Ubisoft has predicted that Sony will launch NGP (PSP2) at an "attractive price", and expressed confidence that the device can woo a "huge" market of smartphone gamers.
Speaking exclusively to CVG, Ubisoft's European MD Alain Corre complimented Sony on NGP's "unique offer".
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?
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.
Sony has patented to add multiple dialogue modes to let players switch between how many conversations with NPCs they want in the game.
Sony is like the only ones outta the 3 that has atuff like like this pop up changing thing in ways.
$299-330 for the non-3G SKU. $370 for the 3G ones.
I really hope that the non 3G versions comes out at 299€ cause 249€ is just wishful thinking
probably 350 with 3g
Sony should not price the entry model no more than 300 bucks. They must stay competitive in price with the 3DS. If the cheapest price is 350 which I hope and I am pretty optimistic it won't be; they will be committing suicide with that price. No matter how good the software and hardware, consumers have proved this gen they are not willing to pay an arm and a leg for what is initially considered a gaming device.
Everyone who thinks it will be over $350 for the wifi only needs to wakeup. The prices will be $300 for wifi only and $350 for wifi/3G. This is a new Sony and if you think it ends there your wrong the move will transition to the PS4. Give it time and you will see a from the past and a new a Sony with a new competitive nature. They are in it to win it and the mistakes that they made with the PS3 in the past is in the past. Come E3 you will see of course a ton of games for the PS3, a price cut for it and you will see the PSP2 NGP at a $300 price range for the wifi only. Forget what michael pachter and others have to say. You will see with your own eyes.
