Official "Now that the conferences are over" E3 Discussion Thread

Haven't had a chance to look much at Nintendo's confererence yet, but MS seemed lousy compared to last year and Sony, well, anything would be an improvement over '06.

I'm guessing the private company shows (X07, etc.) will be better to compensate

I found that Sony had the best showing. As they had a lack of statistics, which made the 360's and Wii's boring at the beginning.Magical_Guy

Meh you just had to make this after I made my topic down there.

Microsoft - Owned. Announcing their 360 games to be on PC is self ownage.

Nintendo - Haven't seen.

Sony - Seems like full of vg montage ownage + MGS4 ownage + Killzownage!

1st. Sony 2nd. Nintendo 3rd. Microsoft.

Microsoft and Nintendo's were all about sales, which was quite boring.

Sony surprised a lot of people I think. Msoft may have talked about they games they have, but Sony showed the games they have.

Ninty has some interesting hardware coming out, strange and out-there, but interesting.

Now that the conferences are over... can we see some new games? 11Marcel

inFAMOUS was new, and had a bit of video shown.

Oh really. We sure seen Killzone at the MS conference. :roll:

I agree, overall Sony had the best showing. But the most impressive title out of them all?

Lost Odyssey.

Yeh, Sony's was the best methinks. I think they were a bit liberal with the word "exclusive" when they introduced that huge list of multiplatform games, but aside from that it was very well presented.The bit with Chewbacca was just legendary.

His Holiness - theMoore was a bit cringeworthy on Rock Band, but it's nice to see them getting a few family friendly games. I always feel bad when I can't play two player games with my lil's sister because they're all far too violent for her. Party Animals should be great.

The Wii conference was just scary. Well... not the conference, but the guy presenting it. He had weird eyes... like he was trying to hide something. And why did he take such long pauses between words? I also got a bit worried about the pure concentration of controllers you now need to play on the Wii. I'd need an extension on teh house just to store them. That said, Mario Kart, Galaxy and Smash bros looked great. If I had a Wii...

and now we know why MS didn't show unreal tournament either :P

All of them were boring, and the commercials in the middle of an important announcement on G4 just made it suck even harder. Sony was the least mediocre however.

Nintendo what have you DONE!!!!-Sora

Those conferences were so bad there were no winners.

Sony had the best showing...which isnt sayin much.

Other than Sony showing MGS4 killzone 2 and the only new IP of all 3 conferences....overall everything was lackluster

Lets:

Ms: Showing trailers some gameplay sceneit (which will failed miserably) and halo3.....ok oh and the framerate issue during the madden 08 showing was weak.

NInty: Shown everything we knew from the getgo and the Wii Fit( something that no one for fat gamers thinking they will lose waeight will use)...pretty much the worst of the e3

Sony: improved from last year (that's not saying much) show some trailers....and that was it...just trailers....Killzone was good but we saw taht last night and the new ip....good nothing special...

So far E3 sucks.

The conferences went as thus:

MS: Halo Halo Halo

Nintendo: Sales Montage Sales

Sony: Home Home Home

The big problem was that the "New E3" had nothing "New" in it. We had seen everything other then roughly one full game from each company (Viva Pinata minigame spinoff, Mario Kart Wii/Wii Fit, and Infamous). Nintendo barely spent any time on the games, MS showed only games we had already seen lots of, and Sony had no demonstrations at all, and barely spent any time on each game.

Worst E3 ever so far. All three conferences were just dire. Let's hope the show floor shows a lot more interesting stuff then green Xbox 360s from MS, endless pie charts from Nintendo and very slow walking in Home from Sony.

All of em sucked. And Sony's sucked the most. IT was boring and had nothing newsworthy.kolobus11

None were better than the other because they all sucked. Sony had boring games and overused Home, Microsoft demoed some cool games but announced some crap games, and Nintendo's was just crap.kolobus11

Nintendo = Failure of epic proportions

Microsoft = Boring rehash with mutiplatform titles

Sony = First Party excellence + home. Triumph

Werent they focused on games for the rest of this year....?

Sony's first party showings is the only reason it was the best in my eyes. Killzone looked awesome!

Nintendo's was the best, because it will likely bear the best fruit, Wiifit will be a huge seller, and will be huge on the news

Yeah because sales and media attention and mass appeal is what makes a great "game."

If Sony would have shown their statistic it would of made them look bad. This is why they stuck to games.

Sony in a way,was in a league by their selves and weren't.Out of the whole conference Sony actualy,if you think about it they may have showed alot of gameply and videos,director cuts.They were the only one's that got to the point really.
