Telegraph looks back at Sony's foray into the gaming market.
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.
PlayStation 4 ever.
Argh 2 more days! So excited. Everyone at the office thinks I'm such a nerd for counting down the days -_-
What's all the fuss all about? Who EVER said PS4 was to be shown-off? Lost all fun in PS3 all of s sudden?
I'll give Sony credit the hype train for this reveal is huge! I havn't ever seen this much hype for an announcement in the gaming world ever. Even E3 doesnt get this kind of hype.. Everybodys talking about it and will be watching it even 360 fanboys.
Sonys failed at advertising in the past but this time they really hit it. If the announcement is amazing with amazing games announced they could win the next war early by riding this hype train all the way.
