1) Anything difference between your console and another comapnies' console MUST be a bad thing.

2) If the console seems to have ANY weak points, exploit them as far as possible.

3) If you play a game you don't like on another console, all the games on that console must be bad.

4) Read up on the history of all other console companies. ANYTHING thats ever gone wrong must be exploited to its full potential. Never let them forget it.

5) Never admit ANYTHING is wrong with your console.

6) If a game on another console is delayed, it is incompetance. If a game is delayed on your console, they are making improvements, so it is a better final game.

7) If anyone you know owns a console other than the one you support, you must never talk to him/her, and make life as difficult for them as possible.

8) If another person tries to contradict your post in any way, do whatever you can to stop them doing it again.

9) Never be rational. Never compromise.

10) Remember: If your consoles specs are bettered by another console, you must argue that specs don't matter. The extra processing/graphics poer will not be useful if there are no quality games.

11) However, if the specs on your console exceed those of another one, yours must be superior, as it will have better gameplay, graphics and sound.

12) Any publication supporting another console must be proved to be biased, childish, or ethicaly incorrect.

13) If you dont win an argument, or leave it unfinished, you are effectively betraying your console. Keep arguing, until your opponent gives in.

14) If you see that you cannot win the argument on facts, make things up.

15) Personal insults work well

A SMALL EXPAMPLE OF AN IDEAL ARGUMENT:

Person no.1:
The Gamecube will be really good, I mean look at the screenshots. The specs aren't that bad either, so hopefully the game developers will make something out of them. Some of the realease games look a little childish, but we have lots of others to look forward to!

Biased Poster:
But the GC runs on optical disks! The PS2's DVDs are much better!
And anyway, the GC has an ugly handle, so it cant play games well!
Oh, and by the way, Luigis mansion will be crap, I'v eplayed Mario style games before. If they cant even get a release game right, they'l all be crap!
If Nintendo are so good, tell me why the PSX was more popular than the N64? because Sony rule, and Ninty will never be able to live up to them!
And how can you say that the first generation of PS2 games aren't that good? They are excellent, I cant find a fault in a single one of them!
And how long was PDark delayed for? So we can expect to see the GC in early 2005?
And the specs? Pah! A few extra polygons wont be noticable! And even if the GC was to have a higher bit-level than the PS2, it wouldn't show on a 24 bit TV! Loser!
At least the PS2 has a decent mag supporting it! ALL the N64 ones are crap, especially NOM!
And anyway, Nintendo aren't making another console after this, and wil be develpoing games for the PS3! (Rule no. 14)


We hope that this comprehensive guide to being biased will help you to prove that your console beats all the competition.

Well, I can se this post is almost begging for a reply from me so here's my breakdown:

1) Anything difference between your console and another comapnies' console MUST be a bad thing.

**********************************
Well, possibly. I try to avoid things like that.
**********************************

2) If the console seems to have ANY weak points, exploit them as far as possible.

**********************************
Yup, done that before. But who doesn't?
**********************************

3) If you play a game you don't like on another console, all the games on that console must be bad.

**********************************
Now that I have done almost. I have played 6 Nintendo games and I didn't like 5 of them. Therefore, I conclude that if this is the best it can offer, the rest are not for me.
**********************************

4) Read up on the history of all other console companies. ANYTHING thats ever gone wrong must be exploited to its full potential. Never let them forget it.

**********************************
Nah, far too much effort to waste on Nintys ;-)
**********************************

5) Never admit ANYTHING is wrong with your console.

**********************************
Now Have admitted there are a few things wrong with the PS2 unlike all of the Nintys.
**********************************

6) If a game on another console is delayed, it is incompetance. If a game is delayed on your console, they are making improvements, so it is a better final game.

**********************************
Hmmm. Never come across this.
**********************************

7) If anyone you know owns a console other than the one you support, you must never talk to him/her, and make life as difficult for them as possible.

**********************************
That's persecution.
**********************************

8) If another person tries to contradict your post in any way, do whatever you can to stop them doing it again.

**********************************
How? I WANT TO KNOW! MWWHAA HAA HA HA HA HA HA!
**********************************

9) Never be rational. Never compromise.

**********************************
Oh this just screams Ninty.
**********************************

10) Remember: If your consoles specs are bettered by another console, you must argue that specs don't matter. The extra processing/graphics poer will not be useful if there are no quality games.

**********************************
Nintys always do this.
**********************************

11) However, if the specs on your console exceed those of another one, yours must be superior, as it will have better gameplay, graphics and sound.

**********************************
Never done this either.
**********************************

12) Any publication supporting another console must be proved to be biased, childish, or ethicaly incorrect.

**********************************
I don't need to prove that NOM is biased, childish or ethically incorrect.
**********************************

13) If you dont win an argument, or leave it unfinished, you are effectively betraying your console. Keep arguing, until your opponent gives in.

**********************************
Loads of people say I do this, but the truth is I argue for fun.
**********************************

14) If you see that you cannot win the argument on facts, make things up.

**********************************
I have seen a Ninty do this before, but I have not done it intentionally to the best of my knowledge.
**********************************

15) Personal insults work well

**********************************
*cough* SIMON!!! *cough*
**********************************

Ah well, that was a good post. Well done Dan.
