Worthplaying writes, "Now that Sony is finally bringing back the PlayStation Network, the road to recovery has started — or one would like to believe so. Earlier today, Sony disabled the update password function on the PSN Web site due to an exploit that allowed end users to update the password on any account to which they had the e-mail address and birthday — the very same data that was compromised in the original hack. Something weird also happened with Rockstar's support site today."
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.
I wish someone would gag these F.U.D. websites. There is nothing here that suggests that Sony "gagged" Rockstar, like they could anyway.
I think the reason why it was deleted is because they also commented on 360 users reporting multiple freezing and other issues console related issue while playing their game on older 360 models.
They commented on that same post stating that they will be doing testing on Older consoles of both PS3 and 360, in hopes to make a patch.
So it would be wrong for them to state that FW 3.61 is causing it if both system are experiencing freezing and such.
Oh great, it got approved.
Guess Nitrowolf's comment was too much common sense and not enough controversy and baseless assumptions. We all know how much these sites don't want that.
Gagged? Rockstar is pretty neutral in my book. They develop for whatever console is best for them and dont show too much of a bias towards consoles unlike some other games i know coughcallofdutycough
well, Rockstar went through the effort of putting up an dedicated page on their website, attributing it specifically to the v3.61 update, saying they got multiple reports, and that it happens on various games, singling out that the added security checks might be the cause for it overheating ..
Those are all rather specific items they mention, so I don't think it's too much of leap to claim something is afoot.
