MTV & NY Comic Con looking for 'true fanboy,' could be you

by Majed Athab { Nov 7th 2008 at 5:15PM }

We know Sony PlayStation fanboys/fangirls are the most hardcore followers out of all the console factions. So, when we caught whiff that MTV is looking for a real-life, honest-to-God, genuine, pure-bred "fanboy," well we thought that someone in the crowd of our readers could be -- dare we say it -- that ultimate fanboy (or girl) they're looking for.

The New York Comic Con 2009 is working closely with MTV to find that special someone to do a segment for the network's True Life television documentary series. Those of you looking at joining the casting call must be aged 16-28 and identify with: cosplaying, waiting at midnight launches, getting gaming-related tattoos and/or others. Check out the sign-up sheet here for more details.

I'm pretty sure you left a comment on the 360 forum saying that you used to be a "Playstation Fanboy, but not anymore"

I can't see them painting fanboys in a good light. This can only end in tears.
