Non Specific Action take a stand against Sony as their Vita schedule has been far from perfect or investable.
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.
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 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
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.
Don't F******g buy one then and f**k o**
Question. Why is it people still keep saying they could buy a PS3 for the money they spend on the VITA? I could buy a Wii for the money I spend on a 3DS but a Wii is not portable is it. And as for the launch line up being a joke if I remember the 3DS starting line up was an even bigger joke and people still ran out and brought it. If your best game is a remake of a decades old game I think that counts as a joke. Sony handed us a whole bunch of games at launch and they need time to get more. And we already saw that we are getting a lot more. So I know PlayStation fans don't have the most patience in the world but all systems need time to build their titles. No system has ever launched with great games from the start not even the 3DS.Developers like MM need a little time to get used to the VITA's strong points. So shouting 'I want my games so stof f***king around!' isn't really going to help
I did not read the article but the minute I saw the title it reminded me of a comment referring to the latest Vita firmware up date.
" I think what pisses me off the most is Sony working on trivial features like this when they need to do so many things to get Vita out of the gutter."
There are so many big & important things that Sony should be doing with their ailing business and they are not doing them.
I have been saying this since 2010:
A well balanced gaming platform for mature & young gamers.
1) Sony do not neglect & underestimate the power of young gamers because they are the foundation of mature gaming
2) Sony itself are not making the right types of games for the PS Vita. Nintendo's dominance of handheld gaming has defined that sector through the years as a gaming for the kids. Nintendo games are built to appeal to east & west. PSP had great hardware installed base but abyssmal software support.
Now throw in how Apple & Android changed how the masses game all the more they need to change their hardcone only strategy.
3) Sony are expecting the wrong age majority of gamers to play on their handheld. The PlayStation console experience is still best experience with a PS3.
4) Sony is having a hard time convincing third party developers to make games for Vita because they have not set the right example & identity of the handheld.
5) Sony has supported & favored its western studios more that Japan Studios as far as game productions are concerned. That is why Japanese gamers flock to Nintendo. Japan Studios biggest games TLG, Gravity Rush, Pupeteer, Rain are niche title.
They go for niche titles & forget the mainstream & entry level games.
Sony Europe Studios have really original & innovative games like LBP & Eyepet but their character designs are scary & horrible like Eyepet & Start the Party. Japanese should step in and design them. That is synergy.
Believe you me I Tweet Mr. Shu Yoshida almost every day about these matters.
And now that the PS3 & PS Vita are lagging in sales & mind share its too late for them to realize that.
End of Rant.
the vita is a sweet lil system, but i cant justify the price tag at this point.
the PlayStation Vita is the most advanced portable gaming system ever made
