I'm sorry but you are just plain wrong. Mechanical pencils are clearly better than pens. You make a mistake with a pen you have to make a mess and scribble it out, or even worse tippex. Mechanical pencils though, best of both worlds. Erasable and neat.
That was a horrible analogy and I should know, my analogies suck.
Let me try. It would be like comparing Cars vs Trucks. Now trucks you can go off road, you don't have to worry about floods as much, but they tend to burn a crap ton of gas and they don't fit in tight spaces.
Cars on the other hand are gas efficient and can fit pretty much anywhere you can stuff it. But it can't go off road.
SEE! I'm horrible!

Let me try this another way. They are both games, they both have followers. I can see how some people would consider MW3 players as dumb semi homo-erotic meat heads. But it takes incredible amount of reaction time and fast paced strategy. Yes I said strategy, one can not simply walk down the street like the incredible hulk and not expect to get picked off.
I can see some people thinking Skyrim players are fat, fantasy dorks, with anime pictures all over their walls. But Skyrim has an insane story and a level of character development that you wont find in a game like MW3. There is more complex strategy, but its slower, more relaxed.
So what if MW3 is just a slightly updated version of MW2. If all my friends were buying the new game well then hot damn I would make sure that I can still play with them. Who cares if it made a crap ton of money, good for them. MW3 just turned heads in the entertainment industry and thats a good thing for all of us. Skyrim, is from a series of games that have been around since DOS. Its has a very hardcore fanbase, so of course many of them are going to tear down other players who threaten their baby.
However, We are both gamers, we just prefer one genre to another a little more. We play them to have fun, end of story.
