Think Nintendo will have to bring their A game to up Sony's presence.
Unless they revealed something big after the NGP? I don't foresee the NGP, or Vita as they're calling it, doing much better than the PSP did before it, and I'm not really excited about it.

Other than that, Sly Cooper was announced, which is really cool for people with PS3's. Some gameplay of Uncharted was shown, but that had already been announced. I don't remember seeing anything else exciting. It seems like a lot of the footage they showed for games, like Resistance 3, was super generic and didn't highlight anything that was going to make that game exciting.

Dust looks like it has the potential to be cool, especially for Eve players. But again, footage was super generic.

Bioshock isn't an exclusive, and anything prefixed with Move- and 3D- was automatically unexciting.

Nintendo on the other hand is probably going to be announcing a brand new console that will do who knows what. They're going to be bringing a new Zelda. I've saw rumors of a new Wii Pokemon game (maybe another coliseum?).

I honestly can't argue with you, while I think their show was nicely paced and had a ton of great content, I honestly can't get that excited about a lot of Sony's franchises/exclusives.

They all seem so.. derivative, aside from like Uncharted

Its the same beef, I have with the PSV personally, great piece, sexy piece of tech, but outside of Uncharted all of the games either left me underwhelmed or made me wonder why I would purchase it over the console counter part.

That said, I do think they had a great show from a content point of view. They just need a surprise or two to push it over the edge.
