Slimebeast said: Some Sony fans should show some decency. We MS boys admitted MS conference was weak so we gave it 3's and 4's. You guys give a weaker conference 7s and 8s.
So had they announced God of War 4 (an announcement roughly on par with MS's Halo 4) you'd probably gave it 9s and 10s?
Com'on, Sony ain't all that.

They announced a whole new gaming platform and priced it well. That's a pretty big announcement, far more than Halo 4. Yes, Halo is a big for Microsoft, but nowhere near as big as a new platform. Your perspective seems a little awry.
|
So even though we knew all that since months, about the new handheld and Uncharted 3, Resistance 3, it's that good? So basically by your logic Nintendo conference is automatically 9-10 because we already know they'll show a new console?

I didn't say that. Please don't put words into my mouth. I said that the Vita was a big announcement. Bigger than Halo 4. And that the price was a big surprise for many. $249 is a hell of a lot cheaper than many expected. That goes some way to explaining why so many chose 8/10. As for Nintendo: They still have to confirm the specs and price of their machine, as well as a launch list of games, so there is no automatic 9-10 or similar. It depends upon what is announced later today. My 'logic' as you call it does not entail what you suggest at all.
Also, did you read my other post to you? There were many more games than Uncharted 3 and Resistane 3?
So, I repeat, your perspective seems awry. I'm surprised you can't see why people liked what they saw. It may not suit you, but there was quite a lot there, and it clearly suits others.

"Honestly, it was a bad conference. Really bad. It lacked any decent announcement. It lacked any oomph. It was, in truth, a Kinect launch platform, but the Kinect games were all very similar: on rails flailing and waving hands at on-screen targets. Utterly uncool. Fine for young children, but that's it. An utter failure, and I'm sorely disappointed." Your words on the MS conference. Sony conference, the only surprise was $249 PSP2 price, everything else we already knew. You are so biased man.

I'm not biased, I'm disappointed. The Microsoft conference was bad. It had very little to interest me and I'd hoped for much more. Nothing wrong with that. Opinions are opinions. But what has that got to do with this thread?
Let's readdress what's happening here: You made some points, I countered them. I never even mentioned what I thought of the Sony conference (I was underwhelmed, personally), yet you seem to think I think it was good. I never said that. I said there was a lot that others would find good (and did). Really, attacking my opinion of the Microsoft conference has nothing to do with this conversation. Indeed, I'd suggest you were simply trying to divert attention from my deconstruction of your incorrect points, rather than address my argument and show me how I'm wrong. I've clearly shown where you are wrong.
Actually, on that, let me do it again: 'the only surprise was $249 PSP2 price'. No, it was't. There were many surprises. As a small sample: confirmation that 3DTVs would allow full-screen co-op; Ruin, Move integration for Bioshock Infinite, Bioshock on PSV, Dust, Star Trek (with Move), and more. Sure, it may not be the surprises you were looking for, but clearly it is what some others were looking for as the poll shows.
The real question is: why are you so bothered that many people clearly enjoyed the Sony show?
