Microsoft-Epic, but unoriginal.
Probably the biggest change of a console. Lots of new and neat stuff coming to LIVE. I seriously want a 360 for Christmas. But what's with copying off Nintendo's Miis and having a new menu that looks like a mix of the Wii and PS3 menus and the iTV menu? I guess that's the only way Microsoft can compete now.
Best game shown was probably Fallout 3. It's open world, over 100 hours of gameplay, unique lock system and a crapload of awesome weapons! Gears 2, and RE5 were pretty much some co-op.
As for the music games I thought Rock Band 2s list is pretty ba@$$! I'm worried GHWT won't be as good so I may have to switch the RB this time. Not much was really shown for GHWT.
The games for the camera look very fun and very family friendly so that gives Microsoft a big boost for the casual audience. And of course I can't exclude the epic ending.
Score-8/10
Nintendo-Animal Crossing, unique voice chat, and GTA DS... that's it.
Holy crap Nintendo is going to freakin' casual! This seemed more like a casual conference, hell it was more casual than last year! I doubt Sony could actually be just as bad!
So many possibiltys were ruined, all because Nintendo cares more about the casual audience and $! And still no memory solution which has been begged by 1000s of people!
All I know is, I'm definitaly getting AC Wii. Maybe Wii Sports Resort that looks pretty fun for parties.
Nintendo better show some good stuff before E3 ends or they'll eventually end up wth no hardcore audience at all! At least Pikmin 3 and a new Mario and Zelda were comfirmed. But if all of those big AAA games are delayed till 2010, and we have no other good hardcore games, then screw the Wii I'm switching to the 360.
Score-6/10
Sony-Getting better and better.
This actually I thought was the better out of the 3 companys. No copycat features from the other consoles, lots of at least good games, and big surprise that the video section for PSN was starting that same night! Best games were MAG, Resistance 2, Resident Evil 5, LittleBigPlannet, and Killzone 2. MAG I'm looking forward to the most because it's online is a major feat in gaming history and will be awesome...hopefully.
Score-8.5/10
