The constant bickering & slandering of fellow gamers,game devolpers,consoles etc.

I have no idea how,when, or why video gaming has become so political. I started playing video games because they are fun and enjoyable for people of all ages but it seems since the next-gen console war is upon us its rather difficult to be open with your opinions regarding video games to all gamers without being slandered and ridiculed. For example why is it that if you own xbox 360 you MUST slander and think very little of Sony and their PS3 or if you own Sony PS3 you MUST slander and think very little of Microsoft's xbox 360. I don't understand this at all and do not know why gammers MUST  dislike each other and constantly bicker with one another regarding what games they play and more importantly what console they play it on.

I completely agree with you; but I suppose that's just arrogant human nature to join into special interest groups or gangs to so everyone can "belong" to something. In our case its Xbox fanboys and Playstation fanboys. It's the worst here in America where all we have is gangs and groups, I say let the little kids and immature adults fight it out as it won't ruin my gaming. If I can't afford both consoles than I buy the one that has the most games that I like. I care about games and that is all.

I wish there were more gamers like us man because this console wars is getting way out of hand.

FFVIIFan7008d ago

It all started with Apple and Microsoft. Which OS is better has been debated much longer than this consule war, and whenever MS put its foot in the console race, MS fans were just so use to arguing that their product was better that they kept on arguing. Also, PS fanboys enjoyed being the dominate console for almost a decade so whenever a new console comes along with promise they got all upidy and defensive.

wish we could all just get along.

Bullseye7007d ago

This is all healthy banter, no real harm done and ultimatley we are all gamers.Its our common interest in games that gives rise to these differences of opinion.Consider the alternative,everyone agreeing with each other over everything.If that were the case, then this site wouldn't exist. I can disagree with almost everything you post or the console you choose, but in the end we are united by are interest and enjoyment of video games.Don't get too upset,by the odd moronic comment, it just reflects the members

Rasputin20117007d ago (Edited 7007d ago )

First off: I am not saying that we all need to have the same opinion i'm just saying that some of the fanboys take the it too far by personally attacking each verbally in their comments regarding the opinions of others and that is what I think is ridiculous.

Secondly: It does not seem like the interest in games is whats is giving these gammers a "rise" it seems like all people want to do is argue about what console you play your games on NOT the actual games at all.

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.

Jingsing13d 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….

S2Killinit13d ago

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

Jingsing13d 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.

Tanktopmaster9213d 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
