In the wake of PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale's unveiling, Clint evaluates its creative fertility and the nobility of caving to the fans.
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.
what is the point of all this?
Wow what a troll!he knows all Sony had done and claims to copy but doesn't mention that ssb it self was copied from a game called the out foxie,the rumble pac was built-in to their controller instead of being optional,though Nintendos does pre-dates Sony's by a couple of months and he doesn't acknowledge that ps move exsisted in prototype form before the wii and some of the demos were incorporated in to games also the first joy stick was on the atari console,he never seen anyone talk about ps eye/eye toy,only thing he had to do was look on youtube and see all video he wanted,this guy sucks!
How can one person write so many stupid things in one single article. Two joysticks is the corner stone of the way we control games in three dimensions and FPSs. Lots of people knew what the Eyetoy was it's only this gen that tries to ignore it so they can make excuses for Kinect and try to make it look like an original idea. Ice Climbers and Mr Game and Watch are obscure and are not 'endearing' as the person put it. More people remember who Crash, Gex and Parapper are then they know who Ness, Marth, Ice Climber or Mr game and Watch are.
And finally I really don't know why people continuous b***h on and on about the failed partnership between Sony and Nintendo. Sony asked Nintendo to help them and it didn't work out. That doesn't mean Sony would NEVER had made a PlayStation console. They asked Nintendo to help them and proved that they didn't need them by not only making a system but beating them at their own game. So the stupid fanboy myth that Sony would NEVER have had a console without Nintendo is pure BS speculation.
People seem to forget that the PlayStation consoles once had 150 million plus owners.These characters are not obscure to ex-PlayStation owners. Not as obscure as Pit, Ness, Marth, Ice Climbers and Mr Game and Watch. I could bet my head that if I asked any gamer who Crash Bandicoot, Sly Cooper or Parapper is I am certain I would get an answer then if I asked them who Ness, Ice Climber or Pit is. I was a Nintendo fanboy and I didn't even know who Ness or Ice Climbers were. And Pit hasn't had a game in twenty years. So who is obscure now?
"Sony asked Nintendo to help them and it didn't work out" IIRC Sony asked nintendo if THEY wanted their help, they were trying to get a partnership with nintendo to make dvds,cds,etc for their home consoles. Nintendo refused and kept to cartidge.
I probably didn't word all that correctly but sony didn't go to nintendo for help. they went to nintendo to add the ability for consoles, by nnintendo, to read cds. I'm pretty sure its even in the wiki though this is the sum of it.
Great comedic article. This is the true art of trolling.
