IMO, MS won E3 for sure. The FF XIII announcement was really big. It was THE talked about thing pretty much in every game site. Nothing topped it.
IMO... MS > Sony > Nintendo.

Soriku. No one has "won" E3 yet. E3 still has another day and a half to go. If by "who won E3" you mean who had the best conference, there is only one clear winner. That would be MS. Though the presentation wasn't nearly as clean and well brought up as Sonys, the surprise ending was all they needed to have the best conference. No other company really even had any surprises.
I was happy to see Resistance 2 and Little Big Planet looking good, as well as the new Resistance game for PSP. Those were the biggies for me in the Sony conference. It was a good presentation overall, but it didn't have any surprises, so lacked oomph.
I was very disappointed in Nintendos conference, as they definitely stayed the course of catering towards teh casuals, but it makes business sense. The WiiSpeak was a breath of fresh air (finally), and the MotionPlus is a very cool device. When they announced it and were about to announce Wii sports resorts, I thought they were going to say "a new legend of zelda to be used with MotionPlus". That would have totally turned the show on its head. Instead, all we get is a bunch of jibber jabber about this casual game that uses the balance board and that casual game that uses this other thingy. Oh and an announcement of GTA on DS... with no video... and no screenshots.
There you have it. That is my rant.
