NES looks into Sony's downward trend over the past 10 years and looks into the management problems that have been ailing the tech giant over the past decade.
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.
Now I can't wait for the article about Microsoft one of the richest company ever is on the decline
well, this is Kaz's first year. even investors know that's too short a time to implement changes...
now's a good time to invest in Sony...
Slow news day.Sony is in financial trouble. About the hundredth article to point it out.Thanks for confirming what has already been said.....again. And as usual LOGICWINS jumps to defend another negative Sony article. Another shocker.And the usual 'We should take this seriously, Sony is in a lot of trouble' for people who always act as if they are so much more concerned then the whole gaming community.We all know Sony is having financial troubles. We have heard the figures, heard from the doomsayers and the financial geniuses and every single article. That is what Kaz is trying to fix and why they are trying to reorganize the company. Or haven't you heard? But as soon as another article pops up saying 'Sony is in financial trouble we will be hearing 'We have to take this seriously' from the overly concerned gamers who always think they are more concerned then even the people who actually own the company are.
Yeah, i'm pretty sure EVERYONE knows Sony is in deep financial troubles, but that doesn't mean we should be getting news like this more than twice a week. Why do people want other companies to fail? People need their jobs, and more competition is good for business as it makes companies learn from their mistakes and improve on them. Heck, I may not like the Xbox 360 much, but I still don't want it to fail, as Xbox Live Gold inspired PS+, and it and PSN are going to make the Wii U's online better (well, at least I hope Nintendo does so)
Plus, some the best and memorable games and new IPs in the last 15 years started on Playstation. MGS (not a new IP, but Solid series started on PS1), Tomb Raider, Devil May Cry, Okami, ICO and SOTC, God of War, Uncharted, GT, GTA, RE, and many more. With a console that that has a 15+ years of history, a giant list of games that started on this console and are now classics, and still choosing to create new IPs despite this gen seemingly ending soon AND under financial problems, you'd have to be a giant blind and ignorant fanboy to WANT Sony to go bankrupt and close down.
Wow, what an article and it does a lengthy but very good job of explaining Sony's woes. I agree that Sony does seem to have an identity crisis in that they sell a lot of different products but there doesn't seem to be real focus or direction to the company. Unlike say Apple or Amazon who have a limited number of products but they are generally high quality and are razor focused in leveraging them to sell a lot of software/consumables through their formadable ecosystem of books, music, movies etc. I think that Microsoft are also at a turning point with the move from PC's to Tablets gradually reducing their income from operating systems. Their Xbox divison is strong but there is a lot of question marks on how they are going to keep producing high profits. If their new Surface tablets fail then their market position will be heavily scrutinised.
