The funny thing is MS had a way better E3 than Sony did last year. I mean what did Sony even announce at E3 last year? All I remember was a bunch of Multi-platform stuff.

The Order 1886 plus a bunch of timed console exclusive indie games.

What put them over the top was the fact they listened to the consumer base, and didn't include DRM/online connectivity with their console. That and 399 =)

MS didn't even talk about any of their policies.

I agree, that video as well as Jack Tretton's microphone drop were both pretty classless, considering the fact that Sony had plans for DRM themselves that were cancelled, probably shortly before E3 after they saw the negative reaction to the Xbox's One's DRM announcement.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

Geoff Keighley told him to do that! What do you want him to say? No Geoff, and dissapoint the people watching?! OOOOOOO boy I had a good laugh with that one.

And you believing the rumours that Sony had plans for DRM, that were all cancelled like a week before E3. Let me guess, do you also believe that they dropped the price to 399 after watching MS's conference a couple hours earlier? 

Oh man. You really had me going with that one.

That sharing video Sony made was hilarious. One of the best parts of E3 last year.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Have you guys ever bought a used controller? I bought one from Amazon (Xbox One controller) and I just received it and when I insert the batteries, it has this light, white light that immediately fades after I press it. I can't get it to get that sustained bright white light. Have tried 4 separate battery pairs and nothing. This is defective right? I don't think it has anything to do with having to sync it since I don't remember doing this for my original One controller.

tried the sync button on the console?

It has to at least be fully illuminated, or actually on (doesn't necessarily mean connected to the console, just on).

It's not even on :(


Yea send it back to the seller. Try to see if it works without the batteries. Plug in your Usb cord see if it comes on

E3 is about video games is it not? In that regard MS blew Sony out the water that's just the truth. I hope Sony actually announces some new games this time around that aren't multi-platform.

Yes, he could have refused on the grounds that it would look unprofessional. But regardless, I already disliked Jack Tretton before that because of his arrogance and trash-talking of the competition.

It has nothing to do with rumors, and those weren't just rumors anyways, one of those came from an industry source. But regardless of all of that, it was my own investigation that lead me to believe that Sony had plans for DRM. The fact of the matter is that Sony held a patent for DRM during the development of the PS4. And then they lied and said that they didn't even consider DRM. At least Microsoft was upfront and honest, and I respect them for that. Also I was actually pretty impressed with some of Microsoft's original plan, not all of it of course, but they had plans to take what Steam has already done with digital gaming and improve upon it further, for instance they planned to set up a used game trading marketplace where used games sales would go to the developer and publishers, where it belongs, instead of into the pockets of retailers like current used game sales. 

Ok detective.

The Order 1886 is multi plat?
