I'll give it a 7. It was really more similar to the Xbox event last month than I would have liked. A lot of indie titles, and a lot of fire and forget trailers that gave you little idea of how the games actually play. Some of the titles also seemed to have very poor framerates, noticeably chugging along at under 30fps, which leaves a lot to be desired for showcases where you're trying to put your best foot forward. That said, they did throw in a few more notable third party games, and obviously some big first party games (albeit some were suspiciously lacking even general release windows). Ratchet and Clank particularly looked like good fun. They also revealed the form factor, and while it's not my personal cup of tea, that was an unexpected surprise, given that everyone was saying they were going to wait.
All in all, solid, serviceable, better than what came before....but far from a killshot, or particularly awe inspiring. So far, I'm thinking both Sony and MS can do a lot better.
