Ok guys just want to see who everyone thinks "won" E3 this year just from the conferences.
For me it was MS just so many awesome games but the best of all CRACKDOWN2!!!!! oh and Forza 3 should get a mention it looks reallyyyyyyyyy good.

In my opinion all 3 were good and have games that I must get, I really can't decide who had the best one. But Nintendo had the most boring one, until they announced Galaxy 2 and the new Metroid.

For me it was Microsoft. While Sony had a great showing, the games they had on offer don't really interest me as much as what the 360 showed (Crackdown 2 kicks everyone's arse), although it was a very close game and really the two were very similar in their reveals. Nintendo I found unfortunately lags behind, it was good but compared to the other two keynotes it lacked games, and it lacked a truly "shocking" announcement (though Golden Sun came pretty close).

I’d say Microsoft based solely on Crackdown 2.
Cause… fuck yeah Crackdown 2.

It's not over yet? Isnt there more to go? Pretty sure on the IGN site they have a run down of what is still to come?
Anyway not overly impressed with any of it really...what is really that new? fucking sequels! that's not new!
Crackdown 2, Assassins Creed 2, FFXIV, Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid, MGS fuck knows what, Halo....while all epic titles nothing new kinda shits me..
Motion Control? just copying each other really....
Malibu Stacy Syndrome...change something a tiny bit add something a little new everyone wants it...
Where's the option for Gamers won?

It's good to see gaming for the next year will be healthy for all 3 consoles. Thought M$ did very well again this year, announced some excellent titles. I thought they had the best and strongest showing. Sony had it's best year in a long time and have some killer stuff on the way. Too many leaks though, kind of kills the shock value. I don't know why they announced the new PSP before the show. Nintendo clearly are a company trying to make two crowds happy. I would have preferred something more then a Mario game, but hey, it's Mario still 2x.
Hopefully Sony have something awesome to announce for the MEGATONNE thing still. Oh we have Fable's old Peter to show something for M$ too.
Happy with new Halo game, Metal Gear Solid titles, FFXIV.
It's a good time to be a gamer!

From the news I've seen on the net, no one won.E3 this year seems like it was boring.
But my excitement for video games these days isn't very high.I barely even bother reading up on upcoming video games anymore.
The Turtles in Time remake was pretty cool though.

Ubisoft.
Out of the big 3, I'd say Microsoft>Sony>Nintendo.

The "announcement" was a leak, not much you can do about it. It was still a big reveal, even if it did come before E3.
I think Sony had the best conference. The new motion sensor looks excellent, Uncharted 2 is kickass, MGS: Peace Walker looks great, God Of War is sweet. Bring it on!

for me, Microsoft.
maybe it's just because i haven't had time to dissect the information that came out of the Sony and Nintendo conferences, but to me, it seemed that Sony had the weakest show this year. i mean, they showed off some great stuff, but to me, e3 is about showing new games, not showing new trailers of games we already know about, and i think for this reason, Microsoft were the winners this year.
i do find it amusing to think back that one of the big news items for me was MGS: Rising, which was shown at the MS show, meaning i probably see the MS show more favourably, yet i'm planning on getting it on PS3.
on the hardware front: nothing shown really did anything for me. i don't really care about new motion control, or vidcap peripherals at this stage until i can see how they make games better, and at this point, they're all mostly gimmicks for me.
biggest disappointment: no HL2 Episode 3.

As much as I want to say Nintendo, Microsoft had the best E3, probably because they released some anticipated stuff (Alan Wake, Halo: ODST etc), some surprises (Left 4 Dead 2, Halo: Reach, Metal Gear Solid: Rising etc), and a hellava lot of reasons to keep using your 360 (Facebook access, music downloads etc).
Sony came a VERY close second, most possiply because of games like Gran Turismo 5, some cute LittleBigPlanet news (Jack Sparrow costumes!!!), Uncharted 2, Agent, and oh, yeah...F****ING GOD OF WAR 3. Why are they second, you ask? Well, their announcement of 1:1 motion sensing, after we had known about Wii motionplus for some time now, and making the new PSP look like a Mobile Phone is just...wierd to me.
Nintendo, although it was vastly better than last year, was still pretty lackluster. Sure, the Metroid: Another M trailer rawked, and New! Super Mario Bros. Wii will undoubtedly sell one million billion zillion copies, as will Wii Sports Resort, I just think that they could have revealed something much more amazing that a sequel to Galaxy (like F-Zero. Where is it?) or Wii Fit plus.
Biggest dissappointment of the show? I have a couple;
1. No new Dune or Half-Life.
2. All the gorramn sequels. We need more unique IPs please.

EDIT: Dammit, beaten to the sequels punch...

Microsoft for me, as they announced new games and had shocking moments. Sony I think have the best line-up but I have heard all their games already and the games they did announce aren't interesting to me (mmo's and a LBP style game) plus I don't care about GO at all. Nintendo did better than last year however why do they keep going over the same franchises.
I think a better question would be what is the best trailer?
My favourite was the Star Wars MMO, best lightsaber fight ever

Sony did way better this year, which is a relief, but they came out worse being after MS, which dulled the effect of their motion control (good, but less flashy than the MS one) and Metal Gear PSP, which was more boring than Rising. Trico was leaked, PSP Go is pricey and has a smaller screen, and no ps3 price drop or slimness 
Nintendo had the best bombshells: Golden Sun DS and Team Ninjatroid, no rumours or leaks about those! Nothing much else though, Mario games will be fun but ultimately rehash Galaxy and NSMB.
Microsoft had the most solid lineup though, and they had trendy motion control and social networking things too.
Most competitive E3 for years!

Microsoft was the only keynote that had anything I'm interested in but I'm excited for a Team Ninja, Nintendo thing (Will the new Metroid have an age Slider?). I'm finding it amusing that Sony still hasn't have any exclusive that's drawn my attention.

I'd say this year has been very heated from all sides. But man, sequels were EVERYWHERE for all three. Nintendo's conference was the worst offender. As much as I hate to say, I'm not excited for Super Mario Galaxy 2. And when Nintendo show off new games, they act all casual like we know it already and quickly move on. No. More info please. Sony's motion... thing, was expected. Nothing new or exciting for me. Alan Wake trailer made me cringe like there's no tomorrow... ewwww.
Still, it's better then last year's.

Too early to tell, and I'm waiting for a good quality download of all the shows to come out still, (only got to watch most of the Microsoft one, missed out on Natal though).
From what I did see of the Microsoft one though, I wasn't really impressed, had much more enjoyment from the EA presentation.

According to a few press outlets Sony have their major E3 announcement saved for tomorrow morning. Although Sony won E3 the second the Uncharted 2: Among Thieves stage demo started. I could not believe my eyes.

From what I've read myself I honestly think it was a pretty even E3 for everyone. It was a definite improvement on last year from each of the big three and hopefully there will be more to follow. As far as keynotes go it seems that Nintendo is probably at the bottom but overall I can't honestly split them.

I'm just so happy that Sony, Nintendo and M$ are pumping out so much quality and there is so much on offer. It's soooooo much better then it was 3 years ago.

Replace 'Microsoft' with 'Nintendo' and 'Crackdown' with 'Super Mario Galaxy' and... yeah. That would be mine. To hell with everything else, as cool as it may be.
