TGS has always been Sony dominated for the most part, so its kind of puzzling to see people act surprised about the fact or make threads about it when its already very well known. Nintendo largely couldn't compete with Sony during the era of the Gamecube so they opted to spare themselves the event. Despite the Wii being a runaway success they still seem to feel it not worth the effort to fight a P.R. battle on Sony's turf, a wise decision especially now that they're holding more of their information back longer while Sony continues to announce things further and further into the future to maintain hype for their struggling flagship, the PS3. Events like this are always fun to get excited about but I'm just afraid it could potentially be little more than another temporary spike in moral for PS3 owners like E3's brief moment of glory. Such events also cary with them a certain healthy need for pesimism as tragedies like Lair remind us just how shallow hype can be this generation. For PS3 owners in particular this generation has been a roller coaster ride with various events periodically getting their hopes up for the PS3's ascention to the top while ever changing theories as to how the PS3 will win and the Wii & 360 lose emerge. There's no doubt the PS3 will shine at this event, but will this be enough to sway the common consumer or will this event only serve to feed fans already commited to the PS3?
