Ok, so PS3 concedes 2007 because they only have Lair, Warhawk, Heavenly Sword, Socom, Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted, Folklore, Singstar, Unreal Tournament 3, Haze, among others.

Nintendo has Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime, Brawl, Boogie, and not much else I can think of that is that interesting.

MS has a good lineup, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo 3, Lost Odyssey, Eternal Sonata, Blue Dragon, proabably some more I am forgetting.

Sony had the best show, then probably Nintendo (minus all of the mindless Wii casual promotion), and then MS because nothing was that enticing that wasn't already there.

 Meh gotta say most of those PS3 games you name are kinda weak, it'll be until 2008 before the games that can justify that PS3 price come out (MGS4, Killzone, FF13)

Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

Any bets on who is going to get more media coverage out of E3? Nintendo, of course...

And BTW, Sony did lose their 2007 war already, this conference confirms it.

==> what ? media coverage ?
you mean from video game website ?

Sure it would be sony !!!
We all know that even if GT5 true new ingame and FFXIII ingame was needed, Sony make more "hyp" than the 2 others.
Just sad they dont mention others game like Africa.



Time to Work !

Sony may have done a good job (considering the material they had) with this presentation, but still not good enough to get out the craphole they stuck themselves at.

Nintendo did more than enough to improve their position.

Microsoft basically did nothing to improve or worsen their position. It's clear they're waiting for Halo...

Sony's games look beautiful... pitty they'll be on a console that isn't selling... If only graphics mattered more than gameplay the PS3 would dominate this generation.

The idea that E3 is gonna get people to buy more PS3s right now is false. But the games coming will sell more consoles along with the cut when they hit.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Overall grade, B+. The best conference, but still disappointing. The MGS4 trailer was good and Killzone 2 looks good (other than some major early graphical issues, but those should be fixed) but overall not very interesting as he goes through PSP game after PSP game that no one cares about then tons of non-exclusive PS3 games. I was very bored with E3 this year. Hopefully 3rd parties show something good.

Pretty much agree, Killzone and MGS4 were nice, wasn't really impressed with the rest of it. Unlike Ninty they went totally for the hardcore gamer


 For E3 thats probably the right strategy, with the enthousiast press there. Save the touch generation for TV commercials or something.


 Wrong, for E3 you want to go with stuff that'll make it into the news, and Wiifit will be in the news

 

You think NBC will talk about Killzone 2, unless Jack gets involved?

Presentation was awful on Sony's part. Lots of games that have already been seen. Two new things that anyone cares about, UT timed exclusive, and new exclusives. Kwaad is an idiot again no surprises there. Yes they won E3, but only because I am not gonna dock them to harshly for that god awful performance. Home looks like a piece of shit, and I still haven't seen one thing which it offers to someone that doesn't have a computer. The graphics over the live stream sucked so I couldn't really tell on how well the Killzone video compared to the infamous trailer.

Does anyone else feel the need to beat up Phil, Kaz, and Jack and take their lunch money or is it just me.
