One of the greatest comedians of all time who started out as a folk singer, singing funny songs on stage. Once he became known as a comedian his singing became less and less on stage. Movies include Boondock Saints and The Big One. I'd put him right up there with George Carlin.

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!!!

Get the Consolitis mug.A term that unifies “casualization” (from casual), with “consoles”. While in videogames “casualization” means a tendency to make things less complex and accessible to the masses, “consolization” means the “casualization” applied to games that weren’t casual before. It applies to all kind of games who become less complex because of the necessity of convert mouse to pad controls, lower on memory or graphics requeriments, or downgrade any kind of management (losses the x,y axis, big menus, scrolling inventories, auto aim, auto stats, lack of editor or mod support, etc).
Many games have lost plenty of quality due to their consolization, their predecessors were richer and deeper in each aspect but these multiplatform versions were designed limited by inferior platforms...

Get the Consolization mug.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.
