"The past few weeks have been a flurry of next-gen madness.
Leaked specs, rumored features, generalized release dates… it’s been absolute craziness.
Today, that madness climaxed with the PlayStation event held by Sony, where the veil was lifted on what Sony’s been up to.
It’s a lot of information, and we at OXCGN have got you covered.
We have one major question, though: Will the next generation belong to Sony?"
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.
I have to say... I'm actually really excited for this. Microsoft is going to have a HARD time coming up with a retort.
Ninty and MS have to do something big...and I mean BIG. I don't see how they'll be able to compete. Every weakness the PS3 had has turned into a strength for the PS4.
This is simultaneously most amazing press conference i have ever seen so i say Y E S BIG TIME!!!
If MS don't do something that blows away what Sony just showed, then I would say that Sony will def lead the next gen :)
Blizzard and Exclusive Destiny content is great, but Watch Dogs, Infamous, Killzone sold me on the console day one.
I really would have loved to see gameplay of Drive Club, but the trailer the I saw made me a believer.
Play. Create. Share. Sony went full force with that tag.
