    So far I'd put Microsoft in first,Sony in second and Nintendo in last place by far. It could change though if Sony bring out one or two more shockers though.

    I'd agree with that order, and that's a wrap from Jack just now!!

    Not impressed with the lack of exclusives :/ All three companies get a big meh from me. It seems the big budget exclusive is dead.

    I'd give Sony the edge by a very small margin over Microsoft and Nintendo way back.

    If the trico trailer and PSP werent leaked, and they had first stab at the non-exclusives, it would have been a very entertaining 2 hours.

    Halo Reach? God of War 3? Uncharted 2? Metroid Prime Other M? Alan Wake?

    It's strange Sony didn't mention it though. I hope we get a definative by the end of E3 - the fanboy bitching on both sides are quite annoying.

    Yeh I'd say that helped with microsoft's conference although they'd still have come first in my books if they'd been on second or even third. Natal was better than the playstation motion thing and I prefered the games from microsoft except for God of War 3 and Uncharted 2. The new live features from microsoft were cool too.

    Anyway,I'll be hanging around the show today and tommorrow if anyone wants me to check out anything in particular,but not too late. I wanna go see if there's any hot gamer chicks in la tonight. :p

    Ah knew you were gonna say that hehe. I don't think Sony really brought anything to the table. It was cool seeing some of their big games but they'd been announced a while ago. I dislike Final Fantasy so that might have something to do with it.

    If it were exclusive you can bet all the money on earth Microsoft would have been shouting to high heaven about that fact.

    I found it funny that Kojima & Tretton re-iterated Kojima's involvement in the PSP installment & that it's a "true successor to the MGS series" as well as having the main development team on there, just to make sure Microsoft's effort didn't make PS fans sad and weepy

    Yeah but other than Uncharted 2 and the Last Guardian the others have no interest for me. Oh and I meant it for the PS3 conference. MS get the same meh from me and Halo holds no interest. Looks like they are going for the 'it's art!' approach while being utterly laughable again.

    I really want mario Galaxy 2, Zelda: Spirit tracks, GOW 3 and suprisingly The Saboteur which really impressed me.

    Although I can't imagine why Nintendo didn't show any footage from Zelda at their conference??

    Edit Oh and MGS: Rising too. I don't mind Raiden!

    When exclusive comes up in describing a console game it usually means only in terms of consoles, PC games get a look in as they arent the main competition of the PS3 and Xbox360.

    As for best game of the show, well the crowd at the Sony conference were loving every mention of Hannah Montana :p But I cant pick, far far far too many amazing games displayed over the past 2 days, I know for sure now that I am gonna get a PS3 before years end to try keep up.

    Okay super mario galaxy looks nothing new but I still want it because the first game was so amazing :) Love the mario and luigi and Golden sun games as well.

    Metroid looks very weird. Looks more like ninja gaiden than metroid. I think I'll like it.

    I think I'd put Nintendo in first place among the big three press conferences. A new Metroid, a new Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Bros. Wii. All sound great.
