So anyway, what's your oppinion on fanboyism? I personally find fanboys EXREMELY annoying because of their immidiate biased opinions and their one-dimensionalness (I dunno if thats even a word..) anyway, I'm not gonna say too much because its gonna start a full blown argument, either that or Tex'll close it for being hippocritical towards fanboys. (Similar to "take the piss out of n00bs" syndrome)

Anyway, oppinions.

cant say i like fanboys...just be open to other ppl's opinions and forget about it.

Try being stalked around an anime convention all day because you're a cosplayer...seriously, my friend and I cosplayed as characters from Final Fantasy X-2 at an anime convention recently (she was Songstress Yuna, and I was Lenne) and we now have fans. It's kinda creepy to have random people email you/IM you/PM you on message boards and say stuff like "OMG I LOVE YOUR COSTUME YOU ARE SO HOT!!!!11one"

But on a whole they don't bother me, so long as they aren't convinced that everything they say is right and what everyone else says/thinks is wrong.

Agreed.

PS2 fanboys are the worst. BLAH BLAH BLAH xbox sucks...BLAH BLAH BLAH....game better.....BLAH BLAH BLAH....xbox sucks.

think of something better to say or shut your damn mouths *directed directly at PS2 owners*

Without fanboys, there would be no society.

civilization as we know it would cease to exist

Yup.

Fanboys are annoying, but I can think of certain people who are more so

Bloody fanboys, they do my head in!!!!

Fanboys??? you mean those spoiled little kiddies that go around saying their own consoles are the best? YEAH! They are very annoying. They call themselves "gamers" but no "gamer" goes around saying things like "PS2 sucks" or "Xbox sucks". As far as I know gamers don't go around criticizing the consoles they criticized the games. All consoles have good games so to dissed a console is an sign of fanboyism!!

I tend to laugh at them.

I have nothing against so called 'Fan Boys', its up to them how they choose to live there life, the only thing that does tend to wind me up slightly is when ppl (not just 'fan boys') dismiss others opinions without any second thought as they are to fogged in with their own ideas, but back on point i have nothing against fan boys, they've done nothing to me.

yeah yeah...that's your opinion. why would i give anything you say any thought?!





(just playing)

I guess I'm a fanyboy, because I'm sorry, but the piece of S H I T called an Xbox SUCKS! Sorry linkalicious, but the system is horrible. The only good game on it is Halo, and no one say Vice City or GTA3 because they are better on PS2.

NO you didn't just go there......they are the exact same game. Rockstar's only change to the xbox version was the addition of a radio channel in the car for your personalized sound tracks. They didn't improve graphics, no new vehicles...nothing. and it's ok call xbox crap all you want.....you think Gamecube's the best system....shows what u know!!!

draco, this is the worst possible thread to show loyalty to a system.

what the hell is a fanboy....

sumone who runs around saying "ps2 rocks x-box sucks" or along those lines.

well i have a PS2, my cousin has a gamecube, and my buddy has an X-box. get three tvs and a pizza then oh man.....marvel vs capcom 2,SSB melee, and halo is all out crazyness

XBOX SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





J/K

i love my ps2, so you could say i'm a fanboy, but i know that it ain't the best console out there, xbox is far superior (i hate it though, cuz is a microsoft console), and gamecube, sometimes, is better than ps2, but i don't care.

it all comes down to one simple thing: THE GAMES.
If it's a good game, i don't care how, or in which console i play it, as long as i play it. i love HALO, FF and zelda, the same way i love tetris or pacman

Okay, arguing like that is just stupid. I myself only have a PS2 out of the three consoles, but that's because I really wanted Final Fantasy X. I'd like a GameCube and I'd like and XBox, but at the time when we got it, FFX had just come out and since Final Fantasy is my favorite video game series, PS2 won. But I'd really like to play Wind Waker and Halo, I just don't have the systems.

i dont think x-box is better the made a fast console with a almost dead selection of games. halo although great is really the only title. splinter cell could never be half as fun as metal gear

i'm not saying that any is worst than the other, all i say is a prefer ps2, but if i had the chance(money) i'd buy the other consoles

Thanks for saying xbox sux sith darth jay. It does. Like venomfan said, the only good title is halo, but even halo doesn't compare to MGS.

They did, they added finger animations in the cutscenes and the cars looked better (the alloys on the tyres, and the chrome on the car), and Draco, dude, you seriously have a problem with the XBox, it is the most popular system out, and is churning out some decent games, I don't mean to be offensive but you act far to young to be here, I'm not baised against any console, I own a PS2 and an XBox and I love the Resident Evil remake on the 'Cube but out of them all, the XBox appeals to me most.

And thats exactly what I'm trying to point out, fanboys are annoying one-dimensional little 12 year olds.

(Notices the slander and hides from Tex. )

yes..... that's true,

but it's still good game

xbox has a MGS, i've own MGS, and i of course own Halo. 2 totally different games so it's not something to compare. I personally played a crap load of Counter-Strike growing up so naturally Halo IMO is much better than MGS. Both are good games. And Graphically Splinter Cell on Xbox rips apart any and all MGS games. The really nice part of MGS is all the cinematics. *drops jaw in awww* But it all depends on what your interests are...

oh and to be fair...i never finished MGS because i lost interest. I used to buy like 2 games a week, so it was difficult to beat all or most of them before i started the next one.

i asume you mean MGS2 sons of liberty = substance, which is a crappy game, the cinematics are great (graphics) but the story is so damn lame, the game is way too short (there's only two levels, and n the last one you just get to play half the map). i was loving that game until i get to be inside arsenal gear, you don't get to unlock all the doors (unlike MGS), and then the game ends (after a nearly 1 hour finale, pretty impressive videos, but yet lame), i expected a lot more.
The gameplay is a different story, you can do nearly ANYTHING in that game, it's all up to you. your not limited to a certain comands or movements. there are lots of things that you can do, sadly you don't get to use then all.

MGS (ps1), is totally different. Is a masterpiece in everyway. excellent story, and equally great gameplay (limited to the ps1 power O/C)


i was comparing HALO to MGS1, but HALO is still a great game. They're both different, but i prefer MGS.

Someone needs to learn the difference between Apples and Oranges. Comparing Halo to Metal Gear Solid is nonsense. Both games are great so there is no point in comparing them.

Yes there is. MGS is better than Halo, but Halo is still a great game.

Nope, one is an Action Adventure the other is a First-Person Shooter. They are of different genres how can you compare them?

Because I can.

Wow, intelligent awnser.

Daedalus....how can you say "wow intelligent answer" to his 2nd response without saying. "wow intelligent comment" on his 1st remark. I'd poll whether or not MGS is better than Halo...but there are too many PS2 fan boys out there that would vote MGS w/o ever playing Halo. Kinda like the Link vs. Seph poll where i saw like 3 or 4 people who voted for Seph because they didn't know who link even was...

ok, ok... can't be compared

it's just that i prefer MGS, i'm not, in anyway comparing two really diferent games (i shouldn't have written "comparing HALO to MGS1"

one think tough:

linkalicious> hasn't it occured to you that not everybody who would vote for MGS is a fanboy???
i'll say then: there's so many Xbox fanboys that'd vote for HALO!!

just cuz i prefer MGS over HALO doesn't mean i don't like HALO

hmmm lemme see. I wasn't callin you a fan boy. Infact, i've never called u a fan boy. I know that you've played both because you specified that in your previous thread. I'm saying there are a whole sh*t load of PS2 people that would come into a poll (if i create it) and vote for one because they HAVEN'T EVEN PLAYED OR HEARD OF THE OTHER. just thought i'd clarify for ya there sith

ok , i just got a lil' irritate cuz lately everyone who likes a console other than Xbox gets called "a fanboy" around here

but that's the reason why is called an open poll; everyone can vote, and you don't really know who that person is, or if they've ever played the game. it should be enough if you like it, nobody can change your mind

you know what: why don't just drop the whole fanboy thing and discuss what really matters: the games

just ignore whoever says it sucks, and stick to your post, unless someone proves you wrong. there'll be many other consoles way better than the current ones, but they won't killed the classics

i think your comparing the overall gameplay factor, wich MGS draws you into the great story and challenging(i cant emphisize that enuf...)missions.
were as halo wich rocks on multiplayer is like a route-canal in singleplayer
theres little pay off for beating levels just short plain cut scene's.
even though beating the game by yourself on legendary is fun to show off the skulls to your buddies getting ready for a brawl

that's a fair way to compared them, although you will surely get bash soon enough

I'd vote for Halo because I prefer first person shooters to action adventures, but you really can't realistically compare the two, you can compare, however, MGS 2 to sonething like Splinter Cell, because they are both stealth games.
Same way as you can compare Halo to Half Life 2 (HL2 is gonna mop the floor with Halo.)

Link> I said it in the form of sarcasm, because he responded in a childish fashion, "because I can" does not carify WHY he can compare an action adventure with a first person shooter, its simply a matter of preference between the two genres.

I can see a great deal of tension here and I think some of you need to lighten up, were talking about COMPUTER GAMES, I dont know why some of you get so personal about it.
