Every company has a story heading into E3 each year, they all have something to prove, something to show off and something to gain. At the Los Angeles congregation of gaming's biggest developers and publishers, each will try to outshine the other and "win" E3.
For Sony, they have the luxury of being able to sit back a bit given sales of the PS4 are still going strong worldwide. They may even be able to announce they've crossed the 25 million mark at their press conference.
Complacency will cost you big time in this industry however (take for example... well, any major publisher at some point or another) so while Sony can let their so-far lacking 2015 line-up slide, they do need to give people a lot of reasons to be hopeful for 2016, and maybe beyond.
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.
Hoping No Man's Sky gets a release date

4. the last guardian is officially re-announced as a ps4 only game
5. gameplay for gran turismo 7
6. put your money where your mouth is with project morpheus. show us big games made only for it.
i can't count, i know it's more than 5
1. Syphon Filter comes to PS4
2. That Cancelled game Eyedentify comes to PS4
3. Gravity Rush 2 for Vita

5. Project Morpheus games
If I see this, then for me Sony has won E3
1. New Syphon Filter
2. GOW4
3. TLOU2
4. TLG
5. A real KZ (not like the crap KZ:SF dished up)
6. GT7
7. Crash Bandicoot (Still Dreaming) and of course
8. More on U4
I want to see No Man's Sky, Rime, and The Tomorrow Children all get release dates. I also want to see more of Wild and Abzu.
I would also like to see Guerilla's Horizon, Uncharted multiplayer, Mass Effect, God of War 4, Gran Turismo, Persona 5, Alienation, Hellblade, Street Fighter, Deep Down, What Remains of Edith Finch, Media Molecules new game, whatever Quantic Dream is working on, a small teaser for TLOU 2(unlikely, but would be very sweet), and something new from Sucker Punch. That's more than a mouthful, I know, but I'm very hungry.
