!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

People still make brand loyalty a part of their personality?

Like, I haven't seen anyone doing what you're complaining about in years, you're just doing what you're complaining about...

No one else is doing it anymore

The console wars have ended, brother. You don't have to wear the uniform anymore.

This is the console wars equivalent of that Japanese soldier who was the last guy to surrender from WWII in the 1970s

Rabid obsession over console brands could also stay in 2009.

Grow up dude, we have more important wars to focus on than your fuckass brand loyalty. No one gives a flying fuck if you prefer PlayStation or Xbox. So stop trying to alienate communities when this is the most important time for people to come together and fight for a better world.

The irony of a console owner calling anything casual

I miss when we got cool new tech

There were definitely Sony fanboys, but I don't think any of these statements were ever massively popular. I also highly doubt it was the same people saying both sides of the argument.
