Weekend Confirmed 115 - E3 2012 predictions, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, Dragon's Dogma
by Garnett Lee, Jun 01, 2012 11:00am PDTE3 predictions! You love 'em! You hate 'em! You hate loving them? Whatever the case, The two Jeffs, and Insomniac's James Stevenson join Garnett to offer up plenty of forum fodder in anticipation of the big event next week. The crew tackles the big three--Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo--in the order of their respective press conferences. Does Xbox as a living room entertainment gateway give anyone goose bumps? Can Sony shake the Vita bottle hard enough to make a genie finally appear? Can Nintendo successfully answer "What would Mario do?" Of course, there's also time to talk some about the design plans for refining Diablo 3, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, and Dragon's Dogma before wrapping it up with Finishing Moves.

If they do not announce and demonstrate an online network that offers the same feature set and polish as Xbox Live and (to a lesser degree) PSN, it will be irrelevant.
More players will choose a game because of the online network their friends are on and how well it brings them together to play and compete. If Nintendo cannot steal people away from Xbox Live and PSN, then third party sales will continue to suffer and third parties will abandon the platform again.

Still beating the old drum of iPhone's and iPads taking the market. The argument that died about 4 months ago. The 3DS still out pacing it's sibling.
Sure they pissed off a ton of users say 1/4 overestimate but that still puts happy users at 65 million more than the other 2. Which pissed off user red rings and network outages, credit cards lost. So it's not uncommon to have some upset users now is it.
Yeah they lost money so did all of Japan look at Sony, the earth quake has had a very negative effect on the economy as a whole. But whatever your still baseing every thing on one bad year. Which take two publishing did without a earthquake, but is rockstar done. Give me a break.
