It's because EVERY topic on consoles lead to people arguing and rabid fanboyism, and it's just sickening.
fine, then don't read it, nobody forces you. I don't understand that. Why go into a forum that either annoys you or you have no interest in? And not everyone here is a fanboy. I prefer Nintendo games yes, but I also enjoy many games on the other systems.Quote:

Oh, and the people arguing are invariably fanboys, it's painfully obvious how much of a Nintendo fanboy Tidus A is, though I'm unsure about Maxi.
And look, you're trying to turn this into another argument, it always ends up this way.
And if you're going to append every post with "THE JACKAL", why not just change your name to "THE JACKAL", and then you don't have to end your post with it. Or put it in your signature?
It's not enough not to read it. We have a responsibility to society to put a stop to it.
That too. End fanboyism, it does nothing but hurt the reputation of gamers, and the people who like games purely for the games, not for the company.
Oh wait, I took that seriously, darn.
you take everything too seriously, including me typing THE jackel... I like doing it so I do it, again it hurts no-one. I don't want to change my name, and I don't want a signature, so I sign with THE jackel
there are other more important arguments in this world, so if you want to go out and stop one, choose something better. Gaming and fanboys is not exactly a number one thing to fix. In every aspect there are fanboys. Sports, movies, games, music. There's not something you or anyone can do to change it. I'm not saying leave the forums all together, but you need not read this thread. You realize how many times on many forums I go in and read something so blatantly stupid or annoying, so I just leave. If you don't enjoy it, don't participate. Yeah, me trying to start another argument, no, me saying something that makes perfect logical sense. Here is an example, if you are not gay, and don't like homosexuality, and you walk into a bar, and see it's a gay bar, are you going to sit there and complain about it, or just leave?
THE JACKEL
No, I think I'd order a drink and enjoy the music.
And you need to not take everything so seriously, if you didn't realise I was poking fun at you with my last comment.
You're saying I shouldn't post because I don't like it, well I equally have the right to complain as well, so why shouldn't I? Perfectly logical as well.
All right, you can post, but you also have to be ready to have someone post in regards to what you said and possibly create an argument. Freedom of speech is an interesting thing. People always believe that you have the right to say whatever you want with no penalties. No, freedom of speech means you can say whatever you want, but you should also be able to face the consequences or results for your statements. I say this and people are like, then doesn't everyone have freedom of speech everywhere? No, because people would kill them or shut them up some other way and prevent them from saying anything.Quote:

(and actually the mods made it so whenever I type JACKAL it's capitalized and even with spelling mistakes, so I'm not going and changing what I do when they did it just for me!)
THE JACKAL
Not to sound snotty, but isn't this a tad bit off-topic?
Objection overruled!
You're lying gosh darnit, and I can prove it!Quote:

And the reason I was pointing out about starting an argument was because my comments were, in the first place, about an argument, so the irony of it was painfully obvious.
idk, I just can't wait to experience the new controller with the revolution. I mean FPS games, they should be truly awesome. I'm sure the other systems will have their great games too, but I also heard the new Zelda has special features on the Revolution using the new controller, and the most logic connection is that the controller is your sword, that'd be cool too.Quote:

Course I used to be a PS fan... till I 'saw the light' if you will... XD
heck i like ps3 and rev... i just dont like it when people diss one or the other.
meh, dont like anything Microsoft, and thats been that way since before MS was in gaming... XD
Anyway, seems Nintendo is the one that gets picked on too often... -_- or ignored... but thats just the way the general public is, follow the flavor of the moment... or whats popular in the media... =/
I'd rather wait and see, I don't care what the controller is or what the stats of the console are, I just want to see the games.
