Microsoft and its Xbox One X game console have generated the most conversations at the game industry’s biggest trade show in the U.S.

The buzz around the new system has propelled Microsoft into the number one spot with 26.04 percent of online mentions around E3, edging out the excitement around Nintendo’s big announcements (22.99 percent). Here are the top 5 most discussed video game companies (and attached please find a graphic with the full list):

– Nintendo (22.99 percent)
– EA (21.85 percent)

Sony didn’t drive nearly as much buzz as the top five, with a share of voice of only 6.17 percent. The maker of the PlayStation 4 game console has sold more than 60 million PS4s, but it came in seventh with a social reputation score of 54.88.

Sony’s buzz came from the following topics:
