Ah, I was wondering when this would appear. And as I suspected, the analyst can't really do much better than anyone else who happens to have knowledge of the industry. They're not the oracles they make themselves out to be. And I wouldn't say that the coin put up "solid numbers". You would expect the coin to be 50% correct. 42% is significantly lower than that.
Scientific proof: Heads and Tails are not a 50% deal, and horse opinions are more reliable than a coin's. Buy a horse today folks!
Hey, Tekken x Street Fighter was playable?? I mean the Namco version of the crossover that no one ever heard of again in months, not the Capcom game released in April!
Aside from that, that was a competition full of Nos.

Pfft, Wonderbook. Sony missed a golden opportunity to tap into the horse market. The Wondercarrot would have sold like hotcakes.

The coin had "Yes" 24 times and "No" 26 times, so it was essentially a 50-50 split. That doesn't necessarily mean, however, that the coin's response should have been correct 50% of the time.

Okay, the post has been updated! Sorry for the confusion! Tekken X Street Fighter was not playable. My wires got crossed.
It now looks like the gamer is the new winner! SCANDAL!
Sorry, Jesse. :(

While this does not affect the results of the winner, it does affect the coin's score! Hideo Kojima was at E3 this year.

Congrats to Billy then, who is not only smarter than a horse, but more majestic running through the meadows.

I know this is a shit-ton of work, so a million thanks, this is great. Given that, you should brainwash fellow editors into doing something like this for PAX or Tokyo or Koeln, PLEASE.
That horse had a surprising number of correct answers.
It was quite impressive.
Disappointed that Square had nothing to say about FFXV, which was my question. I mean, the horse said yes, it was practically guaranteed.

@Abnegation,
Hahahaha. Oh no! When I fixed the first mistake, I accidentally pulled in an older discrepancy. THIS IS NOT MY DAY!
At least it doesn't affect the winner. I will update soon, just to make it as accurate as possible. Thanks! :)

DAT HO(A)RSE!
I was really interested to see the results between the analyst and the gamer. It was a close call. Really close. The real winner is us though, we got to read this! Thanks for doing this every year, Chad. I love you for it.

HUGE thanks to Chad for putting all of this together and then going back to compile all the information!
Big thanks to Jesse Divnich for being a part of all this madness and being so awesome about the whole thing.
Also, thanks to the toddler for her totally awesome optimism! I wish I was as happy about everything as she is!
To the horse, well....you're a horse, you'll never understand these words so really, anything I write here will fall on deaf ears and a long face.
And finally, to the coin. I have nothing but contempt for you. Your glaring stares and emotionless face will haunt me no more, I am victorious over you and all you can do is lay there and take it!
Thanks again to Chad and all of Dtoid for letting me be part of this and thanks to all of the readers for being so awesome!

Nice to see how every yes that was actually the case was at least agreed on by the analyst and the gamer, and the only reason the analyst won from the gamer was because of pessimism.
Dammit, Chad! Another mistake! Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time was playable!! Unless you mean shown off and played live onstage, then change it again!! >:/
I ain't mad, yo :D

@Oishidesu,
That one was updated. Just give the server a second to catch up and the brand new fancy chart should be displayed. Everything was perfect at the beginning! I don't know what happened! What a crazy day! :)
Thanks for the heads-up, though! :)

I got 42 right, thus convincing me more than ever that I should be a game analyst.
What's most sad is that there were only 8 'yes' answers in all. That toddler should be in charge of all the companies at E3! It would've been so much better!
Awesome feature, Chad.
Awesome feature, Chad.
I thought Microsoft mentioned that they were expanding their $99 Xbox thing to more stores during e3?
