True to an extent, but I can't imagine any company bar that wouldn't headline their own hardware with their own software, what kind of message does that send consumers whose primary concern with the system is Microsoft's shambolic handling of 1st party content over the last few years?

I really like that name. As long as it has a few titles I want and can play 360 games, I am down day 1.

Why? Third Party support is what makes or break a console.

To fit in with the cool kids here, could someone only xboxify my avatar? You'd make a resident Jew very happy.

Your username reminds me of a line on an older episode of American Dad I heard last night.
Or the Dreamcast

The last time I checked the final standings of our most recent generation, the console with the weakest 1st party support and what was considered the strongest third party support, currently stands in last place.
This too, holds for handhelds.

I would suggest you wait till E3 to see if the First/Third party selection is to your liking. Basing it off the reveal tomorrow will do you no favors.
Basic logic says, that tomorrow is suppose to be for the masses to let them know that their favorite BIG franchises are all going to be available for the this new Box.

Wrong, the PS3 first party support is fantastic.
The PS3 isn't in last place...
Where did you check?

It would be stupid for them to blow their load at an hour conference that's supposed to talk about mostly the system just a few weeks from E3. Sony reserved there's to 2 new exclusive ip's and two exclusive familiar ip's. If Microsoft only shows one or two exclusives that's ok with me. I want to know about the system and any new features or gamepay elements. If after E3 they still don't show many exclusives (of interest to me) then I will be concerned.

All is inside the tent.
Original thread had 1,000+ but was closed due to trolling, the following thread hit almost 20,000+ posts and this thread is at 2,400+ posts and the official thread isn't even up yet.
Yes it is.

Were there even any decent leaks prior to the PS4 conference?
Besides, after Orthgate they probably stepped up security quite a bit.

Since when?
I was under the impression the PS3 overtook the Xbox 360 not long ago, wasn't there a thread?

According to VG Chartz it is...but barely...Keep in mind though MS has a commanding lead in North America.
That's because Sony arnt giving clear numbers.

Wasn't official, it was a prediction post.
Different kind of cookie then? Haha
A prototype of the DS4 controller leaked before the conference. Also I believe the share button was leaked as well.
Your avatar is horrific 0_o

Not up yet. The reveal is tomorrow 10:00 PST. Also there will be a OT for the conference. This is only the (another) Hype Thread
I just recall leaked images and mock ups of the 360 being out there before the reveal. Probably nothing for the PS4 as there was no final hardware yet I suppose. Other than the controller.
Here is a blurry picture
I see what you did there
Here is a blurry picture
Ram stick leak?!?!?!

Xbox 1st party support isn't all that bad really, I mean in a business perspective. They only release a few games but most of them sell extremely good. Playstation has a lot of 1st party but it's more common to see them bomb than selling decently.
They also invest a lot in 3rd party support to have a lot of timed exclusives that although they seem insignificant, it gives the overall impression that it's the stronger platform.
