Entitlements: PS3’s Answer to Xbox 360’s Achievements?
Sony entitles you to some rewards for playing their games online with their, err, Entitlements.
EGM‘s recent podcast (which you can listen to by clicking the download below – forward to 10:13 to listen to this PlayStation3 tidbit) talks about Sony PS3’s online service rewards system, much like Microsoft‘s Achievements for the Xbox 360’s Live service. The podcast says Sony is still looking into what the system will be called but that they are looking into dubbing it as ‘Entitlements’. The whole system is still being worked out and there’s still no tangible notes as to how the rewards will be reaped or how they can be used. The podcasters (who also happened to be the magazine’s editors) however made some interesting points, like making the points ‘worth something’ – like a free classic game download.
How about you, what do you want to see in Sony’s online gaming service? What do you want these ‘entitlements’ to grant PS3 users? Do you like the term ‘Entitlements’? Don’t be shy, share your views and suggestions via the comments.
