I thought the Sony and Microsoft conferences were just as good as eachother, and were better than Nintendo's. Actually, I'm not even sure, I don't remember the Nintendo conference.


Microsoft conferences have never been equal to Sony in consistency. Their conferences are heavily third party multiplats with either a staggeringly low amount of exclusives or too many casual games.  Sony makes too many exclusives so they never break their level of expectation. Nintendo needs to balance their games between the titles for people who have grown up with them (25+ years) or the people and the newcomers. When it comes to expecting internal games Microsoft is the one to expect to be the weakest. Microsoft's strongest E3 was in 2008 when they took Tekken and Final Fantasy  exclusivity from Sony.

I'm very interested in multiplatform games though, I like how there were many playable demos shown at E3. Looking back, I did think SONY's conference was better, but it's far from their best. I still remember watching E3 for the first time in 2009, I thought SONY's conference was amazing.


Sony's conferences don't blow me away but they keep me satisfied and I am always interested to see the growth of the characters that represent Sony. Nintendos 2010 conference blew me away. Microsoft really needs to have a first party heavy show thats balanced between the core and casual which has never, ever happened. Everyone gets multiplats so leave those to the third parties. E3 is trying to rally the media and gamers to your cause, so show them what you've got.
