A retailer (HEB Plus) is known for breaking street dates on game releases and they've done it again. Stores in Texas have been reported to be selling the PS Vita Call of Duty Bundle already, nearly 10 days early.
If there's an HEB Plus near you than you should check it out and see if you can snag the bundle early.
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
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.
If they're known for this, why are they still in business? Can't they get in major trouble for that?
It's possible. Retailers are tied to specific dates but often taking action or banning future sales can be just as damaging to the publisher.
In this case Sony are probably just happy to sell a few Vitas. I doubt much will come of it.
Edit: meant to be a reply to #1. Cheers iPhone.
