I like console wars because:
Let's face the facts: console wars are the spice of gaming life. And so, God bless you, console warriors, you beautiful bastards.
- It's fun to watch to watch all the prissy little babies - you know, the ones who call for a more mature discourse from the gaming community - pretend they don't have their own bias.
- It's also fun to watch these allegedly high-minded individuals pretend that companies that produce consoles aren't engaged in a war against each other.
- Do these same morons watch a game of football and try to convince fans from both sides that "BOTH TEAMS ARE TRYING VERY HARD!"
- It's also fun to watch these allegedly high-minded individuals pretend that companies that produce consoles aren't engaged in a war against each other.
- It's equally as fun to watch a bunch of blowhards, with seemingly nothing better to do with their time on this planet, perform mental gymnastics as they try to convince others (but mostly themselves) that things like teraflops or SSD bandwidth don't matter.
- Personally speaking, I can't get enough of watching people with zero technical expertise or game development chops hurl performance metrics or technical specifications at each other in defense of their plastic box of choice.
- The forum rivalries that console wars create are also incredibly entertaining.
- Hurt feelings.
- Feuds that span multiple threads, leading to drive bys and blatant shitposting.
- Console warriors forget that the PC is king...has been and always will be, which makes the fight for distant second that much funnier.
- The various memes and GIFs, of course.
