PSU writes: In a new twist to the rumours that just won’t cease, a picture of Crash Bandicoot has again emerged on a Sony-controlled Twitter account.
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 announce it already
It's up to Activision on whether a new Crash game will be released. It hasn't been exclusive to Sony since the PS1 days and I don't think it has ever been as good since then.
EDIT: Did I really get a disagree with the fact that it's up to Activision?? If so, you obviously don't know that Crash Bandicoot is owned by Activision, not Sony and not Naughty Dog.
I hope we start to see some old names come back this gen. MW FPS games are getting old now lets see some Crash, Banjo ect this new gen.
I kind of see this as a troll by the Sony's Denmark Facebook team because of the recent rumours that were squashed or just some crash games being discounted or free on the store for Christmas (I. E. Nothing).
Though if crash does return I don't want Naughty Dog to do it. I think that studio has moved on from platformers. They are a different studio now
Naughty Dog did say wait till early next year to see their upcoming project(s) ;)
