Where did i said sony will win because the last guardian? i said if sony show the last guardian , project beast and uncharted 4 gameplay plus all the third party will be hard for someone to win IMO and this is my fucking opinion and i dont care if it upsets you or not, and i dont care about fucking sales i care about the amount of games I will buy cause they are great. Sales dont mather about who wins or loses E3.

You seem very angry? nah

Essentially we agree with one another.  Your opinion about game line ups will lead you to the belief that Sony's E3 offers you the most.

YES !!!

Of course, sales are the very essence of what E3 is.  The big three and the major publishers dont spend millions of dollars on the conference every year so we can all have warm fuzzy feelings and sign coombiaya

i dont have money invested in those companys so i could care less about sales, i just want them to show me games that interest me and that i will buy , that is why i said in my first post that sony can fuck it up this year if they dont show some juicy stuff.

Thats good to hear, the tone of your post made you sound aggravated, sorry if that is not the case.

If you're truly detached from the sales debate, thats fantastic.  Ultimately sales matter to an extent because they influence the type of games that are likely to come to a console (witness Wii U's third party line up).

It depends what you mean by 'Win E3'. If you mean who will have the best games regardless of sales potential then it will be entirely subjective and in the vast majority of cases confirmation bias will ensure that everyone who expected/wanted their preferred company to win, will believe they won. This is especially true where niche titles such as the Last Guardian could be shown, leading fans of such games feeling as though a certain company 'won' E3.

If you mean who will best leverage 'E3' as an opportunity to promote future console sales, this is almost certainly going to be Microsoft of Nintendo. Quite simple, this is because Sony is currently outselling those two companies, often combined, despite an almost complete lack of high-budget, high visibility AAA content. In other words, the only place Sony has to go at this E3 is down. Whereas even a viable attempt at levelling the playing field would represent an E3 'won' for Microsoft or Nintendo.

If you mean on these forums? It will go by userbase - in line with the aforementioned confirmation bias. Sony > Nintendo > Microsoft - irrespective of what is actually shown.

This is a good breakdown.
