Ah Sony, Microsoft and Bizarre Creations release Geometry Wars and you release the Pixel Junk Shooter series with Q-Games. Nintendo releases the Wii mote and Sony releases the PlayStation Move.
All of this pandering for Sony critique aside, it can safely be said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. We can also only assume who worked on what first by release date which isn't entirely fair. We never truly know who started researching what first and it usually isn't brought to light in discussion...
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.
This guy has to be trolling. Pixel Junk Shooter has nothing to do with Geometry Wars.
Yawn. A whole long drawn out article saying the exact same thing we argued back and forth about explained and explained again over and over and over again.You guys should get another hobby. It's too bad that authors who write this stuff don't make this big a deal about it when Sony and friends make something that isn't 'copying' something else.But a hundred thousand articles about how Sony should have copied SSB and how it isn't like SSB and counting. And I expect to see about a hundred thousand more before the end of the year and a add two hundred thousand more if they try to make PASBR 2. But you won't see many articles about Rain or Puppeteer or anything. Because those aren't 'copying' anything they stay in obscurity.But just let Sony make another shooter so we can hear how much it is 'copying' Halo. Heck Sony just hinted about upgrading their PSEYE and they are already 'copying' Kinect.Now Sony upgrading their own tech that existed long before anyone else is considered 'copying'.
@ jwk94 .Thanks I was just about to say that. He obviously has never played Pixel Junk shooter in his life if he thinks it is like Geometry Wars.
...you compared GEOMETRY WARS with PIXEL JUNK SHOOTER!!!
*knocks self out cold from epic facepalm*
N4G's filtering system is flawing by epic porportions lately.
Getting the feeling its intentional so much its happening.
Geometry Wars and PJ Shooter? I believe the comparison you're trolling to make is with Super Stardust HD.
