Microsoft seem to have gone in an arrogant direction. They claim that they will “kill Sony” at E3 this year.

This shouldn’t be a surprise, really, because the company has spent $1 billion on Xbox One games. Will Sony match that amount of spending by Microsoft? We will see at E3, however, Microsoft is looking extremely confident based on the translated comments of Craig Davidson, who is the Director of Global Marketing at the company.

“Xbox One will surprise the world during E3,” he said, and added, “Let’s kill Sony at E3″.

This seems to be something that Ken Kutaragi would have said and such arrogance does not bode well for the company. However, they seem to be motivated and that’s a good thing.

Earlier Microsoft’s Aaron Greenberg had said that they are definitely listening to fan feedback and said that E3 is all about games and they have a lot to share.

No, they haven't. The original article says they plan to spend this amount. And seriously, if that's all they're planning to spend for a whole generation that's peanuts.

You know this wouldn't inlcude what their own studios make and their publishing efforts....because those things are part of their daily business.

That 1 billion spent on securing things that normally wouldn't be attained for free/favours. This is certainly more then what Sony would spend.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Actually, the original article says the plan to spend more than a billion in the next year, not for the whole generation

Also, @VGKing:
"Yes, fifteen is a high number, and it's an aggressive and ambitious one," Davidson said. "I think it's a huge testament to the faith that Microsoft has in this platform. And that's not even counting third party! You'll hear about new third party games at E3, so that's going to be exciting too.

I've never jumped the gun and gotten on the Xbox One hate wagon. Though I have no interest in the console and am definitely getting PS4 I can safely say that there is a lot of time from now til November. Everything can change in 6 months. Microsoft better bring it after a statement like that though.

Not counting 3rd party is a very interesting thought, meaning Ryse and Quantum are seperate!
