"VR Fishing" did amazingly.
I guess.
Who knows if the sarcasm is playful banter or thinly veiled scorn.
Based on GAF alone people mocked it but appreciated it.
Square Enix really gambled here.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Microsoft "won" E3 2016 in Brandwatch's report too:
Didn't help a lot then...
Yeah I never trust these things. They're always heavily slanted towards Microsoft, and don't state how they're filtering out non gaming Microsoft news of the week.

It's a casual game like fifa or cod for people who are quite happy with that sort of thing
Dude. Go back into the GAF MS thread. So many of us missed it even though we were looking out for it thanks to Keighly helping MS with the controlled leak.
Phil announced the price but unlike every other presser in history they didn't display the price visually. He also announced the price after a hype inducing game trailer. MS neatly and masterfully controlled the negative reaction.

Surprised Evil Within so high and god of war so low.

Why? I'd imagine most mentions are; Xbox Exclusive LOL 4k X.

It's like when WWE say something is trending on Twitter and you look at the trend and its all negative 😂
And the best game of the show Matterfall didn't even make the list. That's sad.

ever heard about hashtags? #XboxE3
and Sony has also more than just gaming.
these things are correct. they show social media impressions / mentions.
that's it
GOW didn't really have a gripping showing. It was a bunch of moments stitched together with Kratos killing a lot of people then a big snake. Evil Within and Wolfenstein told a visual story(I may say they told too much) but their trailers were much better put together to get a random person interested

Nah it's no different than posting this and saying MS lost. It's a bunch of bollocks

who said anything about winning or losing?
certainly not me.
it's presented data.
just because people make stupid assumptions about it, does not make the data invalid or incorrect

I assumed you meant 'MS won E3' as correct, when you said 'they are correct'
Which is why I called bollocks

No wonder they wanted to do their conference on Sunday.
Looking for next year to be the same

I think the majority of those picking up an XB1X in November will also pick up Assasins Creed Origins, FM7, Destiny 2, SWBF2, Madden, and NBA.
And they also don't seem to consider positive/negative separately (and yes, I know the saying)

People had already seen God of War, so there wasn't much to discuss beyond the 2018 release date. Spider-Man at least had a gameplay demo that pissed people off. GoW was just forgettable.

Assassin's Creed is a sure thing on launch day for many people I'd presume.

Overall, Ubisoft had a great year this E3.
Don't know how to feel about Matroid.
Dragon Ball has been on the rise internationally since Dragon Ball Super. So I wouldn't be surprised.

Metroid is fucking BACK.
Honestly, I'm sorta glad they waited this long to make a new Prime game, because it just made the announcement all the more exciting. Metroid fans were convinced (rightfully so) that the series would be left behind by Ninty like poor F-Zero.

not yet bro. they still have 3 to 5 years left to ride the Ps4 train
after that it's all Microsoft and Nintendo
It was just fans jumping to conclusion since Other M came out in 2010 and Federation Force was 2015. Regardless of how you feel about the quality of those games, that is far more than F-Zero got after its last game since Nintendo bothered to try a spin-off with Matroid that fans proceeded to bitch about.

How many of those mentions were "Lol $500!!" ?

Isn´t NeoGAF currently heavily slanted towards Sony, so the reality should be found somewhere in between?

...Oh how the fanboys would like that. MS would love that 1st party IP. Nah, Sony/Playstation is and will be alright.
I feel like looking at searches of "Xbox" and "PlayStation" would take care of that.

Pretty much. Most of the content and interviews I watched showed positivity towards the MS conference and the Xbox one X. On here however people were saying it was dead in the water and Sony having Spider-Man alone meant they would win E3 and that was before they'd even had their conference!
Just goes to show you, like all things, never get your information from one source.

that's a pretty poor methodology description... what constitutes a brand mention? just the brand, any tag with the brand name in it? any product mention associated with the brand? which acronyms were included?
i would assume MS being focused more on a product would include more MS-based tags where with Sony and Nintendo showing more focus on games their tagging would mostly include just games... e.g. it'd be redundant for most Super Mario tags to also include Nintendo; at best games like GOW would probably include a tag such as PS4, not Sony.
MS had the best brand showing IMO so I'd wager they still received more mentions. but I mean, really, that methodology is not very clear... is there a different section somewhere? or is it 'proprietary' hhh

Its also still fairly niche in the west, and most certainly hasn't even been a thing in the west for non-Wii/3DS gamers for damn near a decade. FFVII actually redefined a lot about it's genre and came at a very different time, MHW doesn't redefine anything and comes in a time where it can get buried by AAA games.
The controversy is surrounding MHXX.

Completely expected result for the methodology used:
They only used Twitter
They only tracked English-language tweets
Overwhelming majority of Xbox userbase is in English-speaking countries
Xbox press conference was at a somehwat reasonable time for all major English-speaking countries
Xbox press conference had a huge hashtag on screen throughout the whole show
Xbox press conference dominated in quantity, in both the length of the show and number of things shown
etc.
