PSN Changes and Game Violence Bill In OK - Press Pause Daily

PSN making some changes and a violent game tax on tap in Oklahoma. SHOW NOTES: Story 1: So if you are a Playstation Network member, you probably got an email on Monday stating that there would be some changes on the way for the system. According to Sony, stating today, your account will no longer be called a Playstation Network account, but would instead be called a Sony Entertainment Network account. Now before you got and get worried that you’ll have to create a new name, or password, and go through a whole complicated process, Sony has said that this is just a change in name only. According to them, “This helps us get closer to our goal of establishing a global comprehensive network platform of services across games, movies, music, and more." So I guess Sony is looking to create more synergy across their entertainment properties. Only time will tell if the move will be a good one. http://www.gamespot.com/news/psn-accounts-undergoing-name-change-6349822 Story 2: So another politician is trying to attack violent video games, this time in Oklahoma. Democratic state representative William Fourkiller (which is a fairly ironic last name don’t ya think?) has introduced House Bill HB 2696. This bill would levy a 1% tax on any video game that receives an ESRB rating of Teen, Mature, or Adults Only. This is on top of any other existing sales tax. The money raised would go to create two new funds: one to get youth involved in outdoor activities, and one to with bullying prevention. According to Fourkiller, games are a major cause of obesity and bullying in our society, but since they make a lot of money, could be part of the solution. Of course, the game industry isn’t taking this lying down. Dan Hewitt of the Entertainment Software Association says that he is disappointed that politicians are still trying to attack gaming in a way that is patently unconstitutional. He also said that "Taxing First Amendment protected material based on its content is misguided." So a lot of politicians REALLY don’t like violent video games. They keep trying to control them, and it always ends the same way. You’d think they would learn their lesson by now. http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/40065/Oklahoma_bill_proposes_extra_tax_on_violent_games.php That will do it for your daily dose of Press Pause.

After a long drought, we finally have some new releases. SHOW NOTES: GAME 1: First up is the sequel to Square Enix’s 2010 entry in the long running Final Fantasy Series. Final Fantasy XIII-2 picks up three years after the end of the last game, with series protagonist Lightning having disappeared into another world. The game will feature Lightning’s sister Serah as the main character, as she searches for her older sister. There is also a little bit of time travel that will be involved in the search. The game will feature many of the gameplay elements of the last game, along with a variation of the Active Time Battle system. Bottom line, if you love role playing games, especially ones with Final Fantasy in the title, then this is an obvious buy. GAME 2: Next we have the latest entry in the long running Soul Calibur fighting franchise. Soul Calibur V takes place 17 years after the end of the fourth game, and features many new characters, many of whom are the children of previous characters. There is also a guest character in the form of everyone’s favorite Assassin, Ezio Auditore from the Assassin’s Creed games. Some of the gameplay mechanics that bogged players down in the last game have been removed. There is also a thorough character creation and customization tool. There are multiple fighting styles, as well as 20 different stages to battle in. Added to all that is competitive computer AI, as well as the ability to battle your friends and foes alike from around the world with the game’s massive online features. The stage of history has been set again....do you have what it takes? GAME 3: And lastly we have a very interesting action game from Konami called NeverDead. This game features a wise cracking demon hunter named Bryce who was cursed with immortality 500 years ago by the demon king Astaroth. Now in modern times, he hunts down demons for money and revenge. The gameplay makes use of the main character’s immortality by letting the player survive horrendous injuries. Over time your limbs will fall off, and you’ll need to roll over them to reattach them. You will also have a human female partner who isn’t immortal, so you will need to make sure to protect her from harm, even if it means taking damage yourself. Add to this a large combination of guns and other weaponry to help take care of your enemies. All in all it sounds like a very interesting take on the action game genre, and could be a lot of fun. Add to that music from heavy metal titans Megadeth, and you’re sure to be in for one kick-ass of a time. That will do it for your daily dose of Press Pause.
