Previous Castlevania games have been pretty poor of late, the latest being Harmony of Despair and I won’t beat around the bush about it. I thought it sucked balls. So after hearing that Hideo Kojima had gotten involved in the new reboot, I had incredibly high hopes for Lord of Shadows…and it really does not disappoint.
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.
As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
Bethesda France was made up of roughly 15 people... they couldn't of being doing much
Bethesda France mainly did publishing and marketing within the region
Bethesda France focused on publishing and marketing in the region. And 15 people lost their jobs as part of the closure.
I wonder if this is part of Microsoft's strategy to abandoned physical media or possibly gamepass advertising makes their roles redundant you don't need to market a game as hard when the majority of players get the game as part of a sub which already promoted upcoming games
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.
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
This review is pretty much bang on, such an amazing game and I mean amazing.
and very,very underrated.
This and Red Dead Redemption are the 2 games that came out of no where and surprised me - I think more developers should do the same, which is announce a game no more than 1 year prior to release date and not give us half of the story and gameplay before the game is released.
Good job Konami and Mercury Steam for giving us this EPIC game and looking forward to the DLC.
Spoiler Alert - make sure you watch the ending cinematic scene after the credits when you finish the game MADNESSSSSSSSSSSSS.
then go pick this game up right now. The puzzle solving in this game is something that I missed since Code Veronica and the QTA is minimal and well implemented.
The game took me 18 Hrs to complete and two boss fight will give you a hell of a time to beat.
The only thing that was missing from this game is some RPG elements and an open world because the art style and world is so amazing you want to explore every thing.
This also made me want to play a next gen Legacy of Kain - does anyone know if Crystal Dynamics is still around and to they still own the IP?
I played it and it's good but it still cannot take my heart away from Symphony of the Night. The ending though was a little predictable since they did the reboot and the story is a bit similar to Dante's Inferno. The only thing that surprised me was the last ending scene. What really bothers me is that it offers little replayability other than playing with a Snake skin.
I just completed it yesterday, fantastic game great ending and can't wait for another
