12.05.06 e3 2006 wrap up
All in all, this E3 can be simply summarized: in one corner, you have two giants fighting each other with great graphics, processing power and PR. Their titles have simple but repetitive gameplay that requires much gaming skill. Both are selling their consoles at a loss, though their prices are still high for the consumer.
In the other corner there’s Nintendo, who put out a console with a controller that’s basically a stick you swing around. Everyone and their grandmother knows how to use a stick. It’s fun as soon as you pick it up. They forsake graphical realism for innovative games that can we developed quickly and cheaply. Their console will be half the price of the two others.
I think you know my opinion of who wiill wiin thiis one.
