Now Microsoft has won E3, will they get a Sony-like boost?

Well, not everyone agrees that M$ won E3, I don't see why M$ got so much credit for showing off loads of 3rd party games? Gears and Banjo looked good, though Fable was a slightly dull show which did not really show anything new.

Last year not everyone agreed that Sony won E3, but it's still acknowledged they did by the community at large.  Its the same for Microsoft this year.

Do you reckon that'll lead to a boost in the coming months?

 

There will be in the US, but that is only because of the price cut. I don't think the announcements will really help, because we still don't know everything about the Live stuff, and though the netflix deal will add more gold subscibers (in the US) all the stuff announced is still several months away, and we did not really see much new in terms of games for this holiday, though Gears and Banjo do definitely look good, but MS 2 (according to hands-on impressions after the press conference), R2 and LBP all look incredible, and KZ 2 keeps looking better, even though it is for Feb. Anyway, I still think Sony won E3, even if it is closer between PS3 and 360
