You should stop generalizing as much as you do. It just looks petty and desperate. The internet exploaded. Not everyone is media or a Sony fan. Look around. Everyone and their sister are losing their shit over this. Even in this very forum you have a lot of Xbox fans saying the same thing. So you can stop pretending any time now. Kickstarter crashed, VGCZ and other gaming sites started lagging like crazy, etc. We saw nothing like that for MS's press conference, because there was nothing like this at their presentation. Shenmue is already at 1,1m at Kickstarter.
Backwards compatibility was indeed the biggest buzz follwng MS press conference, and that says it all. New games >>>>>>> old games.
A feature which we by the way don't know how it'll pan out yet.

Bottom line.
Sony's press conference is historical. It will be the one to beat for future megaton surprise game announcements.
MS's was good. But not more than that.

THIS!!

Sony did it for me, just for showing gameplays of Horizon, Uncharted, and Last Guardian.

MS big announcement is last gen games.. meanwhile sony brought a portfolio of next gen exclusives, and did something that seems foreign to MS. Showing gameplay

That's what I do not get from (mostly) MS fans trying so hard to get it out there that MS "won." Their biggest announcement, according to them, was BC. Just...really? PS3 had BC. Was that a megaton? Nope. Didn't even help it. Same goes for Wii U. Now, all of a sudden MS is adding it (in steps) and it's supposed to be this big game changer? Sorry, but it's not. It won't even really help sales, especially outside the US/UK. Again, the biggest game reveals from MS were either CG or games we already knew about for a year or more. Just no comparison.

100% agree with this stament. MS fans are backing this backwards compatabilty like its the greatest thing ever when really its not even a complete feature yet. The fact of the matter is Sony showed the most games, the most gameplay and the most exclsuive content from third parties. There is no argument here SOny had the overall better confrence.

Microsoft was so much better because they actually showed exclusives. Even without Crackdown, Scalebound and Quantum Break. I watched on Youtube and Geoff's panel all gave Sony a B while Microsoft got a mix of A and B.

Not to bash MS's conference, it was good enough, but they didn't show all that many exclusives either...

They showed Halo, but we already knew about that, so that is the equivalent of Uncharted in the Sony conf. Then they showed Recore, a acGI trailer/cutscene with no gameplay, which I guess can be seen as the equivalent of Horizon, although we got actual gameplay with Horizon. Then of course they showed Gears 4 gameplay, while we got TLG gameplay. Ms also showed Rare's IP, the pirate thingy, while Sony had MM's new IP.

But eh, I guess Sony didn't show any exclusives, and I was just dreaming the entire thing.

Xbox One has the best exclusives and its not even a debate anymore. People where saying wait till E3 to see what Sony has coming this year and the wait was for nothing. Horizon looks amazing and so does Ratchet and Clank but thats it for PS4. Microsoft showed first time gameplay for much bigger exclusives that are coming this year. Thats what I want to see.
