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.
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.
No trophy or achievement system is far from the Switch's biggest problem
Achievements and Trophies will be huge factors in a lot of consumers' decision in what console to buy a multiplatform game on. Nintendo neglecting such a market proven feature will mean that most multiplat will continue to sell less on their device.
I'm an old school gamer that has been playing since pong and early computers like commodore and Texas instruments.
Trophies, achievements and all that extra fluff mean absolutely nothing to me.I play a game to have fun and to beat it like chess.I only worried about high scores and time when it unlocked something useful in a game. But if trophies are removed from PS4, I wouldn't miss them.
For example, I just played and beat Inside ($10 sale) and enjoyed the experience. Very fun game just like the companies previous game Limbo. Nothing about the game made me thing about some trophy popping up. Some gamers may like finding every item or collecting every trophy but overall, they add nothing to the game. Nintendo not having any won't make Zelda or Mario Odyssey not fun.
How did some of you play games before trophies and achievements were added?
One less feature that the other BIG 2 have. So yes it does hurt
