I appreciate that even though you are a pretty hardcore Sony fan you can at least look at things far more objectively than your Sony brethren. But a few comments:
1. GitHub turned out to be real and people got banned in the spec thread because Sony fans threw tantrums, demanded people be banned and reported them any time anyone dared suggest it was real.
2. The case of Tommy Fisher is hilarious. Anyone with 2 brain cells should have be able to tell he was a fake and totally full of shit, but since he was saying what Sony fans wanted to hear (13.8tfs) they bought all his BS. I recall one of the clique bragging the day before the Cerny reveal bragging about 13.8 and calling Xbox fans clowns and losers until
@Mod of War put a stop to it. I have NO sympathy for Sony fans that let themselves get taken by that troll.
3. Another one of the Sony super fans went rabid on John from DF and drove him out because DF hadn't made a video stating PS5 was RDNA2 before Cerny even revealed the PS5
4. Another Sony super fan
@LED Guy? posted a faked photoshopped, previously debunked screen of @Berncastle supposedly from Xbox discord to create diversionary drama when that Twitter info from the PS5 graphic engineer said the PS5 was RDNA 1.5 or something (also ended up being true he said it) I think I even saw something about the person that revealed the info got severely harassed, death threats(?)
5. Not familiar with Brad Sams downplaying the SSD, but I'm WAY too familiar with Sony fans constantly
overplaying it. One guy created like 8 or 10 SSD threads all by himself.
Fanboys/girls from both sides are obnoxious (myself included), but too many Sony fans go WAY overboard when they feel their plastic box is threatened and they really do come across as the Info Wars fans of gaming.
