Fanboy logic?

[megjake]

I don't understand their logic sometimes because they think there platform is superior and sales are a big part of there arguements(usually)so if they used common sense wouldn't they be inviting about there platform and not just constantly throw trash at each other?

[megjake]

Just realised this is gonna start a massive arguement.

They dont have logic, they latch on to whatever they could afford to get/whatever made them happy/what they have nostalgia for and they try to use logical sounding arguments to justify their position when they dont care about any of that, they just wanna sway more people to their platform of choice of try to find justification on their choice of that platform.

Thank goodness for being platform agnostic.

Thanks for a genuine answer. I was expecting someone to come here and say "cause there to dumb to buy a pc" or something like that

"I am right, therefore fuck you."

 

Nutshell ^

[RevoltTrain]

It's because usually that's what they grew up with, and don't want to admit that what they grew up with isn't the solve-all

[Glenwing]

If you're logically justified then you're not actually a fanboy. So by definition fanboys don't have valid logic.

Anyone who says that about any platform is nothing more then closeminded and they have no place in any discussion on that matter.

 

I mean I joke to my console friends about how their platform is "inferior"

 

Buutttttttt I have an xbox one. Do I use it as much as my pc? No..but it doesn't sit here collecting dust either. Id use it more if my wheel worked on it (getting that sorted next year though)

All platforms have their merits, few gaming platforms are truly useless. (I would say there was a few, esp in the early days of gaming)

Even Total Biscuit has an xbox one, wii u and ps4.

LMAO!

This site is full of that mentality I find. Just saying...  :lol:

This. It summarizes it very well

Hence my member thingy... there's a guy on here that was shitting on my custom loop to cool my overclock because I didn't buy an i5 and a hyper 212... I'm doing it for E Peen apparently...  :huh:

"Argument acceptance: OFF"

Um... What? Please, you can't be serious. Link me that thread!

 

I really wanted to play The Last of Us and I bought a PS3 just for that, launched the game and though- damn, that looks ugly and the frame rate is around 40FPS. After 30 minutes I forgot abut the graphics and FPS and enjoyed the game as it was. The best game I have every played was on a platform that I don't particularly like.

Demon Souls on PS3 and Infamous 2 - PS3 is king. Fuck the rest!

[App4that]

So many grammatical errors.

[GoldSrc]

I wouldn't call it logic, maybe cognitive dissonance.

I wont argue that.

You couldn't because it's true.

It's pretty well known this forum has a huge Nvidia bias.

We shouldn't get into that though.

Its ridiculous. Same thing goes for Intel bias. They think Zen won't be able to deliver on its 40% IPC improvement despite the fact that the changes they're gonna be implementing will most certainly boost performance.

google the term "backwards rationalization"
