GP writer Jared discusses why he Sony could be hurting the Playstation brand by suing the actor behind one of their most famous mascots.
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 never liked him anyways so I dont care, but thats rough hes just the working man and they are looking for money trying to keep him down because he played with his wii.
We can't speak on who is right or wrong.None of us have a copy of the contract that was signed by both parties..Its all business for these companies at the end of day and sometimes things get ugly.
Damn right, the people love him. Sony's most disappointing move with All-Stars is not having him as a playable character.
Kevin Butler wasnt even funny on either side so I dont see the difference or what the fuss is about
Legally it may or may not be an appropriate move. It's just unfortunate, given that the chance of more Kevin Butler ads is now pretty slim. I really liked those ads too.
