"There’s currently a rumor going around that the new PS4 will be called the Orbis, that several versions are currently in the hands of developers, and that the specs are not what we’ve all been expecting. While these rumors should be treated as just that—rumors—they are being confirmed by multiple sources, so it’s worth taking an in-depth look at the machine. "
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.
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.
Cheap pricing will gain anyone the lead next gen.
I don't blame sony for going cheap next gen. Look at what being cutting edge and powerful got them. The vita is it latest example. Gamers are always going on about graphics and wanting a powerful system but when Sony gives it to them. You guys don't buy it and then say it too expensive.
I hope Sony wins next gen with this new outlook they developed because appeasing to the core is just not working for them.
So this is basically speculating on speculation? Gotcha.
Whatever happens for the next gen one thing is for sure, no single company will dominate.
Hopefully, cheap pricing wouldn't compromise the hardware; I'd rather have something expensive that will last for years rather than a cheap console that is hardly next gen at all.
people are acting like there is no way for Sony to have custom chips AND THAT THEY ARE USING OFF THE SHELF PARTS!
I REPEAT AS OF NOW this rumor is just that a d@mn rumor, i posted info directly from the head CTO of Sony's Hard ware div. Stated, they are building a custom CPU and GPU chipset!
that it could very well be the 1st 1 billion chip set design in Playstation History. This info was direct from Sony but yet this is the 3rd d@mn post about this rumor Info being posted when the factual info keeps getting brushed aside!
again i am going to post it.
It appears that Sony is once again a “3DIC” leader showing that wide IO memory can be used without having to introduce HVM TSV technology which most assuredly, at this point in 3DIC evolution, would have been a costlier option which would have taken significantly longer to implement.
Earlier this year Masaaki Tsuruta, CTO of Sony Computer Entertainment, indicated that there will likely be a 3D stack incorporating TSV technology in the next generation console. Sony's target of no more than 50ms latency even for 8k x 4k resolution at 300fps, clearly points to the need for a highly integrated TSV-based package although Tsuruta warned "We will have to work with a lot of third-party partners to make these things happen."
Clearly, Sony will be a major player in the era of 2.5/3D
"for the incoming console is likely to be a 3D stack incorporating thru-silicon-via technology and could be the first $1bn hardware design project."

The PSvita already uses 3D stacked chip's
And as for AMD if they are it would confirm the use of these type of chips if anything:

ADDING multiple Arm cortex core's right on the CPU/GPU package die 3D stacked!
SO WE STILL DO NOT KNOW A HELL OF ALOT OF INFO ABOUT THE NEXT PLAYSTATION , BUT WHAT WE DO KNOW IS THAT IT WILL NOT BE AN OVER THE COUNTER CHIP SET!
