Well, E3 is over...whew! Now it is time for the real race to begin. Personally, the two companies that are best set are Microsoft and Nintendo. Both of these companies have something great to offer. For example, Nintendo has great new creativity on the way, while Microsoft has Halo 3 and more great XBOX Live fun on the way. Sony, on the other hand, tried to copy Nintendo (Ooonce again!) by showing off a "motion sensitive" controller at E3...gimicks and copies don't get you places Sony! Also, Sony's console is just way too expensive, that I can just see that so few people can buy it, that game developers will not develop for it.

In conclusion, Microsoft and Nintendo will have a great lifecycle (even if it means working together against Sony. there has been some rumor of that). Sony, on the other side, will have a long lifecycle ahead of them.
