SFG writes: E3 2010 was supposed to be Sony’s grand showing, but instead someone spit on that fuse and turned the firecracker into a dud. Weeks before E3, Sony was going on a sequel announcement spree, and speculation rose to what was left to be announced. The sad matter of the fact was Sony really didn’t announce anything. It was a tech demo, and their conference would have been better suited at GDC. They showed off the already announced Move titles, and only Sports Champions will become a franchise, like its own Wii sports. My gut feeling is that the other titles that they shown, The Shoot, Lights out, and so on, do not deserve retail releases as they look like they really don’t offer much depth.
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
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 I saw was a spetacular Dead Space 2 exclusive content which i was rather happy since ITS GOING TO BE AT FUCKIN NORMAL RETAIL PRICE $59, AWESOME plus Medal of Honor with Frontline remastered and at HD for Free thats simple some insane content and i hope that they keep coming.
I did realize that i didn't have any reason to still have the 360 since Sony its getting some love from third parties and doing that partners program, which made me sell my 360 which was only for multiplataform games.
Sorcery made me say "Ok i'm sold" when even Nintendo Wii at 2006 didn't made me say that, with a brilliant demo at stage which made use of Move at it's fullest and boy that thing got potential.
And finally Twisted Metal which was absolutely epic FOR ANY die hard fan from PSOne and PS2 which was almost dieing for ANY combat car game.
Seriously, the only one LACKING some serious announcements was Microsoft, no games, no exclusive content not even more investment at XBOX LIVE aside ESPN shit.Can't it be more lame?!
I'm just happy that i could sell my 360 before anyone got notice that a slim was coming. Sold it at a good price.Thank god.
Sum up of E3:
lmao, sony had the best show.
This is going to turn ugly. I've learned over the last few years that E3 just doesn't have the same pizazz that it once had. While the announcements of what's coming later in the year are exciting, I think that this year everyone knew what cats were in the bag. I wasn't really surprised by any of the big three.
oh, come on now. Nintendo and Sony had the best conferences. i was glad to see Nintendo back on form and Sony showed stacks of stuff. what E3 did this guy watch?
Ninty and Sony brought the awesome sauce!! seriously sorcery and zelda ftw!!
MS brought casual controlerless control from the 2000's (with reference to eyetoy)
