Wtf has that got todo with anything. Centre Right wing conservative here (UK) yet I'm playstation first and foremost for a long time. For a fee simple reasons but primarily the exclusives and the wider range of genres they are part of. Same goes for any of my friends with similar political views.... so...

That isnt what the patent describes. It describes a system where the answer to such a question eould be that players tend to use these weapons and armour, and were on average level x when beating the boss. It would then offer you advice on how to procure those weapons and armour and we know from other patents provide links to walkthrough and youtube videos.

In the case that you can also acquire materials or weapons via microtransactions then it would tell you. A good exampl...

Read the patent the article headline m/article is incredibly misleading.

You are cherry picking however it days that may be the case. For example you could ask how to unlock gta online diamond casino heist. The ai informs you that you unlock it by acquiring the arcade. The cheapest of which costs x amount of ingame currency" it then adds that if you don't want to grind for it you can purchase incgame currency if you want." However that's a specific instant where the developer has chosen to use a micro transactions system. Equally you could be pla...

Want to point out patenting the idea and implementing it or releasing it are totally different things. Sony patent many things as do most companies that never actually see the light of day.

I hope it is abit larger rather than smaller and hotter. My ps4 sounding like a jet engine in the more demanding games is something if an irritation.

Why? Sony will be there as in having booths on the show floor- they did last year. They simply wont be having a keynote press confrence. They will instead host their own press confrence certainly there is one on feb 12th there may well be others planned later in the year and I'm sure the december event they didnt hold last year will happen this year aswell.

Zelda and the switch are a totally different situation compared to this; it was one title and almost no one had a Wii u anyway. There is a distinct difference between abandoning hardware at end of a gen and having next gen only exclusives. It's more about support for the OS and patches etc

Erm what? High level execs leaving? Not above the normal rate of staff turnover no. As for developers one dev does not a game make it's the directors and writers that forge a game and developers usually move about between companies and consoles all the time.

@nucky64- they have often taken a loss initially to build install base and make money off software. Expect to see them go this route again for first 1-2 years. They will sell at a slight loss and once someone has bought 2 games be back in profit. I reckon.

12th of february is playstation meeting event used to announce ps vita, ps4 and ps vr details. So seems reasonable to assume it is for ps5. This was announced in october.

I mean year on year ps4 outsold the 360. It came out a year later and was kneck and kneck bot to mention the 30% fail rate on early box's that ms refused to cover so alot of people had to rebut their consoles. Everyone inwas at school with at the time that got an xbox (most people) had to buy 2 or 3 of them across the generation. No reason not to believe that was not fairly common .

Sony and microsoft have a contract signed to work together on game streaming and sony is going to be using Microsoft's servers to run ps now. Microsoft doesn't want to beat sony or eradicate them. More ps5's sold will mean more money microsoft makes.

@darthv72
The last three systems play out like this. 
PS2: 155m - PS3: 87m - PS4: 106m 
XBox: 25m - 360 - 86m - XBO: 46m 

It's important to remember the ps4 launched a year after the 360 and the 360 fail rate and refusal to cover the RROD means alot of those sales were people replacing a broken console. I reckon the actual player base is more consistent between generation. The 360 definitely had the largest of the 3 but I am unc...

@obscure_observer it is very well known in the industry that sony is incredibly hands off when it comes to game development. Providing feedback and access to their expert internal coding team to help with technical difficulties or optimisation (ICE) and other feedback when the devs present and update sony on development progress. Santa Monica's game was cancelled because it was seen to not be working at all in terms of story and direction etc. They had restarted it several times and it j...
