It was Don Cheadle in Ocean's Thirteen who said it best. "You don't do the same gag twice, you do the next gag." Sony tried to capture the magic of E3 2016 again this year and they failed. Sony is earning the reputation of a publisher that can tease games great, but can't deliver in a timely fashion.
Say what you want about Microsoft's press conference, but at least they came prepared with release dates for their big Xbox One games. Sony came with trailers and a lack of dates.
Blizzard writes: "After careful consideration over the last year, we at Blizzard have made the decision not to hold BlizzCon in 2024. This decision was not made lightly as BlizzCon remains a very special event for all of us, and we know many of you look forward to it. While we’re approaching this year differently and as we have explored different event formats in the past, rest assured that we are just as excited as ever to bring BlizzCon back in future years."
How about you not hold Blizzcon anymore period. You fucking POS company. I really hope Blizzard would just die.
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.
Embracer CEO demonstrates a masterclass in mental gymnastics in latest interview.
"I'm sure I deserve a lot of criticism, but I don't think my team or companies deserve all the criticism. I could take a lot of that blame myself. But ultimately I need to believe in the mission," he said.
OK give us Kingdoms of Amalur 2 with AAA budget and we will accept your excuse
I still liked Sony's conference better.
Some of these opinion pieces sound like some random fanboy IGN or N4g comments lol
"Say what you want about Microsoft's press conference, but at least they came prepared with release dates for their big Xbox One games. Sony came with trailers and a lack of dates"
You mean some of those xbox games which are 2018 titles (same as the big PS4 games too) and a few more that are coming this holiday (like some PS4 games too)?
Sony announced all the games that were coming this fall before the conference: Uncharted TLL (tho ot oppened the event), GT Sport, and Knack 2. That is why you didn't see them in the conference
2016 Recycled edition.
Throw in some ambient music and some dudes hanging off the walls.
As well as some drum playing dude who looked like Druckmans brother.
So it was more of a good thing then
At least it's not E3 2006 2.0
