I think microsoft did the best with the free netflix with our live acounts, new dashboard updates, Gears 2 and tons of new games. With the free movies and such i think microsoft won this competition.


EDIT: Alot of people love to get the last words on this website. Can't we all just.... Shut the hell up?

I dunno. I didn't watch any of them, I just read live blogs as they came in.

None of them seemed to excite me at all. MS had nothing we hadn't heard about except the movie rentals (which as far as I know is NA only and you need a netflix subscription as well as Live Gold to get it), and Sony had nothing we hadn't heard about except MAG, and as I said in the other thread i'm VERY sceptical about how thats going to work. Just the thought of over 200 people battling on one server makes me think 'fail'.

Nintendos simply sucked balls so it doesn't get a mention. I'm going to vote MS because i'll be getting that cool looking update for the 360 later in the year

Where are all the Xbox fanboys now that Sony showed off a ton of exclusive games?  And Archer pls watch the conferences before talking that amount of crap.  Seriously dude.
lol, nice assumption

I watched all of the conferences; except like 30 mins of the Nintendo conference because it didn't interest me much. Did you watch the others ones; lol? Somehow I doubt it. Shame too, it's such a great year for games and people just slump into their own console of preference, rather than just admire the great games that are coming out of all 3 companies in general.

Also, when did I talk crap? Please point it out; as I think most people detect none whatsoever. Preference to MS [conference] =/= Talking crap.. I don't think my opinion is "outrageous" enough to qualify as crap.

Sounds like you're a Sony fanboy btw; mmm
I watched the three conferences except for a part of Nintendo's, although everyone said it was shit.

Where did you talk crap?  Let's see.

I think Nintendo had a very meh conference due to nothing special besides Wii Motion plus. Though I'm still sure it'll still be HUGELY successful.YOU WERE DOING FINE UNTIL THIS

Sony had a really good conference, Visual wise... I was impressed with the content management and that was about it, to be honest. Of course God Of War III will be a good game, but all I saw for now was some pre rendered stuff.OF COURSE IT WAS PRE RENDERED, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT IF THIS WAS THE ANNOUNCEMENT MAG could be really good, or really fail. Very 2-sided coin like probabilities.  THIS WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST ANNOUNCEMENTS OF THE E3 Home looked good. But really only eye-candy.HOME IS SHIT, A SIMS WANNABE  Though I think it's one of the best things Sony has going for it.

Microsoft had killer games too, like Fallout 3 and stuff. And the Resident Evil 5 co-op mode was  though Avatar thing was pretty low of them to do. Ok-ish at best.THOSE GAMES ARE FOR PS3 TOO

EDIT: Btw WTF, many companies had shit missing. Like Killzone 2KILLZONE 2 WAS PRESENTED BOTH DURING THE SONY CONFERENCE (SHORTLY) AND IN ANOTHER CONFERENCE WHERE THEY RELEASED A NEW E3 TRAILER, Bungie's un-announced game, (even though they're not with MS; they could very well be 3rd party devs for 360) and I THINK no Halo Wars.
And of course, you don't mention anything about the exclusive games Sony announced this year for PS3.  You guys stay with MS having FF, big deal.  The important thing is the exclusive games line-up of PS3 is bigger and better than MS'.

HOME IS SHIT, A SIMS WANNABE Opinion Though I think it's one of the best things Sony has going for it.

EDIT: Btw WTF, many companies had shit missing. Like Killzone 2 KILLZONE 2 WAS PRESENTED BOTH DURING THE SONY CONFERENCE (SHORTLY) AND IN ANOTHER CONFERENCE WHERE THEY RELEASED A NEW E3 TRAILER ****, Bungie's un-announced game, (even though they're not with MS; they could very well be 3rd party devs for 360) and I THINK no Halo Wars.
* = With next-gen graphics especially from an internal studio; being one of the heavy hitters and (even though the games will surely be AMAZING) a valuable Sony hype machine; add to that with the advent of stunning next-generation graphics I think it's certainly not too much to ask for a live in-game trailer. (Like Microsoft did with Halo 3, and even though Rockstar is a 3rd party company, they still did put out live gameplay trailers)

Opinion ** = Just because (again there was no live gameplay trailer) they showed it at the end of the press conference doesn't mean that it's one of the "biggest announcements of THE (lol) E3"


Opinion *** = Again, nice assumption. If you've noticed, throughout my past posts in this topic I've been talking about who's press conference was the best. [Atleast in the aforementioned] Not who was the best in general, not who had the most "exclusive games" in general. I only thought that Microsoft's conference was the best because it showcased the games (even though multi-platform) were shown in the Microsoft press conference "exclusively" (ie. RE5 co-op announcement; live gameplay demo) Why must you assume the conference of my choice (as in the content that was shown in the press conferences) matches my immediate console of my choice?


Opinion **** = That's right; in another press conference held privately by the developer company. It doesn't
stray from the fact that that it wasn't [properly] shown at the Sony press conference. A live gameplay trailer; or even a simple trailer (though I doubt it, after the CGI controversy and the reveal of actual live gameplay) would not be totally out of the question since Killzone 2 is one of the strongest and most anticipated games (imo) Sony has in its upcoming games catalogue.

Now if I look at the quote, many of the things you've stated are undeniably opinions and blatant assumptions. Forcing them on me with caps-lock and bold is pretty fucking annoying, not to mention immature. I'm pretty sure D&ST even frowns upon that.

By the way sergeriver; from the CRUISE CONTROL caps and the the "bigger than you" bold I think you're failing to keep a level head in this discussion. I'm pretty sure this is not for you.

There are still Nintendo mags that insist they have the best console. It's pretty pitiful really. I last read one at the start of 2008 was a friends issue of NGamer and it had something like:

"Inside, the reason why the Wii is the BEST CONSOLE OF 2008!"

I don't know if the writers actually believe it or not anymore.

Exactly.

They have a poll up on gtagaming.com right now asking who will buy it...the response is overwhelmingly...you guessed it, "no".
