I'm calling it - this E3 will be the biggest E3 for the PS3 yet. Not the biggest E3 for the comapny period, but the PS3. With this major shift in the PS brand and its marketing, the E3 needs to match it.

In think it's the biggest E3 for everyone. Like I said before, this is the time Sony and Microsoft have to do something about Nintendo. Nintendo is up and ready to kick Sony and Microsoft out of the market space, and they need to stop them. Natal and Move need to come out swinging.

Not at all... the PS360 see most third party support, and being very similar platforms, vastly different from the Wii, they can be almost viewed as one. Their marketshare is a little bigger than the Wii's in size, too. The Wii may squeeze them further in marketshare, but it'll never kick them out.

Though, you're probably right about this years' show being the biggest for all three.

Nintendo is using disruption with the Wii and probably the DS. Disruption is not about disrupting product, it's about disrupting companies. What Nintendo is doing is taking a poker game and turning it into Uno. Nintendo will win Uno and take Sony and Microsoft's chips. Whenever disrupting is employeed, the end result will be (unless stopped) that the competitors will be gone. Nintendo can destory Sony and Microsoft. That's their plan at least.

This is why I say this year is big. Sony and Microsoft have to stop Nintendo or else.

nah i bet microsoft can buy nintendo if they want lol  microsoft can flex their muscles AND BE LIKE WTF BOOOMMM TO THE WORLD!! lol

Actually, disruptors are usually small start up companies that beat out large corperations. Remember that Wal-Mart started as a small company in Arkansas.

Even as a Nintendo fan I can see the P.S.3 slowly catching up to not only the 360 but the Wii as well. This E3 I see Sony having a very big showcase of the P.S.3 and many amazing games. Microsoft will have Natal which I do think will do some damage but won't be able to keep up because of its main flaw.(Japan) I don't see the 360 becoming popular in Japan at any time while the P.S.3 is gaining success in Japan and will continue to do so with the Move but not only that the Classic "core" games. Gran Turismo 5 will be big in Japan but they also have many other games that could end up doing Very well there if done right. As far as America and Others go I think that COULD also go the P.S.3's side. I think that the P.S.1 and P.S.2 base is still out their and Sony has yet to give them a real reason to buy the P.S.3 with the price it is/was. With these "core" P.S.3 games such as Gran Turismo 5 it could help Sony a lot. Nintendo will have a big E.3 as well and though they won't let their most successful Home console down I think their main focus will be the 3.D.S. They will continue to DESTROY Sony on the Handheld side of things but may start falling some in console sales. As to which console will sell more I say it depends on how long this gen lasts and if Sony can keep gaining success with the P.S.3.

Hmm, it looks like a nice solid list of games that I have little interest in owning. Im not denying their obvious good points, however theres nothing in that list which really appeals to me to say that I would go out first day and buy it. There are a couple of notable rentals however and the one exception would probably be Infamous 2 as open world games are like a sucker punch on me.

Verdict: So far good for other people, but theres little for me as I have my eyes set on games like Mech Warrior 5 (PC), Fallout: New Vegas (PC), Halo: Reach, Crackdown 2, Fable 3 (PC), Civilization 5(PC) etc. Im not trying to be off topic with that but I just wanted to explain to anyone who would be perturbed by my lack of interest what games im actually interested in.

 

 



Atto Suggests...:

Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series 

Game - Metro Last Light

TV - Deadwood

Music - Forest Swords

This is why I say this year is big. Sony and Microsoft have to stop Nintendo or else.

The Wii is, however, not as strong as it was before. This "disruption" talk fits '08 more than it does this year, as things are pretty much leveled and trends aren't changing much.

All consoles have found their niches and are doing well in all of them, which is why Nintendo doesn't to be stopped - they aren't big with the audience buying the PS3 and 360.

None of that has to do with disruption. Nintendo is past the stage of agressive growth anyway.

This will help describe how Nintendo has been going with disruption. Nintendo has been along with this plan from the start.

Nintendo is going to go after Sony and Microsoft's market. Why make consumers buy Motion Plus when the new market seems content with the current offereings? Nintendo is making it beat because they are aiming at the higher teir market, who is more demanding. This is why Zelda, a very "deep" and involving game, will have motion controls.

But think about these two things and then ask yourself if Nintendo is trying to kick them out of the industry

  • In 2007, 2008 and so on, analyst said Nintendo needs to release a Wii HD. Now, in 2009, Sony and Microsoft showed off their own motion controls with a Wii HD no where in sight. Why would Microsoft and Sony release motion controls if they are in serperate markets and can't infringe on each other? Analyst have all said Nintendo needs to go HD but Sony and Microsoft are going motion controls instead.
  • Nintendo has avoided HD this entire generation. Now, they are making a 3D video game system. What changed? why is Nintendo, who has been against visuals, making a product for 3D? (Also ask yourself, what company is investing heavily into 3D and makes Video Game consoles).

    Dare I say it... Year of the ps3?



    GameBoss01 on 06 June 2010

    Just give me all the games above and include for the PSP: Uncharted PSP, GOW: Ghost of Sparta, PsP price drop, PSPgo price drop and a lot on PlayStation Move and it will be one of the best E3 shows of all time. (Compared to 2006)
