The Spawnpointblog checked out the long awaited PS4 announcement and we give a breakdown of the highlights and lowlights from the event.
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.
Good : Awesome games, Impressive graphics, Nice controller, new share functions, easy to develop for (apparently) fast (apparently), big list of 3rd party devs, play games whilst downloading, Gakai info
Bad: Blizzard, nice partnership but honestly give us something better than Diablo 3.
Have to wait until E3 to see the console...
Ugly: Square Enix hyping up nothing again.
"NOT ENOUGH NEW GAMES"
*facepalm*
for ****'s sake, the damned thing isn't even on the market yet, and people are complaining about no new games...
Bad: No hardware BC
Still haven't fixed those analog triggers.
Good: Most everything else.
The one thing I hope for is for Chad Daddy to come out of retirement and talk about dat PSQuad. He knows it be BAAAALLLLIINNNNNN'
I hate journalists. Too negative to the ones that care about gamers. Always predict stupid things and start fanboys wars ..
Why don't you release news only instead of all this bullshits..
