The E day is coming closer and just some hours left until the first conference. Microsoft will open the Electronic Expo with a galore of games to show, at least if we believe in Phil Harrison. The Xbox chief stated that Microsoft would focus on games at E3 14.
Sony promised to offer a different E3. I hope they meant tons of games. I am not confidence with profits, numbers and bragging about the PlayStation 4 sells around the world. We want games, we are insatiable.
