Unigamesity has a different approach on fanboys (and generally speaking, fanboyism): they don't consider them harmful for the games industry. There are not many people who would agree to that point of view, but maybe they are right...

Fanboyism is and will always be a delicate matter: it’s the fanboys who get blamed when a game’s reputation is destroyed, they’re the ones who truly, madly, deeply hate the “others” (which, in our case, is either the PS3 or the Xbox 360) and will do their best to at least humiliate you if you fall under the sway of the “wrong religion”, but still they are the ones who spice up the industry and, thanks to their more hardcore nature, they could be considered the foundation of the industry. So, after all, are fanboys as bad as everybody considers them to be? Not really!
