I really commend MS for at least trying to contribute to these game shows. Absolutely hate that Sony is absent at all of these events.
I get the argument for not wanting to fight for attention but I would argue that the games industry as a whole can make a bigger splash than any individual company.
I would think that its healthy for our industry to have fan events like gamescom, E3 etc.... keeps the discussions and excitement going. Excitement and hype use to be such a big part of enjoying gaming.
