Legitimate Constructive Thread: Why do we even have fanboys?

Or fangirls?

The whole concept of "My preference is far better than yours so fuck you" just seems beyond silly to me. Since the majority of you guys have Xbox Ones, can someone tell me what's wrong with Playstation (not just the PS4) in general? Why the hate? Why rip it a new one saying "Playstation sucks!"?

Now I get it if the current gen system sucks, because systems are subjective. They have pros and cons. Like for instance, I think Microsoft went the wrong way with the Xbox One, BUT I still love the Original Xbox and the Xbox 360, because those were both great consoles.

The PS3 was an okay system. I'm not going to praise that because it didn't really have anything for me. I borrowed a PS2 but never owned on. It had some fun games, but for the most part it was again, okay.

PS1, that is my fucking childhood right there. Before the Xbox, that system kicked a fuck load of ass vs Nintendo. So many games, Crash Bandicoot, Crash Team Racing, Spyro, Toy Story 2, Jet Moto, SyphonFilter, Gran Turismo, etc.

Not to mention before gaming got really popular, the PS1 dev kit was public and was available to order easily online in 1997.

But, let's go back to current gen here with the Xbox One and PS4. Right now, the PS4 is..... decent. It doesn't have a massive library of exclusives yet and both Xbox and PlayStation are going head to head in trying to be as similar as possible.

I'd argue that you can shareplay easily on PlayStation 4, but I'm pretty sure that's also possible on Xbox One as well. Both consoles really don't have anything banking for it at the moment, but in a general sense, why hate the brand? Okay it may not cater to you or your interests, but that doesn't mean it should be considered an abomination to gaming. It's just a company making money by selling systems, whether it's Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo. Why go apeshit over it every year?

Just play games. Your preference should stay that way, a preference.

Now personally, my preference for gaming in general is the PC, but even that honestly is no different from a console. To me, PC's are customizable consoles that can do more than just play games. Heck I consider mine to be a potential do it all dev kit even.

Anyway, I'm not here to change everyone's mind, but I'd just like to express how silly all of this is with "my shit is better than your shit" don't you agree? I mean it's childish. We're all adults here, I think it's time we handled this in an adult matter.

So with that said.... ALL CONSOLES SUCK! PC MASTER RACE FAGGOTS!

I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

Anyway, what are your thoughts?

It's a known fact that PlayStation is garbage that only idiots buy

Go back to Bnet Lonefish.

TL;DR

Because people like things a lot.

It's funny because it's true.

because it irritates me knowing that i live in a universe where people are objectively incorrect more often than not

Here's a better question: Why do you care?

It doesn't affect you. The only people who even talk about this have mindsets of 11 year olds and people like Lemon who try to rustle some jimmies. Christ, you act like a child with every post you make Deci. Grow the fuck up.

i mean i'm not even necessarily a fanboy of anything

but when i find something that i actually like, it only makes sense that i'd defend it obsequiously

I don't even have that mindset. I'm pretty neutral.

You are doing it to rustle jimmies with Deci, who fell for it. Everyone with an actual brain knows your real stance on the "issue".

PlayStation a shit

It's like what I talked about a while back with Verb. Fanboys exist because of comfort zones. Fuck sakes. Don't remember the term. It's a comfort zone. It's an established view. Break the established view and people get uncomfortable.

Fuck.

pure undisputed fact

Because people get attached to things they use/own, even more so if it costs a lot of money and they associate the quality of an object by comparison to other lines of product they've seen from the brand.

That and because their parents probably bought it

I'm sure you've seen the tweets about 14 year old kids hating their parents because they didn't spend $600 on the new iPhone for them.

Yeah. I've also seen a girl talk shit about her parents because they didn't buy her a certain colour iPhone for Christmas (white one I think)

Not really, this was actually a legitimate point here. Also after I made this thread, I actually had a dream where I owned an Xbox One with Halo MCC included.

Anyway you guys, I'm making a powerpoint presentation that's pretty much PS4 vs Xbox One. I'm going to remain neutral to both sides as best I can.

This is for school btw.

You know what Lemon? I'm actually trying to be a gentlemen here but I don't even know why I bother trying with you. I keep forgetting that you're just like Malcolm Tucker and you're pretty much going to shit on everything I say.

I'm done trying to be civil with you. Your headmeat refuses to work rationally
