Anonymous is staging a 24-hour, in-store boycott at Sony stores around world on Saturday, April 16. So far over 1,000 people have RSVP'd through Facebook.
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.
Sea of Thieves is the first Rare-developed game to launch for a PlayStation console, and Sony was heavily involved in helping the studio bring the swashbuckling pirate romp to its flagship console.
Out of curiosity could any of these ms games going to ps5 have been leaked by Sony themselves? Not Sony but someone at Sony
sony isn't about to let some console wars get in the way of trying to make microsoft become a third party dev by showing them that they make more money with them than without them. of course with that in mind they'd help them. it's also doubly so because microsoft are bringing what is considered a popular game over that can also make sony money
Nice.
Still don't want it though.
Tell me Killer Instinct is coming to PS5 and then we'll talk.
"All signs point to the hardware becoming less and less important to Microsoft."
Less innovation and competition. People act like if MS went away life would be better but it would just mean you have one less choice as to where to spend your money. If Sony became the defacto home console provider and Nintendo the handheld, then these companies could limit what you get and you would ultimately have very little choice but to support them if you want to play games.
I was a video that suggested that Steam could potentially get into the console market if Xbox ceases to exist. They already had the Steam Machine(?), and they have the Steam Deck for the portable market. I’m not in the pc space at all so I wouldn’t know if that would be a realistic statement.
No Xbox future I am going to guess Microsoft will go down the path Sega choose and be a publisher/game developer with their in house studios. Or sell off their in house studios and just go back to making os for PC's. I highly doubt the second part. Microsoft like any company wants to make money. So if Microsoft did say pull the plug on Xbox I see them going down the path Sega went. And utilize Xbox as a brand and not just as a console. I can see the name of XBox being mainly a brand after that. And maybe with the game you see published by or developed by Xbox studios.
Decided to submit this myself with a working link
Meanwhile, at Sony HQ:

How do these people not understand that what they're fighting for is the right to steal from Sony? That at this point, instead of stoking his ego, they should be talking to Geohot to work some kind of plea-bargain? At this point Sony my as well close down the PS division if they give into crap like this.
And what are these people going to do this time? Picket Sony stores and stores selling Sony product? Stage sit-ins at Sony isles? Attack people buying Sony stuff or destroying displays? I'm certain if any of that happens Anonymous will only look good.
Anonymous needs to grow up and get on with their lives.
ALL THIS JUST SO ONE GUY CAN HACK THE PS3 FREELY. It's pathetic!
Anonymous needs to grow up and actually get a life.
"'Gamers' Plan Boycott of Anonymous's Sony Boycott on April 16"
Ill set up the facebook page and send out the RSVP's, lets show these fucks we dont want nor need them fucking up our gaming industry
Some people have too much free time on their hands. It really sad that they gone to sit in a store for hours to protest something stupid. Someone should go down there and post pics of these losers.
