During the recently concluded E3, the biggest battle that happened is between giants Microsoft and Sony. From the biggest titles that they are going to release, news to the upcoming updates and news of what they are offering, name it, they are going at it, IGN reported.

The rivalry of the two consumer electronics manufacturer giants stemmed out sometime ago when the two decided to release their game consoles, Xbox 360 for Microsoft and PlayStation 3 for Sony, a couple of E3 conferences ago. After that, the rivalry did not falter.

Having said that, let us weigh the things who won the battle for this year.

Microsoft opened the day with a blast with more unveilings of Halo 5: Guardians. Demonstrating splendid group community gameplay ala Halo Reach with dazzling representation to boot, everyone knew Microsoft was to make a major sprinkle this time around. Not a lot on the tale of Master Chief, however. This is then trailed by the disclosing of Keiji Inafune's brainchild, an Xbox One selective, ReCore, an account of a young lady and her mechanical canine set in a no man's land future.

Wrenching it up, Microsoft declared that the Xbox One will soon bolster in reverse similarity with the Xbox 360 to a joyful adulation from the floor. They even showcased Mass Effect played on the Xbox One! Still on the topic of equipment, Microsoft additionally presented another completely adaptable Elite Xbox One controller for individuals who just couldn't get enough of the effectively splendid Xbox controller.

CraveOnline, on the other hand, discussed how Sony faired in the conference and just like Microsoft, Sony started with a bang but instead of using an already established-everyone-expected-it-to-appear franchise like Halo, they zoomed in on the viewers' heartstrings with the unveiling of The Last Guardian.

Although Yoshinori Ono didn't make that big appearance yet, his Street Fighter V was noticed through disclosing of two new characters. Cammy and Birdie will join Ryu, Chun-Li, M Bison, and Nash. Beta will be accessible on July 23 for individuals who pre-requested the diversion. Further subtle elements will be uncovered soon.

The conference went nuts when Sony finally revealed that they are currently working on the 1990's mega hit and iconic game Final Fantasy VII remake. Basically, that was the kicker of the event for the attendees, both fans and non-fans of the game.

After the standoff, the verdict, although the gap was very thin, goes to Microsoft. But, Sony will surely have the advantage when Final Fantasy VII will be released.
