I think both Sony and MS need great showing at E3 .MS because although it is ahead theres very little interest towards it in Asia and Europe and the interest in the NA market is slowly decreasing month after month .It only has managed to grab the FPS-loving hardcore crew and almost exhausted that demographic group .But Sony on the other hand is trailing behind and although it has some casual grabbers as Singstar,Buzz ,Eye Toy and Eye of Judgement for the future it has to convince first and now the hardcore gamers and not only the FPS-lovers but also the RpG-lovers and the adventure-action-arcade lovers .
The bad press image of Sony started with the E3 of last year ,when they offered a so-so event with very little passion and many footage but few seconds of each game and those games were years off .....plus the announcement of the price tag at the end of the conference that was as cold water in the face of the publishers and media guys there .
What Sony has to do is unveil many new games ,show some of the ones in its near finished state (Lair ,Heavenly Sword ,Uncharted ,Ratchet and Clank ,Folklore ,etc ) and the new Singstar and Eye of Judgement working with the Playstation Eye for the people there to play it .THen unveil Home and let players get to grips with it .Then Little Big Planet .Then some third party exclusives .And finish the event with the announcement of a price cut .Now that would turn the tides .
