I can only think of a few....race cars (like Toyota vs. Honda), movies (Star Wars geeks vs. Star Trek nerds) and maybe sports teams.  Can anyone else think of any?

I play in guitar in a blues band, and I have watercolors all around town, next to that I have school which isn't really a pastime.

Well on the forums they seem to spend all their time mass debating, so off the forums I'm guessing they spend most of their time masterb- eer, I better not go there.

Go to an Evolution vs. Creationist site and then compare it to this, SW is a walk in the park compared to that.

Yes, you are absolutely right. Or, go to a debate about Feminism, even between feminists... That's a subject you'll get your head bit off in.

That's stating the obvious, PMSing feminists are no joke.

Play all manner of sports, play guitar, bass and piano, clean my systems:P, watch old spaghetti westerns, Pixar movies and Star Wars movies, match ESPN and go to Devry University.

Edit: I also constantly re-read all the old Calvin&Hobbes books I have.:)

For real though,

Swimming, volleyball (my graduate school department has a rec team), walks (yea is simple but I like to), comedy movies/TV shows, some anime/manga, studying Japanese and Spanish languages.

Oh yea, and arguing ABOUT video games online instead of actually playing them when I'm at work/school.

In fact, While I like Star wars and don't care for Trek, I don't really care to argue about em so, yeah I guess it takes an impassioned person to do that.

Evolution debates are always fun to listen to though.

I think a lot of people got confused by the topic.  I'm not asking what other hobbies fanboys have besides video games.  I'm asking what other types of things, other than video games, have rabid "fanboy" support.  I mentioned Honda vs. Toyota because they each have their own devoted legions of fans and some of them are downright nasty towards the other.  Same thing with Star Trek vs. Star Wars. 

Again, I'm talking blind devotion.  Video games seem to be the most glaring example of this.  Thanks for the input though.

I play the bass guitar, keyboards, and drums in a band, but my favorite hobby is still gaming.
