In a little less than 2 weeks on November 15, Sony will launch the PlayStation 4 in North America. Despite everything that’s going on at the company, Sony Computer Entertainment America LLC for some reason acquired the domain name TakeTheOath.com. According to WHOIS records, the name switched hands this week from its previous owner to Sony. It’s anyone’s guess what “Take the Oath” will be.
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.
Sea of Thieves is the first Rare-developed game to launch for a PlayStation console, and Sony was heavily involved in helping the studio bring the swashbuckling pirate romp to its flagship console.
Out of curiosity could any of these ms games going to ps5 have been leaked by Sony themselves? Not Sony but someone at Sony
sony isn't about to let some console wars get in the way of trying to make microsoft become a third party dev by showing them that they make more money with them than without them. of course with that in mind they'd help them. it's also doubly so because microsoft are bringing what is considered a popular game over that can also make sony money
Nice.
Still don't want it though.
Tell me Killer Instinct is coming to PS5 and then we'll talk.
"All signs point to the hardware becoming less and less important to Microsoft."
Less innovation and competition. People act like if MS went away life would be better but it would just mean you have one less choice as to where to spend your money. If Sony became the defacto home console provider and Nintendo the handheld, then these companies could limit what you get and you would ultimately have very little choice but to support them if you want to play games.
I was a video that suggested that Steam could potentially get into the console market if Xbox ceases to exist. They already had the Steam Machine(?), and they have the Steam Deck for the portable market. I’m not in the pc space at all so I wouldn’t know if that would be a realistic statement.
No Xbox future I am going to guess Microsoft will go down the path Sega choose and be a publisher/game developer with their in house studios. Or sell off their in house studios and just go back to making os for PC's. I highly doubt the second part. Microsoft like any company wants to make money. So if Microsoft did say pull the plug on Xbox I see them going down the path Sega went. And utilize Xbox as a brand and not just as a console. I can see the name of XBox being mainly a brand after that. And maybe with the game you see published by or developed by Xbox studios.
We will have to take an oath for our loyalty to PlayStation xD
I already took the PS4 oath when I pre ordered the only console to consistently provide 1080p 60fps!
Something else that Sony will drop in its gaming bag of goodies? I really like the way they can come out of left field.
It could be a marketing push for the PS4 but I think it might be a game. Take the oath sounds more like a plot device/marketing push for a game
Oh the systems launches on my payday! Good thing I just paid it off on Friday. Amazon switched me to the PS 4 DS edition pre-order after Watch Dog was delayed. Probably will take the day off, sell my PS3 for $100, and see about buying a game or two, nothing really I want play or stand out for me yet. I already own BF4 on the PC, probably Madden 25, and Kill Zone if I can get KZ3 ending out of my head.
I get paid a third paycheck this month around the 29th, I think that's Black Friday weekend. Debating on picking XB1 if any in stock, or buying one of AMD 290/290X video cards if manufactures come out with heatsinks.
