Today's Story Highlights

Hits, Misses and Drama at E3 2018
E3 had the usual hits and misses this year, and more drama than most of
the games on the screens. With a strong lineup of first-party titles
plus better third-party support, Nintendo is the comeback king. However,
the battle for hardcore gamer dollars continues to be fought between
Microsoft and Sony. With no new hardware news from the companies, this
was another year about the games.

Nintendo Leans on Fan Favorites and Fortnite
Nintendo called in fan favorites, including Mario and Smash Bros., at
this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles. Super Mario
Party will be heading to the Nintendo Switch this October, joined by
Fire Emblem: Three Houses and the giant robot combat game Daemon x
Machina . However, it was Fortnite that arguably stole Nintendo's E3
Direct show.

Sony Trains Spotlight on a Few Good Games
Sony gave PlayStation fans a hefty sampling of what's coming to its
gaming consoles this year at E3. It gave them a long look at a
relatively few offerings -- a marked contrast from Microsoft's deluge of
titles. "Sony's E3 event was a break with tradition, an experiment to
test the way it could present its first-party output to the media," said
Piers Harding-Rolls, head of games at IHS Technology.

Private Cloud May Be the Best Bet: Report
News flash: Private cloud economics can offer more cost efficiency than
public cloud pricing structures. Private, or on-premises, cloud
solutions can be more cost-effective than public cloud options,
according to a report by 451 Research and Canonical. That conclusion
counters the notion that public cloud platforms traditionally are more
cost-efficient than private infrastructures.

Microsoft Goes All-In With Gaming
Microsoft made a big splash at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los
Angeles with its announcement of more than 50 games for its Xbox One
gaming console. Among the games unveiled by the company were 18 designed
to run exclusively on Xbox, including Forza Horizon 4 , Halo Infinite ,
Gears 5 , Session , Below and Ashen .
