Videogameszone made a summary of all three press conferences of E3 2010. The winner is ...
The latest Switch firmware update kills off support for the Elon Musk-owned social media company.
After having to prove itself for years, Xbox doubled down and pulled it off..
Yep Xbox absolutely knocked it out of the park with that stunning show, it was everything a gaming showcase should be, games games and games, well done team Xbox.
It really did. Like I came out of that with the hype for new games I haven’t felt since… well the better years of E3.
It was without a doubt one of the better showcases in years. There was plenty there that excited me. Something has been lacking in years on all platforms
It was an amazing showcase I loved everything about it. Can't wait to play some of those games.
What's going on. 4 comments & no negatives yet. Wow, what's going on with N4G.
Show was so good, it made me forget about that blue dragon rumor until the next day. Too many games to process.
Shahmeer from eXputer: "The new Xbox strategy to go multi-platform could eventually change console gaming as we know it, and I am concerned."
Can we stop pretending that Xbox has any great influence over the console market?
All they can do is try and steer their own Destiny. They have very little to do with what the other players in the console market are doing.
And yes, going 3rd party is pretty much their only option and is good for them.
We need to stop pretending like Xbox matters and has any influence in the industry.
By entering the industry, Microsoft made it worst, everything bad in the industry can be tied to them (like paid online and DLCs). The industry would be better off if they had never been in it.
Before you say Sony would have no competition, they would still have PC and Nintendo. As they are right now, Microsoft are not competition, they don't actually matter.
I think in Xbox’s direness it is, but let’s not pretend like they don’t understand the value of exclusiveness to their platform. Not every damn Xbox game is coming to PS5 and the stuff that has hit have either been GaaS games or games that didn’t exactly sell gamgbusters and are extremely niche.
When Halo, Gears, Forza, Perfect Dark, Fable, etc. start coming to PS5 then that’s pretty massive and also diminishes any reason to own an Xbox.
It's the only decision. Hardware sales are on a sharp decline and Game Pass growth has stagnated.
Well aside from the fact we have like 30 of these articles on the main page already...
Gamers win, obviously, that has to be said first and foremost.
And as a gamer, for me personally, I was most impressed with Nintendo. Why? Because I expected the least from them. I was most disappointed with MS, because I expected MORE from them. And I knew what to expect from Sony and because of that I got what I want (Twisted Metal, LBP2, iNFamous 2, K3, Move), and some things I didn't (which hopefully will be revealed at TGS or GDC, Versus, TLG, and Agent mainly).
I can't speak for everybody, but I think most people are in agreement. With that said, I do know some people enjoyed Nintendo by a country mile, Sony by a country mile, and I know of some people who even genuinely was impressed with MS. Everyone is entitled to their opinion because E3 is about impressing the gamer. But for me, that's how I saw it.
I'm now looking forward to both the PS3 (always have) and Wii (surprisingly). Man do I wish I had a Wii right now.
Nobody "wins." It isn't a contest, it's different companies showing their products. You may LIKE one conference more than another but you can't "win" E3. I hate gaming journalism.
Nintendo. 7_7
Nintendo A
Sony A-
MS
D+
Hard to say who won just due to the fact many can say Nent. won due to games but Sony still has a crap load more anyway just chose to show new stuff and make new announcement. After TGS and Games Con when they all have a chance to get everything in the open then I can decide.
If Sony would have did the price drop at E3 last year they would have hands down won but that was shown off later in the year and was the biggest single announcement of 2009 so anything like that could happen for the big 3 this year yet.
But for E3 if I had to pick? Nintendo. Sony I'd say yes to if PSN+ is what I think it is going to be. And I want to see how this Steam support pans out. Also if that coke deal pushes move then it will be a major deal.
