Forums - Microsoft - Why are Sonyfans playing down Microsoft's conference?

Will you be surprised if Sony announce the PS3 can open a hole in time and space to travel to anywhere, anywhen, and MS fanboys declare it a failure of a conference?

i wouldn't be.

No I wouldn't but if you read the thread you would know thats not my point. .....

Well, it's the internet. It's how things are, sadly.

Certainly, Microsoft didn't have 'teh best sh0w evar!', but they are certainly setting a high standard for everyone else this year.

Also, completely unrelated, but I have to say this: I hate Don Mattrick <_<

I totally agree with you, guy is such a plank!



 

It was a good conference. Nice to build up to a completely exclusive line-up and then another smash with MGS. That Natal Project thing looks promising although I must say that the game that girl was playing wasn't that ... flattering, and looked like ADD... I hope they can do something cool with it, because I'm fearing for a "emotion engine" / eyetoy kind of announcement on it. "yeah yeah, cool, look at it..." and then nothing.



I liked what I saw in the MS conference, but then again I'm not sure I can be called a "Sony fan", for the PS3 is the first Sony console I bought.



I was kind of downplaying it before (having not watched the whole thing), but after seeing some footage of Lionhead's project on Gamtrailers just then I have to say, that was really damn impressive.

Alan Wake looked amazing, too. And of course, I'm stoked about the L4D 2 announcement :)

So, good show MS.

For any rap fans out there...remeber the "Mad Rapper" skits on Biggie's album...well...It would seem like Sony Fans for definitely in that category! Pissed about everything that Xbox nation has...WTF man...they got thei exclusives galore, but they can't stop hating on Xbox nation...it's really freaking sad.

I dont see anyone playing down anyone..

easy...because it's not a Sony E3 conference. It's PS3 fans' human nature to downplay something they don't have.
It's bizarre that a platform/level editor game is called innovative by them but Natal is meh o.O



Being in 2nd feels so much better than being in 3rd

Why do you think? MS fans would be doing the exact same thing in the same situation. Sony fans are probably pissed at the MGS thing and there weren't any new IPs shown either. I've seen equally silly things from 360 fans like "MS have already won E3" and "Sony can't possibly compete". Great conference overall though, I'd say 7.5 or 8/10.



  

I think the conference was GREAT!!!
