You blowing this waaay out of proportion just because MS is on the receiving end.

No, I simply dont like the arrogance.  Same reason i get annoyed with fanboys.  Ive stated multiple times i like sony games (A lot) but sony's hardcore fans annoy me.  Xbox's hardcore fans annoy me as well but from my experience it has always been Sony fans rallying the internet.  And the last thing i want to see is a company start to act like the childish fanwars we see here on the internet.

Now you can go search through my comments if you want.  I have plenty of good things to say about Sony(most recently Rine being the best game I saw at Gamescom) but here I will say they acted childish.  I did not per take in the E3 oh my god MSFT is horrible and Sony are amazing because what they said discussion because while i thought it was unprofessional it was also relevant.  MSFT was wrong and their policies was wrong (mainly talking about the 24h checkin that I stated myself that i disagreed with). 

Just because I make a comment every once and a while and say i dont like something or disagree with something doesn't mean im siding with a company every time they do something.

It's not arrogance.

Sony is saying they are better and giving reasons why. They want people to buy a PS4 instead of the Xbone. They are giving people a reason why to go with Sony. Its a legit thing to say at a public conference. Where gamers are the audience.

I really fail to see how this is arrogance. They are promoting the good decisions they made this year and outright saying they did better than the competition. I cant see why anyone would criticise this unless you have some sort of bias. It would be stupid of Sony to not use this, especially given the decisions they've made this year.

Also the fact that you distinguish between Xbox fanboys and Sony fanboys calling one side worse pretty much says it all. And you still havent really given a proper reason why what they said at gamescom is unprofessional or childish.

In case you missed what exactly Andrew House said:

"while others have shifted their message and changed their story, we were consistant in mainiting policies and a model that are in tune with consumers desires"

Please tell me how that is unprofessional and childish? It wasnt rude, it wasnt a lie, they wernt making unnecessary fun of MS etc.
