. Not Microsoft itself but two of their sister companys so that it's not soooo obvious that Cnet is controlled by MS to a certain degree (but with not just one but two companys from MS...just to be sure Gates).

Also Sony is no partner at all.

AND Sony themselfs are also a reason for this. While all MS companies work together and will never harm a sister company, Sony themself are a bunch of warlords. Sony Movies and Sony Online Entertainment are working together with MS, even with Xbox360 while SCEJ/SCEE and SCEA have to see where they are. IF therewas a MS Movie company then you would never see such a film as a game on a Nintendo or Sony Console. But that bloke Spiderman is jumping on all consoles around like an idiot.

Come on man... there will always be people with differing opinions aka "fanboys". You said that you are confident in your purchase of a ps3 so don't let those guys get to ya. Just be happy that you can say you own a ps3 or any console for that matter. There are alot of people who would love to be in your position and only have to worry about an opossing view.

I totally agree, I pretty much ignore the Gamespot main site anymore. I just use it for these forums and the PS3 people here are awesome. Most are really helpful & have a passion for PS3.

The PS3 board isn't your blog. Also, in case you didn't notice, that PS4 thread was dealt with BECAUSE PEOPLE REPORTED IT.
