What rubbish

The competition did well this year on reducing the crap:content ratio. Sony was the worst of the three, but that was only because of the "Powers" outlier (if i may say, that part was hard to watch. The rest of the show was solid to great). Nintendo gets some commendation for Treehouse, though, a constant stream of content including a lot of stuff that wasn't even touched upon in the digital event.

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
I find all this hard to understand. This whole winning E3 thing. Especially if winning E3 is based on showing or displaying games. Thats like saying a game company won E3 because they you know.... showed games.
I also read a lot of this stuff about the games nintendo showed, well... we all know that by no standard did they show the most amount of games, so it has to be that they showed the games people wanted to see. This can really be read as zelda, smash bros and splatoon cause in truth nothing else was "shown". Now if eventually having games to show when they are ready to show means that you have won E3, doesn't that mean that by default sony and MS will win next year E3 simply because they will then be in a position to show more games further into development?
Call me crazy, but I think a better way to gauge who wins E3 is by looking at who coming outta E3 garnered the most momentum. And that in turn is reflective in sales of the console or games shown. I mean, isn't that the whole point of E3 to begin with?
Having said that, I don't think nintendo won E3, they simply capitalized on the fact that they have been working on their games longer than anyone else and had those games to show. A game company finally coming out and showing games for their console isn't supposed to be a big deal. I feel MS won E3. Not only did they show games, they also shook off all the negativity surrounding their console. Nintendo would have won E3 for me if they dropped the price of the WiiU, cause obviously at its current price people aren't interested in the console.
| DarkD said: yea they did that for one game to show off that it was open world this time. Next year I guarantee you that they'll have gameplay. They'll probably spend 3 hours playing in hyrule field showing off the sights. The difference is that every Sony/Microsoft game showed fake graphics through cutscenes, almost every Nintendo game by comparison almost exclusively showed real gameplay. |
Well yeah I'd hope so, if not then it wouldn't be 2015. Also..
All 3 had more than half of actual gameplay shown. While Sony showed the least, MS is in the middle of the 2.

Look at Watch Dogs, Look at Killzone 2. They obviously pretend some things are gameplay when they clearly aren't. I would say the numbers are much worse than what that chart shows.

Oh you meant cheating by using a PC? Yeah that's understandable.

Oh no, those trailers were gameplay, they just ended up looking no where near as good as faslely advertised.

Nintendo didn't restore anything. They had the best conference but MS and Sony had good one's too.
E3 is mostly a joke concept reveals and CGI. It is nice to know certain games are being made, but I would rather see games that are made to the point that they can show some early beta footage of what we are getting.
Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.
Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
