Karam Elahi from SpawnFirst reports: "Sony just accomplished an amazing feat over Nintendo, considering that the PlayStation 4 has barely been out two months, and the Wii U has had a substantial over-a-year lead since November of 2012. Per most recent VGChartz numbers, The PlayStation 4 already has 5 (1 first party and 4 third party) titles that have sold at least a million copies each, compared to the 4 first party million seller titles that Wii U currently holds with distinction."
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.
Agreed. Blizzard recently banned a college Overwatch 2 player who's dependent for saying "shit." Pretty harsh.
How rediculas really. You can't say a word that's allowed in most PG films and prime time TV but the game is based around killing the enemy team using guns, explosives etc.
It's just backwards.
What your talking about is called block list
In 2006 a spaceship dropped of the playstation 3/xbox 360 i say that that generation was the last great gen with game functions/tech that has yet to comeback
Anyhow the playstation 3 if you block listed a id they could not talk to you in chatroom with either text or voice. But that was pre mind fucked 2018 when people were more human than sheep.
But hey gta 6 is coming out billion dollar budget without a single player custom character creator and without singeplayer coop off/online something saints row 1-3 had on the xbox 360.
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 genuinely get a bit worried sometimes when a friend says something that could be offensive In a party
Because I have no trouble believing some bans would happen when in a private party for saying something wrong
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
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
PS4 is all set to dominate this gen. Those PS4 software sales are really impressive. Hopefully that translate to more games.
Anybody else having problems connecting to the PSN store. This is some bs. My PS4 says the connection is fine but can't connect. My X1 is on Live just fine.
Im not worried once 2014 ends with Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Bayonetta 2, X, Donkey Kong. Those will have fantastic sales, and also increase hardware sales significantly on Wii U. Thats not even including Super Mario 3d World, New Super Mario Bros U which has fantastic legs. But overall GREAT JOB SONY.
Shadow Fall at 1.2 million worldwide, nice.
Awesome hopefully the new infamous follows this trend and goes on to sell just as good as the game looks phenomenal. Also most of Nintendo's games like NSMBU and Zelda WW have sold so much id because they were bundled 3D world on the other hand is doing ok ;)
