For example, if somebody is defending their gaming platform, then the other person will say, "Oh, that's not a good feature."
This really comes across as arrogant. It's as if they're saying, "I'm not interested in that feature therefore it doesn't count. The platform [I]sucks[/I]"
And you're just like, "..."
I'm thinking to myself, "How on earth does that person's opinion invalidate a perfectly good feature!?"
For example, somebody will say something like, "I'm getting the Xbox One because it has a Kinect 2! ^_^"
And somebody else will say, "PS4 master race."
And he will be like, "How so?"
Then he will reply, "Because no stupid forced Kinect 2"
"But if they force it, it will make the peripheral have actual meaning and developers will make better games for it!"
Then they will say, "Oh but I don't want the Kinect 2! Therefore nobody else should like the Xbox One either! The Xbox One sucks!"
You're just like, "So, because you don't like the Kinect 2... The Xbox One sucks?"
Then they will say, "Yeah! F.uck what other people want! Only [I]I[/I] matter."
Then the other person is like, ";__;"
Has anybody else ever experienced this phenomenon? It's like every time I say something good and constructive about either the Xbox One or PS4 somebody else will just come along and say, "That important point you made there doesn't count because I don't like it and I'm the only person in the world who matters."
It's just really strange... They will say the console sucks over one feature that they personally don't agree on like the Xbox One's ability to watch live TV. That's awesome! But they don't need to do that, so therefore the Xbox One sucks for putting in something that other people like! Why? Because f.uck those other people! The Xbox One should only have stuff [I]I[/I] like goddamn it! F.uck their other audiences only I matter! I'm then thinking to myself... Oh really? Well aren't they just a spoilt pretentious brat?
Does anybody see this kind of thing happen all the time or is it just me?
Oh I just realised how long this is...
[b][u]TL;DR:[/b][/u] Does anybody else often see people dismiss important features on the Xbox One or PS4 as a, "Stupid gimmick" just to render the point useless and thus claim their console superior as if they're the only person on the planet that matters?

People say the exact same thing about the touch pad. The difference is touch pads have proven they can be good for guestures and navigation (laptops anyone?) The current kinect is shit, so people assume the next kinect will be shit. However we all have to wait and see. But OT, I don't like kinect. If I have a cold and sneeze why should I be punished for that in game? If family members are in the house yelling, why should that effect my gaming? And just because its included wont mean devs will use it. Sure many might, but if they don't like it they won't use it.
