Emn1ty Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I don't think there is anything wrong with him preferring the PS3 or liking Sony products and promoting them. Just don't read the articles he posts if they bother you so much. In all honesty, it is a disservice to the community to post biased or inaccurate articles. No information is better than bad information. What I love is that people insist on pointing out that Audioboxer is the only one that does it, because he isn't, there are a bunch of people on here that like to only post Good news for the console of preference and bad news for the rest, if you don't like it, ignore it, but don't go round pointing the finger at only certain people when there are far more. In the end it doesn't really matter what AB posts, these are game consoles, they will do fine regardless of some random guy on a forum says or posts mocking it or otherwise. Again, the good thing about Audio is he posts EVERYTHING related to the PS3. He is a great news source in that sense. This also makes it hard for other posters to get news up, which is why I have only seen a few posts by Ironman and others that are pro-PS3 because by the time they get around to it Audio has already gotten it running. But when you look at anything that strays from the Sony section or a lot of things within that section itself Audio does have a definite lean towards demeaning the 360. I recall a topic that bashed the Kinect purple boxes that he posted in the 360 section. It was an utterly pointless thread where all he did was post an image of them and call them fugly. Anyone who doesn't notice this is choosing not to acknowledge it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedon Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 In all honesty, it is a disservice to the community to post biased or inaccurate articles. No information is better than bad information So where did AB post bad information or biased posts in this thread? He merely linked to a news article with survey results for online connectivity. Did he post the article and then say "ha ha, the PS3 is better because it has more online, Xbox 360 sucks, my post is biased". Forums are for discussion. I think he is doing the community a service by supplying this information. I didn't know that the online audience this big, and that separated between the two. So, unless you can prove the article is inaccurate or biased, I fail to see the point you are making. Now, does that mean I don't think he is biased? (he surely is). Do I think he has an agenda when he does post some negative comments against the Xbox, especially in threads where he has no intent to get the product? (he surely is). But his new threads are usually informative and giving us information we were not aware of. I posted an article in the Xbox section today stating the Xbox is doing well in the UK. It's info. Had I said "oh the PS3 sucks donkey in the UK" proceeding my thread, then I can see that as inflammatory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakey Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 why or how is posting something that someone else posted, as a study, some how trolling or being biased to another product you love? Some people have way to much loyalty to a product and need to step back a little maybe, and think just why they worship something so much lol. Loving the replies in this thread though, keepem coming guys, great emotion. ;) If this is true or false, what bad or good does it do anything or anyone? None. So just take it for what it says. Don't go making it into some demon out to destroy that which you love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, unless you can prove the article is inaccurate or biased, I fail to see the point you are making. I never said this was such a thread. I'm just pointing out that posting information in and of itself is not servicing the community, especially if you know it isn't helpful information and will only create tension. Now, does that mean I don't think he is biased? (he surely is). Do I think he has an agenda when he does post some negative comments against the Xbox, especially in threads where he has no intent to get the product? (he surely is).

Had I said "oh the PS3 sucks donkey in the UK" proceeding my thread, then I can see that as inflammatory. As I said further along in my post, he is a good source of news. Sorry if you guys have misinterpreted my post but please read the entire thing before jumping to conclusions. My post was more in line with the discussion of Audio's intentions rather than specifically the topic. Which I will admit, is off topic. I just felt I would add my two cents thats all.

soniqstylz Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 In this comparison they might as well included connected blu-ray players as a console as well. since a lot of the connected PS3's act merely as a BD player, and need to be connected for BD live and updates for the still not finished BD format. You don't need to register a PSN account to access the internet for things like web surfing and BD-Live updates. In fact, even if you have an account, you can still access the internet for things like that even if the PSN is down for some reason. However, it may be skewed by the fact that people can have many accounts on the same machine, often one for US, one for Europe, and one for Japan, for access to the different PSN stores.

Imagine how quiet this thread would be if you just let it go and didn't respond, didn't feed the trolling, didn't troll back, just quietly walked away. imagine then that the GH was quiet and peaceful without bickering. then maybe you could call yourself the savior of the GH... again...
