I wouldn't call it original anyway (my point was more like "Gaming company makes a thing and Sony somehow makes their own version of it), but the Kinect included technology that didn't exist in the EyeToy camera, most notably the depth sensor that still makes it a viable option for 3D scanning. However, I do have to admit that I shouldn't have said Sony "copied" it... they actually went with a second RBG camera instead of an actual depth sensor, which is the more economic way of achieving a similar result.

I also forgot them adding HD Rumble to their DualSense controller.

And once they get innovative themselves, we get stuff like Wonderbook. Does anyone remember that thing?

I remember the rumble addition to the Dualsense controller. Initially, Sony said it couldn't be done, then they went and did it. A similar setup was being able to access the BIOS in-game on the PS3. Initially, it wasn't a feature, but Sony had to catch up to Microsoft, so it got in.

Didn't sony make the eye toy for ps2

I guess I'll have to add that I meant the depth perception capabilities of the camera, not the concept of a camera itself.

Time for Sony to come up with yet another overpriced proprietary storage.

But if they do things right, a proper sony handheld would slap.

i would be interested in this if it focuses on offline content mostly. if its tied to a bunch of online stuff and forces online features upon the user then its hard pass for me. i prefer to play 99% offline content.

Nothing is offline, if it can be online. That's why we have refrigerators that connect to the internet. Sony wants that data.

Tbh, I have zero hope that Sony will make anything good in that regard, they have become trend chasers, it's so sad, I hope Nintendo and Valve will crush any competition in the handheld market, we don't need Sony and Microsoft trying to push down their boring industry practices in that market...

Even if their device would get hacked, I would probably not be interested in buying it...

My Vita says "frack you mofos for abandoning me!!!".

Thank you to all of the talented homebrew devs for keeping the device alive.
