Today, Sony announced the PS Vita TV, a small set-top, budget-priced multimedia streaming station that directly competes with Apple TV. The basic US$95 set gives users the basic streaming utilities they've come to expect from devices like Apple TV and Roku, including Hulu and movie rentals. However, it takes things one step further with the addition of DualShock 3 controller and PS Vita game support.
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
Retro gaming console emulator apps are now welcome on the Apple App Store and can even offer downloadable games.
What I can see from this is that Microsoft has reason when they say X1 has more value for your money because for the ps4 do what the X1 can do......you have to buy the SONY camera, the vita tv and the ps4 and won't be the same because the kinect is better than the SONY'S CAMERA.
And don't come here and say that you can play Vita games......who cares!
Must be really ugly a psp or vita game in a 50" TV.
Why will you want stream this ps3, psp, vita.......for what is GAIKA?
captain, you fans haven't use the ps4 and the X1 and already has conclusions about which is better
If marketed right this should sell it has a good
price point.Other then that i still need too pick up a
Vita come black Friday.
Ok sony just dont go overboard on all the TV stuff
Wow! Playing a PS4 game on my bedroom tv if I want, is freakin awesome. That in and alone has sold me on this thing, not to mention everything else that it can do. Kudos to Sony for forward thinking.
That's my kind of price.
