2.1 - Losing FF 13 hurts Sony but doesn't really help MS.
As we saw with GTA 4 multiplat releases do nothing for hardware sales. So the only thing MS did was slow sales of PS3 hardware the month FF13 is released in the US and Europe. Spending gobs of money to slow the competition is a questionable move.
BTW don't know if some of you caught the 1up Yours E3 Special but Shane said expect something from Square in two weeks at their show in Japan related to Advent Children that will shift the momentum back to the PS3. If that announcement is a remake of FF 7 then that negates any traction MS got with FF 13. People who love FF will still have to get a PS3 if they want to play the remake of the most revered game in the series.

Actually it was only a blow when it was first announced.
By the next day I was done with it. I'm still getting to play the game, so it really isn't a big deal.
There's also a huge load of other great 100% exclusive titles coming to the PS3 so it really isn't that serious.
Square's event is within a few weeks and TGS is only 3mths away, more will be revealed then.
Hopefully there'll be some great surprises. :)
By the way tor.davis, you're really short :\

Losing exclusive like gta4 or ff13 does hurt console. May be Gta iv didn't directly impact on xbox or ps3 sale but it definitely did. at least 5% of xbox owner who brought gta iv would have brought ps3 to play gta iv and same goes to ff13.

Oh...lol
You're the camera man?
Also to add to what n4gzz said. People seem to forget GTAIV sold more copies per system on the PS3 than the 360.
By the time FFXIII rolls out, that space between the two consoles won't be as wide, so you do the math.

Read my post again. I said it does hurts Sony. But it doesn't help MS sell any more consoles. As far as I can tell we are in complete agreement.

A little assistance for you. Learn mic control. Don't have it in no man's land when you are talking. And if you can't get a good gain mic that can pic up people's voices then learn to mix the sound later to even out the quality. You made Patch sound like he was whispering though your (for the most part) hiphop rap style mic control allowed you to be heard.
If you are going to try and be a journalist then at least get the proper equipment and learn how to use it. Just a thought.
Also, try not to wear your emotions on your sleave during an interview. If you want to make comments after then that is fine, but during an interview try to not look like he just kicked you in the balls with his answers. You had me rolling with your expressions.... ROTFL

get back to the 'generic' interview style like Legion said *rolls eyes* Make sure you lose the slang and show zero emotion like the politicians and countless news reporters. Only then will people like Legion have anything positive to say;)

emotions and expressions is what makes the hiphopgamer unique and entertaining.
as for the mic thing patcher kept talking after hiphop though he was done but you notice that he trys to get the mic back to patcher right away. honest mistake and i see all journalist do that. its no problem really but im sure hip hop pays attention to you guys comments and takes notes and learns from his mistakes- even the minor ones that you pointed out.

7 - You guys must have been under the influence of...
subjective thinking.
As a Writer I form my most educated opinion in the
open zone>>>>>>&g t;>>>>>>>& gt;>>>>>>
Does mr. Pachter feel he Is directly responsible
For m$ loss?
was he a bit too critical? He must repent his
guilt.
its because of him hardcore underground gamers
are bailing out of the vicious red ring cycle.
mr. Pactor or whatever , stop analyzing g a y porn & conform
to avatars & imitation gimmicks.
xbox360 was a fad. Get over it. Never again Not even on ps3 will
gamers spend as much as they did before.
Gamers will have to come to a desicion.
get supported or give support for high quality consoles.
2 party devs need to know!

I personally would rather see Hip Hop Gamer make predictions about consoles sales than Michael Patcher.
1. It would be entertaining
2. It would be entertaining
3. It won't be Michael Patcher

It's a nice and humanitarian thing to do by Michael Pachter to spend time with the mentally challenged.
"It Spiiins! Spin it again Michael Patssher! Hey Michael! I have a question for you! Enough with Microsoft!? Please mention Sony so I can get excited and do more damage control!"
Pachter thinking: "The poor thing has got ADD and probably got bullied a lot as a child, guess I'll spin it some more..."

Pachter seemed a tad condescending. Almost like he was enjoying shooting down ol' buddies aspirations like skeet. Me, personally, thought ol' buddy did a decent job with this interview. I'd have asked a few different questions, myself but that's just me.
I'd have definitely asked if his shirts ever come with a bowl of soup, that's for sure.

I felt MS lacked in performance.
MS only showed multiplatform games and tried to pass it off as their own.
ex.) Fall Out 3, Call of Duty 4, Resident Evil 5, etc.
Yeah they had a Gears 2 demo pretty cool.
FFXIII announcement did surprise everyone but in a way if you really think about it MS has the bad end of the deal.
Reasons: FFXIII 360 is a bad idea?
1.) Square Enix confirmed that they don't start production for the 360 until after the PS3 Version comes out.
If the PS3 Copy comes out 2009 and it takes 1 year to make a port then that means the 360 copy of FFXIII won't come out until 2010.
2.) FFXIII for the 360 won't come out in Japan so they don't gain any ground in Japan with the 360.
3.) Lastly if your a true FF Fan.
-Are you gonna wait for the FFXIII copy like you should of been doing for the PS3 or wait even longer to get for the 360 just because it's cheaper?
People will buy it day one for the PS3 then after a year of playing it and beating the game.
Do you really think people will care about the game anymore?
Like I said all of the fans will jump to the PS3.
Nintendo did show some really cool games.
Wii Sports Resort
Animal Crossing
Wii Music
etc.
But they failed to please the hardcore gamer.
Sony showed the most at E3.
Why?
More variety of games between the hardcore and the casual gamer.
Free services.
etc.
I still thought it was bad that Sony waited until after the conference to show all their announcements when they should of been doing at from the beginning.
Too much talking of the PS2.- No more.
What I think made Sony win E3?
Obviously that new Killzone 2 Multiplayer.
God of War 3
MAG
Resistance 2
Little Big Planet
Flower
etc.
In the end Sony showed more variety and diversity with their games while the rest only stuck with one side and not both.
ex.) MS catered too much to the hardcore gamer and not the casual gamer and Nintendo was too casual with no hardcore games to be shown.
E3 2008 was basically a 2 hour show of each company showed games we have already seen.
My Rating of E3 2008.
7 out of 10 (Average)
Other conferences will make up for this one but this show really failed.
Sony saved E3 from being a total flop in my opinion.
Cuz they showed new games the other companies like Nintendo and Microsoft just showed the same old thing.
