Playable slice of Wolverine circulating online

Nah. PS6 will be their last traditional console if that. Beyond that, I see much more focus on streaming and subscription services to allow their games to be accessible from anywhere. Eventually, networking technology will allow for very low-latency gaming which will further popularize streaming and effectively spell the end of gaming dedicated devices.

I'd say it's very possible that in 15-20 years, you'll no longer see Playstation consoles.
While plausible that's a proper nightmare scenario, so I hope you're wrong.
Streaming services only (just as always online and digital only) would translate with me going full time retrogaming.

Literally would look at this and go "movie looks like shit too much green those crosses mean its a christian movie i'm OUT"
So accurate, captured the vibe perfectly and gave me a good chuckle.

you think companies will eat the cost of tens of millions of $600 machines?

These are not your typical netflix servers. each one of them have to have the premiere gaming GPUs and CPUs. They will pass that cost down to customers in the form of releasing $600 consoles. Probably $800-1000 by then rather than do it themselves.
 
Other companies have paid these ransoms. There's absolutely no incentive for the hackers to lie and leak anyway.

I don't think companies pay them in general because the feds tell them not to, but I bet every single company that has dealt with this has thought that they should have just paid.
I'd like to know which major companies have paid ransoms. The files, videos are already out there. Duplicated and stored. Paying a ransom does nothing.

Insomniac is going to have to live with these leaks and tighten up security.

how in the hell could hacker download 2tb of files unnoticed
That's not a lot of data if everyone on your team is on the internet, downloading and uploading shit.

Insomniac's biggest problem is network and server segmentation. Why are personal files, game demos and company spreadsheets all accessible from the same hack? This says to me all of their virtual machines are clumped together and Insomniac employees play fast and loose with their shared drives.
 
This remind me of the infamous Half-Life 2 code leak. Rememeber that the game was delayed more than 1 years because of that, no complaint if Wolverine will be pushed back heavly because of this leak. Really suck as a situation, people that are cheering because wanted to see couple of half hassed animations and gameplay set pieces in a game that basically everyone already know how would have been because how the hell would have it been if not as a third person action are the worst. And the same that will complain when the relase internal date will be pushed back.
I do recall that Valve lied about the state of the game back then and it was nowhere near as advanced as they claimed at the time. I don't think anything was delayed because of the hack itself..

Eventually, yes. Once every device can stream with no problems and you can reach 1-2 billions more customers, they will eat up the cost of building and maintaining the infrastructure. They will mostly partner up with companies that already have a cloud infrastructure in place because building one from scratch is prohibitively expensive but in a world where more and more stuff is moving to subscriptions, I believe that it's just a matter of time for gaming to do the same.

Yo, I wasn't impressed by the last leak. Wolverine looked like a pussy. Someone said they wanted a detective Wolverine, I guess.

So..color me impressed, looks like we got us Weapon X.

Aside from his character model, looking forward to this, now.

Don't people ever get bored of this type of 3rd person over the shoulder action games ?
It's always so weird to me how this criticism is only ever leveled at 3rd person OTS games. Do people ever get sick of fps games? Of 3/4 view RPG or strategy games? I mean, it's literally just a type of game viewpoint and it only ever seems to be leveled at Sony games. It's a bit ridiculous honestly.
 
At some point you wonder if Sony would have been better off paying the ransom
I say yes... but Let's wait and see how marvel responds. it's not Sony's fault they damn sure are liable. This effects future deals, and now the competition sees what marvel offered and can leverage

A leak this massive (1 terabyte of info, future projects, release windows and personal contact info) is a lawsuit brewing

It's kind of funny how these 'PC master race' dudes will talk shit about every Sony exclusive, but when there's an opportunity to pirate and play them, many of the same people instantly do it.
 
He is in MS pockets. Don't expect professionalism.
stop whining, the media has been biased towards sony for years. Just search the internet to find haterism when Ms announces Xbox games on PC and GamePass. But the same media remained silent when Sony started copying. And we're not talking about one website or writer, but several. So let's stop with the hypocrisy.

Paying a ramson will just make the hakers want to keep doing it to get paid. Not paying the hackers lead to shit situation like this, but Sony can now put the FBI after the hackers untill they are in jail.
 
This is kinda wild tbh, leaks happens all the time but when it's this early someone could steal the code and tweak it a bit and use as foundation for their own game.
 
Clearly going to launch on PC day one. Otherwise nixxes would've been porting it.

Told you all that this was the end game. And not just for gaas games.

Also lol at the whole thing. They got greedy and paid for it. Karma is a bitch.
Isn't this just how games are developed? Admittedly, I don't really know. I just assumed they're made on PC then a package is exported to run on consoles.
 
Devastating leaks. This is why it advisable to atleast have a good budget for your cybersecurity program/strategy
That's true, but even companies that are supposedly experts in cybersecurity get breached. It just takes that one careless employee to ruin it. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link and all that.

Pretty easily? In the grand scheme of things for a company where workers have to download 10s of gigabytes of assets regularly that's not much.

Lmao they do realise that these things are sent out all the time to people who use torrents without a vpn? Fuck all will happen unless you are a repeat offender. Use a vpn, no problem.
BS scare tactics.

Rogers Cable would send out warnings all the time years ago when people were downloading movies. But it does scare people. My sis in law was concerned they'd get penalized. My bro brushed it off. Nothing happened.

Funny thing is I had never got those warnings ever with Rogers.

Yes. Back in the day, you would develop more of a game on an ctual dev kit. Now more of the development is done on a pc and the dev kits are for debugging and profiling and things like that.
