This is not an attack on fanboys themselves. It's just an observation. From a psychology perspective, I genuinely believe that it is indeed getting tougher and tougher for 360 fanboys. And if you are fair and honest, you should agree with me. If you disagree, I like to know why.

I mean everyone has a threshold. The more of a fanboy you are, the higher the threshold you have for when reality hits you. This goes for PS3, Wii, and 360 fanboys. But the current state and the immediate future of console gaming suggest clearly to me that the PS3 will enjoy more positive news than the 360. How many bad news for the 360 and good news for the PS3 will there need to be before 360 fanboys admit that :

1) the 360 will be in last place

2) the PS3 is more powerful (the biggest and best looking games are on the PS3)

3) the PS3 has better exclusives in 2008 and 2009

4) the PS3 is the better buy for people with HD TVs.

5) the 360 is the least casual friendly of the 3 consoles

All I am am sure of is: expect more good news for the PS3 than the 360. As such, the title of this thread stands.

I don't think this is a bad thing; fanboys aren't a good thing to have around.
But I will say that I'd buy a 360 over a PS3 any day so far, and even looking into the future.

But one things for sure, Sony fanboys are the most impenetrable, difficult, and stubborn (and often ignorant) pricks around. I base this on experience lolrexCo

hehe. You have a high threshold.

360 news so far has only made me more excited. Banjoe Threeie, Fable 2, Gears 2, Halo Wars? Peter Jackon's Halo Chronicles? Alan Wake? Ninja Gaiden 2? Who knows what else. I don't care about sales or how much more power the PS3. It's all about what you do with the hardware you have.

For you to list all of those games and say you don't care about the PS3's power or increasing sales, I think you are not being honest. If the PS3 has more power and shows it in games like Uncharted, and especially Gran Tourismo, then you would care if you care about good looking games.

Cow dung are just by-products of good news for the PS3.

Owns and likes. Supposedly owning all of them but constantly bashing 1 or 2 is a symptom of a disturbed mind.

Only way to go if you can. No point being a fanboy. I want to see all three systems succeed. What I don't get is why some people are so intent on trying to bury one particular system. Oh well.

1: Time will tell, but as of now the PS3 is.

2: Xbox was more powerful than the PS2, and that meant nothing. (look at the wii)

3: That is your opinion. I think the 360 has the same if not better line up. Again this is opinion.

4: That is only true if you plan on building a blu-ray movie collection.

5: the PS3 is in the same boat as the 360 as far as casual goes (what ever casual means..)

PS: I'm not finding it hard at all to be a 360 fanboy. Were you bored when you thought this up? ;)

You are just ignoring reality. But, believe me, it will hit you. All of the 5 will come true. The signs are obvious, and becoming mroe and more so by the week.

I wasn't bored. I just felt like saying a few words in this forum.

Your points seem a bit biased and this coming from a "supporter" of the Playstation 3 console. If anything, it's becoming tougher to be an Xbox 360 Fanboy as the Playstation 3 is getting better. It now has time and content under it's belt to hold it's own weight. So your mature fanboys who had some point in their selective stance in the past are now growing up and realizing that the console isn't that bad, it's appealing to them in one way or another.

You have to give credit where credit is due.

Why would it hit me? I don't care how well the PS3 does since I'm really enjoying my 360. They can rule the world for all I care. MS aren't going anywhere. But this argument is pointless because you seem to be a PS3 fanboy..

And that's the truth. I play the hell out of my 360, and PS3 getting more sales or better games won't change that in the slightest.

No...no, it isn't reasonable for any gamer to be dissatisfied with a system they've bought. That is highly illogical. :roll:

Sounds nice and all, but if you like games and good looking graphics, wouldn' you want to experience the best PS3 games? If you don't plan on getting the PS3 then you are also a 360 fanboy in my eyes, especially later in the PS3's life span.

I would rather buy a 360, and I hopefully soon will.

See, there are these things called games, you know - the things you play on the system? Thing is, different people have different tastes. Many people might just prefer the games available for the 360?

If power and graphics were as important as you make out, why isnt the PS3 selling 20-25 million like the Wii? Or why hasnt the PS3 thrashed the sales that the 360 had in its first year with it own first year sales?

A lot of your "points" sounded very biased and I hear a lot of speculation. Your claim that the PS3 is more powerful is quite debatable, If this is true, why have the exclusives not been more critically acclaimed than 360 titles? PS3 still has no AAAE's. Are devs simply not taking advantage? Or has this been proven to be little more than a fallacy only Cows believe?

In addition, your third point about the games being better is merely opinion. Not everyone will agree.

I don't think it would be that tough to be an Xbox fanboy. They have great games such as Fable 2, Halo 3, NG2, Gears, plus many others. Are they better than the PS3's exclusives? Maybe, maybe not. Are they worse? Maybe, maybe not.

Regardless, it is personal opinion. I may love Fable 2 and Halo 3 more than any other PS3 exclusive, therefore making the 360 a more preferable choice for myself as a gamer than the PS3 is. Sales don't matter to me, most powerful console doesn't matter to me, all these things don't matter. Just as long as I got good games, I'm set.

Sounds nice and all, but if you like games and good looking graphics, wouldn' you want to experience the best PS3 games? If you don't plan on getting the PS3 then you are also a 360 fanboy in my eyes, especially later in the PS3's life span.

Sihanouk

It's official now, you're a cow. And no. I haven't seen anything on the PS3 yet that -kills- the 360 in graphics or gameplay. maybe you should be asking yourself this. Wouldn't you want to expirence the best 360 games?

PS: I'm pretty sure I pointed out that I am a 360 fanboy. But I don't go around making threads that bash the PS3 or wii or PC.

I'm actually a proud owner of the 360 because it has all the games I enjoy. It was the first next gen console I bought and I was satisfied what it has to offer. I also own a PS3 so I'm pretty much enjoying my next gen experience.

it sucks to be fanboy, they miss out on great games

lol and here i was thinking the PS3 was going out like HD-DVDs. nothing groundbreaking has come out recently on any of the consoles, but at least 360 has solid XBlive and H3 going for it.........what does the PS3 have?

[QUOTE="Sihanouk"]

This is not an attack on fanboys themselves. It's just an observation. From a psychology perspective, I genuinely believe that it is indeed getting tougher and tougher for 360 fanboys. And if you are fair and honest, you should agree with me. If you disagree, I like to know why.

I mean everyone has a threshold. The more of a fanboy you are, the higher the threshold you have for when reality hits you. This goes for PS3, Wii, and 360 fanboys. But the current state and the immediate future of console gaming suggest clearly to me that the PS3 will enjoy more positive news than the 360. How many bad news for the 360 and good news for the PS3 will there need to be before 360 fanboys admit that :

1) the 360 will be in last place

2) the PS3 is more powerful (the biggest and best looking games are on the PS3)

3) the PS3 has better exclusives in 2008 and 2009

4) the PS3 is the better buy for people with HD TVs.

5) the 360 is the least casual friendly of the 3 consoles

All I am am sure of is: expect more good news for the PS3 than the 360. As such, the title of this thread stands.

1. wait and see

2.The pc is the most powerful, even i see that

3. every cow says this, it all based on preferance. also, apparantly, you never looked at what the 360 has in store for 08.also, give me a reason why YOU perfer the ps3 08 line-up to the 360 08 line-up. if you are just naming games for the sake of it, you, sir, are a bored cow

4.funny, you get the same graphics as the 360,based on preferance

5.halo 3 and gears says otherwise. the wii is the casual choice. also ,name some ps3 casual games, or your just saying that to make your self feel better

I just want say......jesus christ man, how many anti-360 post do you make a week? Trying to be rude, why don't you play your ps3, or hell, spend time with your girlfriend? do you even have a ps3? that would be a better use of your time, i'm sure everybody,including lemmings, would say that.

I am talking about PS3 vs. 360, not the PC or the Wii. It's not cool to have the 360 run for cover, hiding behind the PC. Also, your answers seem to ignore the most likely scenarios. The more you deny, the tougher it will be for you when more news come out favoring the PS3, precisely the topic of this thread.

This is system wars. I post a lot because the 360 has so many weak spots!

To be fair there are some games I would want to play on the 360, Bioshock being one of them.

Hmm. Did you write something like this in 06, 07 when the lemmings were bashing the PS3 left and right?

1- Last in hardware sales, but the leader in software sales
2- How? COD 4 is arguably the best looking game out and its on 360. Bioshock and Gears of War on 360. MGS 4 looks amazing but Gears of War 2 will probably be just as impressive. Also Alan Wake, SPlinter Cell Conviction, and Project Offset might have something to say as well.
3- Opinions yet again. Lets compare 08
PS3 will more than likely get- MGS 4, White Knight Chronicles, Socom, Motorstorm 2, Resistance 2, Little Big Planet, INfamous, and Killzone 2 with FF 13 and GT 5(full game) coming in 09

360 will get Gears of War 2, Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2, Too Human, Halo Wars, Tales of Vesperia, Banjo 3, Infinite Undiscovery.

Not only is that list comparable in most ways but pretty equal. WIth PS3 having the bigger killer app.

09 is too cloudy but for 360 Cry on, Mass Effect 2, Bioshock 2, Project OFfset, Project Origin, Alan Wake, Champions Online etc

4) the only thing thats probably true on your list.

5) no one on this board is casual, so why would we care if our system is casual friendly.

[QUOTE="HappyAppe"]360 news so far has only made me more excited. Banjoe Threeie, Fable 2, Gears 2, Halo Wars? Peter Jackon's Halo Chronicles? Alan Wake? Ninja Gaiden 2? Who knows what else. I don't care about sales or how much more power the PS3. It's all about what you do with the hardware you have.Sihanouk

For you to list all of those games and say you don't care about the PS3's power or increasing sales, I think you are not being honest. If the PS3 has more power and shows it in games like Uncharted, and especially Gran Tourismo, then you would care if you care about good looking games.

I like good looking games, but I also realize its more about the gameplay, and thats why those games hold my interest. They are doing things in the gameplay department which look good to me.

or maybe you use fancy wording to make it seem like there are lot of problems, when in reality, there aren't.

maybe you can list the ps3 problems. i can list the 360 problems, and i'm a lemming, you should do the same.

or are you too blind to list them?

also, i don't give damn about if the ps3 sales more than the 360, at least i don't deny it happening, but i go on with my day.

if white knight story get news, i might check it ouut when i get a ps3, if valkyres of the battle get more news, imight check it out,if tekken 6 is out i might try it. the point is that ,short of ninja gaiden 2 bieng cancelled, the ps3 news do not bother me, like how the 360 apparently bothers you enough to make threads about it.

Sihanouk

But there are plenty of games on the 360 that are out/being released that are definitely worth owning. Plus, as a gamer, I don't really care what professionals think. If there are great games being released on the 360 (which there are) I'll play the console. And many 360 owners feel this way.

If games stop coming to the console, well I'll follow the games to where htey go.

So the conclusion comes to: nope, its not getting tougher to be a 360 fanboy.

No. 360's still a fantastic platform, and easily the best of the three. It's just that PS3 fanboys are getting louder and louder.

Agree with what?

That PS3 wins in sales and is the best deal out there in terms of hardware and what it offers to an HDTV centered theatre system. Yes i agree that the PS3 will win those debates.

I do think PS3 is on the same boat as 360 in terms of casuals. What does PS3 have for casuals? Singstar which is only popular in Europe. Other than that it can be matched easily by the 360. THe real thing is that the PS3 does better worldwide. Where as the 360 is all US and solid in Europe.

Games however could easily stay with the 360. RIght now there isnt even a debate. 360s overall library is way ahead of the PS3 right now. THe way the year has shaped up its 360 versus PS3 and its still pretty close. Next year we dont know too much about 09 to make a call on 09.

I do agree that Sony has the man power in terms of 2nd party studios to really get going in game development over 360 in 09.

There are other factors going for 360.

Superior software sales. Games sell on 360....alot. Usually more than the PS3. So i dont see many 3rd party studios making PS3 exclusives knowing how well the 360 sells software.

Online gaming the 360 is leading the PS3 in that area and so far its not close. the XBOX live community is growing, and with the addition of XNA its going to be bigger and better.

NEW IPs. Microsoft is paying for many big NEW IPs and New franchises. We have seen how something fresh can overtake an equal game or even a superior game if that said game is too similar to previous games. Alla COD 4 versus Halo 3.
