they are both copying apple, but thats nothing new for MS.....     

It's not copying to keep your mouth shut. It's just called being impatient or arrogant. Microsoft was quiet last year about their big guns and so was Sony. Microsoft was actually the most predictable brand last year because everyone knew about that piece of shit Wii music.

What does Apple have to do with E3?

"Nintendo doesn't say anything"  that strategy right there apple always does the no comment on even the simplest of questions. it creates hype of the unknown but expected 

This can very much work against them TBH. They better show up big time.

EDIT: but yes, MS is very very cunning, but so is Nintendo and Sony.

That "secrecy" strategy can work against them too.
Remember Nintendo last E3.... nuff said.

Yea my money is on MS this year, they haven't announce anything!!!!
and i think that deal with square goes deeper than we thought.

But sony is in good shape, they already announced a TON of exclusives, they just need a ICO trailer, a release date for GT5 and a new IP to have a awesome show.

yep

go on joystiq. they just said they found a possible mircosoft motion thingy aswell ..

Yeah i agree,MS has been vewwwy Quiet ,But anyways E3 is less than a month away so some things about MS and E3 will soon start popping up
