We’re only a few days away from what will hopefully be a major console announcement from Sony. The PS4 is right around the corner, and rumors have been circulating about what gameplay hook it will offer.
A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.
I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.
I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons
I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.
Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.
At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath
I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.
Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
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.
Im looking forward to it.
As long as it's worked on more after the PS4 launches and NOT sold WITH the PS4 so we have to pay more for our new console then I'm fine with it. They should focus all their attention of the PS4 it's self and the quality control on it.
However you know what's going to happen next gen :|
"Oh look at that Sony are copying MS and are doiung their own version of Kinect"
Despite the fact Kinect is basically an improved Eyetoy which Sony did first years ago
Oy. I truly hope that won't be the selling point of the console. I'm not really an EyeToy or Kinect fan to begin with. If it's an optional device that doesn't jack up the price of the initial console, I'll be happy.
One of the things I hated about Kinect was Microsoft's incessant focus on it. It was underdeveloped technology to begin with that didn't provide many fun game experiences (except for the Gunstringer. I liked that one) and only seemed to be a fun little device for hackers and modders. From a consumer standpoint I think devices like these should be optional.
And inb4 someone says Sony's copying Microsoft. PS2 era - EyeToy. Bam.
EDIT: Just wanted to make the point of saying not to get me wrong, more than likely I'm getting a PS4 regardless at some point. I'm just saying I would not enjoy paying more for a souped up EyeToy since none of those sorts of devices ever really enticed me.
If you can't beat them join them...
You know it would be so funny that why Sony fan boys stay dogging the kinect that if Sony starts focusing on making all there games focus on the PS eye next gen, we know for a fact that Sony are focusing on new controls why Microsoft is keeping basically the same controller.
