Forums - Gaming - E3 press conference timing - Sony is in a better position than MS.

MS goes for the "I got first so I can get the most event time post my conference, so what can be seen here first will be and get talked about in the following days" and Sony goes for "I got last so I can show off against everything else already shown and let the aftermatch of the event coverage being focused on me and my games that if stuck after all that, are likely winners".

That makes some sense. It still feels a bit odd to put the ball so readily in your closest competitor's court. Sony has plenty of time now to adjust last minute details in response if they wish (chief among them being pulling the trigger or not on price cuts depending on Scorpio's announced price). I guess they feel they benefit more from getting out in front regardless of the response time it gives their competition.

Unless you're in Europe. Then Sony screwed you over big time with theirs while Microsoft's is perfectly watchable

This. Apparently Sony hates Europe while MS is a lot friendlier.

This made me spit out my tea xD

 

Sony get to go after so their showing will stick in people's minds more after all is said and done.
