We Love To Hate Eachother

You know...I was reading through comments today and I came across a certain N4G users comment and he said something like
"I hate this website". Yet he still comments on daily basis. Then I thought to myself, if he truely hated this website he would just go to another game news website or simply not read the comments.

Then I started thinking about why I spend more time reading the comments then the actual story, when it occured to me.
Being a Ps fan..If there were only sony fanboys on this website touting how the ps3 owns all and xbox sucks, and every news is good for sony and bad for xbox, I would be so extremely dulled out of my mind.

I think what keeps the comment sections so interesting for me, is to see how so many people can view a subject on so many differen't levels and have many differen't opinions.

And then the usual suspects come out to play.

The Xbox users of this website are overrun by the Sony users, so why don't they go to a news site where there are more xbox fans?

I think if we truely disliked the people we commented with on this website as many many people have stated, then we wouldn't come back. But we do. Every day. I think there is a part of each regular user on N4G who comes back eager to see what the opposing regulars can spin on the next news post. And their day wouldn't be complete, without viewing that complete objection or opinion.

Everyone disagrees with eachother so often it would seem as if you hated eachother sometimes, but I think it's why everyone comes back.

I guess what im trying to say is...In a very strange and obscure way, you don't hate eachother nor dread the fact that someone you disagree with all the time has just made an essay on a news article, but await it with some sort of pleasure and satisfaction as if it's all part of the enjoyment and experience and without it, it would seem much emptier.

If you can get your head around the weird crap im talking about..well.....Im sure it wont change a damn thing but I Just throught id try.

but I think the article doesn't make any sense. Eachother wtf is that ??

We love to argue this is what forums were designed for. I am a member of the Home website and the conversations on there are just plain boring it's nothing but speculation and people talking about how much they hate xbox. I personally own all 3 (360, ps3, wii). I like the exclusive games for each one and individually I like different things about each one from a hardware standpoint. I've never understood why the debates get so heated though, you like xbox and you like ps3, leave it at that. I enjoy the debate but I will never understand the necessity to side with one over the other. They all have something to offer.

This is one of the reasons i come here. I do enjoy seeing people argue with each other over anything. On occasion though during these arguments a god point or to is often made and that is fun also.

comments. I can't read the stories while I'm at work so I read some responses to find out what was said and gauge my reaction from it. I have been on N4G for quite a while and there are always certain people I look to for real constructive comments, other I may peruse.

LJWooly6650d ago

The only problem is the people who actually take themselves seriously, and outright refuse to even consider that whatever it is they're supporting may have a weakness of some sort. It's sad, and I lose the will to argue with them because you just cannot get any sort of understanding from them.
I write this with a particular person in mind, but I won't say any names...

Or will I??? [spoiler] Genunine [/spoiler]!!!

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing9d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit9d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing9d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster929d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
