Mav, it wasn't aimed at you in general, you have a sensible perspective on your opinion, it's just some "ninty's" seem to disregard anything thats not Nintendo, brandishing Nintendo's work brilliant because the "developers are already hardcore gamers"

You see thats why it is the workers who make the game companys, programmers move around so often that they go to company to company. Which is why i cant see how they can have that added feeling for the games. What facts do you have that they care about there games more?

I guess this was half aimed at me, given the discussion in the other thread. Let me clarify.

I just feel that Nintendo are one of a few who still care about the games themselves, as musicians care about their music. I'm not saying they're the only ones; companies like Ubi Soft are also good examples. But you can just tell when companies like EA make cash-in titles with little thought.

Nintendo are an icon for a dying ideal, which is why I'd like to see them survive independently.

He was hoping that if he gets Xbox owners to join him, then facts will suddenly become fiction.

However it doesn't work like that for two reasons:

1. Facts are facts.
2. A few of the regular Xbox posters also have GameCubes. I for one.

He's a bit of a spoon really.

Yeah I agree, one of the main reasons that I bought an xbox was because my ps2 broke. And I was never playing it either. Just hissed alot and then died, twas a great funeral :P

By the way, what the hell is the idiot who started this topic on about? 'I support xbox by the way' Sounds to me like a fu**ing cult or something or a jehovis witness pussyfooting around the beliefs of a jew. What a f**king retard.

True, its all about taste. I mean if everyone had the same taste they would probably have the same opinon and therefore there would be know need for any politics. Just a fact of life.

It's not the fanboys that suck. I'd call myself a Nintendo fanboy. After all I have a huge amount of Nintendo stuff and love most the games more than any others.

However, I still enjoy my Xbox and dare I say it, the odd game on PS2. I'd actually like to emphasise 'odd' as it is odd for a PS2 game to be enjoyable.

It's those who don't look at things from a number of perspectives before forming an opinion, Belldandy for one, who suck. "I am right because Halo 2 will sell more copies than Zelda" - that's the kind of attitude that sucks.
