Sony's press conference was uneventuful as all hell and NOTHING important was announced at all, so why is it a half a point away from Nintendo's which is being hailed as the best E3 press conference of all time. Oh GI with your Nintendo hate and your fanboyism. You make me laugh at you so.

Nothing important?

-PSN plus was announced

-Move was priced, given a launch date and new titles were shown for it.

-New games; Heroes, Twisted Metal were announced.

-GT5 was given a launch date.

-Portal 2 was announced for PS3.

-Bonus DLC/content announced for Mafia 2, Dead Space 2, Assassins Creed Brotherhood.

I don't really care how any publication scores a press conference, but looking at Sony's E3 conference from a gamers perspective i don't understand how you can say 'nothing' important was announced for it, when clearly, plenty was.

As for Nintendo's conference, hailed by who? the internet? this forum? another publication giving lettered scoring?

I really don't see already announced games as important, the biggest thing about Sony's conference was actually steamworks on PS3, as for PSN Plus it was already announced just no info about the service given, GT5 has had multiple launch dates announced.

I think most people are bothered that many things were already known about, gamers want new announcements, the few new game announcements I can think of are Heroes on the Move and a few other move titles, Twisted Metal and the rest were known about beforehand, it didn't help that Twisted Metal looked like ass being played either, one of the things about stage performance is start strong and finish strong and Sony started off with Glasses 3D tech and finished with Twisted Metal that was obviously an alpha or beta build so they might have done better to make a trailer.
