Usually every one in this site don´t consider they-self like a fanboy, and when another person post something that don´t like or attack in some way (with arguments or not) to their favorite game, console or company, says that the other is just a fanboy. But honestly, each one of us (yes, including me) are in some way a fanboy, if not, why where're posting in site like this.So my question are: 1. In your opinion, what a fanboy really are. and...2. Why you are not a fanboy

I prefer the 360 but own them all so I am far from a fanboy, although I do really hate cows!

Playtime: 360: 85% PS3 5% Wii 10%

of course I have my favorites (360 this gen, ps2 last gen, n64 before that, etc.) but I own all of the current gen consoles / handhelds other than PS3 as well as a decent gaming pc so I don't consider myself a fanboy

A fanboy is a nerd who will argue to the death about video games. I am not a fan boy because I care about other things than if xbox has a better gpu or is ps3 sold more to other people I don't care about. I don't caere about who buys what and what they play. I care about money, woman, and woman.

Ihave prefered Sony products for the last 10 years and I still strongly support them....but the only next gen console I don't own is a PS3. Fanboy, me? I don't think so. Biased? slightly.

Like i said before, and most of post here prove it, many of us don´t think our-self like a Fanboy, but my point is, if we're not a fanboy, why we are members of sites exclusive for games. That´s what i say all of us are in some way, even in a little level a Fanboy, but that not make us a Fanboy from hell.

I'm an equal opportunity fanboy. I'll defend anything that becomes the focus of a stupid remark. Be it software or platform.

I own pretty much every console made sine the NES (minus the Wii and PS3), am an avid PC gamer, and I enjoy my Dreamcast, Gamecube,and PS2 greatly. Yet, I am STILL accused of being a Lemming.

The only "next gen" console I own is the 360, so I have to at least be slightly favorable to it, but I try my best not to be a fanboy. Fanboys are ignorant of each console's strengths and weaknesses and have only one, narrow view.

I'm a fanboy for Socom.

I think that game destroys every other MP experience. Being that socom never really had over 30,000 people online, theres not many die-hard fans like me so I doubt anyone on here will agree with me. But thats just personal preference.

Some might call me a fool, but those would be the same people saying "system a is better than system b"which is just as bad.

Even though I don't have a PS3 yet, I'll most likely pick up Confrontation on release date just because i've gotten every Socom on release date besides the first one, and I will be getting a PS3 sooner or later.

I guess some people call me the Space Fanboy because I love stars and planets and stuff like that. But then other people call me Maurice (weet woah) because I speak of the pompitous of love for Sega. Mostly Sega as an ideal not Sega the harsh reality. Therein lies the rub. If you identify yourself as manticore then identify me as enemy.

I'm not a fanboy as I want to own all three consoles and I want to get more into PC gaming. I think it's silly that some gamers pass up good games just because of brand loyalty, graphics, etc. However, right now I do show more support for the Wii, but that's only because it's the only current gen system I own at the moment.

Unless you mean video game fanboys, then how is that so? If someone wants all systems, enjoys games on all systems and doesn't blindly bash or support any console or the PC, how are they a Lemming, Cow, Sheep or Hermit?

Simply, no one can be unbiased. It doesn't matter if you're "blind" or not.

I know I step over the line sometimes. Not really about videogames though. If someone trys to call star/warcraft original then there will be an aurgument. But other than that I try to keep as un biased as possible.

Erm, a bit biased?

Seriously, if someone is biased towards a certain system, it doesn't mean they are a fanboy. Especially if they have no problems with the other systems.

But I guess if you are right then I'm a sheep who wants a 360 and a PS3. A sheep that may transform into a cow or lemming if he begins preferring one of those two consoles once he owns them in addition to his Wii. ;)
