Microsoft's GDC (pre/ post GDC impressions)

[QUOTE="SAGE_OF_FIRE"][QUOTE="Andrew_Xavier"][QUOTE="mouthpeace01"][QUOTE="Andrew_Xavier"]

I think they did great!
They had 2 consoles die of their most common problems,
they hyped a game without showing any actual footage, then showed footage, then said "oh yeah, this footage isn't from the game we're up here hyping.
They gave a release date for said game, that does not even have any gameplay footage yet,
they got a developer who's lied for every single one of his games up there, and he got people excited again,
AND, they managed to squeeze in a few arcade games live on gamespot, the first of which looked like parappa the rappa,
way to go M$!!!!

Because truth sucks for people attached to blind brand loyality?

And you sir win the award for fanboy of the day, high five

In all honesty, Fanboy of the week seems more appropriate.

Okay, so,
I'm a "fanboy", because I own a gaming pc, a wii, an xbox 1, a ps2, a ps3, an n64, and a sega dreamcast?
I sure sound like I have some form of blind brand loyality!
So...what is a fanboy exactly? I was lead to believe it was someone who blindly supported one platform
to the death, and would keelhaul themselves in order to push the brand, despite the major
problems the brand might have.
By pointing out the reality of microsoft's GDC, while using windows vista mins you, does that make
me a fanboy? OR, is the reality that you popped an insult because I said something that wasn't
positive about your console of choice? That I owned at one point mind you.
Pretty sure that makes you a "fanboy" and makes me a realist :D
