The VGutopia staff takes a look at what features they would like to see for the next PlayStation console.
A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.
I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.
I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons
I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.
Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.
At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath
I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.
Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.
cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me
Sony has recruited Bungie's head of revenue Jaremy Rich to head up its live-service gaming division, Rich has announced on social media.
Please do not put Destiny’s monetization into Sony’s first party games. The monetization is what’s driving players away from Destiny.
I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.
Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.
How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.
I would definitely like to see how they implement ps plus on ps4, perhaps an instant ps4 game? Xmb will most certainly improve with multi tasking and faster UI. I would expect for backwards compatibility with peripherals such as move and eye toy if they would want to continue to support move, and my wireless 7.1 Sony bluetooth headset. I love those. So excited for the future of gaming in general.
For me cross game chatting is not that big of a deal. Yes it is pretty awesome playing GOW3 and talking to someone playing uncharted but for me personally i can deal with it. Apparently a crap ton of ps3 gamers cant. Lucky for me I have the first ps3 model the fat 60gb which does support backwards compatibility . But I think that all of the ps3 should have had it so I agree with him on this.
But ps4 will do an awesome job. It wont be no wii-u...... hopefully
I think all those things will happen except for maybe backwards compatablity. If the rumors are at all correct the ps4 will not be using the cell structure, and will be going with more of a PC easier to develop for architecture. So i worry that ps3 games won't play on it. Although they might figure out someway around that problem. Like if the ps4 could at least recognize what ps3 disc u put in, even it couldn't play it, but then be able to stream that game it recognizes with there gaikai technology they bought. Or maybe some other way, who knows.
meh I don't care about cross game chat. When I play a game, I don't usually don't want someone on the other side distracting me.
Pirates not only forced them to close it, but then tried to rip open PSN.
Also I don't want to give casual friends the option to barge into a movie or game I'm playing to go play another one.
