Fanboyism

Alright, my first post is going to be a rant.

I was surfing through the system wars board and I saw a ton of fanboyism. It's stupid. Why can't people be happy with the console they have, and if they aren't, get the other. The arguments aren't even good. All the fanboys have the same argument for hating a console. Usually to do with system problems or features. Here are the basic arguments I see against each console:

X360: Red Ring of Death

Wii: Sucky graphics + not made for hardcore gamers

PS3: Expensive paperweight with no games

These arguments are all exagerrations. The RROD has a much lower chance of happening than at the beginning of the 360's life, and Microsoft has been working on fixing the problem. The Wii might not have the best graphics, but they aren't that bad, it's up to the developer to work with what they have; and while the Wii may be more geared towards the casual gamers, the Wii still has a decent sized lineup of games either out or coming out for the hardcore gamer.. The PS3 may not have a big line up now, but it's got several games lined up for the next couple of years to make it a good contender with the 360.

In conclusion, fanboys are just a bunch of kids who either can't afford more consoles and regret it or don't want to because they think they owe their loyalty to one company or the other.
