Sony deputy president says cyber attacks are an attack on the fabric of society
Sony deputy president Kaz Hirai has called for joint worldwide effort to counter growing cyber attacks.
In an interview for the Guardian, Hirai said that in today's world all companies and organisations in the Web world are victims of cyber attacks, regardless of design, security and software architecture.
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.
there not only attacking sony there attacking everyone its the world against hackers.
Fight the good fight, Kaz.
Sony never should have went personal and targeted a single person by bringing them to court.
Companies like Apple, MS, Nintendo all know piracy exists on their systems but instead of attacking the individuals hacking them they just increase their defences to stop it from happening again.
Even though what Sony did was right they should have played it cool, now the hackers won't stop till they are bored which is likely never.
@Uncharted3Goty
No I'm saying that, if they protected themselves in the first place any attack wouldn't have hurt them.
A good defence is a good offence.
I hope those hackers get f*cked over.
Its not only Sony that suffered.
I motion that from now on hackers be known as c*nts. And before anyone argues that all hackers are "not teh same" i'd like to point out that I don't give a f*ck.
