A new job listing by Sony on Gamasutra may be yet more evidence of a PlayStation 4 reveal at the February 20th event.
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
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.
Guerilla Games posted a job for artists specializing on medevial architecture and majestic castles
I think Sony would have made a statement if ever the PS4 was not to be announced, given the incredible amount of hype there's been lately.
"See the Future" and now "The Playstation Evolution"
That's clearly the announcement of the PS4 the 20th February :P
They're looking for a "Senior Director in Brand Marketing of Home Consoles".
Who would have tought of that? Finally! Their marketing could use some new blood, I've seen so many great games this generation ending up unknown & underappreciated because of sheer lack of marketing. WipEout, MAG, Starhawk last year, all deserved more attention, in the first place from Sony itself.
Interesting will be nice to see what the ps4 is capable of Finally!
though i will not be getting one speedily, Ps3 has cemented it's self as the best console for me, up until 2006 it was the n64 as i was still playing that OVER the consoles from the next gen (ps2,xbox,gamecube) on a frequent basis, but now i have so many great games on ps3 i don't miss it but i do have found memories...up at 3am in the morning playing mario kart 64 with a case of the giggles laughing when one said....''look at donkey kongs doo doo flick on his head'' we actually thought it was hysterical it took me a week to realise its really not that funny =') the good old days ah
