Fanboyism does nothing other than result in you missing out on a lot of good games. So if by "loyal" you mean that you ONLY play Microsoft games, then no, I am not a loyal Xbox 360 gamer.

I stick with Jurassic. If by loyal, you mean fan-boy, then no. I have an xbox360, I have a PC. Would have had PS3 If I had the money to buy it. This way I get to play all the games I love. Though I always stick with the xbox360 gamepad, because it really is a piece of art.

Nope...I love my 360 exclusives "BUT" I'm a loyal GAMER in general!!! I love all of the people in the gaming community...PS3,Wii, 360,PC and Handhelds. It's good to see that fanboyism is looked down upon nowdays

No I am not, I can't say I am loyal to any console manufacturer to be honest (infact I may never buy another console after this gen unless its for my kids). The Xbox 360 has been a good console with out a doubt but brand loyalty is very odd behaviour.

considering i bought xbox on launch day 11-15-2001 and xbox live on launch day 11-15-2002. i feel like microsoft sold out on me period, feels like they're doing nothing to support the core gamers and everything they can for casual kinect gamers.

I am a gamer POINT BLANK. I would buy any system as long as I see it as a good investment. I would never label myself as a PS3 or 360 "gamer" aka fanboy. I grew up in this gaming generation where fanboyism wasn't on my mind....just gaming with a console worth gaming on was. :)

You get absolutely NOTHING from brand loyalty for any reason. I play games because they are good, not because someone specific made them. I'd ditch the fanboy attitude in favor of a more well rounded perspective. (I play PC, 360, Wii, PS3)

Same... I have a PS3 as well as a 360. So no I am not, but if you mean that I enjoy the 360, and I wouldn't sell it for a wii, then yes I am loyal - Yet not a fanboy. Erm... Yeah.

I believe Xbox is superior but does not make play just the Xbox. PC, PS3, and the Wii all have great games and experiences to offer as well

I dont see the point of being a "loyal" xbox gamer. I have the other consoles too. I dont work for microsoft and they dont pay me to just use an xbox why would I limit myself? I am not a fan of fanboyism.

I'm loyal to the brand because I like what they offer and the people who work there are good people.

I want good games and good multiplats and they give me that

I want a safe and secure online experience and they give me that

I want everyone to be able to play games and they give me that

No matter who I've met from Microsoft they seem really passionate about the platform and the software and it's direction.

I don't get people being upset over Kinect, more people playing games is never bad and even better people with disabilities who have never been able to play games before are now playing games and enjoying them.

I'm a fan of all forms of gaming but overall I'm happiest with what Microsoft is doing

Also, there's no point in being loyal to a company, when they aren't really loyal to us. Games diminish in quality over time, they stop caring about the base that made them what they are and capitalize on a brand name knowing that it will sell regardless of quality.

Actually Bill Gates is one of the most important humanitarians in the history of the world and while you don't seem to know it he's spending the majority of his enormous wealth trying to improve the Earth as a whole.

So, you're pretty much off there

No, the 360 is what I game on most but I would be open to game on other systems if I had the money. Simple as that.

Profit equals Wealth. The best thing about Wealth is that it Can be Shared. Look at all the Money that he's given to charity. By "Loyal" means i will continue to buy games for the Xbox 360. Have a good day :)

Not really. I was a Ninetendo fan up until the gamecube (still am, but not for consoles). Then I bought a playstation 2 became a sony fan boy as well. As for my 360 I was merely forced to buy it because of the PS3's ridiculous price :P

Still love my xbox 360 but I can't say Im loyal to the xbox as a whole

I guess you could say I'm a loyal fan for the time being...since I'd buy a multiplat for the 360 over my other console and It gets more of my gaming time. But that's really because the 360 is currently the best console. The minute another console comes along and improves my experience my loyalties will change.

How is that even relevant? Bill and Melinda Gates are charitable people, that's excellent. The thread is about being loyal to Microsoft. So because Bill Gates donates his wealth to great causes we should all be fanboys who spend our gaming dollar exclusively on Microsoft content? Guess what, I bet the execs and Sony and Nintendo are charitable too, they simply don't have as much name recognition as Gates. Besides Xbox is hardly synonymous with Bill Gates.

I got the 360 after my PS3 stopped reading discs a month after warranty expired. I was a Sony fanboy even though my PS2 had come down with DRE, but my PS3 suddenly crapping out was a big shocker. I sure as hell wasn't going to pay for repairs, so I got a 360. Even though this, too ,has disc reading problems, hell, it's served me longer than the PS2 and 3. No fanboy anymore, but my ''competitive'' gaming is mostly on XBL.

He was asking why should he care about Bill Gates, not too sure where you didn't see that :|

Also yes, the XBOX brand is seen as an arm of Microsoft and there's only one name when you mention that company

No, I understood completely. You mentioning Bill Gates as a humanitarian is still completely irrelevant. If anything you could mention Bill Gates as a businessman, because we are talking about a business that he built. Sure, he cares about human beings as people, but does he care about us as consumers? Doubtful. If he did Windows wouldn't have crashed will he was demonstrating it for the public a few years back. Technically he's "retired" so his caring about us as consumers is even less relevant for that reason too.

Would someone who cares about the consumer allow a product to be released from their company that has a 40% failure rate? No. Someone who cared about us would have done adequate testing pre-release to prevent that from happening. Even if it did happen, someone who cared about the consumer would offer an extended warranty, as opposed to capitalizing on someone's love for gaming by forcing them to buy a new system, or providing them with a refurbished one with the same issues (I'm on my first xbox 360, so this is not a personal vendetta on my part). So no, Bill Gates does not care about us as consumers. I like Gates alright, but I disagree with your statement.

My Xbox 360 is the only console currently gracing my living room, but I am not solely a 360 gamer. I'll play a good game that's on the Wii or the PS3. Hell, I'll even pick up a DS if the occasion calls for it.

Hey! I found you. Anyway, as far as the topic goes, I love "MY" Xbox 360. I am not strictly an Xbox 360 gamer and I am definitely not a MS fan. My next computer will be a mac.

The overpriced mac is no where near as good as a PC...

Not sure what that is, but I do prefer the Xbox 360 more than the other two I own.
