The Fanboy Peace Treaty Of 2007

The internet is a funny place. It's full of entertainment in every nook and cranny, especially the forums and comments sections. Not since the Sega Saturn/N64 days have I seen so much contempt in the form of video game advocacy. It's gotten to the point of disgusting. It's Playstation fanboys vs. Xbox fanboys and we are on round 100. It's time for the fans of the next generation systems to join hands and fight for what's really important…the games.

"It’s Playstation fanboys vs. Xbox fanboys and we are on round 100. It’s time for the fans of the next generation systems to join hands and fight for what’s really important…the games."

"Hating on another piece of plastic and silicone proves nothing. It shows that you are jealous, thoughtless, immature and brainless. Why not take all of that negative energy and use it to make your gaming experience better?"

"However, do you honestly think that if a game like MGS4 goes multiplatform that it will hurt the PS3? The PS3 has 6 million sold already. Konami will make their money from PS3 owners. They also stand to make millions from 360 owners. No system is going to die out because of a 3rd party game going exclusive. It’s just not gonna happen. You have nothing to fear."

AMEN BROTHER!!! HALLELUJAH!

Praise the Lord and pass the plasma/nectar/hollow points/turtle shells/plasmids/cerebral bores!!!

-Actually thats wrong. That how Sega Saturn got it's asskicked because of exclusive titles for the ps1.

Taker_1296071d ago

so if MGS4 went multiplat it would hurt sells of the ps3 alot, because there would be no need to buy a ps3. The same thing if Halo 3 came to the ps3 there would be no need to buy a 360. That's why exclusives sell consoles.

tordavis6070d ago

Actually, Sega Saturn lost on many fronts. Sony buying exclusives, poor development tools and the system was overpriced. Losing MGS did not cause the Saturn to tank.

Omegasyde6071d ago

Seriosly, I am quite entertained with the constant jarring. The only downside is when someone keeps posting the same "duh" fact.

Yes, the PS3 is more Powerful vs. PS3 has crappy ports from the 360.

Yes, The 360 has higher caliber games vs. Its been out 1 year longer

Yes, XBLA beats PSN, vs. so what, PSN IS FREE .

Yes, The 360 has a 1 in 3 chance of burning out (RROD) vs DelayStation 3.
Yes, Bluray is selling more movies (???) vs. nothingness.

Yes, MGS4 supposingly can be ported to 360 vs. 360 version would take 8 discs

Yes, The ps3 helps fight the war on deceases vs. Bill Gates has the cure for cancer already.

It would be nice if there was some new stuff for the fanboys to argue about. I guess I am one of the few that gets a kick out of the repetitive stupid crap.

Very well put. Have a bubble.

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

anast5d ago

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

Garethvk4d ago

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

anast4d ago

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk4d ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

1nsomniac4d ago

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

Garethvk4d ago

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
