Well known industry insider Ahsan Rasheed, also known on NeoGAF and Twitter as Thuway has a quite good track record with his sources, and he shared what he heard about Sony’s work on the PS4′s firmware.
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.
Always good to hear this.
LOD 2 better be one of those good things on the Horizon.
Good so PS4 domination is in!
New and added functionality is always welcomed. Can't wait to see what they have planned.
I wish we had rumours on the games they have in development, they have a ton but they haven't shared most of them us yet...then you have the ones they have announced like the Order and Uncharted but no gameplay trailers.
Uncharted, The Order, More details on DriveClub, Guerrilla Games new IP, Sucker Punchs new IP, Sony Santa Monicas new IP, Quantic Dreams new IP, Sony Japan, Sony London, Sony Bend, GT7, Media Molecule, Sony San Diego...Crash Bandicoot in their somewhere
They are keeping their cards close to their chests aren't they
This insider is a Sony fanboy. He's the same clown who said TitanFall textures are low rez and that the devs are lying about the texture quality.
