While Sony's share price was in decline ahead of yesterday's PlayStation Meeting announcement, the reveal of its new hardware prompted a 2.4 per cent rise during after-hours trading.
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.
Ps4 hype even Chad Daddy Warden came back for it!

Other article debunked.
It seems to me that people and companies alike have an over-obsession with stock prices. I think it's a fundamental flaw in the structure of our economy if companies are this obsessed and reliant upon share prices--i.e., "pleasing" the shareholders. Stock value should not be the primary concern of a company--profitability and long-term stability should be. But that's just my opinion.
Facebook was on top of the world, viewed as one of the hugest homerun successes in the past decade, prior to going public. All of a sudden, when it became a publicly traded company, and the share prices were shown to be lackluster, there became this perception that Facebook was over-the-hill, or in some ways a failure. Anyone else see the failure in this logic by the financial community and general public?
2 articals in 1 day about the exact same thing who doing damage control i think its time for me to bring a few to hell.
The PS4 only does everything ... and more.
This is great news! What do you think Cocozero?
Actually 2.4% is nothing particularly amazing, but it's all in the right direction at least. It has to be good news to see any shares in the industry rising after the recent general decline.
Here's hoping this (and Microsoft's impending announcement) help the industry gather more pace again ;)
