"To see how much hate they have for their competition I asked my next question. “If you were stranded on a desert island with only a (competitor’s console) and a 42’ Plasma, would you play it?”
Mike (Sony) “Yeah right so I could be frustrated when it crashes every two minutes. I don’t think so; I would get a coconut and make up a new game."
Rory (Microsoft) “Probably not, what are the chances that it would work anyways. It would most likely have a disc read error. I would take it apart and make a gadget MacGyver Style!”
Marcus (PC) “Maybe I would play it if I could not find food and went insane from the lack of nutrition, but that would be the only way, and even then I would be hallucinating so I would think that it’s a PC."
Raphael (Nintendo) “HAHAHAHA, yeah right, I would more likely use it to wipe my A@#. If I was on a deserted island I would rather die of boredom then play those wastes of space!"
The best part IMO
"So what is it that makes a fanboy, a fanboy?
These questions revealed to me the ultimate character flaws in every fanboy. That first is one of prejudgment. I asked each one if they had played the competitions hardware at least once and each one of them said that they had at most 2 hours of play on those machines. How can you judge something if you have never given it a chance? This is like taking a Porsche for a test spin around the parking lot! It doesn’t make much sense, but when has a fanboy ever made sense?
They must also possess a complete lack of reasoning. Being reasonable would kill every argument that they make and they would not be able to exist. Thus the lack of reasonability is a natural step in their evolution. Darwinism at work!
Next is a complete disregard of facts. I have personally witnessed fanboys proclaim that the Wii’s graphics will not be far behind those of the PS3 and 360. It is those kinds of statements that make fanboys dangerous to our ears.
The belief in anything is another large fault all hardcore fanboys share. I am not trying to pick on Sony fanboys but they seem to be the biggest offenders in this category. Can you say Emotion Engine or Killzone 2. These fallacies’s put forth by gaming companies are like fanboy cocaine; they give fanboys the first taste for free then they make them pay for it when they are hooked. Unfortunately there is no methadone clinic for fanboys."
