Dear Fanboys...

But.... the Commodore 64 is the best thing ever invented by any race, existent or otherwise, with intelligence. How dare you say I might be wrong?

Seriously though, they can be irritating but also very entertaining. Some of the comments on Killzone 2 reviews were quite priceless.
 
But nothing beats nes games. Who needs current gen when you have good old city connection:p
 
But fanboys make life more interesting, because those of us who really know what we're talking about can sit back and enjoy as they battle it out.

Some times you can't blame people for having a little pride and honouring their chosen console to their best of their abilities. Then again, it probably takes a stronger PS3 fanboy to stand up and say, "well, you know what, the Xbox 360 isn't half bad."
 
dear god that was hard to read. i stopped midway and closed the window.

:edit
suppose that's what happens after reading too much white papers on sharepoint :D

No, yes and depends on if she is hot or not. :p

There are so many variations on fanboys, it is scary. I'm pretty sure we all have our one topic we are really passionate about and would staunchly defend it. The difference is personally I willing and able to listen to a well presented argument that points out the flaws on my subject. And this is what separates fanboys from mature and reasonable people in my opinion.

And let's face it, most of these X-Box die-hards, or PS3 passionatas, or PC playboys only own one platform, because as the lady pointed out, his mom can only afford one and fewer still have genuinely given another platform a try.

I was always a PC only gamer, until I acquired my PS3 in May this year. I initially was only really going to use it as a blu-ray player until I bought Red Dead Redemption. And now I have realised how much fun the PS3 is. If I could afford it, I would get a X-Box as well for titles like Alan Wake and yes Omega, Halo also. So I think that if these chops would simply give another platform a chance, firstly they would see they all have their place and secondly see how similar they all are and lastly, the PC is still king! :p :p :p

And that is only the console fanboys. What about the COD vs BF idiots? Or the Android vs iPhone chops. Or the MacDonalds vs Steers? (ok, Steers wins every time) Or the Linux vs Windows? Or the House vs Greys? Like I said, everyone in life has his or her chosen subject that they feel very strongly about and rightly so. Each to his own, but also be aware that someone else, incredible as it may seem to you, might not like Halo...

Well said!
I was a PC die hard but when I saw that UC2 was coming out I said I have this game! So I got and said that I would only use it for this game but then I played God of War and GT Prologue and wow, I was hooked. Now I buy everything for my PS3 except for strategy games. I've also played the 360 and I must say that it is a great console too. I prefer the 360's XMB (Dunno what its called) to the PS3's XMB. I also like the avatar chap :D so much so that I'm gonna get myself a slim in December! But I must say that the PS3 is my 1st and foremost fav platform :D
 
I know it starts off as "Dear Fanboys ..." - but it wasn't really a letter to them was it. It was more of a rant. In general :p

I'm sure that happened because you used the wrong platform to write it on. You shoulda used mine, because it is, y'know ... BIGGER :D

Loved the first comment on that article - Full of WIN that was :)
