As far as new announcements of exclusives, I think Nintendo clearly won. A lot of MS's announcements were PC/360 games which are not exclusives, and Sony managed to only show one new exclusive for 2010, and none for 2009. In terms of unexpected exclusives, Microsoft showed Crackdown 2 and Halo Reach, two first-party shooters...

Sony's problem was that their biggest announcements were all leaked or obvious.

I have to say, neither Crackdown 2 or Halo Reach were surprises at all

As for Sony's new games, were Mod Nation Racers or FF XIV predicatable? I know the Last Guardian and Agent were (though nice to have it finally announced), but there was a rumour about SMG 2 before the conference, though I don't know about rumours of Metroid Prime or Super Mario Brothers

True, Mod Nation Racers was not predictable, but frankly it's a Mario Kart clone which doesn't give much points to Sony... I certainly didn't see anyone excited about it at the Sony E3 thread.

FF XIV was not predictable so it definitely counts, that's what I meant by "one new exclusive for 2010". And again, I didn't see much excitement for it after the word "Online" popped up.

Did Sony or Microsoft have any newly announced exclusive that got people as excited as Nintendo's announcements? It didn't seem to me that they did...
