Eldon from Denkiphile: "February 20 was a big day for Sony. For those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about and aren’t up to date on video game related news, Sony announced the PS4 (or as people who are ABAP call it, the PSQuadruple) along with a number of launch titles like the new Killzone or Destiny. I was pretty disappointed overall with the console itself and other aspects surrounding it because I was led to believe that the hardware would be next-gen material, when in reality it feels more like current-gen but slightly dated."
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.
its because you are a fanboy for another and lesser product.
i dont understand silly articles with people not being excited about ps4 but feels the need to tell people they arent excited. its ok not to be excited but when you have a product that you are suppose to be into because its your hobby and its the best doing things youve never seen pushing tech forward and you dont like it, something is wrong. might as well you stop playing video games if you hate the sony conference for ps4 or you just come out and say," im a fanboy for x product and what sony showed was amazing so i hate them".
i know going around on the internet i see a lot of pc fanboys crying and making things up to make themselves feel better. i see people going as far as to say everything shown by sony was fake which is really a compliment to how amazing the ps4 is.
i lost bubbles saying that killzone shadow fall will look better than crysis 3 on ultra and was banned for a few days. i am right but the thought of it being true was enough to drice pc fanboys crazy enough to full my inbox with hate messages saying im a f...ing b... that doesnt know about gaming hardware. i dont know a lot but i know ps4 renders high end pcs unnecessary if it can surpass expensive pcs that cost thousand of dollars to run crysis 3. killzone has the graphics crown right now and its in alpha. imagine when killzone goes gold, more crying i guess by fanboys who hates sony
buying ps4 first day.
This a duplicate of the last 100 negative articles about Sony but they keep making it through the approval process.
Pretty dense complaints: If you dont want your friends to play for you, don't use the feature, select isn't gone and can be easily mapped to the touchpad, the controller is more than just a touchpad on a Dualshock 3. Flimsy reasoning, lazy dime-a-dozen opinion piece that bloats the front page.
I really think opinion pieces need a higher standard, it's much too easy to submit really low quality/flamebait articles and hide it behind "it's just my opinion". No offense to the writer, it's reasonably well written, but the actual points are incredibly petty
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I was impressed with the features and games shown. Square Enix was a bit of a let down though.
Same old crap, another hour of the day.
Another "WTF" and "no" from me.
