Sony’s new studio is focused on its virtual reality headset, Project Morpheus
Sony’s got a new studio focused on producing for the company’s virtual reality headset. And maybe I should have mentioned this earlier, but like, isn’t the peripheral’s codename just fucking perfect? Morpheus. Just strap this little bit of technology on, and go to sleep. Forget your life, problems, the world. Check out and write us checks for your eternal, now all-encompassing distraction. Or something. IDFK.
Sony’s Project Morpheus VR headset droppin’ first quarter 2016
Sony’s put a pseudo-release date on their entry in the Johnny Mnemonic sweepstakes. The son of a bitch will be dropping in the first quarter of the year next.
PlayStation Now subscription service dropping January 13
PlayStation Now’s subscription service is coming, finally, on January 13. And it’s bringing a subscription service with it. One of the head-scratchers regarding Sony’s game-streaming service was the fact that initially you only had the option to rent the games. Will this shift in policy get me to sign-up? Fuck nah! But I imagine it will for some.
Maybe: Sony planning female-led Marvel superhero flick for 2017
For all of Marvel Studios’ success, the one consistent drumbeat (understandably) is for more diversity. A female-led movie. An African-American led movie. And while Marvel Studios’ Head Czar comes up with a litany of crap to explain away why they haven’t “found time in their release schedule” for a female-led movie, another studio is going go ahead and get this shit done. With a Marvel character. Before them. Good looks, Sony.
Marvel snags ‘Amazing Spider-Man 4’ vacated release date. Laughs to themselves.
Marvel ain’t playing, BRUH. Over the weekend they announced a fucking avalanche of movie release dates, but they ain’t done. Not at all! With Sony moving around their Amazing Spider-Man release schedule today because the Franchise Ain’t Well, Marvel snagged one of the newly opened dates. While they, no doubt, were laughing at Sony and its inability to do anything as well as them.
E3 2014 MASTERPOST: CLOSE-OUT, ASS-OUT, VIDEOS & NEWS COMPENDIUM
OKAY FOLKS. Listen up. Between the alimony hearings, the drug use, the fact that Feedly went down for two fucking days, and my favorite butt plug melting in my dishwasher (which required an immediate journey to the upper mountains of the Appalachians to replace), there’s some E3 STUFF I DIDN’T GET TO. However, I also posted a fucking fuckload. Here in one batch is everything I’ve caught from E3. Posted, and previously unposted. Sorted by console. Don’t see your fave announcement/game? Hit the comments. I’ll add it. I know I’m missing a lot. Also! Use this space just to shoot the E3 shit. Read the rest of this entry »
MOAR CONFIRMED? PS4 getting PS1 & PS2 games in NATIVE 1080p
All I want in life is to be able to play my old school PlayStation games on my PlayStation 4-Some. In 1080p. Is that too much to ask? (I actually want a lot of other things: a golden dildo with my name engraved, a falcon, limitless supplies of Diet Mountain Dew, to name a few.) Soon I may be getting one of those wishes granted (unfortunately not the fucking falcon).
BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS’ comic ‘POWERS’ becoming TV show. ON PLAYSTATION. Word?
Well then. Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Oeming’s original comic Powers is finally coming to flat screens around the world. It’s been talked about for ages, and well fuck my greasy knobs!, it’s coming. But here’s the interesting thing. The son of a bitch is coming courtesy of PlayStation. Yep.
Sony announces “PROJECT MORPHEUS” VR Headset.
Sony has revealed their VR headset, dubbed “Project Morpheus.” Maybe I’m just old and showing my age, but I don’t really get up for this. If sitting in front of a video game isn’t already a Dystopia Made Real, completely detaching from others in your own house and rummaging around a virtual world seems a final consummation. On the other hand though, gimme the Black Sun from Snow Crash (my usual refrain).
MAYBE: Sony’s Oculus Rift competitor to be revealed this month
There’s a good chance that Sony’s dropping the reveal on their VR headset this month. Getting ready to throw down with the Oculus Rift. In a battle of “Hey, We Took Thing X and Put It in First Person! Wild!”
