Sony is coming out with the psp2 (ngp), playstation phone, and playstation suite, all to boost its mobile presense, what does it all mean?
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.
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.
I think this was a well written article...no flaming in this one from what I could see and the writer makes a lot of key points. Sony is definitely trying to get a strong foot back in the mobile gaming bizz and the psp2 (NGP) is definitely a grrrrrreat (like tony the tiger) start. Bravo Sony Bravo!
What does it mean, it means....
Technically, PlayStation Suite isn't about just putting games on mobile platforms but on any platform.
As far as their focus on "mobile" gaming, I wouldn't say they're focusing on it so much as attempting to grow their business model to suite the future, which includes portability in data, functionality, and gaming capabilities.
So? anything and every piece of content that is on the ps suite is available on the ngp in addition to its real retail library its more like sony trying to make more money,they arent particularly focusing on it
This should be filed as OPINION, not article. If it was an article, they'd have quoted a Sony rep saying that the company was focusing their efforts on portables. This is just some writer giving his thoughts on Sony's direction, and may or may not be true. Just because they're making an actual effort to launch their next portable console with the best chance they can give it, doesn't mean they're focusing on home consoles any less than they used to.
