New 360 owner. Name some hardcore fanboy sites please

Depends.

What exactly are you wanting?

* the site heavy loaded with console owners with extensive experience of customizing bleeding edge gaming PCs, who 2 years ago, could teach you how to open the 360 and mod your own power brick, motherboard, and heat sink to avoid the fires and RROD, and/or how to mod another DVD to replace your faulty 360 DVD drive. (Probably over the head of 98% of all 360 owners, but invaluable info for those who can wipe their own noses.)

* the sites heavy loaded with console owners of all creeds and colors, who can recommend TVs, cables, accessories to fully complement your gaming experience.

* the sites heavy loaded with non-technical subscribers who can only tell you how their game scores were uber l33t.

* the sites heavy censored by the license holder (aka Microsoft) to prevent any bad press (and also any workarounds) from ever staying posted in their forums.

I like anandtech, google, and others for the search starting points to technical expertise, gamespot for game reviews, gamefaq for game hints, and fatwallet for the best shopping deals. I try to avoid the true fanboy sites, since little useful info is revealled there, except for which console's fanboys have the highest ever pee line marker on the back wall.

It is fanboy because 360 is winning in a poll? Doesn't that just mirror sales reality?

As to whether it mirror's sales is debatable since there are so many different #s floating. That can be an endless debate that has been done numerous times. As far as fanboy a quick perusal of threads would suggest a strong sony animosity here.

You're talking about a bunch of people who almost certainly owned a PS2 before they had an Xbox 360.
 
another vote for 360fanboy.

it's nice to visit a website without having to see arguments about ps3 vs 360, and etc. plus they get you all the info and try to be entertaining. 😀

Oh wow, I just can't believe that. I'm sure that animosity just came out of nowhere. No way did Sony do anything to spur that on. I mean, why wouldn't you love a company that tries to push DRM down your throat every chance they get, and even go so far as to install trojans on their consumer's PCs? Price fixing? Hey it's all good. Going on a suing rampage over music downloads? Hey, no problem, we still love you Sony. I mean I can't figure out for the life of me why anyone would hate Sony. That's just crazy talk. :roll:
