[QUOTE="xboxdevil"][QUOTE="SaintBlaze"]Oh and btw, why do you assume everyone who posts on this board is a fanboy? :|xboxdevil

I honestly don't think he understands the difference between "fanboy" and a gamer who just prefers a certain system.

I know what the difference is. Fanboys feel a extra layer of atchment to their console and manufacter of choice and exsibit(sp) more aggresiveness/comptivness than the average casual gamer. While a gamer who pefers a certain system is content with there choice and don't feel any emotional attachment to their console.

Okay, let me give you my defintion. A fanboy is a goof who is absolutley in love with their platform of choice, and will defend that even when in the wrong. They are blind and oblivious to the faults with their system or exclusive games. And they don't take well to critisism of any kind. A gamer, however, may or may not own multiple systems, and just enjoys playing the damn things. I own 27 game systems. I prefer the 360 because of it's controller and the selection of games that I enjoy playing the most. But I also feel that Halo 3 was grossly over-hyped, and I know that the 360 has hardware failure issues.

I also love the PS3 and think that Ratchet and Resistance are two of the best games I've ever played. It is expensive for a game console, but you have to look at what you're getting, and a lot of gamers don't care about that. PS3 is still waiting for that one "killer app" to blow the roof off, and they have a big 2008 coming up. I own the Wii, but not too many games interest me, and most of the games I own for it were bought for my oldest boy and daughter. I do know and accept, whether I like it or not, that the Wii is the hottest selling console on the market.

My PC is where I've been gaming the most here recently, though. I bought a new HP with 3GB RAM, AMD X2 4400 processor, and a 500 GB Hard Drive, put an 8800 GTS card in it and bought a 22" HD monitor for it. Holy crap, this runs like a cadillac. So I've been enjoying a lot of the games I could'nt really play full blast before on my old PC on my new one. And OMG, Crysis is awesome. I can run it smooth with settings at high. I just love this industry. I am a gamer.

I understand what your saying becuse really we are saying the same thing, but what I'm trying to figure out is what drives them. What makes them do the things they do.

I think a fanboy is deep down very insecure about the console they chose, while gamers know they made the right choice and are very happy because of it

To truely understand system wars, you must undergo a grueling 12 week trek through the swiss alps with no food or water or clothes. (and your hands tied to your feet)

Do this, and then you will know what we know.

Actually to answer your question, here is what I think. Fanboys come here to feel better about the console they picked. They fear they made a mistake but do not dare show it, and instead bash, bash, and bash some more. Gamers come here to enjoy some debating and also enjoy watching the fanboys make fools of themselves. That is my take on System Wars. Is it right? I feel I will never know

To end it........ it won't. There are people who just live to hate something. Maybe an abundance of good games for the consoles and PC will decrease the number, but there will always be fanboys.I think them and cockroaches are the only things that can survive a nuclear war.

What did Sony fanboys win last generation with the PS2's dominace?

What are nintendo fans going to win with Wii's success?

I don't get why you guys argue.

I don't understand why this is a war.

-Ninja_Dog-

You have opened my eyes, i can't believe i've been soo blind. It all makes perfect sence now.

The 360 should win.

So everyone go buy one this year.

Games, they won hundreds of great games, way more than the competition. Wii should be winning games as well, but unfortunately, it seems that developers rather spend most of their money on 360/PS3 and quick cash on the Wii.

When the majority of posts are done by the author of the topic, there is a problem. Obviously nobody is interested in discussing this matter so why do you continue to bump it up? Just let it rest.

I admit, it would be nice if everyone could look at each system objectively with no personal bias.

But it'll never happen. Don't expect it, don't look forward to it, don't want it; it won't happen.

Because everyone will have their personal choice. People will get defensive and will feel bias aganist somthing that rivals what they own. Most people diss PS3 games because they dont come to their system, same with 360 games, pc games, and well... wii games. Its impossible to have peace, look in a history book and tell me if you think peace is even remotly possible for anything. Its human nature.

Would agree that all this conflict stems from fear?
