Rumor: New PS3 Firmware for E3, Includes Gamer Skill/Networth.
Dutch/german website ps3spot.de had the opportunity for a short interview with Stefan Dettmering, PR manager of Sony in which he is asked about the upcoming firmware update and when is going to be available for PS3 owners, also asked about how well the PS3 is selling since it last launched last year and more.
It is possible that Sony is planning on including a gamer skills level in the next firware update for others to see and comapre to friends, based of percentages or levels. It will work by calculating how good you are at certain types of games.
Here is an example.
Sevr786(Gaming Skills)
Racing Skills……. 92%
Strategy Skills….. 80%
Sport Skills….. 0% (no data)
Intelligence (Puzzle Probably)…. 24%
Fighting Skills… 28%
Type of Gamer: DRIVEEER
Gamers Net Worth: £4,800,200
(All the above is based of loads of different things such as performance, trophies e.t.c i think. WELL I HOPE SO. I have like 500 trophies. Yeh am good ! Not)
Another tipster, calling himself “seven-biho” claims that he is a game developer . He claims that the above details is real and, to prove it, he left a picture in the forums..
*I think it looks photoshopped.*
