Forums - Gaming - sony has topped microsoft!

Fei-Hung on 15 July 2008

These shows are are way over hyped. All it does is rage wars between fanboys who never look at logic but just go on parts of information that suits them best.

CONTENT OFFER
Sony offered the most exclusives as well as new content (considering MS dont buy that out as well), Wii offered more of their innovation in gaming (as long as MS dont copy that too) and MS woke up fanboys worldwide buy buying out another exclusive (hardly very creative or worthy of praise). How anyone could consider MS a winner in this is beyond my understanding.

ENTHUSIASM
Sony had the worst presenter one could ask for. Was it me or was he nervous? Next time hire someone who has a bit more life left in him. Nintendo lot clearly had one too many redbulls before they made their presentation and the MS one I didn't actually see so i honestly couldnt say.

MGS4 was the holy bastion of the PS3. although FF13 was similiar, its release date is far enough away that its still unknown.

When is MS going to announce the next xbox? I thought this would have been THE occasion to announce it.

CG trailers are boring, we want gameplay.

I think one thing we can all agree on

E3 is no longer what it used to be and more stuff happens seems to happeng at TGS and the Leipzig Convention.

It's amazing how quickly PS3 owners go from FFXIII being the holy bastion of Playstation gaming logic, to whatever other thing they can hold on to.

Is everyone forgetting Huxley? Donnybrook? Yes, MS showed neither, but Sony just had a CG MAG trailer..We could see MS throw up one quick, and ship either a Donnybrook or Huxley before MAG does, with similar specs.

 

 its funny how 360 owners are all of sudden clamoring to final fantasy after downplaying it for the past 2 years..saying its not that important...

BULLSHIT!

Go look up those threads asking what it would take for 360 owners to buy a PS3. GT5, FFXIII, and MGS4 are the biggest reasons for 360 users to convert.

Why did Sony win again, exactly? Aside from the MMO (whoop-de-friggin'-doo, an MMO), we knew about all of these games already. All they did was feed the hype train with more coal, and people seem to be buying into it hook, line, and stinker.

MS still had the best conference, IMO.

 

The new SOCOM isn't exactly your standard MMO.

Considering the domiance of Online Shooters in North America, an MAG of this magnitude could potentially be huge for Sony in North America if Zipper can pull it off. SOCOM is an established Franchise with a decent following and a good developer, so there is hope this game can be really good.


The MS Conference was lame and uneventful untill the final few moments. Sony's didn't exactly set the world on fire, but was the best in comparison.

The fact of the matter is, the FFXIII announcement for 360 is only a big deal if you only own a 360. For a multi-console owner like me, who wasn't a big fan of GoW, the MS conference does nothing for me.

 

Correct my friend.. MMO's usually hold more then 256 players

Maybe Sega should get back in the race while the giants hammer it out? (J/K)

it WAS NOT CG. Seriously your acting like a fanboy today.

 

Pot. Kettle. Black

FFXIII is not that important... I;m sorry it isnt.

Nothing mrstickball has said compares to that.

@OP Ummmm....are you a rookie Sony press rep or something...you haven't used punctuation, but you've worded your post like a press release...

All fluff and no substance.

Also, most of Sony's stuff was FMV\CGI\whatever you want to call it...not in game...not real time.

 

Sorry but how can you say you were pleased with the GOW3 trailer, it was like 15 seconds long and could just have easily been the trailer for a new lord of the rings film!

I'm just bumping this in the hopes that mrstickball or Tigawoods will respond to my Huxley gameplay footage.
