SCE Patents ‘Tongue Control’, Play PlayStation With Your Mouth

As much as we all love the DualShock and other gaming controllers, they do have their limitations, something motion controls have tried (and failed) to take advantage of. But Sony has another solution – use your tongue. - PSLS

What the hell types of games do they want us to play?

Perhaps this is a method that could help disabled people play games? For example paraplegics.

zeeshan4207d ago

Is that Hugh Laurie from House? Man I love that guy! Brilliant actor!! I miss House MD. Totally off topic I know but I really miss the show!

You should give Breaking Bad a try.

Sony's going for some interesting technology patents today

PS3 Move Controllers that get hot and cold, and playing games with your mouth

ElasticLove4207d ago (Edited 4207d ago )

Enough with these gimmicky products, just keep giving the fans quality titles to play and everything should be fine.

jujubee884207d ago (Edited 4207d ago )

This is more meant for a "see through" visual display future in general.

For instance, if you want to learn how to make Sushi you can put on some glasses fitted with see through OLED lenses (or something similar), the software could not only tell/show you the ingredients you would need (on the display) to make sushi but using AR the software and tongue UI, this app could visually cue you into the safest procedure to cut the fish, carefully prepare the rice, etc. all while you are not multi-tasking with your hands. Your tongue could be translated as a controller user interface to go from step a to step b in this "virtual cook book" and so forth and so on.

I honestly see this coming to homes sometime no later than 2016. Especially considering all the displays people are buying like smartphones, tablets, etc. Even headwear like the Sony VR display and Oculus are kind of kicking up in popularity.

What product??

They're simply filing for their quadrillionth patent just like Microsoft and Nintendo.

If they're thinking of anything, it's probably something geared towards the disabled.

Whine when they RELEASE it as the main ps4 controller, not when it's thrown together for the patent office by a small engineer team.

MasterCornholio4207d ago

Sounds like something that would work for a Hentai game........

My biggest fear is losing my hands I am glad something like this is coming

LittleBigPlanet 3 Servers Are Officially Shut Down 'Indefinitely,' Sony Confirms

Sony has confirmed that LittleBigPlanet 3 servers on PlayStation 4 will remain offline “indefinitely” following troubles with the service from earlier this year.

Sad day, hopefully they’ll allow a third party server solution. Goes to show game preservation is an uphill battle.

blackblades1h ago

Sad day oh wait everyone that whining about it didn't play it or haven't played it in years and never was going back to it. Funny how people start to care when this happens but when it was actually up those same people didn't even pay attention to it.

What needs to be highlighted by this is that the series has had 4 main games then that go kart spin off yet sony let them all die.

There is 0 games like this on ps5 and to my knowledge 0 first party main kids games no tech demo crap

Sony purchased Media Molecule studio the ip then tossed it away letting it rot for over 7 years yet the community carried on until now were we have lost 16 years on all games of content along with no replacement.

Everyone goes on about ea killing studios but sony has killed way way more but its fine its sony they can do no wrong.

Before the sony blidboys track me down again go fire up your holy boxes all the dlc they tossed out all the trophies and all the user content needs a server side handshake that no longer works. Yes offline single player version 1.0 works but that is it.

Media Molecule was not cut i know but they only made LBP and dreams it was reported they just missed the chopping block

Do not forget the dreams game was tossed out 2020 but 3 years later support was pulled
https://www.digitaltrends.c...

All in all this is another failure at sony on a long long list in the past 10 years

Inverno3h ago

It's kind of hard to disagree when SONY has a history of abandoning many of their IPs. They killed Mod Nation and turnt it into LBP Karting because of brand recognition but left it to die too. They made their own Smash Bros only to rush the studio, and turn the game into an advert for recent release at the time and still let it die. They shut down PS Home for more or less the same reason, they left it to rott till it became too broken and exploited to bother fixing.

just_looken42m ago

This right here

Playstation home is what facebook is trying to make now but in vr that metaverse deal

Imagine if sony kept up ps home development

The death of playstation forums was also a huge loss

u-bEttA-rUn2h ago

Their games were unable to attract the masses every game that came out the attachment grew smaller and smaller they advertise LBP for years the industry changed and then came fortnight... You want Sony to continue to support them which cost them money that they're not getting back from the studio.

Tacoboto3h ago

I feel bad for Media Molecule. For the ideas they have it seems they need a publisher that supports games like this and Dreams especially for as many players as possible.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC10h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer11h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya9h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde8h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

SeTTriP29m ago

This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.
