Ugh you don't get it. I am saying Sony is really anxious to show off something at E3 and they want MS to show everything so they can just drop it and be done with the suspense. You can tell they are excited about something. They wanted to MS to show their stuff first, but they'll get their wish since Sony delivers their keynote last at E3.

No, I get it. Its just a bunch of nonsense you're eating up.


You guys act like pushing the date from April to late may is doesn't show a little bit of back peddling to gather more resources. It probably is. MS console development cycle wasn't finished in january like Sony.

It's hard to tell, they have too many rumours going around these past few months. But i remember hearing a April reveal before, this was a while back though

My guess is anything before E3 would be deemed a response to Sony by you.

I think the real response to Sony is getting bigger name IPs unveiled at their show. Tech demos don't seem so interesting in comparison. :-p
