idk about you but i loved the 3d tv bundle. perfect size for my room and the new full screen split screen is a very big announcement in my opinion xD also. idk how much 3d tvs are nowadays, but a $500 3d tv plus a game, pair of glasses, and hdmi cord sounds like a great deal to me. sooo.. it may not have been a new game. but i still count it as something in favor of sony

So this is a serious thread?

lol, let me tell you exactly why MS failed epic at E3.

Hear me out now....

MS only reveals everything at E3, you guys say this yourself, don't you? Now Sony spent 1 hour or so on PS Vita at E3 so ignoring that is a massive fail on your part since if Sony didn't talk about PS Vita they would have talked about the PS3. Its simple.

Sony is not going to site on its a** for the rest of the year, they will be revealing games throughout the year so as far as I am concerned I am not worried. They revealed a big game like Uncharted 3 at VGA last year and starhawk could have been easily revealed at E3 but they didn't. Resistance 3 at gamescom last year as well.

Its a simple thing. We are not going to get anything out of MS anywhere except E3. Sony meanwhile, doesn't take E3 that seriously. Overall presentation is obviously going to be more important in this case. Where MS will obviously have higher expectations since they do reveal big stuff at E3 and nowhere else.

You are talking about Halo? Again, we have seen how many Halo games this gen? Halo 3, ODST, Reach just last year, and now a remastered Halo along with Halo 4, 5 and 6 in the future. That makes it at least 5 halo games this gen. Oh WOW what an unexpected announcement.

That is excluding Halo wars as well.

They also showed every title they showed last E3, like GoW 3, Forza 4, Ryse (they haven't still announced a date for this or an year), so predictable its ridiculous.

Here's the prediction for the next E3 of MS, spoilers if you are excited for it:
MW4 or the next CoD
A couple of multiplats.
Ryse.
Kinect stuff.
Halo 4.
Halo 5 and Forza 5 have a good chance.
And maybe something else to end it all. A new Xbox console maybe.


Well MS's Press Conference was an hour and a half where Sony still had an hour for PS3. Just because they chose to spend that time pitching a Resistance 3 HDTV bundle, doesn't mean they didn't have time, but good point.

Also MS doesn't always announce everything at E3.Project Draco and Steel Batallion were announced at Tokyo Game show, Forza 4 was announced at the Spike TV Game of the Year awards, and Gears 2 was randomly announced during the year. Halo generally gets an E3 announcment.

I don't think there is enough ground to say Sony will announce games throughout the year, but MS will not, nice try. I will agree with you about Halo, always announced at E3, and they are making too many for 360 now.

However I wouldn't count ODST as a full pledged Halo game, and Halo Wars is a strategy game, very different. 360 so far only has 2 major Halo games, and now 2 more for the future. I don't think the Halo trilogy will all be 360 exclusive, that would mean that in 2014, when a 360 successor is released (latest) 360 will be getting a flagship game, but the successor.

I will agree with you that MS's lineup is very generic, but in reality is Nintendo or Sony that different? Nintendo always focus's on a Mario, Zelda or Metroid title (for Wii, Zelda, for 3DS Zelda, Starfox, Mario, Mario Kart, Luigi, and Kid Icarus), and Sony always focus's on an Uncharted, Resistance, LittleBigPlanet, Killzone, God of War or InFamous title (and they did this year, except for Killzone every one of those games is getting a new installment, biggest PSV games are Uncharted and LBP).

However, with Mass Effect no longer exclusive, MS needs to make a new IP, more desparatly then Sony or Nintendo. Nintendo at least can make so many spin offs, and because it has 4 consoles now, you're going to see IP's reused many times.

So I still think MS won, and I don't agree with your arguement on Sony announcing more titles then MS throughout the year. However I will agree that MS's lineup is more generic then Sony's or Nintendo. Even though, all of them are pretty generic, which is to be expected since they are all well into the lives of their respective consoles.

Well, there are exceptions I guess. I haven't ever seen MS announce any game outside E3 except for Gears of War 3. I can't see what they will do now till the next E3, from the last E3 till this year we haven't seen a thing from MS except kinect projects from Japan which we know nothing about. Its possible they will elaborate on it this TGS as well. But its just kinect stuff and kinect stuff are nowhere that interesting to me as much as Gears and Mass Effect are. Ryse going kinect is not helping things either.

Lets not forget that MS will always have a particular game at E3 if its going to be released and is an important title. Even if its not an announcement, they will have it.

Gears 2, Gears 3, Mass Effect 2 (I think), Forza 4, Forza 3, probably a lot more. Halo is the only franchise I know which is always announced at E3, and because of it MS had a better E3 then Sony did for PS3.

For upcoming games Project Draco, Steel Batallion, Rise of Nightmares, Gears of War Exile, and the said Forza 4 and Gears 3 were outside of E3.

Forza 4, Dungeon Hero, and The Witcher 2, were announced between last and this E3, and several Japanese Kinect games.

What's really happening is that MS's lineup's are becoming more Kinect focused then you and I would like. I was also really looking forward to a medevil sword fighting exclusive from Crytek. Microsoft is only advertizing their Kinect games, and the exclusives they are releasing for non-Kinect, are just sequels from established franchises. Yes Sony does the same, but they have a bigger pool of IP's to choose from, and they are reviving some older IP's (Sly, ICO, Twisted Metal).

Microsoft should do the same, where is Conker, can't they make a good Perfect Dark game? What about Crimson Skies, or geting together with Bioshock to make another Jade Empire?

Both were terrible, but MS was even worse.



updated: 14.01.2012

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

Judging by early comments.... Posters can't read.

On a simple 360 v ps3 comparison then 360 wins.

Lot's of Bias on this website. Also a lot of people really don't like Halo or Kinect. YEa PS3 only had Sly, Dragon's Crown, Medevil Moves, and Starhawk, but 360 had 4 Kinect exclusives, and 2 halos. All the games looked great, but some people really hate Kinect/Halo.

I think Microsoft  do not need to develop a real new IP if they only add to there existing Core IPs Halo, Gears of War, Fable and Forza the Alan Wake IP and one of the awesome Rare IPs like Conker than i would be total satisfied. Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza, Alan Wake and Conke that would be a killer core IP line Up, sadly Microsoft completely waste the potential of Rare.

A new Conker, or Killer Instinct, would immediatly make 360's lineup supperior. Ms does have a small pool of good IP's from Rare to fall back on, why aren't they using them? MS doesn't necessarily need a new IP, but they need a big title other then Halo, Gears, Forza, Fable, and Alan Wake.

I dont get what you want say  you say it self that Microsoft show many new Games for the Xbox 360 at E3 far far more than Sony did for PS3. Sony showed only one new Game for PS3 at E3 the new Sly Game and Microsoft showed many new Xbox live Games, they showed Halo HD, Halo4, Witcher 2, Minecraft, Dance Central, Kinect Sports2 and other new Kinect Games,   so why than they had a worse E3 with the Xbox 360 than Sony with the PS3 in your opinion?

Witcher 2 will probably come out on the PS3 as well next year. And it wasn't even shown at E3!

PS3 also had ruins although I am not interested in it, it had DUST 514 which is an exclusive FPS for the PS3 and PS Vita (for those who don't know).

Minecraft ok, that was good, but honestly its not my type of game. But it was pretty good announcement nonetheless, it doesn't add much to the 360 library since its also playable on many other platforms including linux.

Kinect Sports 2, Dance Central 2 etc are all kinect games. You can possibly counter them with PS Vita games like Uncharted Golden Abyss and PS Move games like that medieval thing.

There's also twisted Metal, and ratchet and clank all 4 one on the PS3 that wasn't shown at E3 but are available at the booth if you want to play them.


Well The Witcher 2 coming to PS3 is no garentee. Splinter Cell Conviction never migrated over.

Dust 514 is not a PS3 exclusive. It is also being released onto the 360. What is exclusive is that it will have cross platform play between PS3 and PC, but the game is coming to 360.

Minecraft is also not 360 exclusive, just Kinect capable on 360, and I think a timed exclusive.

Also this is a battle between PS3 and 360. PS Vita is not a part of this, read the rules. Overall yes Sony was better, but on 360 vs PS3, 360 was better.

Also I wanted people to look at announced games only. MS announced more games then Sony, and improved the library of future 360 games more then Sony did for PS3. More was shown for MS therefore on a console system part, 360 beat PS3 IMO.

Dust 514 is PS3 exclusive. It's supports cross platform play, yes, but with Eve Online and not another version of Dust 514.

That link only shows how PS3 Dust 514 gamers can interact with EVE PC gamers.

Dust 514 however is not PS3 exclusive.

http://xbox360.ign.com/objects/027/027065.html

PS3 simply has exclusive cross-platform play between PC and PS3, similar to Portal 2.

Unlike splinter cell, witcher was made on the PC first. Conviction was developed on the 360 first. Witcher was never coming to the 360 as well, and they haven't declined a PS3 version. So there's a high chance its going to be on the PS3. For eg: Sniper Ghost Warrior.

Most of the PC/360 multiplats end up being on the PS3 if its a big enough game, conviction was one of the few that didn't. Instead PS3 got splinter cell collection I think.
