GATT - GamerX: So, at E3 almost exactly one year ago to this date, I laughed my ass off when Sony announced the PSVita. They had just come off their hacked days, and people really didn’t seem to swallow what Sony was saying since there was a lot of backlash. I personally was one of these people, and I hadn’t owned a PS3 in about a year as I only pick one up when a super exclusive comes around that I want to play. Fast forward to this year when I had a Vita dropped in my lap. I was skeptical, could this really be a second coming of handheld gaming?
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.
Good review.. Sony has no choice but to drop the price on the memory at least.. thats probably the biggest hurdle i had as the system totally feels like its worth the $250.. more original games needed but its starting to get a sturdy library of 1st party games.. minus resistance.. that was a rushed game & needs work
