"Gaikai recently commented on Sony’s acquisition of their company—and in sum, they’re quite pleased. Although their lips are sealed as to their future goals, it appears that they will be working closely with Sony while continuing to improve their cloud-gaming service. "
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.
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?

I want Planetside 2 now.
There will still be a playstation and a disc but I think we will see demos via cloud gaming and psn/ps1/ps2 games with more to come in the future. North America has a lot of catching up to do when it comes to bandwidth and costs before full on cloud gaming in a ps4 world is a reality.
Are you guy really hoping that the New PS4 be the new improved Onlive? Do you really want all your games streamed to you via a network connection?
I am staying with M$ because I like they system. IF they go that route, I will be on steams in a hart beat. I used to be a PC gamer. I prefer to stay a console gamer, but I have no desire for any type of Onlive system.
I only see this working for games that are quick play events, games like some of the smaller arcade games. But I play big immersive games that I need to work in an optimum environment (minimum load and lag) and I need to be able to play them off line when I feel to.
