Sony 9/10

MS 6.5/10


Nintendo 3.5/10

 

[SparkTR]

They were all pretty bad, they kind of killed my enthusiasm for next gen.

 

[JHall]

Microsoft's conference was overall better. But Sony slayed the competition in the last 15 minutes of theirs.

 

[MoogleWizard]

Sony: 7.5/10
Nintendo: 6.5/10
Microsoft: 1/10

None of them showed enough interesting new games.

 

[Westlo]

Sony: 8/10
M$: 6/10
Nintendo: 5.5/10 (and you can thank Bayonetta 2 and X for getting that much)

 

[Majukun]

for the big three

number of announcements

1)microosft
2)sony

[ULTROS!]

Surprised by how down everyone is on the Nintendo conference. Everything looked great? Was a little safe, for sure. But still.

What surprising titles could have beaten the announcements of Dead Rising 3 exclusive, Insomniac exclusive, and especially KH3 and FFXV?

 

[Yawnier]

1. Sony
2. EA
3. Microsoft
4. Nintendo or Ubisoft (tie)

 

[RPGCrazied]

Sony = 20/10 | They had Final Fantasy 15, Kingdom Hearts 3. No DRM and only $399!
Microsoft = 2/10 | $499, DRM and used game blocking, games I don't care about.
Nintendo = 7.5/10 | but only for X and Super Smash Brothers. Sure Windwaker HD is cool, but its nothing new. Where is dat new Zelda Wii U game?

 

[zainetor]

seriously I dont get all this ps4 full scores. It's fucking insane that they showed nothing more than microsoft, but you are praising them just because no dmr.

 

[Shadowninja100]

Sony > EA > Nintendo > Microsoft > Ubisoft

 

[methane47]

In terms of Structure
Microsoft killed it beginning to End. GAME after GAME after GAME. This is how i want ALL gaming conferences to be like.

In terms of Value/Weight/Worth
SONY KILLED IT, The bombs were big and heavy.

 

[shinra-bansho]

In terms of actual conference presentations:
Microsoft won.

In terms of the aftermath:
Sony, easily.

 

[AngryMoth]

Sony > Microsoft > Nintendo

Very close call between the 3, could easily have put them as equal in fact. MS delivered on games while sony didn't, but sony delivered on policies and most importunity, price. Nintendo may actually have had the most exclusives I'm interested in (Mario, Bayonetta, Wonderful 101 and X), but the Wii U desperately needs a price cut and the Retro thing was a huge let down. Don't know where to put EA and Ubisoft in the rankings since its tough to compare excitement for a publisher vs a console but EA was waaay better than Ubi

 

[ezodagrom]

Sony - 4/5, would have been 5/5, but, the first half wasn't really interesting.
Nintendo - 3/5, almost no surprises, expected more from them.
Ubisoft - 3/5, some nice games, some bad games, too many bad jokes.
EA - 2/5, a few games, sports, sports, sports, sports, and a few more games.
Microsoft - 2/5, the games seem like just more of the same, they didn't address their ridiculous policies, and...$499

 

[JWong]

Sony > EA > Ubisoft

Other companies are irrelevant.

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

1. Mega Man
2. Sony
3. Microsoft

 

[iamvin22]

Sony> microsoft> did nintendo even show up?

 

[T.O.P]

Sony 8
Microsoft 8
EA 6
Nintendo 4

Didn't watch Ubi

 

[DemonNite]

whichever conference showed OCTODAD

 

[RkOwnage]

Sony > Nintendo > Microsoft for me

 

[SuperSonic1305]

As someone who is getting tired of nothing but shooters the only correct answer is

Sony > Nintendo > Microsoft.

 

[thuway]

How do people have Ubi last when they showed so much?

Sony>MS>Ubi=EA>>>>Nintendo



So are you rating MS' press conference or policies? Because their conference was actually very good compared to years past...

I should clarify. I am totally pissed off at their aversion of talking about "always online" or "used games". The games, while some look good, I am more interested in the PlayStation offerings. As a show however, MS had the best tempo out of all the conferences.

 

[Diprosalic]

Sony == Nintendo > Microsoft

Nintendo showed the games I wanted.

Sony showed the console I wanted.

Microsoft showed nothing I wanted.

that's about it.

 

[dragonelite]

Based on conference alone and not console politics.
Microsoft hands down nothing can beat Halo 5 60fps and dedicated servers.
Second would be Ubisoft dat Division.
That does not say im going to buy a xbone.

If im was going to take console politics into it.
Then sony No DRM(was not a issue for me privacy was more the issue), cheaper price point and i can life with multi psn+ only.

But nothing really jumped and said i need to get next gen consoles day one to me.
So im upgrading pc and wait for price drop on ps4 or when halo 5 drops and i like their multiplayer direction.

Yeah
MS > sony > Ea / Ubisoft

[m0t0k1]

Nintendo by a small margin but overall disappointing presentations by all of them.

N: 6.5
S:6.0
M:5.0

didn't see Ubi or EA.

 

[Foshy]

Sony > MS >> Ubi > EA > Nintendo

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

[Leflus]

for the big three

number of announcements

1)microosft
2)sony
3)nintendo

for the "making me wanna buy your console"

1)sony
2)nintendo
3)microsoft

While I think I would swap Nintendo with Microsoft in your second list, I agree with your overall train of thought.

MS' conference was awesome, but the DRM shit has definitely put a dampener on my hype for the machine.

 

[Barry Burton]

They were all pretty solid, I thought.

 

[Kos Luftar]

1. Sony
2. YouBeSoft
3. EA
4. Microsoft

Didn't watch Nintendo because I have zero interest in their consoles or games.

 

[Averon]

MS: 4/10 (Shitty DRM still stands)
Sony 9/10 (MP behind a paywall prevented it from getting a 10/10 from me)
Nintendo: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! This company is fucked.

 

[Yasir]

Just on games:

Microsoft > Sony > Nintendo


Taking into account overall effectiveness:

Sony >> Microsoft >> Nintendo

.

 

[MDSLKTR]

Sony was legendary.
MS delivered on the games, too bad the console is attached to it.
Didn't watch nintendo, didn't care but seems to have disappointing announcements.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

1. Sony
2. Nintendo
3. Microsoft

EA and Ubi shouldn't have bothered. Boring as usual.

 

[genjiZERO]

No one really impressed me games-wise. More of the same - pessimistic science fiction, dystopias and bro shooters. But my preferences aside Sony clearly wins for the better value and not trying to cheat consumers. Nintendo just kinda meh. I don't play EA or Ubisoft games so I didn't watch their conferences.

 

[Danny 117]

Ubisoft: 9/10
Microsoft: 8/10
Sony: 8/10
EA: 7/10
Nintendo: 6/10

Solid E3.

 

[Camp Lo]

Sony = 9/10
Microsoft = -1/10
Nintendo = 3DS/10
