Sony's PlayStation Mobile still promises to loosen up the PlayStation brand with added partnerships with Asus and Wikipad, but it isn't a wide-open platform yet.
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.
It has support for a handful of Android based devices, It needs to loosen up platform restrictions badly if it's to become anything more then a niche marketplace.
It has a long long long way to go before it comes anywhere close to even shadowing iOS and the Google play store.

"That's something we're looking at, it's on the road map. We're looking at a timeline for that," he told Digital Spy at Develop in Brighton.
"We're actually waiting to get feedback from the development community to see what they want, or what areas of PSN they want to be ported across."
Simonetta added that free games is also something the team can offer over time, with the service only accepting free-to-play games from launch.
The team recently revealed that PS3 support could also be in the works if touch controls are figured out.
PlayStation Mobile is an open, cross-platform digital distribution service for PlayStation Certified devices, including Vita and supported Android phones and tablets.
During Sony's E3 2012 conference, the firm renamed PlayStation Suite as PlayStation Mobile and revealed HTC as a PlayStation Certified partner.
PlayStation Mobile has yet to be given a roll-out date.

Playstation mobile will take Sony to the top.-This is my prediction. I am talking about back to making $$$. Like back in the day.
I have to disagree with RUSH. Restrictions is what sets it apart from others. If you let anybody in, is just another store filled with bad games.
i was excited for this but, i read from someone developing software and they were saying that developing for playstation mobile is going to be limited since sony wants what ever gets published to work on everything playstation, so from the vita to the crappiest sony phone to support apps for playstation mobile, which is some pretty crappy phone, i forgot the name of it.... hopefully it changes though.... who knows

this device runs the Tegra 3 Chipset

"so from the vita to the crappiest sony phone to support apps for playstation mobile, which is some pretty crappy phone"
pretty crappy phone?
look sparky, I do not know who's feeding you that diatribe,on what ever website you been reading, but i doubt very much their credentials are that good with statement's just like you just said. Hacker site maybe?
LMAO, the kind of site that never wants to work with Sony but wants to try to get around NDA's and not go with the Official SDK , with Sony support forum's, that kinda site?
LOL!
what you and many other's are not grasping, is what these mobile chipset's are really capable of.
would you call the PSVita, crappy in its hardware?
because, if you did vs many of the existing top end smart devices including the iPAD 3, the PSVita even has better hardware than that iPad 3 device and is much cheaper to boot.
but what you are also missing, is exactly what these smartphones that Sony's put out into the market, some of the best smartphones there is, hell the camera sensor is pretty good that other companies smart phones are purchasing their Camera cmos component's off of Sony, that include the iphone 4s, and the iPad has sony camera's inside of them.
the Tegra 3 chipset support's DirectX10.1 you know what's funny is even the PS3 and the xbox360 hardware do not even support the full directX10.1 support. what's even more amusing is this year Mobile ARM Cortex chipset's even support DirectX 11.1 and Shader Model 4 and higher.
those crappy phones you just said that Sony put's out,those crappy smartphone's have more robust hardware than the d@mn Nintendo Wii.. this is not conjecture, this is 100% a fact.
the fact that as you said a crappy Sony smartphone, mean's you know less about what's in the d@mn smartphones than you can even put out a very viable viewpoint on its capability's and your post shows that right off the bat.those crappy Sony smartphones as you just claimed has more powerfull chipset than the Wii, must mean the Wii is so far down on the list of hardware that it's below crappy..is that what your saying?
because the Wii is a very good system for Gaming, but these chipset's even in the lowest smartphone's today are running upwards of 1 GHz and over 2 GHz and higher, have more ram, and have more dedicated VRram, Hell the Nintendo 3DS has 6 MB OF DEDICATED VRram, but yet the PSVita has 128 MB of dedicated VRram, with Most smartphones running 64MB of Dedicated VRram or Higher. Look what the orig. PSP was able to do with only 4 MB of dedicated VRram!
Crappy hardware indeed..oh brother
