So, I was at funcoland the other day perusing the meager selection of DC games when a sony fanboy walks into the store. how did i know he was a sony fanboy? well....

he strikes up a conversation about video gaming with the cashier tooting about his brand spanking PS2 console he bought last month. i really didn't mind, 'cuz i hear that type of stuff all the time. but then he starts talking about my beloved dreamcast...

i'm standing at the DC game shelf about 5 feet away while he flames Sega and the DC. Saying things to the effect of, "I feel sorry for dreamcast owners," or "they didn't stand a chance against Sony," "DC graphics blow...", bla, bla, etc, etc... (of course, i've left out the profane words and what not)

clearly, this guy was deaf to the sound of tension. i wouldn't say it made me angry necessarily.... it provoked such a reaction that i actually felt like chucking a copy of soul fighter at him because that was the crappiest game i could find on the shelf (far be it from me to waste a quality game even in retaliation against the mildly ignorant). but that isn't the end of it...

I selected a choice DC game and proceeded to register as if I'd heard nothing. that's when i saw the PS2 game he was buying: Crazy Taxi!!!

is there no end to hypocrisy in the world!?

(in case you didn't notice, i'm not particularly fond of sony). so sue me...

same thing happened to me. I was standing in an EB and was just stocking up on all the dc clearnece items. I had aboutr 13 in my arms, not going for more than 240 at most (which is pretty good) and then someguy acutally WEARING playstation shirt (that cool son of a bitch ) starts talking to the clerk about me! He was saying shit like

"woah look at that guy, he must still play his little DREEEEEEAAAAAAAAAMMMMMM CAAAAASSSSSSSSSTTTTTT. HAHAHA... too bad he doesn't have a ps2" (which i do)

then the clerk comes to my rescue saying a bunch of stuff about how the ps2 sucks and how the dreamcast is better. You could see the look of disgust in the guys face... it was great.

I come across that crap all of the time, sony has done a great job of brainwashing the ignorant.. i am proving people i know wrong day in and day out about their beloved ps2, but they wont believe it..

Its like when you tell someone their spouse is cheating on them, but they wont accept it, people take thei ps2 to be their colsest friend,.. why? probably cause they dont want their intelligence insulted when you tell them they bought a $500 peice of horses ass..

haha ps i own a ps2 but only paid $50, take that sony!! VIVA LA SEGA

Face it guys, Your opinions on Sony are no better than their opinions of the Dreamcast.

Since it bothers you so much when they insult DC, why do you do it with the PS2??

It's the same behavior....
