The Vita is an impressive little device, and it has a boatload of potential, but developers haven't shown an excessive amount of enthusiasm for Sony's latest handheld. A steady stream of titles has made its way on to the system, but very few of them have maximized the Vita's potential, or made the little console worth investing in.
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.
Sony has patented to add multiple dialogue modes to let players switch between how many conversations with NPCs they want in the game.
Sony is like the only ones outta the 3 that has atuff like like this pop up changing thing in ways.
Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.
Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.
Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both
So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.
SONY made its own bed.
Nah, trying to compete with Nintendo did that....in before massive disagrees and bubble downs.
The Vita's not even dead yet, you nut. However, I do believe that this game was overall a detriment to the platform. It doesn't need these spinoffs. And it doesn't need PS3 ports either. It needs new and original content. As does ANY platform.
Yes it did, now Killzone Mercenary, Tearaway, Soul Sacrifice, etc. wont be releasing next year all thanks to one third party game!
In all seriousness though, despite Black Ops Declassified being a bad game the CoD Vita bundle is still moving in sales charts. So its helping the Vita if anything
Persona 4 Golden proves the Vita is capable of great things. We need more developers to take the chance like they use to in the old days & make games for it despite what the sales number says.
When the PS1 debuted there were many doubters if that system would be a success. Sony convinced many developers to take the chance with the new system & well we all know what happened there.
The same can be said with the Vita, will it do 3DS numbers or any Nintendo handheld numbers of course not but it can still be a successful platform nonetheless.
