Steven Strom of SideQuesting.com writes: "Sony has already confirmed that those attending E3 this year will be “…the first to witness the launch of more than 20 new gaming experiences.” With such high profile franchise exclusives like God of War: Ascension, LittleBigPlanet Karting and Playstation All-Stars: Battle Royale already having been revealed, we the SideQuesting crew are guessing that Sony’s press conference is going to be all about new games. And with Sony’s own admitted awareness that their latest portable needs more games, this could be the company’s big chance to make a hard push for new Vita software.
With the tagline “The Future of Gameplay and Innovation”, it doesn’t seem like much of a stretch to guess that Sony might also be touting some of their handheld’s exclusive features like cross-system play/purchasing."
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.
i'm expecting to see a lot of new psvita games at the conference
I don't agree with quite a few of the predictions.
But I think that was probably the best pre-E3 article I've read so far. Well thought out...well reasoned...well done that man!
A nice break from the usual fare we've seen to date!
Now if only we shared the same opinions.
I cannot wait
Just curious what ever happen to Syphon Filter 4?? Weren't they suppose to reveal that a couple of months ago?
I definitely don't think we'll see Killzone 4.
I love the series but to me it feels like K3 hasn't been out too long. What i'd like is Killzone 4 to be a PS4 Launch title. Now that would be awesome!
