Your 15 minutes of fame, fanboy style!
So, PS3 Fanboy got an email earlier today regarding the Capcom announcement of... well... you know. Devil May Cry 4 going to other platforms... or whatever. The title of the e-mail was something like "Fanboy Damage Control Time" and it intrigued us enough to give it the old clickerooney. We got a link to a website called Fan Boys Must Die -- on it was a large thread of the "favorite" comments left behind by people on multiple websites. PS3 Fanboy is the second one listed! How nice!This is your time to shine, intrepid readers! In fact, if your quote was chosen, you've got to be pretty excited. You left an impact! Also of note is the overwhelming mockery taking place on Joystiq, Major Nelson, and the moderate competence displayed on the official PlayStation forums (spelling aside... no one on the internet can spell anymore). Damage control, spin control, whatever you want to call it, this is an interesting read just to see how extremely some people react.
[Thanks, Robert!]

I'm being quoted! Yay!!
By the way, the owner of that site is nothing better than the fanboys. Fanboys have a life: their particular videogame brand. Does this guy have a life? Yeah, checking what other people do with their lives. If that means having a life, that is.

Yeah. Humanity as a collective is stupid. A lot. In the face. We knew this.
I'm surprised it's that big of a deal really. MGS4 sharing to the 360 wouldn't even surprise me. Final Fantasy sharing to 360 would surprise me. Boy, would I love to be surprised.
Sony still has their published games, such as God of War, Shadow of the Colossus, and all the other stuff people prattle on about. Sony is fine...DMC should have never been an exclusive anyway.
The PS3 gets Ninja Gaiden finally, which is more of a blow in my opinion.

bootsielon: yeah, but I'm pretty sure you were being looked down upon.

Hey, I'm there as well for a joystiq post. Hurrah?

Aragorn:
Do you need a new sarcasm detector, did you simply fail to use yours, or did you not come with one to begin with?

Does any one else think it's sad that this guy was surprised that he found fanboy comments at PS3FANBOY.

If you want to complain to Capcom, go here http://shop.capcom.com/store/capcomus/Content/pbPage.CapcomSupport and click on Ask a Question. I wrote to them and they are aware of the huge backlash against them right now and are looking to reconsider. So if you want to voice your opinion, go for it!
