Well, according to your profile, you joined at the tail end of 2015. This place had gone to shit already.
There was a time that we had REAL discussion and debates here.
There is nothing wrong with debates, nothing wrong with supporting a system and being able to explain why.
But thats my point, being able to form a logical, objective, and well thought out argument is important to debate.
Now? Fanboys and trolls dont care about facts. They dont care about common sense or even supporting the crap they say.
Its just a bunch of (hypothetical) 5 year old bullies on a playground throwing dirt at others.
They dont care if what they say is factual, and if something doesnt fit their agenda...........just spin it so it does.
There has been DOZENS of articles written by veteran gaming journalists, some retired, some still working................about a certain faction of fanboy.
That is a problem.
Remember the crap Adam Sessler with through?
McShay?
Gertsmann?
This is a serious problem and pretending that just because this board is labeled "System Wars" means that this stuff is ok is insane.
There is a difference in healthy debate and flinging shit like monkeys.
ya, youre going to find fanboys for sure (on both sides of the fence), its been this way for a while. I figure as long as nobody is malicious about it then its all tounge-in-cheek (at least I hope it is). Best to avoid them if you want to talk about actual merits of a game or console
See, thats part of the problem.
False equivalency.
"On both sides" just isnt accurate.
That implies that "lemmings", "sheep", or "hermits" go to the same level of trolling, insulting, bashing, personal attacking as PS3/4 fanboys have over the past 6 years.
Seriously, just google it.
Read what they did to Adam Sessler.
What youtube comments are like.
Why do you think most youtube reviewers have videos SPECIFICALLY addressing Sony fanboy comments or attitudes toward reviews they have posted?
It is NOT the same and you know it.
Or maybe you dont because you havent been around long enough.
Whatever, but pretending "well everybody does it" is simply false.
