I'll try to keep this brief.
First it rarely bothers me if for no other reason than so many things don't have a quality "source" to work with. Spiderman is a great example. Are we talking the long running comic, the one that's been running so long that even the creators decided they needed to reboot it and call it Ultimate because you're kinda asking a lot of new fans to sit through decades of comics.
People have brought up Resident Evil. Have any of you actually tried to sit down and play a game from a genre your not particularly good at? Resident evil is up to six games proper, and some pretty mandatory side games like Nemesis (Go look it up, 3 is the side game, Veronica is the actual game in the story. It's a whole legal thing that happened with Sega and Sony) that's A LOT to ask of someone to stumble through if they aren't already good at something.
Pokemon pisses me off btw. I'm a fan of the series but I have a problem with a game that's tag line is "Gotta Catch em All" and it's literally impossible to catch them all. To the point that you have to attend their events to get the legends and forget your life if your either busy with work or are a kid and can't get anybody to drive you to the damned thing.
Back on subject, is Christopher Nolan's Batman not legit? Does someone who likes those three movies and knows everything about them LESS of a fan than someone who reads the comics or was introduced to the character through the Animated Series? According to the original poster yes, they are less of a fan. I disagree, they simply have a different entry point. Frankly we should all be friends since we love the same thing.
That said, I think the BIGGER problem we have as a whole is let me guess. Most of the people with this "attitude" are between say twenty five and forty. We all remember when these things were ours. We remember a world where the idea of a Football game coming out every year was absurd. Where you had to trek out to your comic store to find out about the X-men, Spawn and Vampirella and now these punk ass kids who did nothing to "earn" the knowledge dare speak the name Gannondorf? They think they know something about something while they think Peter Parker was bitten by a genetically altered spider when any idiot knows it was a radioactive spider? These Narutards who don't realize their precious series rips everything off of a better series about an alien sent to earth from a dying planet who's just super? Basically we're that old guy shouting for kids to get off our damn lawn. They really aren't hurting anything most of the time but it's more that they really annoy us than anything they're doing wrong.
PS: Wesker didn't die. This is Capcom ladies and gents. The company that brought us Dr. Wily, Sigma and M.Bison. Wesker will show up in the next game mildly annoyed that his glasses melted.
