Playstation Home (what, you’ve never heard of it? Go look at your PS3 menu screen) was… well… never as huge of a success as Sony had planned. But why not? Let GoGoGamer take you through the steps as to how Playstation Home did not live up to the expectations that were expected of it.
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.
Failed? I still see millions logging in each day. Still see loads of content every month. New games, items, features etc. Plus, Home is making a profit.
This articles fails.

Ok after reading parts of this article. This guy needs more than a Secondlife"
This is not secondlife wasnt made to be secondlife.
There are some down sides to home but theres a awfull lot of good sides too.
home maynot be for everyone but youll be supprised just how many there is in home.
As for ps3 being for hardcore gamers great thing about sony is just like the psx ps2 b4 .they cater for every style of gamer. Like home gives you a vary of choices styles weather be choosing to buy a apartment that suites you or choosing a fancy dress.
Apart from the kids running after the girls and having some bad languag. Doesnt mean home bad place there are alot genuine people of all ages.
Some days i like to chill chat. Some days ill go on have game pool. Have a laugh start shaking my booty dressed as a rabbit.
Its a community with many things to try.
I think you need to be greatfull at what sony have done with home and maybe just maybe. Get a life"
