From David Jaffe surprising the masses at the Sony press conference, to Nintendo debuting a fully functional 3D system, this year's E3 has been one to remember. In this episode, our industry experts dissect the biggest news from the show, give their picks for game of show, and more!
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.
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.
SONY FTW!!!
Lol at Kotakuguy... a C? That's quite a stride, you are hitting there. "Least good"? With what MS and Konami showed?
The Conferences for Sony is just starting, the E3 was the 1st from 2 more, they didn't show the 20+ Exclusives even with 2 hours, and revealed more games on top of that, biggest catalog of games.
But now that is coming Gamescom (last year in that Conference they revealed PS3 Slim there so expect big news in Gamescom) and TGS Conference, massive Megatons incoming.
B+ for Sony.
Funny, they did not talk about Valve and EA. It is safe to say the Left 4 Dead series is no longer an Xbox exclusive which I think is big news. On top of that Sony showed they are not taking Move as just a gimmick with the announcement of them partnering with Coke to advertise it.
Unlike Nen. and MS, Sony does have more to cover and we know at Games Con and TGS they will have some more news. Can't say the same for the other two company's. I felt this bonus round was a little pre mature should have waited till at least we got our hands on PSN+ and the upcoming FW 3.40 update.
Kotalkshit!
