    Reminds me of the Gran Turismo days when an elastic band around the trigger was free money on Test course.

    If its an opt in feature that helps you when you are stuck it could be nice. Knowing Sony tho they’ll make sure it sucks and gets shoved down your throat

    GTA5 let you skip sections that were too hard for you (or too badly designed) and I am sure so did many other games. From a game design perspective this is nothing new whatsoever and won‘t change the medium in any way.

      Except your GPU fans will start screaming when you press skip.

        This stuff will be for cloud gaming only. So unless you have a really funky phone with giant fans that won‘t be the case. The data centers that are making your energy bill explode will do the heavy lifting.

    How is this new or original in any way!? This has been a feature in many kinds of games, for ages

      that was my question, and they explicitly address it in the article

      the AI would be trained on gameplay videos, instead of being a pre-recorded sequence by a developer

    Lol we’re back to kids playing on arcade games with no coins in it thinking they’re playing super well

      Younger siblings playing Mario on the second controller in one-player mode.

      But then you have to unplug it for duck hunt.

    Remember when Atreus wouldn’t shut the fuck up in God of War (you know, a FIRST party Sony game) and would tell you the solution if you got stuck? That was perfect. We don’t need AI bullshit.

    So just a video then without the game

    I dont see the issue, I would wait for my cousins to visist to get me past hard points in games as a kid, this wouldve let kid me who was new to using a conttoller finish games that I never touched again and never will.

    They should change their name from Sony Interactive Entertainment

    Does anyone remember where games would respect the autonomy of the player enough that they’d actually let you lock yourself out of an ending, where there was an actual game over state your decisions could lead you to?

    I still remember the point where the pile of notes my sibling made for Riven (the Myst sequel) was taller than the 6 CD jewel case it came in.

      Also the Blaster Master and the Game Glitches Legacy Sequel anti-AI two part episode. Which is also extra ironic because in the end they glitch the Spider Man games on the PS5.

    So, are they going to train it on TMNT for the NES that was basically impossible?

    I read it as “when players suck”, which isn’t far off…

    The puzzles in Sony games are already easy to solve and even then they can’t have you think for more than a few minutes before npcs start telling you how to solve them. Who does this benefit?

    Sony is a true pioneer at inventing new reasons to not buy their shit.

    Right after about 10 minutes of a tutorial that insults you.

    "What, you don't know how to play games? Okay, I'll show you how to play this game after trying to educate you how to play the game"

    Might be down for this if it supports Ghosts ‘n Goblins. Or Hotline Miami 2. 😵‍💫
