Yep here is to looking at you THQ, thanks for the wonderful memories. In the past big names like Sega and even the legendary Atari lost their stacks. Newbies from small time fund-raisers have recently come into the game, Occulus, and the Ouya to name a few. But none are as big as the current chip leaders at the table: Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft. So why would Sony raise the stakes so high on a hand that isn’t made yet?"
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.
Sony still have to unveil the actual console which is an event in itself & no doubt they will have a few more unseen 1st-party exclusives that they are saving especially for E3.
I thought that semi-reveal last month was pretty inspired as it has the whole gaming world talking and has left us wanting more. E3 is going to be the best in years!
Other than the fact that people wouldn't be b***ing about not seeing the console, I don't see why they should have waited.
they did it at the right time and most gaming websites like Destructoid, GameTrailers, IGN and even Pachter agrees with it.
Yeah, because months of hogging the spotlight and of getting into mindshare is a TERRIBLE thing. /s
The articles just get worse and worse.
Though now they have room to go into detail about the system, rather than simply announce it.
It is just a box after all.
