The few remaining loyal lemming posts I've read have been filled with so much delusion and denial it's kind of sad. :(

Half of the others have gone underground to hibernate until the X2, while the othe half has thrown down their swords and yielded.

SW might become less of an entertaining place :?

E3 '06 was just as bad. And Twilight Princess flopping was kinda bad as well. Still, this is some epic ownage for the cows. MS is almost pulling a Ps3.. holy shit.

Lem is the new Sheep, 3-7 of them left on SW lol Cows domination is assured.silversix_
You realise hermits are still here? Its going to be a cow abattoir without the sheep and lems. Paid online, online passes, $60 games, no exclusives .... it'll be brutal.

Personally I don't think E3 has nearly the effect that people here thinks it does. Most the people who are going to buy these consoles have never heard of E3.

Not from my experience. Microsoft literally walked into Sony's punches, they were just asking for it by pulling all the crap they did.

It was hilarious at E3 though, the crowd went nuts while Sony was butchering Microsoft on stage.

It has never been this bad. This is something quite special. I feel bad for Microsoft but they did it to themselves. I think they will dig out of this mess at somepoint I would call this a teachable moment.

It was exactly like this after the $600 moment of the PS3 and the Wii was positively slaughtered for its lack of power.

What the XBots fail to understand is that this isn't about Fanboy or System Wars. It's about gamers vs corporate greed. I believe most lems from the Xbox 360 have been turned off by the Xbox One policy. Thus, the real gamers backlash. Anyone who is defending XBox One policy should be even ashamed to be called gamer but rather corporate greed apologists. Thus, there are lems who are defending the XBox One and lems who will side with PS4 in protest for this unecessary mandatory Kinect, controlled used game, and online check policy.

[QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"]Bad as this is, I think people are forgetting $599 US dollars and the giant enemy crab. You more or less couldn't post on here as a cow for about a year. If the E3 and launch weren't bad enough, they hyped every single year one game and every single one flopped one at a time. legalize82
ure damage control is absurd

HURR DURR ANYONE WHO SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT COWS EVER MUST BE LEMMING. Read like my last zillion posts pre and post E3 you clown.

E3 2006 -

$599

Giant enemy crabs

RRIIIIIIDDDGE RAAACER!

No rumble

Losing all those exclusives (which continued til 2008)

$599

 

Trust me, 2006 was much worse for cows. A LOT worse

Talking about lame damage control. Sure, take the past and use it to argue the failure of the present. At least PS2 was coming from being 1st. MS XBox is not even 2nd place and then they have this bad follow up.

Lol this isn't NEARLY as bad as what E3 2006 did to Sony. E3 2006 was so bad it killed E3. It almost killed Sony... think about it, PS2 went from dominate number 1 to PS3 which sold so poorly for the first couple years I was surprised it still existed.

Yeah, I do find it funny the biggest joke was everyone though Nintendo made enough Wii consoles that they would be easy to get. Ha, were we wrong.

I personally still don't think this is going to have much of an effect. The biggest thing Sony had going for it was the free online. Now that it's over I really don't know who going to win this.

I've been here around 10 years, and the answer is no. Nothing, including E3 2006, compares to the utter massacre we have just witnessed.

Does not neglect the fact that Microsoft was humiliated and still arrogant enough not to change course. On hindsight, PS3 survived that E3 2006, but it does not mean XBox One will survive like PS3 did. The scenarios are quite different. Casual games from mobile was not around back then.

Well, for the 2nd time, sheep are the secondary choice..AGAIN. Just chilling, watching the fireworks display and waiting to see which of Sony / MS choose Ninty as their secondary console lol.

Oh man, MIcrosoft can survive this with such ease, come on now lol. E3 2006 was really bad for Cows, and now E3 2013 is really bad for Lems. THEY ARE BOTH BAD lol.

They are on equal footing now though. It's no brainer cheaper will win. A more expensive console will not beat a cheaper console.

Not to mention the cheaper console is way more powerful than the more expensive one :lol:.

Skyward Sword was rated too high IMO, I played a few hours of it and I had to stop, the controls are f****ing BROKEN!!! That totally ruined the whole game! I was so disappointed especially because I LOVED TP on my Wii!

That is a rather surprising reveal, in past console wars at best the most powerful console was the same price as the weaker machine. This is a strange E3 and year with regards to the less money/more power situation.

More Power, less money, no broadband online only requirement, pro consumer with used/lending games...it seems the choice is easy if you are only going to buy one machine.

What he didn't reveal though is he isn't a PS guy nor is he an HDTV Bluray PS3 guy, he's a Nintendo guy with that also picked up a 360 mid gen. Situations like that are going to be interesting to see. Will we once again see conversions like we saw from PS2 to 360, or will the loyalty and marketing win overall?
