what you think is a 12 year old fanboy blindly defending his console/pc or game may be an actual microsoft, sony, nintendo, developer, publisher employee trying to convince you all one way or another on a system or game. they try to start trends which work sometimes.

i bet gaming message boards are full of these industry employees.

I've seen advertisements online for that sort of thing. I just post on this forum whenever I need to waste time. Kinda like hitting the wait button in Elder Scrolls.

Somehow I doubt ANYONE is going to pay someone to get on a message board and spam "Your console is teh suxorzzz!!!". Maybe someone making somewhat inteligent reasonable responces biased tword a particular platform might be an employee but I can't possible immagine that a post from "MyConsoleIsL33TZorz" saying " Your console is teh suxorzzz!!!" is actually coming from an intelligent gainfully employed full grown person.

I honestly doubt that they would have the lack of intelligence to post in the manner that some people do.

Come on, fanboys are obviously immature people who think their console's company is god.

And if my job was with Sony, yeah, I'd be happy, but I wouldn't pledge my full devotion to Sony only. I love games and support all the systems.

heh, well it does exist. i know some companies to do it - it's the same concept as viral marketing in general and is sometimes part of larger campaigns. trust me. it exists. they are here. Zipatoni is one of the major companies I know of that does work for Sony. I'm sure there are many many many others. Zipatoni is just famous because they failed and were called on it, the best are the ones that are never exposed ;).
