It's like Autobots and Decepticons, Democrats and Republicans, Elvis and Michael Jackson. There will never be an end.

LOL bullshit!!! at that title. what's the point if you don't have loyalist. how is anything going to move forward at the rate it does if their were no competition.for all i know we could have still been playing 2D side scroll-ers if it weren't for the impending competition on Nintendo. their must be fans for every competitor. their must be a common goal and something to differentiate them. thats why some support Barca over Man U or vice versa. at the end of the day this is the only thing that is going to push gaming forward. and in a sense has, turning it from something thought to be for nerds into something for everyone.

The fanboyism that really needs to stop is haters getting on other systems threads and being like "nintendo is for babies, wii u is dead", or "xbone isnt up to par with ps4 graphically, no one wants kinect", or "ps4 makes you pay, their system was hacked, hurr durr"...I tell you straight out I am a Nintendo fanboy, for more reasons than I really feel like listing right now, but I don't go into xbox and ps threads telling people "duh, er you shouldnt like your system because its a, um, er, crap and because my system is like so much more better"...which is rather absurd all things considered, bc if its so much better, why are you whining about other systems and not playing games?!? People need to grow up.

People do need to grow up, but look at how many responses this article got, the trolls are not reading this, they never learn, why don't they just enjoy their own systems and leave the other companies alone, why is so important to them that a video game company fails? what pleasure do they get out of it? trolls have no lives, and act childish just to get attention, nothing more.

It needs to... But it won't.

Some commenters on here really need to follow their own advice as for the article it was a good read ;)

I agree about about the over abundance of the negativity towards Xbox 1. Every article about the console is destroyed by PlayStation fanboys. I swear they scour the internet for anything Xbox related so they can trash it. Are all Sony fans like this? No most of them aren't. But the obnoxious few ruin it & it sets a bad example for all PlayStation fans.

Yes.... yes it does.

I disagree. And I point to how fanboys of everything else in the world are not only accepted but understood as necessary, and then I ask why gaming is treated differently.

You don't see folks in the auto world complaining that people need to stop being passionate about their love for Ferrari instead of Lamborghini. Star Wars and Star Trek fanboys (mostly) coexist.

But let the subject come to gaming, and suddenly it's a huge deal.

Can someone please explain to me why this is? Why any vaguely negative depiction of a woman is sexism if it's gaming, but it's just one character on TV?

Cuz so far, it doesn't make much sense.

Than make sure you post this on the PS4 tab!

Star Wars
For the record.

The term "fanboy" didn't arrive until Microsoft came onto the seen, with the Xbox360. With the online presence of Rep.Mangers. They are the ones that started the attack on Nintendo, as a kiddie counsel. and the illusionary Hard Core Halo Gamer.
When Xbox and their corporate dis*info agents came onto the scene, we got terms like "fanboy", "pwnd", and "hard core gamer"..,, All the while trying to divide and conquer gamers as a whole,. With the ultimate goal of an xbox monopoly, with DRM, as the crown jewel..

Superman will have a good video game by the time N4G stop the fanboyism.

It's human nature really. All you can do is be rational and support the one that works best for you.

If you prefer a specific system, why do you have to announce it? Just buy the damn system of your choice and keep it to yourself. Do any of you think anyone cares if you worship Sony or whatever?
