That's a weird acquisition it seems like all they do is turn 2D images into 3D VR experiences

Eonjay46d ago

They say its for ML based image tech but if this somehows means we get PSVR I'm all for that. Perhaps killing two birds with one stone.

Sony closing Bluepoint is the biggest letdown in recent gaming history. It hits as hard as when sega went multi platform.

They can reopen bluepoint again today, my trust and faith in them has never been this low.

They close BP when they were the experts of remasters and remakes. In today's gaming remasters and remakes happen often and gamers seems to like them. With all the IP's Sony owns they could have made BP kings of remakes or remasters. That's low risk high reward. They could have set up fan polls to see which games or series fans wanted to see get the remake or remaster

That would have been enough work for next 20 years. Shadow of the Colossus is one of the absolute best remakes along with demon souls. Jak and dexter series could have been remade, God of war trilogy could have been remade by BP and Santa Monica could focus elsewhere.

I have seen this Sony before they are the obnoxious Sony who think they can do whatever I juts hope it doesn't take another PS3 situation for them to wake up. Jim Ryan over Shawn layden was wrong, hermen over yushida was wrong and Andrew house retiring so soon was bad for playstation. PS4 was peake Sony teams working together not divided. See how they courted Kojima after he left Konami and now this Sony is just doing things which they used to be against

Gamers 2 years ago: "All Sony does it put out remakes!!! Sony sucks!"
Gamers today: "Sony closed down the remake studio! Sony sucks!"

Maybe its a plus side. Pssr2 or 3 in psvr and maybe creating better graphics without costing to much latency. having dlss 4.5 on your console without buying a £4000 graphics card

Pyrofire9546d ago

I don't think hyperbole works well without being HYPER and a little creative, without that it just sounds like you're wrong. a 5060 is "only" $350 and runs DLSS 4.5 just fine.

Eonjay46d ago

it funny because when even the say better on PC, they are not refering to a 5060 system. As you know all PC gamers rock 5090 cards. When we tare talking about price, we mean 5060 systmems used.

CrimsonWing6946d ago

Wait… we just closed a couple studios… make this make sense.

Eonjay46d ago

Exactly, they traded employees. While the cynical person would say they traded devs for ML... at least they traded humans for humans... for now.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio19d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing19d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9219d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit19d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing19d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9219d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

To be fair, there are also human made games that release and lack any fun at all either.

jznrpg22d ago

But all of the great games have been made by humans

jwillj2k422d ago

One is by choice, the other is a feature.

PRIMORDUS22d ago

Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.

CrimsonWing6922d ago

It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.
