Recently I've been worried I'm becoming a fanboy... I used to go by the quality of the game and the console it was on was irrelervant. But recently, since getting my 360 and live, I've found myself loving the console itself. Live arcade, gamertags, the ability to turn it on and off with the controller, the soon-to-be released use of Live Messenger...

 

I've even been laughing at PS3 owners since the only reason I would get a PS3 keeps jumping over to 360. Assasin's Creed, DMC5, RE5, FF13... And rumours of Metal Gear...The only reason reamaining is GT5. But theres no point getting a console for one game.

 

I don't want to think of myself as a fanboy though... I'm not going to say Forza 2 is better then GT5 just because I like 360 more then the PS3...

Don't believe MGS4 going to the 360, it's exclusive to the PS3, Kojima has already confirmed it.

There's nothing wrong with loving your system. But if you began to bring up stuff like "I can turn on my system with a remote", "I can talk to people with a headset" or "I can use a gamertag" in an anti-Wii or anti-PS3 argument, then you're crossing the line.

You're not a fanboy until you become unable to understand logic and bash stuff in threads that you know nothing about,

1) Do you believe corporate propaganda?
2) Do you avoid playing games on other systems because "they are on the other system?"
3) Do believe your opinion = fact?

System wars really isn't the place for anyone who isn't a fanboy. If you're happy to play all games on all systems I see no reason to be here

If you post on System Wars you're a fanboy. No reasonable gamer can post in this forum without being corrupted.

Here's a question:

Is "loyalty" considered fanboyish?

Say, (last gen) if a PS2 owner stuck it through with their system when XBOX was having it's hayday with Halo and KotOR, holding out for other exceptional games such as God of War II or Shadow of the COllosus, does that make them "fanboys" if they still prefer their system over the XBOX?

Since when was FFXIII announced for X360? Last I checked, Sony was getting it exclusive.

Read my three questions. They determine if you are a fanboy or not.

That is a false statement, i and many others are living proof.

Why do you post on System "Wars" if you enjoy all the systems?

Just because you like your 360 does not make you a fanboy.  I own all the systems and it's impossible not to like one more than the other.  And this opinion for me chagnes over time.....sometimes I'm digging my PS3, sometimes it's the 360 (lately the Wii has been gathering ridiculous dust).  But liking one more doesn't make you a fanboy. 

I thnk a fanboy is when you blindly argue or make excuses for your system without any rational behind them.
