The first time I picked up the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller, I thought: it's like a little living thing in my hands. I was playing Astro's Playroom, a free PS5 game designed to highlight the new controller's features. But, I also wondered: How many other PS5 games are going to take advantage of its wild, subtle features?
Immersive magic, but without a headset I'm used to wearing VR headsets, but the PS5's first accessories are immersive without anything to wear. Team Asobi's previous PlayStation games were mostly VR-focused, but the goals with the controller's haptics are similarly immersive. "You know, we've been playing games for so many, many, years and it's sometimes difficult to get surprised again, right?" Doucet says of the challenge. But he saw a lot of potential in the adaptive triggers and haptics right away. "There could be lots of features that sound cool on paper, but you can never quite get them to deliver anything. But these ones were really, really quick to deliver."
Those crazy triggers: Rock climbing, squishy fish I was particularly surprised by how the PS5's triggers can stop midway, vibrating with feedback but also seemingly transforming based on what you're contacting. The closest thing the PS5 does to simulating touch happens when rock climbing in Astro's Playroom, where the triggers give feedback and even lock in to create the feel of a ledge.
Last week memory chip maker Micron Technology warned of tougher times and said it was cutting its capex investments in fiscal 2023 by over 30% to a total of $8 billion. Nvidia Corp and Intel Corp both delivered much worse than expected earnings in their latest reports.
The images come after a different AI that works in the same way produced bizarre pictures of the 'last selfie ever taken' that showed apocalyptic scenes of people in front of nuclear blasts, with rotting flesh and total devastation behind them.
From 2015 to 2020, the owner of China's number one messaging app WeChat 150 investments at home totalling $75 billion, compared to 102 deals worth $33 billion in overseas markets, according to Refinitiv data.
Popular YouTuber Dream has been a household name among gamers for years -- but they never knew what he looked like. Until Sunday, when he revealed his face in a long-awaited video that earned more than 1 million views in under 45 minutes.
On PC gaming platform Steam, Cult of the Lamb has seen hundreds of thousands of downloads, and while Wilton can't reveal the exact figures due to Massive Monster's backing by UK-listed Devolver Digital, pre-sales numbers show the game has already recouped its investment costs.
"We believe Tencent will continue to make reasonable investments to acquire quality gaming content and talents and deepen partnerships with top-tier studios worldwide in order to step up its investments and presence in overseas markets," said Citi analysts in a report in early September.
Elsewhere, Tencent also seeks to increase its investment in and make deeper forays into Southeast Asia as it sees the region - home to 650 million people - as having potential to replicate the success of China's internet boom, said two of the sources.
He stalled and joked around, hiding under a blanket and a smiley-faced mask, eventually dropping the mask about a minute and 17 seconds in to reveal a dark-haired young man, who introduced himself as Clay, without giving a last name.
He may not have shown his face before, but he's certainly faced some controversy, including a cheating accusation in 2020 involving speedruns. It's a long and complex issue that has a whole website devoted to it, if you're in need of more details.
The Ubisoft deal comes just after deep-pocketed Tencent in June acquired Copenhagen-based Sybo Games, the developer of hit mobile game Subway Surfer, and in August took a 16.25% stake in Japan's "Elden Ring" developer FromSoftware.
"I think AMD is showing that nobody is safe from the post-pandemic PC downturn, and those inventory corrections are also impacting the company," said Anshel Sag, http://www.evergale.org/d20wiki/index.php?title=Bisexual_Megan_Barton-Hanson_Steps_Out_In_Leggy_Denim_Shorts chip analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy.
A playground of demos "A lot of games usually come from a narrative or a desire to tell a particular story. And in our case, the story is all about the mechanical device and its possibilities," Nicolas Doucet, Creative Director at Sony's Japan Studio, says about Team Asobi and how it made Astro's Playroom.
"Following discussions with game developers, we realized that 'sense of touch' within gameplay hasn't been a focal point for many games in the PS4 generation," says Takeshi Igarashi, VP of the Peripheral Design Department at Sony Japan, over email.
Dream makes YouTube videos and streams on Twitch and is best known for his Minecraft videos. His multiple YouTube channels have millions of subscribers, with 30.4 million subscribing to his main channel. He won YouTube's Streamy award for gaming in 2020 and 2021.
Team Asobi was sent its first DualSense prototypes back around early 2018, says Doucet, when the group was still busy making the PlayStation VR game Astro Bot Rescue Mission (which is one of my favorite PSVR games of all time). A dedicated DualSense team split off and started brainstorming clever things the controller could do.
