Microsoft have dropped the ball, do they remember the 360 is a VG Console?

Well, they did say that they were going to go for E3, did they not?

And did Sony actually announce anything worthwhile (for gamers)? Or do they also still have to go?

Sort of. They peripherally announced a fuckton of games when talking about Phyre Engine.

And the new Ratchet & Clank was just unveiled.

But this is off topic.

Was that confirmed? I saw that on a French website, but I'd never trust the French.

Nice. Though I guess it was pretty much an open secret.

Not even Sony's division in France? Those were the ones who announced it after all

No exceptions.

People are worried about nothing. Alan wake and Halo ODST aren't the only titles MGS is releasing this year

E3 has been ramped up again so maybe we should expect it then. Last year they managed to pull a few rabbits out of the hat and certainly gave the impression of pumping out some good games.

They better do something soon because this QuakeLive and Battlefields Heroes thing has kept me away from my console. I am only playing games with my boy at the moment.

Meh, that's why I rarely buy consoles at launch. I still have tons of backcatalog games to get through on my PS3 and 360, even if there are barely any new games I'm going to buy on them this year.

^No, he's saying that it doesn't matter because you've got enough to play, anyway (especially if you've just picked up the console, rather than buying it at launch).

Did you read more than the first sentence of my post?

The point is that because I bought the 360 years into its life there were a lot of games to go back and play (for cheap), whereas those people who've owned it since launch will run out of things to play if the 360 has a slow year.

Yes, I did. I just didn't connect it to the second sentence for some reason.
