First don't compare PS3 and 360 to Xbox One and PS4. Development  for cell was the issue. Now both are x86. It's apples and oranges. Actually apples and... speed boats or some shit like that. 

And you are determined to defend them. And you didn't correct shit btw

You could have liked everything at the reveal. But to say it wasn't geared toward the casuals is insane. I understand why Microsoft is doing it. The casuals offer them more money to be made. They want Wii numbers, not 360 numbers. Smart business

The problem with the reveal is that the type of gamer who tunes into a reveal like that is core gamers. The same people who look a couple times a week for info on a new console 6 months before it even releases. And they felt slapped in the face after the reveal.

Your looking at this as my opinion vs your opinion. You need to look at it as your opinion vs everyone elses. Go look on twitter or facebook. Go look on youtube. Go look at forums such as this. Sites like kotaku and see what the journalists are saying and the comments that readers leave. I'm sure it's just Sony fanboys though 

And yes, if Microsoft comes thru at E3 it can make all this mean nothing. But we are living in the here and now. And people feel like Microsoft abandoned the core gamer. 

If you want to believe that the reveal and everything in it was for the core gamer, then go ahead. After that I can sell you a bridge to no where if you'd like

I did correct you. You offered no rebuttal to this particular comment at all in your reply, you just pretended it wasn't there.
Madden is 1 game. EA showed 4, then there was Forza and Quantum Break. Ok. 2 casual games in CoD and Madden = whole reveal catered for the casuals.
Good to know.

First don't compare PS3 and 360 to Xbox One and PS4.

Why? The thing people do when looking forward is look to the past... How do you think people come up with estimates and predictions? You have to use the data that is available to you at the time, of course unless you have a time machine I could borrow?

If you want to believe that the reveal and everything in it was for the core gamer, then go ahead.

I don't think their reveal was either "core" nor "casual". It was a console reveal... THAT'S IT!! They showed some casual things like CoD and Madden but other games shown in Forza and Quantum Break were not. I'm still not sure why you're trying to label it... MS want to show games at E3... You know, the yearly show primarily about video games... This discussion is going nowhere. We've already argued this point and I even gave you CoD and Madden being casual, you on the other hand refuse to even consider my opinion and are being closed minded about this. 2 games are casual, 2 games were not nor are sports or TV. Here, 2-2=0. If anything they both cancel each other out... Jeez...

And yes, if Microsoft comes thru at E3 it can make all this mean nothing. But we are living in the here and now. And people feel like Microsoft abandoned the core gamer.

"People" are idiots. "People" should know that MS hosted the CONSOLE REVEAL at their Redmond campus, not E3, not a games reveal a CONSOLE REVEAL! E3 was only about 3 weeks after the CONSOLE REVEAL, so why would they show games and ruin the surprise?  It's "good business".

Ok cool

A simple google search will lead you to the answer why comparing development for the Ps3 and 360 is apples and oranges to the Xbox One and PS4. 

As stated on another thread, I ain't doing this shit no more. Not just with you, but anyone. If you want to buy the Xbox One, PS4, or both that's up to you. And I hope you will be happy with that decision and have no regrets. But this, not just between you and me but the whole site in general is petty imo

That's pretty much it
