A Mysterious Next-Gen Project Sponsored By Bill Gates, And Other Gaming Secrets

In his LinkedIn profile, a Seattle engineer who joined Activision as vice president of research and development this month states that he is "looking for graphics and systems software developers in the Greater Seattle area," seemingly suggesting that the publisher is establishing an office in Washington. (Presumably this is unrelated to Bungie and Destiny, as Bungie are an independent company with their own proprietary tech base and HR department.)

Bill Gates sponsoring a next gen project? Whoa, this is serious.

mandf4073d ago

His name brings hits. He's retired and not coming out of it just for a console.

matchu_peechu4073d ago

Just because he's reitred doesn't mean ge can't give input to the company that he founded. It's HIS legacy

RuleofOne343 4073d ago

Maybe not for a Console, but it would be cool to see him at the helm of MS again.

dcbronco4073d ago

Bill Gates retired from full-time work, not retired completely. He still works for Microsoft.

Donnieboi4073d ago

No. Ps4 is serious. M$ is strictly just casual now. And Bill Gates doesn't play videogames.

UnholyLight4073d ago

He's the Chairman to Microsoft you idiots. What the hell do you think a FUCKING chairman does in any situation.

Sony fanboyism, the worst I have ever seen.

@matchu_peechu EXACTLY

People, get some logic before you comment. How do you think a business/investors work. What are you all 13years old?

mwjw6964074d ago

I really don't think Bill cares about projects like this. He is so rich at this point that its crazy. He is giving money away to help poor people all over the world. Tech to help people is his big thing right now.

Remember when MS stated that hardly anyone was going to even notice Sony's press event? Yeah that was hilarious. xD So now they have to drag poor old Bill from his nice warm bed to try and disrupt the PS4 love fest that's going on with whispers of awesome next-gen projects and super gaming secrets. lmao So sad.

Jakens4074d ago

I don't like secerts. They suck!

MiloGarret4073d ago

Well, apart from people actively following video gaming news, no one did. Most adults, that is, those paying for video game consoles, have no idea the ps4 has been announced.

Pintheshadows4073d ago

It was on the front page of BBC news and in all the papers so...

TheGamerDood4073d ago

@Pintheshadows

The BBC you say...that's big. :D

Rainstorm814073d ago (Edited 4073d ago )

Believe what you will, I know better than to argue with the deluded inhabitants of this site.

Tito084073d ago (Edited 4073d ago )

You sure about that?? even spanish only news channels, especially Univision were talking about Sony announcing the PS4, looks like you're trying to copy everything Microsoft says like their pet! In Dominican Republic, almost nobody knows what's an Xbox, & knows what is a Playstation, lol! Do not say believe what you will when proof was already proven, you the only delusional for listening to Microsoft execs!!

All they said was that they didnt think the UK would know much about it. Kinda overextended their statement there buddy. They never said the event was gonna go "unnoticed by the majority of people" as you seem to say.

I love your pic of Kaz, I hate your fanboyism though!

Sony has confirmed that LittleBigPlanet 3 servers on PlayStation 4 will remain offline “indefinitely” following troubles with the service from earlier this year.

Sad day, hopefully they’ll allow a third party server solution. Goes to show game preservation is an uphill battle.

Fieyy4h ago

First the Helldivers launch and then this

Sony still can’t run online services/games.

-Foxtrot4h ago

Do you not get tired creating duplicate accounts...

It's super sad at this point

Knightofelemia2h ago

Last time I remember Helldivers is doing great with players both PC and Playstation.

Fieyy1h ago

And how was it at launch? A disaster for weeks.

arkard29m ago

How was that Sonys fault?

Fieyy20m ago(Edited 15m ago)

Is Sony not the publisher?

jjb198127m ago(Edited 26m ago)

It's crazy that you keep making accounts just to be a troll. You went through the trouble of making it just to try to stir the fanboy pot. 🤡 activities.

Fieyy20m ago

Still got your attention though huh ;)

What needs to be highlighted by this is that the series has had 4 main games then that go kart spin off yet sony let them all die.

There is 0 games like this on ps5 and to my knowledge 0 first party main kids games no tech demo crap

Sony purchased Media Molecule studio the ip then tossed it away letting it rot for over 7 years yet the community carried on until now were we have lost 16 years on all games of content along with no replacement.

Everyone goes on about ea killing studios but sony has killed way way more but its fine its sony they can do no wrong.

Before the sony blidboys track me down again go fire up your holy boxes all the dlc they tossed out all the trophies and all the user content needs a server side handshake that no longer works. Yes offline single player version 1.0 works but that is it.

Media Molecule was not cut i know but they only made LBP and dreams it was reported they just missed the chopping block

Do not forget the dreams game was tossed out 2020 but 3 years later support was pulled

All in all this is another failure at sony on a long long list in the past 10 years
