Why is the Switch one included in the poll? It's not really a big direct at the same level.

Just so people can vote. I thought about putting just PS5 and Xbox event... but on both PS and Xbox presentation thread I saw people talking about the Direct so I thought about leaving it here.

And truth be told for some people probably even that Direct would be more on their interest than both MS and Sony show.

Sony had the better presentation of both exclusives and in general games overall. I would not count the latest Direct in here, since it was barely 8 minutes long compared to the hour long presentations of the other two.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

However that is why the best out of the three. It was over so quickly! :D

Wasn't it PS event just a part 1 while Xbox showcase was part 2? If so, i can't answer that right now, I'll discuss my opinion after state of play show in August 6th.

Well sure I can make another thread whenever SoP in august is done and we can do Part I and II of both shows compared. But for me even if we put both shows of MS together it doesn`t stand over PS5 one. It is a 7 for MS and 9 for Sony imho.

Adding the 8 minute Direct isn't even fair. It had like four games and none of them were heavy hitters. PS5 and Xbox Series X were pretty on par with each other. I give a slight edge to Microsoft, because of my love of Halo and WRPGs. I am really looking forward to Halo, Avowed and Fable of the games shown for Xbox Series X yesterday. For PS5 I am excited for Horizon 2 and Ratchet.

I don`t mind removing it. I didn`t put the Direct on the pool to mock or anything, it was just so people could chose it if they wanted, and it got votes.

I'd say leave it for now. I am hoping we get a bigger Nintendo Direct soon. It stinks having no idea what the Switch will get in terms of releases this holiday season.

Ok, will leave it... if I see to many people complaining or bashing Nintendo because of the Direct I`ll remove so it become strictly about the 2 shows. Or I can put an edit on OP and have the Directs from January to July together since MS and Sony didn`t had smaller shows before for these games.
