A term used by PC elitists to cast blame away from the developer and the inherent nature of most capitalist societies onto the hapless console gamer.
That game interface is heavily consolized. I would much prefer to use all function keys instead of that streamlined, radial interface.

A flame war with fanboys of either Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft fighting amongst each other. They are often biased to supporting their system and their system only, not knowing the advantages of the other systems.

A console fanboy is a person who consistently claims that one video game console is better than the others, and insults anyone who plays one of the consoles he/she hates.
Ironically, anyone who calls someone else a fanboy is usually a fanboy themselves. An overwhelmingly common behavior in console fanboys is to call someone else a fanboy, and display fanboy behavior immediatly after (see example).
Unfortunatly, the term gets thrown around so much that few treat the word correctly now. Someone who says he prefers one console over another is immediatly called a fanboy. The most commonly forgotten fact is that fanoys are people who mindlessly trash another console and the people who play them for no reason, NOT people who are just expressing an opinion. Few actually take the time to tell the difference.

Example of the "Calling someone a fanboy and behaving like one right after" behavior:
Sane poster: PS3 and Wii are fun, but Xbox is my favorite.
Console fanboy: OMG us such a 360 fanboy!!! 360 fanboy alert! PS3 is better than both consoles, better graphics, better sound, better online, the other consoles are so shitty, it's unbelivable! PS3 is the ONLY good console, i say SWAT teams should execute anyone who plays anything else! God, stop being such a 360 fanboy!!!

Someone who plays on consoles but does not acknowledge the far superiority of PC gaming, and will not accept valid facts from PC gamers on why PC is better.
KEEP IN MIND: Someone can like console gaming and prefer it more than PC gaming but still knows the superiority of PC gaming. That makes them a console player not a console peasent.

CONSOLE PEASENT: PC sucks console is better than PC in every way.
PC gamer: *States facts on why PC is better*
CONSOLE PEASENT: FUCK YOU U CUNT THE HUMAN EYE CAN'T SEE PAST 1 FPS.
PC gamer: Stop being such a Console Peasant and grow some balls.

An uninformed, unenlightened console "gamer" who does not acknowledge the supreme power and affordability of a PC over a console. These heathens not only live in denial, claiming their consoles have hardware superior to a PC, but also shun the ever shining light of lord and savior Gaben. Gaben is love and Gaben is life. Praise his eternal soul, and let him enlighten console peasants around the world.
In the wild, console peasants can be found talking in slanderous ways of the PC and PC gamers, claiming their consoles are more powerful than a PC, and also commonly claiming the human eye can only perceive 30 FPS and not the 60 enjoyed commonly by PC gamers.
The best way to enlighten a peasant is to first tell them of the cheaper price of video games for PC, which can be found on Steam at a fraction of the price paid by console gamers. Then, proceed to tell then about building a PC, tell them of how simple the process is, and how even for the price of a console they can build a superior PC. It is important to direct them then to /r/buildapc on Reddit.
Finally, enlighten them by sending them to /r/PCMasterrace on reddit. From then on they will receive the blessings of Gaben and become a member of the PCMasterrace.
Praise Gaben, he is love and he is life.

"I recently converted to the PCMasterrace after getting tired of hearing "I fuked ur mom" from console peasants on Xbox Live."
"Go forth and enlighten thy console peasants with the holy light of Gaben"
"The only good peasant is a converted peasant."

A person who thinks consoles are superior and are trying to compare its hardware and graphics of a PC. They're commonly are ignorant and refuse to accept any valid points from the opposite side. They also lack hardware knowledge and assume there console is the best in price,exclusives, and hardware.
Console Peasant 1: XBOX IS BETTER THEY HAVE BETTER GRAPHICS GAMES AND GAMES ARE FOR XBOX!
Console Peasant 2: PS4 HAS 1 TERAFLOPS OF GDDR7 RAM WHICH MAKES THAT GRAPHICS AT 4K AND 120 FPS!!!
Somebody who plays PC: Neither of you are correct here (link to a hardware forum or pricing from various platforms)
Console Peasants: STFU FAG! YAH 40 YEAR OLD VIRGINS I F*** UR MOM! GO PLAY ON YOUR $5000 PC'S AND UPGRADE EVERY SINGLE GAME! GAMEPLAY OVER GRAPHICS
