Earlier this week, Sony confirmed that production of one of the most successful game consoles of all time, the PlayStation 2, has finally ended. With the completion of what was nearly a 13-year life cycle, Default Prime writer Mike Patuleia has decided to take a look back at some of the best games released for the console with a quick and dirty and highly controversial Top-10 List.
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.
The title should read "MY top 10..."
What about the game that pushed the concept of online multiplayer on consoles and included a headset to encourage communication? Or the 2nd game in that franchise that once had more players online than all of Xbox Live (at that time).
Capcom VS SNK 2
where is god of war series, mgs 2,3, jak and dexter, ratchet & clack, shadow of the colossus, tales series, Gran Turismo 3 & 4 and SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs 1,2,3 at??
Sort of a bad top 10. No Jak, Dark Cloud, DMC, MGS, etc. I quit caring once I saw Hot Shots Golf
