That's it, I am sick of this, I am sick of the console wars. I am sick of fanboys, and yes I know, there is no way to stop what has become of GAMING. Gaming is in a sad, state. What happened to the days of the first Nintendo, and Sega Master Drive? There wasn't any REAL fanboyism at that point. Same with the Super Nintendo and Sega GEN, era. Was there fanboyism? Maybe a bit, more so about who was better, Mario or Sonic. I GREW UP in those times, I know what went on and I know what was a system, and what a game was, so I was happy. I did not require, anything, I did not require, having too bad mouth someone who owned a Super Nintendo because all I had was a Sega GEN.

I remember going to my friends house, who had a Super Nintendo, and playing FF3(6), and some other games, and he, was, at the time, my BEST friend. My one friend I would do everything with, every day we would be running around the park, playing catch, causing problems, or playing games. We were kids, we were young, but more importantly, we were friends, playing two different systems and co-existing. What is up now days, with one person buying a PS3 well, his other friends, own 360. So he gets shunned, called names? I have seen this happen, read about this happening, and it is stupid. So your going to throw away years of memories because someone bought a different piece of plastic, metal, and circuit boards? You are going to throw away someone, who is flesh and blood, like you, with the same memories, for something that has NO loyalty to you?

Why are fanboys so, dependent, on their status in the gaming world? Why do you care, if someone has something you don't. Wii, not the best graphics, but it's got some really fun games! I own one, I also own PS3, and I love it. Do I want a 360? Kind of, yes, but I don't truly require it at this moment since some games, and game types, are now coming to PS3 like RTS, and Bioshock. But, at the same time, I do not understand why people, on one side, have to say the other side have no games. It's like saying, when ever I turn on my Wii or PS3, I am not having fun. I am, a blast infact. You need to look past, the blurry lines, you need to understand a simple rule. Games are games, gamers are gamers. There are no hidden lines, no hidden areas. If we all just got along, started focusing on the prime fact that we are all gamers, then this experience would be swallowed a heck of a lot easier.

It's getting worse also, with every passing generation. What is it going to be like with PS4, and all the next systems? We already have people shunning others, beating others up, stabbing people for a certain game? What the hell has happened to us? What happened to the day where we would just get together as gamers, as a group of people. Sure, other things have debaters, people debate things about sports, or cars. But in sports, when someone has a favourite team, that's different. They are loyal to flesh, and blood. Somethings that happen arn't good, like, fights breaking out, but thats another story, that is seen in almost anything which equally has it's problems and should not take place, because it simply does not make sense.

What I am trying to say, in short, is that yes, this is rant, and yes this probably won't solve anything. Gaming, is heading down a dangerous path and I fear, that one day, I might just start acting like a fanboy also. Like some sort of disease, I almost feel like I can't run from it, and it's completely sick, and pointless. End, of discussion.
