Maybe Microsoft will admit finally that graphically and purely system wise they have been bested by PS3 (accept of course there online system still works, that's something to boast about). Now I say this with great affection for Microsoft. I am even looking at purchasing Microsoft stock but let's be real about this. The PS3 is far superior in the game engine (meaning capability), has a 3d Blu-rAy and 3d games, heck just even has a blu-ray got my Mom to buy one. All around the PS3 is a better system (aside from the controllers).
I do actually love Microsoft though and am a supporter. I would like to hear them say that they are starting over and next year they will have the biggest baddest gaming machine ever built. And a handheld wouldn't hurt either. Come on Microsoft, the Sony has one coming out, Nintendo released theirs. Where's your contribution to this handheld party. |

Microsoft has the technology, the means, and should have the will to make a dedicated gaming handheld device. They are loosing money by not having one. They could do so much better. Maybe they are just waiting for results of the NGP to come in. |

what about the new dashboard coming out later this year? Youtube and live t.v. among other stuff, i think the microsoft conference was pretty good, granted not everything looked amazing but some of it was pretty darn cool, and anyone who thinks it was all garbage is obviously just a fanboy and should gtfo, all consoles are good in their own way and there is no need to bash what you yourself dont like cause thats just ******ed and you need to grow up.

I did like the Ghost Recon Kinect part when he was customising the weapons, that was pretty cool (very Minority Report). But then even that was spoilt when the guy went in-game with a pretend weapon, looking like a hunchback and aiming like Mr Magoo.

So, I didn't watch the press conference, but let me see if I get this right. Microsoft basically showed of a bunch of games we knew about, a few with Kinect functionality, and a new Halo trilogy. That's pretty bad. Honestly, they didn't give me a good reason to pick their console over another, unless you like Halo. And I'm sure the fans are ecstatic, but I just don't care for it myself. Thumbs down.
Although Minecraft Kinect sounds sweet; I'll give them that. |

That was boring. Incredibly boring. Probably worse than 2010's performance. Shove a bunch of Kinect gimicks down our throats and then play it safe by giving us a Halo game we weren't really asking for. Incredibly disappointed.
Here's hoping Sony and Nintendo have something better for us. |

fail conference
so ironic that those on this forum who stereotype wii as 'motion waggle garbage' are not here up in arms about kniect fail. seens to me the wimote has buttons and actually works without lag. kinect is horrible! and most was just voice control - ms - you already HAD headsets. so much for ms being hardcore - blows my mind how advertising influenced forum opinions are - this is so hypocritical... nintendo is gonna pwn e3 this year - i mean utterly pwn it. sony has the alabatros of psn and move is a big yawn in the motion race. cafe fever - get a cup of joe its gonna be along night tomorrow.... |

We don't complain about the Kinect because everyone here knows that there's nothing good going for it now. We'd be preaching to the choir.
And hey, I consider the conference a success if I get some good shops/gifs out of it. Courtesy of GAF: ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Eh, I think it is a big double standard - notice how you said 'we' dont complain
I think everyone should post their own opinions based on their own prefernces. but i just see a lot off ppl waiting for someone to tell them how to think or react - ussually a site like IGN or something. or a 'popular' agressive forum poster i try to have some wii topics here and the anit wii lynch mob is up in arms and trolls the topic pretty hard. well i m sorry - but where are they now? kinect is less responisve and useful than the original wiimote. the software is lackluter or bonus modes in existing games. most of the cames are cash in on successful nintendo ideas. for me to promote kinect would be like for me to get excited by cash in tripe like carnival games or deca sports - i cant do it. and ms - you should be able to do better. you have all the advantages but such limited vision and such poor execution. but as long as you keep buying games add for game mags and interent sites i guess you will keep the popular opinion.... where is the sound and fury???? |

well one thing about nintnedo
they have more franchises their franchise have more variety they sequelize less than the other big companies they MAKE the games that MS is now trying to copy they make more new ips than anyone else. reall if you hate big budget gaming, nintendo is like your favorite company - they are so much fresher. ms is like a dude in a suit crunching numbers like an insurance adjuster trying to find the most money to suck out of a game franchise - price x reiterations per generation to the power of game subscriptions and pay dlc / growing disinterest + cash in sales dissolution > massive advertising budget (we hope) |

Obviously, I speak for myself. Not some four year old kid who loves him some Elmo.
I've played Gears, I've played Halo, and I don't want to play with the spotty Kinect. There's no 360 exclusive I want to play this year, and that puts them in third place for me. |

Did Microsoft ultimately have a bad E3...most likely, but mainly because they keep popping out the same "big boy" games over and over again with little to no changes. |

I was a bit surprised by the MS press conference. I was expecting there to only be Kinect and while i was expecting Gears 3 i had seen plenty of it already but i still enjoyed seeing some more of it more than i thought i would, i was also expecting the Halo Anniversary HD remake thing but i wasn't expecting Halo 4 to be announced so that caught me by surprise.
I would say it was overall a good press conference that surpassed my expectations but it wasn't great. Although maybe it was just that i am so excited that E3 is here that any E3 news will make me happy. |
