In your opinon, could MS win E3 if they get the Modern Warfare 2 beta? Rember the first Modern Warfare beta was exclusive to LIVE so if Infinity Wards shows a demo and at the end says" we are doing it again, Modern Warfare 2 will have a beta and will be excluisve to MS" if this was to happen do you think this would be enough in your opinion for MS to win E3? Or does MS have to have more ammo because from rumors and blogs, people are pointing that Sony  will win E3. What are your thoughts?

I wasn't aware that E3 was a competition.

The concept of winning E3 kinda cracks me up.

That said, yes, this would be a big win for X-Box. Though I am curious what the general breakdown of PS3 player base to 360 is, and if this would be less of a megaton and more of a common sense decision for Activision.

No. Because it would eventually come to the PS3 and PC as well... in it's full version.

E3 is an expo of all things gaming, not a who can pay off developers more competition.

No, they can have a good show if they announce new IPs, because I think I can say for the majority of us, we are tired of them "stealing" exclusive games. Especially ones nearly two years old by the time the game is released, again. I doubt an eventual MW2 Beta will be exclusive to one console, however.

@Pabs9: exactly. I was not surprised to see MS sucking off Bethesda and Rockstar for that "exclusive DLC". They have done it before and it filled the gap when they had no games coming.

Who would classify Bungie as truly 3rd party?  It's like saying Insomiac is 3rd party. Technically,yes, but everyone knows they're essentially 1s

Anyway-

1) Winning issubjunctive-- I'd value a new mistwalker game than call fo duty game
2) no, people only care about new games/ gameplay of things we haven't seen for the most part

Yes they would win E3. Sony and Nintendo would be eliminated from the show and next year E3 would be Microsoft exclusive.

Edit: Sorry if my answer is as stupid as your question.

I think Microsoft will win either way because of the awesome line of games coming out for the Xbox

1. Bungie, i  would put 1600 ms points are going to develop for PS3 before this generation is done ...i wont be shocked if they do something simple on the DS too
2. mistwalker really? both games they have done did poorly!
3. Insomiac IMO is 2 party, ala turn 10 for MS....they wont bite the hand that feeds

He was actually talking about the original Xbox. The ace up MS sleeve is developers revisiting the Xbox and making new, original, and outstanding games for it...

@Pabs9:

 Mass Effect 2
Lost Planet 2 (Originally Xbox Exclusive)
Bioshock 2 (Originally Xbox Exclusive)
Halo 3: ODST

Those 4 games are enough to warrant a win.

I don't think it would be a "win" for Microsoft to have the Modern Warfare 2 beta while the PS3 does not (and possibly but unlikely the PC version) on the wide scale. However it would definitely be a win for console fanboys who are into MW2, that's about it.

One key to winning this year would be to keep Duffy as far away from E3 as possible. No offense to the girl, I thought her song was alright and everything, but it's not suited to Microsoft's E3 audience at all. Also, don't spend 10 minutes demonstrating stupid games no one cares about like We're In The Movies!

Actually, that's a good point. All the good will and major announcements in the world won't change anything if they spend the healthy center of their presentation again doing casual "You're in the Movies 2" type stuff. That will take the lionshare of attention, unless there is some major demo for a game none of us see coming.

Hell no, a beta of a FPS game should not merit a major coup for any of these organisations nor will it. If past E3's are anything to go by far more important announcements and coups will be announced.
