I dont follow sports at all but you were pissed about it because you wanted him to be on 'your' team, but after you calmed down you finally realized that "he sucked anyway."I don't follow sports. I couldn't ever get into it because I don't care who wins! :D I never formed an emotional attachment to any team.
Quote:I'm not saying you're wrong or anything, but yes, it makes perfect sense to get angry at a company for not releasing Burnout 3 or Revenge on other consoles and call them idiots for doing so.But that point seemed directly aimed at people who one moment talk about how much Nintendo games suck and the next talk about how they want Nintendo to go third-party and develop for their console.
Quote:A sequel to Harry Potter: Adventures in Harmionie's Budding Bush should not be anticipated as much as a new Zelda or FF game. although.... I would actually really like.... anticipate...... nevermind.But it's not just the bad games that get slammed as being "rehashes". It's any sequel that's not on the fanboys console of choice.
Quote:This is directly talking about the Eye Toy.Really? The first thing I thought of was the Nintendo DS. So many people have slammed it as being merely a gimmick.
Any of these examples could of been from fanboys of any of the current consoles. (Well except for the third-party one) I've seen pretty much all of these examples at one time or another.
It's not [Insert console here] fans that are the problem. It's people who take it to the next level. These people believe that liking their console of choice isn't enough, they must also hate any other current console, it's games and it's fans. And in trying to "prove" their system is the best they create some of the most idiotic and sometimes very amusing "debates" on the internet.
