Nintendo’s success in the handheld gaming market is unrivalled. System after system they have outsold the competition regardless of specs or features. Can Sony's NGP change all that?
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.
Agreed. Blizzard recently banned a college Overwatch 2 player who's dependent for saying "shit." Pretty harsh.
How rediculas really. You can't say a word that's allowed in most PG films and prime time TV but the game is based around killing the enemy team using guns, explosives etc.
It's just backwards.
What your talking about is called block list
In 2006 a spaceship dropped of the playstation 3/xbox 360 i say that that generation was the last great gen with game functions/tech that has yet to comeback
Anyhow the playstation 3 if you block listed a id they could not talk to you in chatroom with either text or voice. But that was pre mind fucked 2018 when people were more human than sheep.
But hey gta 6 is coming out billion dollar budget without a single player custom character creator and without singeplayer coop off/online something saints row 1-3 had on the xbox 360.
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 genuinely get a bit worried sometimes when a friend says something that could be offensive In a party
Because I have no trouble believing some bans would happen when in a private party for saying something wrong
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
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
There's nothing it can do. You can't dethrone Nintendo in the handheld market.
Doesn't need to dethrone Nintendo. Just needs to be everything Sony said it would be.
nope............by the time the ngp comes out in all regions (early 2012)
the 3ds will be selling millions and millions ahead in sales and have a better lineup of great games.
but that doesnt mean if the ngp gets original games it wont be good. the psp is great
Easy.. All Sony needs to do is release the hand-held as scheduled & make sure Call of Duty, Killzone & Uncharted release as scheduled as well..
& then job done.
NGP = Nintendo Got Pwned. Money rolls in for Sony. :)
Also, Alot of people don't quite understand that there is actually quite a bit of interest for Sony's NGP.. alot more than people seem to think. I think we're all going to be very surprised with just how many units this beast will sell.
it's gonna be tough for the ngp and I don't think sony will out sell nintendo, they'll most likely lose out in any competitive price wars by putting the console price up too high. if nintendo can hold onto the markets which it gained with the ds then its gonna be plain sailing.
