PCN : "There are recent rumors floating around the web about Chrome making its way to PS3. While Google has yet to officially confirm these rumors, many people are still hoping it is true. So let’s take a look at how this could be possible."
Google has agreed to implement a tiered fee system and expand access to alternative app stores in a settlement with Epic Games.
The legal dispute between Epic Games and Google has been going on for quite a while, but it could be close to a solution.
Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney notes that the mobile gaming industry is "largely broken," and blames the 30% tax levied by Apple and Google.
Man has been saying this for ages and knows full well the only thing he wants is more money at Apple and Google's expense and absolutely none of this will result in lower prices for the consumer.
He expects the digital equivalent of opening up his own store inside of a Walmart or Target. It's absurd.
And he feels absolutely entitled to it, in a too-big-to-fail sense - because Unreal Engine is used by so many developers, banning Epic would hurt those developers relying on their tech, which would be super unfair to the developers.
Thank goodness you are there to defend the small guys Google and Apple. You're so brave, Christopher!
Yeah, I'm totally defending Apple and Google and not explaining how another company is just as greedy. That's the big takeaway from my comment, Apple and Google good, only Epic bad. Yup. I totally didn't make it about the fact that this man just wants more money and isn't doing it for the consumers. Nope. Not that at all. I'm just praising up Big Tech. They're my one and only love in life. Please recognize me Big Tech Senpai!
The epic games store charges a 12% tax and has been losing money for 5 years...that sounds dysfunctional.
It's a play to attempt to win over the market so they can then realign pricing with what Steam has in the long run. The problem is they are doing only that and not actually building a better software supported platform on PC. Essentially, they're throwing money at the problem, not actually trying to compete by providing better service.
Lets just hope this is true the PS3 browser well sucks....i use chrome on my laptop and its great lets hope the make it a little more PS3 friendly
i really hope Sony does get the google Chrom it would really be a great thing to have Sony has made there system better and if they change the web brower to google chrom everything would be Great
This could be a great partnership right there... all the sony products like HDTV, Blu-Rays, PS3 and the Sony new tablet could included Google Chrome as a browser, which in the end means a great business for both parties.
Recent rumor... its been a umor since chrome was released to the masses
Would be great. I use Chrome on Win7 and Ubuntu.
