Confirmed: PSVR 2 will use eye tracking from Tobii.
EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.
Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.
EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.
What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.
"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."
Yep, EA is disgusting.
Microsoft & Xbox have shut down Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks to lay off more workers, insinuating that they're not in the game anymore.
They're headless for a long time because closing tango isn't exactly a good move
Everyone's acting now that game companies care about games and Xbox is committing the Ultimate betrayal, they are all like this and you have just been quiet about it for far too long
I wonder if Microsoft do pull out of the console market that it might open the door for valve to relaunch the Steambox. Competition is good for the industry but Microsoft don't even seem to be trying anymore.
“Your game has won some pretty significant awards and is a show piece for where we want to go in the future.”
1 hour later.
“We’re gonna have to let you go. You can’t cover our 100 billion dollar acquisition. Oh and take your awards too 👍🏾”
Mighty Eyes has confirmed that its time-travelling remake Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate will now arrive on 12th September 2024.
I remember hearing that they were having dealings with Tobii, but it's awesome to get confirmation.
I think many gamers that have less experience with VR won't necessarily understand the impact eye tracking will bring. This is a huge moment for VR and a literal game changer. Arguably more so than the move from HDD to SSD.
Excited to see it in action!
Checked out the company and they have a 20 year track record in eye tracking. Everything from games to cars, smart move on Sonys part.
This is a great get for Sony (who will be working with the best in the business) as well as Tobii who is speculating that the deal will represent 10% of their total revenue in 2022 (FY I assume). This is leading some to speculate a Q1 '23 launch for PSVR 2.
Ok, now please sell me one.
The cool thing about it is that it's future proof. Eye tracking can be used on any future update of PS5 if Sony chooses to make a mid gen refresh.
It's also ready for a PS6 console as the headset will be using the power of the console and not some limited mobile processor.
If streaming gets fast enough some time in the future, Eye tracking is ready for that as only where you are looking is where processing is necessary.
PS VR 2 is ready for awesomeness against the naysayers wishes. But the eye tracking guarantees long life of the headset even if Sony moves on to a future, smaller headset.
