When I first came to Giant Bomb (the day it opened as a site), one of the choices I was presented with was my alignment. I now understand that this choice was largely a cosmetic, insubstantial carryover from Comic Vine, but I made my choice seriously - an attempt to reject the idea of fanboyism, I chose Neutral, even though I, personally, have now bought an Xbox and two Xbox 360s, but have not purchased a Sony product since the PS1 (I gained a PS2 by marriage, and plan on buying a PSP in two weeks).

I still hope that I can keep myself free of the debilitating mental illness of fanboyism. But I've realized that I cannot, in all honesty, call myself neutral. Not when, in my heart of hearts, I believe that there is one platform superior to all others. One platform that will always be superior to all others.

Be it user-generated content, physical network multiplayer, Internet multiplayer, digital distribution, first-person action, real-time strategy, casual gaming, social network gaming, or whatever may come along in the future... Any advance gaming consoles have ever made, the PC did it first, and did it better.
