I think it's close, if it was a competition.

Sony had footage of GoW3 and Uncharted 2. They announced Rachet.

Nintendo announced new Zelda, new Final Fantasy stuff for Wiiware AND VC, made the jump to 4.0 (solving the storage problem), and talked about more wiiware and DSiware games.

Yeah, Nintendo won.

 

Ratchet was announced at the end of Quest for Booty. Just didn't have a subtitle. Sony announced nothing.

 

 alright then Nintendo won even more.



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."

it was clearly Nintendo that won, Zelda is much bigger than Ratchet, and they've shown a lot more than 2 videos....



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

because the fanboys said so.

 




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

It's pretty cool, isn't it? New ratchet + gameplay vids for GoWIII and Uncharted 2 + new engine better on PS3 than 360 = sony won this GDC!

 

Congratz sony, next one: E3 2009!

 

 Well, Sony did show/announce more than MS. There's no denying that. You forgot to mention NGS2, more inFamous news, and the new Katamari Tribute. Not really what this show's about, but still, a nice showing for PS3.

@ ghost4life: Acknowledged by fans? Heck, even MS denied the problem until very late. Don't glorify one type of fanboy while bashing the other one. Both are equally evil. Also very subtle that the RRoD was acknowledged by fans (apparently, no fanboys there), but that you compare them to fanboys. Yes, very fair comparison.

 

Of course MS denied it. They would be the last recognising it.

 

As for gloryfying fanboys. X360 fans neve claimed their choice was TEH choice due to such huge falsedom as :

 

22 Teraflops or raw processing power that would favor research against Cancer

A Six-Axes and a Blu-Ray that were going to revolutionize gaming as we know

 

X360 fans were the most realistic out there.

RRoD sucks / XboxLive is expensive / the d-pad sucks / etc.

 

 

 

I am trying to respond to ur BS, but after checking reality i gave up....

Instead i'll try something irrelevant like : "Convincing u to play MGS 4 is an isult to Kojima him self"

 

There, corrected.

 

You asked what blue-ray had to offer in gaming and i mention MGS4 but i forgot that u probably don't consider it a game

and u hate it, so u hating Sony is a good thing because that means there as bad as MGS

 

Now plz do us all a favor and stay away from sony discution (which u suposibly hate, but for some strange reason always comingback to)

hmmm. I'm glad you think that and are happy.

Personally, I'm much happier with Nintendo's announcement about Zelda, and the fact that Professor Layton (2nd game) is coming to the DS in the west.

honestly I didn't even pay attention to what was said about Microsoft products, but then again, this is GDC, not E3 or other games conventions where it is about the games.

So I guess Level 5 won GDC by mentioning there are 6 Professor Layton games, and 2nd is being translated

Hahaha, yeah, because every sony fanboy states that the PS3 will revolutionize gaming and that they will aid cancer research (last part seems true with the folding-thing which DOES help however small the contribution might be).

And yeah, every MS fan is as rational to state things like the ones you quoted. If you believe that, you're as delusional as the Sony fanboys you are trying to discredit (and apparently every Sony fan or fanboy is the same to you).

Hey sony and nintendo had a great showing, even if nintendo won.... I think the clear loser of that event was MS... for not showing up. (if they did show up, I missed it)

1) Never did I ask that

2) Never did I hate Sony

3) Sony fans need some correction from time to time (ex : you)



God i hate fanboys, almost as much as they hate facts
