Sure to ruffle a few feathers, but nothing short of painfully accurate, almost everyone will find a little something of themselves in this how-to guide about identifying people that love something a little too much.
From the article: "Over time, I've noticed that only certain games generate fanboyism, while others do not. Let's talk about who these fanboys are, so you can learn to spot them in the wild.
I'll just get the traditional fanboys out of the way. The easy to spot fanboys. Hmmm, let's see:
Halo Fanboys - Twenty something men that are visually identified by bulging neck veins, usually caused by screaming at anyone that doesn't bow down to Halo Jesus...."
MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.
MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.
That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.
I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
As the long-rumored Gears of War Collection looks like it may finally materialize on Xbox, the timing could not be better as Gears 6 and movie news swirls.
(Insert “It should be multi platform if Microsoft investors wants more money” JK here)
All jokes aside congratulations to all the gears fans it will be a blast I remember having fun on the first one on my 360 elite till got RROD and quit Xbox all together but that’s a story for another day.
Congratulations 🎊 🍾 🎉 🎈 🎉 🙏
I'm excited for this just aslong is on the pc also cause I don't have the newest xbox console.
Marcus Fenix and the crew could be back on your screens once more, as the rumored Gears of War Collection is near completion on Xbox.
Every article, console fanboy trite, all these years later. Let me explain it AGAIN, in simple terms for the fanboys. Sentient human gamers do have their preferred platform, however they will buy and own multiple platforms so they can enjoy the games they want to enjoy. I own and have owned multiple platforms, Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft and now Valve, simply to enjoy a wide range of games across a broad spectrum of platforms. It's great. You don't have to pick a 'team' and cheer them on through thick and thin, dissing the other 'team'. And for you 'VenomUK' to state 'Switch and PS5 owners are gonna love this', proves that you're a bit behind. Learn, enjoy, live, develop, trust and coexist if you can, life is better that way.

Well said.
This is why i never understand fanboying over hardware. This is not like a sports team, its just hardware. Why some people have this mentality to pick a side and stick with it and refuse to look at other platforms, therefore depriving themselves of games that are only available on those platforms. They are suppose to be gamers after all?
It's practically guaranteed to come to PC as well, if that's the case, I might pick it up after it gets a discount or two.
Thank goodness for pro gamer companies like Microsoft.... It's about time we unified platforms where now only corporate suits benefit! Pro gamers all the way. Thanks Microsoft!
I'm really shocked that Halo 5 still isn't on PC yet, almost everything is ported over and that's the only Halo game that hasn't been ported.
Take it with a grain of salt this leaker has been wrong many Times
The connection has been rumoured in the past so there's some credibility but it's more if it's actually in testing or not
tell u what gears 3 on series x same 360 game but in 4k and 60fps is a dream it looks crystal clear
The Series X enhanced versions of Gears 3 and Judgement can at times look like Xbox One titles.
Yeah i got into Gears 3 multiplayer last year. People still play it a lot. Tons of maps and looks great with the 60 FPS.
The like's of

You would have identified a Fanboy !!
Xbots Suck
Oh and Bloodmask
As someone who is normally pro-mocking of any sort of fanboy (particularly Corporate Fanboys), I have to say, this wasn't terribly funny.
Hehe very very good :)
The only fanboys that seem to take their console loyalty to an unrealistic proportion are the Microslaves. The Microslaves on N4G have been known to post baseless and simply untrue facts about their console and the gaming industry in general. Their sole existence should be terminated from life period.
Thankfully Dark Sniper has his legion of Sony Snipers who indulge in a mature, respectful community here at N4G. With your help, we can get rid of the disgrace of the internet community known as Red Light 360 Baboons.

It's a tragic shame that N4G is so infected with Xbot PIGS. Their fanboyish loyalty to Nazisoft is truly sickening! Sony Soldiers, you must help your King to purge this site of the SWINE and stop them from spreading their notorious verbal diarrhea.
However, King Kaz is grateful to have such a respectful, logical fanbase! Sony Soldiers- thank you!
MWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!
