Hell yea I do. If someone says "I'm thinking of getting an X1" I usually butt in with "you really might wanna reconsider that dude, the PS4 is much better hardware and arguably has the better games overall." also, if people diss my Vita, I be like "yo, the Vita has games" and then I'll name a bunch right in their face to their awe. What about you? Do you take SW to real life?

I could imagine lems do purely on the fact that the toxic PR of 2013 poisoned the well and they have to keep convincing their friends that Xbone is even worth anything now that they've 180d on so many shitty things they tried to implement.

No because I'm not bias towards any of the systems, if people want to buy something then who am I to tell them what to do with their money.

I remember when they a little while after they 1st came out and i was in the store and these 3 teenagers came in and were talking to the sales rep and was like i want to get titanfall is that out it looks awesome. and the guy was like it comes out in march and he's like ok. and the store guy is like we have the xbox one here and he was like i hate MS I'm getting a PS4 and the store guy was like we have them here too but titanfall won't be on it and the kid was like whatever probably sucks anyway.

I promote PC gaming in real life, but I work in a building with about 600 slacker geeks. Mostly the conversation goes like this:

Person A: "Hey, Steam sale starts today."

Person B: "Awesome!"

Person A: "Yep!"

So I guess I can't really claim to be a real life system warrior.

I wouldn't unless someone else started saying crap to me about what I'm buying when I'm at the game store. They never have, so I have no reason to.

I used to notice that many of the people who worked at a Game Stop I went to were Xfans because of the way they acted when I would talk about PS3 games. It's tacky to be that way when you're working in a game store.

Righto.

Entirely plausible. I bet there's still people out there who still believe that the Xbone is what it was in 2013. Guaranteed. Therefore lems will have to 'defend' it by setting the record straight.

Similarly, I bet there are people out there who still object against the dogshit years of the PS3. Ignorance is ignorance. Still, numbers or be quiet.

Well sometimes, a casual gamer friend says "dude why do you still game on PC? That shits so expensive and complicated and dying. Nobody does that anymore".

I usually just tell them they're a peasant and wait for their reaction. Never really try to convince them though.

No, but if they're mis-informed about any console I'll try to shed some light for both so they can make their own decision.

I did convince one of my friends to get a 360 last gen though (after he bought a PS3) and now I'm trying to convince some friends that got a XB1 to get a PS4 also. But mainly just because I want to game online with my friends, not necessarily because I'm loyal to a console. I plan to get a XB1 at some point.

I don't even talk about videogames outside of the internet. I have respectfully let Gamestop employees know that I have zero interest in Xbox if they try to push on one me though.

I did when the ps3 was 600 I got one. People thought I was crazy but a blu-ray player was over 1k at the time. I had was happy to pay it as I had a HDTV and no hd content.

Not really but i do laugh at some1's face when i hear him say "Sony's ps4 is bad because it has no games" implying his Xbone has any. This makes me laugh every time.
