Well I went into hollywood video just to check out some movies and a game with my mom. So I come acroos Genji and I had thought "cool they have PS3 games now only if I had one LOL", but then I look at the cover and it says it's for PS2 ( sorry if I am late on just getting the news that it was released for PS2). So I get it just to try it out even though it had bad scores. I go to the check out line and the guy is checking it out and I ask "is this really for PS2 or did you just accidently put it in there"? So he completely ignores my question and goes "Man don't even buy the PS3 man it doesnt offer anything special it not even worth it and the only thing it has is a blueray player". Now I'm thinking WTf that's not what I ask. My mom ask him do you have one? He says no he has a 360. Then all of a sudden all I could think of is "BINGO 360 FANBOY". I'm tellin you man these fanboys are ignorant.

I hate that, sometimes I can't control myself and I get angry, because of people's ignorance. Especially when it comes to 360 vs PS3, not that the 360 is bad I just don't like to hear the PS3 compared to it and GeOW and the PS3 getting bashed, or when it comes to the Wii's controller and sixaxis.

yep and if i wanted innovation i would buy the new falcon controller for the PC for innovation. That way i get better graphics AND a new innovative way to play games. I remember when the duck shooting game with the gun came out. Sure it was fun for a while but for me and my brother it got really old really old really fast.

seriously! this is getting annoying... people need to keep their opinions when working in a store (customer service) to themselves... only speak when spoken to!

THIS is seriously getting on my nerve... OMG! people buy what they want! and like what they want!

they try to mislead you so you buy a 360 so 360 wont fail thus their investment.

Look at xbox! omg fanboys I hate them all~!

I wouldn't classify myself as a kid. Unless they still do classify 15 and 16 year olds as kids..... but anyway the thing that really got me was when he tried to say that the 360 cost more than the PS3. Sure it does if you buy it alone with no other add ons but I nearly wanted to just explode on telling him that if you add it all up (360 with all the stuff it would need to equal the PS3) it cost 100 dollars more for the 360 than to just get a PS3.

Well, it isn't worth it now, he has little truth in that statement, but he does sound like a fanboy. If he wasn't a fanboy, he would have answered your question like a good employee, instead of going off like that.

Wii fanboys are the worst. They say that Wii is innovative, but why? The motion sensitive controllers? No, Nintendo actually stole that from Microsoft. In 1999 Microsoft released some games for PC that came with a motion sensitive controller, but I guess fanboys are to busy bashing to get their facts straight.

Uhmm i only had this happen at Best Biased, but for soem reason ever since the PS3 launch, they havent given me problems. I was looking at the games(pre-launch, november 10-13) and the guy was like "dont buy a PS3, the suck bad and have no good games and costs more then a 360". I replied with "future shop is down the street, they seem to have PS3 stuff so i will go there" and thats were all my games(besides Genji) and the PS3 were all purchased. There are 4 eb games in my city, 3 big ones and 1 SMALL one, the small one isnt good at stocking anything so i dont consider them.

Out of these 3 stores, 2 of the 3 are good, but the 3rd one, WOW, guy was hating the PS3 sooo much. The one i like most is the one where the guy is non-biased to anything. He likes all consoles. Im going to pre-order motorstorm someday soon from him too.

You PS3 exclusive guys need to chill and stop trying to validate you choice to stay with one system alone. If it's your choice to go with a system that has little games and a very high price tag then ignore the people that question your logic. I for one don't belive for a second that the PS3 will fail or even do poorly but it is a choice of mine not because of price but for content to not purchase one at this time. My only gripe with Sony is that it is slow to respond to a changing marketplace. Everytime I go to retail store someone just has to start up a PS3 vs 360 rant all the while the Wii is selling milions along side the 360. I believe all this negative press that Sony is getting now will be good for the company in the long run. Sony needs competition.

theres a difference between actually owning a 360  and being a fan boy who wants to b!tch non stop with BS if you think everyone that owns a 360 is a fanboy id suggest you seek help and fast your self, also i didnt SAY owning a 360 makes you under educated, get a clue

I am a big sony fan and i have never pushed what i feel about it on anyone, hell i even owned a 360 for a year.(also a xbox,gamecube,ps1&2, n64,supernes,sega genesis,original sega,and so onand so on) But i can say i have encountered this same attitude as the original poster has. One occasion in particular was when i was in staples purchasing a new wireless router for my house. The staples employee(who was helpful at first) asked me what i was going to be using it for. I explained mainly for gaming in my house, and my latop. Then i proceeded to tell him that i was planning on getting a ps3 also to use in my network(this was back in oct by the way). He just about had a stroke, he told me that was a big mistake, how stupid could i be to buy into that, that the 360 is all that i needed . I politely said " I dont mean to be rude but im not here to argue with you on which system you think is better, i just came to buy a router and that was it." This infuriated him even more he just stared at me in the face with a dirty look. Then finally walked away. My point is the 360 fanboyism i have encountered is bad, it has to stop. Everytime i go into me local ebgames to look at a ps3 game or to purchase them the employees there make smart ass remarks. Sometimes getting other customers to join in too. The thing is all video games are great thats why we are all into them. Wether its xbox,xbox360, ps3, wii, gamecube,ps2,ps1,sega it is all fun and always will be. We all have the free will to choose and pick what we like .Why be so critical on other peoples choices of taste!!!!!!.

I'm not starting a topic that is "whining" about fanboys. It is just a topic that I thought would be a funny story because at first I didn't believe that people actually try to get you to nt buy a PS3 and that they would confront you about it. But then that happened and I was like OMG it's true. I actually think it is kind of pathetic and funny. It's kind of ironic how the way microsoft has been buying in to everything to have more of an advantage and that the fanboys are "in a way" trying to buy you in to believeing all of their biased crap.

Yeah, though I only only a 360, fanboys are all around us and most are a dick. I had a whole blog on some of the stupidest things I've heard around the web from fanboys. Though for one of you above saying 360 fanboys are "dumbness" that cracks me up I should use that word myself, but anyways dumbasses support any console mostly kids. The only way an argument starts is when one dumbass and just because you guys are PS3 owners and I'm not trying to piss you off, but its an example of not just 360 fanboys, this dude started saying: "OOOOOHH YEAAAAAHH! YOU **** ARE OWNED BY THE PS3!11!!! THE ONLY WAY YOU GET 1080ip support is if you go buy the elite! YOU BOYS BEEN RIPPED! (It went on alittle more but it didn't really make any sense and I don't remember) It went something like that it was on that Microsoft Cooking figure thing. Though everyone already knows there was an update it truely doesn't matter to me. Though by far I like to see stuff like this because it shows how much work they put into it. I like to leave this open because someone is going to report me for no reason, usualy a kid.

why don't i ever meet a fanboy like that?

The only guy I ever met like that said theat the xbox360 had the best graphics and no super pc could ever come close..

Even after explaining how games are made on pc's and some of the specs he still went on about how amazing it looked on his hdtv and that no super computer comes close..

i just called him a dumbass and went to the pc section ;)Â
