We're forgetting the definition of fanboys here.

They only spawn inside the hearts of people at the beginning of generations. Of course everything seems more "stable" right now - because there's only one next-gen console out so far. If I remember correctly, the quarrel between the Dreamcast buyers and the PS2 buyers far outweighed the quarrel between Dreamcast buyers and people who owned N64 or Playstation.

One of the main fanboy spawning culprits was Super Smash Brothers Melee. It turned any casual player who owned a Nintendo in the past into this super "know-it-all" nerd who, if he played for a while, would know the main history of Nintendo, cover-to-cover.

But the real annoying ones are the ones who are the ones who try to justify their purchase because they feel insecure. Xbox 360 owners don't have anything to feel insecure about right now, but you bet **** is going to start flying once the PS3 and Revolution come out.
