Whats the most ridiouclous thing out of gaming?
I think debate topics and fanboys . Those people are insane. Games are supposed to be about having fun eh?
but instead its kind of stupid when Im talking to someone , they got the stupid of mentalility of saying sony sucks or microsoft sucks. A bunch of useless nonsense I dont care about.

I think Fanboys are more a product of the anonymous internet chatroom.
I had Atari as a kid, Sega as an adolescent and Playstation as an adult. Of course, I had Intellevision/Nintendo/Xbox friends, and never once did we get into a pissing match like I've seen in chatrooms. We generally appreciated playing different games than we had ourselves and enjoyed the best of all worlds.
It's just kiddies acting tough on the Interweb.
The strangest thing about gaming to me is the equation where
Hyped game "X" is blasted by critics and the public alike, but sells well due to said hype and/or license.
Then game "X" gets an equally crappy sequel, which again is a top seller. Repeat... x_x
It doesn't get any more serious than a Rhinocerus about to charge your ass.
I've met a Microsoft fan-boy in real life. I was totally surprized, and I stopped talking to him. I said that Half Life is easily the best FPS ever, and he just started swearing and calling me names saying that there was no such thing (FPS) until Halo. Wow.....

Xbox live voice chat. Never have so meny racist homophobic who swear like tiny little sailors been in one place.
When I was a kid, I was a Nintendo fan, as were most of my friends. We knew a few people that were into Sega, and while we would argue about which was better, there were always smiles on our faces and we never actually resorted to personal insults. Whether this was an exception and not the rule, who knows.
These days? Well, I was in a game store a few years ago and was called a fag for expressing my OPINION that I thought Halo was overrated.
These days too many people think their opinions are fact, and get way too defensive if your favorite game/console is not also their favorite as well.

I agree about Fanboys, but debate topics? isn't that what we're all about here, debate and discussion?Originally Posted by Richter Belmount
Sure you get a few people ruining the debates with their inability to accept reality and their obsessions, but there's a lot of good debate too.
x_x oh god you reminded of the kids from xbox live , they think people really want to hear them sing on it ,whine or try to talk ghetto. That was enough for me unplug my headset.

I do agree about fanboys which are bad but I think debates are a natural part of everything.

Agreed. I rarely use my headset but the other night I thought I'd give it a try on Bicycle Casino and even though there were only two other people at the blackjack table, the language was appalling - I thought that kinda stuff was the mainstay of FPS games.. obviously not.
I tend to only use my headset in private games with my friends and Fellow DP users.Agreed.

I think I need to build up my Friends list - I have two on there at the moment but they're FPS/PGR fans so I've never played anything with them!
VG movies. I just can't stand them at all. So terrible.

Cosplay
I think we have a winner here.
Honorable mention: Fifty Cent: Bulletproof
The Doom Marine, the guy from Wolf3D, and Duke Nukem all weep for the future.I've met a Microsoft fan-boy in real life. I was totally surprized, and I stopped talking to him.

I'll second that nomination of "cosplay".
And i'll also agree that overly-biased fanaticism is by far the worst.

Hmmm....
My vote is for Cho Aniki.
Or maybe Cho Aniki cosplay.

The moral is, don't **** with Uncle Tim when he's been drinking!
cho aniki is godlike! i hope they release another installement soon..maybe a beat 'em up? (please!).
50 cent: BP isn't as bad as people claim it to be. i'm not partial to mr fitty, but there could have been a less believeable rapper as the protagonist. that damn camera should have been fixed prior to release though.
Wneh I read the title, I was sure in my heart-of-hearts that the answer was cosplayers. But then I was reminded of xbox live chat, and so I must declare it to be a tie.
