Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) has partnered with IC tomorrow which has launched the ‘Digital Innovation Contest – Games' where five winners each could get £25,000 to make a prototype and Each successful applicant will retain their intellectual property.
The frustrating Intel Raptor Lake CPU issues continue to make their presence known, this time in the South Korean gaming community.
Epic Games winning its cases against both Apple and Google is shaping the way forward for the future of mobile gaming.
I feel alot of mobile gamers are kids which will at some point probably turn to console or pc. Mobile gaming just doesn't cut it for me.
from eXputer "These multi-billion-dollar cases mean more savings for both devs and consumers. Public reactions to these lawsuits have been mixed, with some in favor/against the points being made"
They lost one, won one, and are about to go do sony. Yeah, Yeah, so where is the win part for gamers? This is about industry dividend regulation and enforcement, and has nothing to do with gamers (Studios will take a larger cut before you get a discount). The win and gratitude should be diplayed by the creators/publishers; way, WAY before the cosumers or a game jurno. Good Grief. Most of this is correct, but who it is really aimed at is misleading in its inclusivity as some kind of shoe-in for future savings/discounts for gamers.
From a business viewpoint, especially small developers these wins are a good thing. But what I’m curious about is the fallout. How would this affect game prices down the road? Will big corp just pass it to the consumer?
Hopefully this will lead to better profits and discounts for the consumer.
I agree with sony should sell digital stuff elsewhere besides psn. I used to get some good deals on Amazon. The amount their being sued for is kind of an issue though. Maybe them selling elsewhere is a win there shouldn't be a dollar figure attached to that. Imo.
A win for gamers or game publishers? Publishers don’t want to reduce prices. They just want the stores taking a 30% cut on game sales. If you can side load games on PlayStation, you will PlayStation price increase and turn the console into another gaming PC. No thanks.
that is great!!! Recently Sony is really pushing it. They try to get every talent the can get on their ship.
That is the way to secure a bright future for your console! Congrats!
It's not just Sony who are partnering in this, there is Crytek UK, Google and more!
Good luck to all the new developers out there!
Oooh, I want to enter this so bad. Any word on a US version of something like this?
