PlayStation 4, Facebook, Privacy Concerns, new Player Profile

Screen shot of the future Play Station Player's Profile showing the player's actual name. SONY 2013

It's been now 3 months since we got that first taste of Play Station 4 and since Microsoft announced the controversial XBOX One. For once, Play Station learned from it mistakes gearing a presentation to warm up the gamer's interests.
Play Station 3 under the slogan "it just does it all" was introduced to us as an entertainment machine that plays games. The presentation of Play Station 4 minus the console was geared to attract us toward the console. It will come with one controller, one headset, Playstation Move dual camera and Mic. All that sound sweet, but there's a new way of playing that worries us those who grew playing the NES, the old school gamers, and specially those parents of the PS3, XBOX 360 and WII generation and is matter of safety and privacy.

PRIVACY CONCERNS

For Once, playstation was the first to unveil a player's profile linked to Facebook together with full name and  picture. Let's see a real life event. Marty004872 has connected his PS4 account to Marty Stewart. He jumps into a Call of Duty Ghosts lobby and get into a shouting match with some guy. This some guy quit the game and jump to the computer and make a search on Marty Stewart a 17yo man. Unfortunately Marty has his father in Facebook. The angry gamer now googles George Stewart and returns an address for the subject. Marty is unaware he has a target on his head.
The event above doesn't represent a real family but may be a real event in the future. Guys like Marty and myself have created fancy names to hide our real self. Connecting our real names to our gamer tags is not the way to go. Let's add more to this issue. I posted a video on Youtube then onto my facebook a MW3 sniping massacre 10 Kills no death. While on YouTUBE I received views and likes, on Facebook it was ignored. NOT EVERYBODY IN FACEBOOK CARES WHAT I DO IN GAMING.
So what should Play Station do? Let's no deny that the new player profile looks futuristic and they should keep it. However, there has to be a little tweek done to the player's profile. When the player decide to connect Facebook, first the player should create a page for the gamer tag. In this case Marty004872 should create a Facebook page under the same name. PS4 should make a tweak to the software, add a drop box where would ask "Connect as:" now Mr Stewart can pick to connect the page to PS4 and still maintain his privacy. Would be nice if Sony worked with Facebook about socializing. Let's say Marty004872 add Xcalibur007828 to his Playstation friends, the next time Marty logs in to the facebook page for Marty00472, Xcalibur007828 should appear as suggested pages to follow. Just like the pages we follow. When Marty Stewart is connected as Marty Stewart this page is not suggested but is suggested when he's Marty00472. I think is a great way to keep gamers connected, busy looking at friends' achievements and postings. OF COURSE that the current feature of showing the Facebook friends who play certain games and are on Facebook should port toward PS4. Currently if you play Black Ops 2 or Modern Warfare 3 you can see who in facebook plays the game. It would only show you the person's gamer tag.

If you agree with the views expressed in this article don't hesitate to tweet it to @sony or @playstation as well as send the link to playstation facebook and youtube page. It will be greatly appreciated

Known issues with Facebook Sims Social: the disocialization

A screen shot of my Sims main home in Sims Social in Facebook

Hello and welcome to another edition of your favorite blog. This time I will go off topic with the blog and will let you learn a little bit more about me. When I made the blog was for inspirational purposes and also sometimes express myself.
I love to read from great personalities like Les Brown, JC Maxwell, and others, but another thing that you guys didn't know about me is that I'm a gamer. I mostly play call of duty, any sport game like NBA 2K12. When I'm not playing on the Play Station I'm playing on Facebook.
Undeniably the most captivating game of the decade is The Sims. One thing that make the Sims appealing is the fact that you can basically create a fictitious life. On August 2011 The Sims social was launched for Facebook. I immediately jumped into this game. I liked playing this game early on, I still like it. But I have been noticing a decline and there's no mystery on why.
Just like anything EA put it hands into. Perhaps the most successful series they had was NBA Street. This was the game to play back in 2002-04. But EA messing things up destroyed the franchise releasing "NBA homecourt) The game seemed to be the same old street ball game but was all cartoon. EA is also behind the Sims and the Sims social. I have noticed great changes in the game. Now I can invite people to my house, starting in February 2012. Is great because it sucks to have a great house and you can't see how others interact in your house. However I can only do limited stuff with the visiting Sim. If you notice the picture above I don't have a sofa, I chose to have two seats in front of my TV. The visiting Sim can't sit because I'm using the seat. After continuous failures I came to realize that my Sim only use one. I removed the other seat via "Shop" and I get the message "I need somewhere to sit". But that's not all.
The biggest frustration of this game is the famous quests. They give you weekly sometimes biweekly challenges for you to accomplish within certain period of times. Sure you should have some challenges but some challenges are ridiculous. Let's start for the ones that have frustrated me and other players the most.
Since Myspace years is known that people don't look at others people's profiles. Some of the frustrations that people have is that to complete a quest you must post it on your wall and pray for friends to click on your links and help you out. I have come to the desperation point sometimes commenting on my own postings and tagging other Sims players. Trying to be a good neighbor I also created a special list in my Facebook where I list all of my fellow Sims players so I can see when they post on their wall. Still the whole "Sims neighborhood" end up with uncompleted quests. Another issue that result in uncompleted quests. Some ridiculous requests that can never be completed no matter what. I recall one for the month of February for some reason the French week was also the sexual week. Here's the problem with that quest. I had to contact couple of female players and agree to start a romantic relationship with my Sim in order to complete the quest even though my Sim is in a happy relationship with the Sim of my real life girlfriend.
I needed to woohoo (Sim for have sex) with 3 different Sims. My friends agreed. Here is the problem, in order to start a romantic relationship with another Sim I had to break up with my girlfriend. Out of every relationships in the Sims the most complicated to develop and I wasn't breaking it for the sake of a quest. More problems. Note the four heads on the left side of the screen with a red text under. If you haven't play the Sims social I have to explain to you that this represent active quests. The one in the bottom is the relaxation week, I have to deal with relaxation week and they start with another quest right away give me a break EA.
Relaxation week also had it issues. Can you explain me how relaxation and kissing are related? For the second stage of the quest they asked me to kiss 3 different Sims. I said this is given, one of my Sim quality is "great kisser" so he has "steamy make out" I just kiss my girl, go out flirt with couple of sims, make out with them, then to avoid romantic relationship get them upset and destroy the romantic momentum. That sounds like a fantastic. NO is not. It happens that make out don't count as kissing in the Sims social. They had "romantic kiss" and "shy kiss" for people I don't have a romantic relationship with  and "kiss" for romantic relationship. Here's the problem, in order to kiss another Sim I was required to break up with my girlfriend.
WTF EA? can you do one thing right someday in your life? Is bad enough that people spend time on your stupid game time that we could have spend doing productive stuff like reading a book, learning a new trade, actually working. I think I have spend around 15 hours of my weeks on your game and this is what I get? Then to make it worse the game gets discriminative and impossible to complete for certain groups. Then to make it even worse I get so frustrated that I wanted to make my voice be heard at EA and there's no way of reaching the studio. No wonder 2K whooped your behind last year with the release of NBA 2K11 and now NBA 2k12 where did NBA Live go? even with the endorsement of ESPN 2K took you down. True, MLB 2K is not their best game because their MLB development team tend to ignore the fans but NBA 2K listen. Anyway EA continue this road since the destruction of NBA street. To me the best game of the Franchise was Street V2 after the destruction of that franchise I love EA as much as I love my headaches and tooth aches.
I think I will definitely stop playing this game and go with the flock to play Angry Birds, seem more exciting than this game that just keep frustrating everybody. How in the F$#$ world cleaning have to do with greek week? This game is getting stupid by the day.

Major pluses for this game

• Truly create an empire by working out all your skills and earning money in everything, build a wonderful house.
• Major big plus. Since we are rich, it sucks staying all year long in the same house. As of March now we can build a house in the beach that gets dirty by beach garbage way too quick by the way.
• Ability to invite friends into the house
• Massive storage room
• Careers, now the Sims can earn extra points when they do tasks related to their career. It focus on four major careers Rock Stars (earn extra points in music) Artist (earn points in painting, writing), cook (earn points in cooking) Athlete (earn extra points in athletic activities)

Big cons

• Trouble with the quests
• Inability to identify that there's two chairs not one sofa
• Windows is the most used operating system in the world. Since the failure of Windows vista people are cautious to move into Windows 7 still and since Windows 8 was announce some people are waiting for Windows 8. This leave people using Windows XP in computers that have similar power to that of my cellphone. Sims social tend to freeze on those computers. It uses too much flash memory
• Discriminate players due to their relationship status catering more to single 

Question I can answer
How can I make people to visit me? My friends complain that my house is too crowded and freeze their system
Here's the thing my friend, when you load a Sims house you load the items present in the house. So this steal more flash memory and force your friend's browser to crash. You have a massive storage room, let's call it the attic. You can store all items you are not currently using into the storage room, this make your house look a bit more loose and is easier for you and your friends to navigate. Placing an item in the storage room will not deplete your house worth. Is items you bought that's your.

Thanks for reading Victor Space followers, we will be back to the regular program shortly

Trayvon Martin, when injustice knocks

I hope you like this video, hope you share it and please leave your comments.
On another note, Trayvon's case really  hit a nerve for future and existing parents. This can be a landmark case it may change our justice system for good. It's sad that some young life had to be taken away, I hope Trayvon's death wasn't in vain. So pass this around if you feel the same.
Another situation I exposed here was that shown in "Facebook parenting for the troubled teenager" a hot video getting even Dr Phil involved. To me, Tommy Jordan took it as far as required, I mean I spend hundreds of dollars getting a laptop to my daughter, then spend hundreds of dollars on new softwares and I find that my investment is being used against me, well yes I have reasons to go mad.
Problems in New York Schools well you just read what I wrote above, teenagers are trouble and they may do anything to catch attention, the news of the moment in New York is sexual assaults in school by teachers, one was found to have sexual content involving children, another one had a solid relationship with a 16yo for many years. Well I think they are now riding on this accusing teachers of molestation when possibly all they did was just look, or handshake or pat the kid's shoulder.

Social Netwoking when too much is just too much: Setting your boundaries

A composite showing the most common networking sites.

 Hello Everybody and than you for being such an awesome audience. I have to thank my followers from the United States and Russia who this month have poured into this blog although you didn't leave me any comment telling me that you was here I'm so glad you did stop by.
I get sick at times with people posting their entire day "GM FBF time to go to work" that's not problem, the problem is next same user 20 minutes later "Grrrr this stupid bus don't show up" two hours later after updating me on the hour finally got to work "grrr I really hate my boss why doesn't she die that $#^*" Why do I need to know that? Really why do you kill yourself that way updating me on the entire day I don't need that, seriously. But you can update on your whole day that's not my business it's not but is your and you better stick to reading this and you will understand my point.
This is just in, this happened after I published my post. Someone I'm getting to know Victoria T from Ohio, she might tell me that statement up there is a little wrong. Just a week after originally publishing this post, Victoria was talking on her wall that she was in tears about something that just happened at work. I know she's reading this and some of you reading this happen maybe know her. That is something you can definitely talk about. Yes she was in tears but she was happy that's why she was in tears and to be honest I would be in tears too. If she likes maybe she share with you in the comment section or not. But it was a very happy posting. I mean if your job don't make you happy, Why talk about it? why beat yourself up about it and get others involved? Shauna from Flushing couldn't say it better. "I better don't say too much because that mean I have to explain something to somebody and the less people I have to explain the better. Once I expose it out there I have people following on that."
My facebook friends think I don't use my account to post just to reply to their comments. In reality I use my myspace, fb and twitter daily and post a quote I found and like it weekly I even post encore of a good note. You know why? It's rough out there, people are mean, the situation is mean and I just want this. When I enter to my facebook I want to be greeted by something good. When I feel down I want to see a good line motivating me to better you know. So why would I post that my best friend quit on me? why would I post that I didn't meet the goal of sales this month? Why would I update on the bad bus service? I know you might want to vent out but you better be careful where you vent out because you might vent out on yourself, you might end up destroying someone's hopes, you might end up putting down someone, and worse convincing others that it can't be just because you couldn't. Why would I post that I had an argument with my girlfriend? why would I start an argument with her on facebook or twitter? OOOH that's a huge issue.
You see, I know some people who post all day long and I'm happy with that. My friend Liza L. from Brooklyn she posts on how great she's feeling, yes she's in pain in the doctor but still happy because she has a good man and friends by her always, how wonderful day she's spending with her grand kids. Those are welcoming postings one day when Liza is feeling bad and just depressed as she's she decides to stop by her facebook she might go back and see how wonderful life she has with her family and friends, she might actually feel better after reading her facebook. Liza I'm not picking on you alone hold on lol. You have to be very careful how you portrait yourself to friends. I know somebody who was going out with a great guy, this guy is a very hardworking man, good family man, good friend, good son, good brother. Well he left the girl because he didn't like how she was dancing, he hated the fact that his family is descent but this girl didn't get along with his best friend and worse she would dance like she wanted to have sex with every guy she danced with. Island dance she said that's normal in the island to dance like that. Well one of my girlfriend best friend is also from the island and she doesn't dance like that unless she's interested in the man. Turns out that someone sent her a message asking her if she wanted to have sex with him. Well she did worse she posted it on her wall that a guy just asked her to have sex with him. I guess my friend wasn't far from reality this girl wasn't the appropriate for him. Because to be honest I would not ask a lady to have sex with me because I know I'm getting rejected, the way she portrait herself is one of these easy girls who wont reject if a man ask them. Wanna have sex with me? As a man you know that a lady wont go to bed with you instantly you have to go through a process first of getting to know the woman, maybe meet first no sex and then let go and do it. To be honest most men are not into that so if you are a woman and the first message you better take a look on how you are portraying yourself on your social site.
Another thing that is upsetting actually disturbing is the lack of supervision from parents to their children specially girls. I have been on social networking starting with Hi5 in 2004 it's a shame seeing girls I know (I can't see those profiles unless I know the person and they invite me in sometimes can actually see some of the friend's profiles) I see these girls exposing themselves in very sensual positions like "all in four" for example prompting indecent and sexually explicit comments from men at times even 25 yo men hitting on 15 yo girls. If you are a teenager and you are receiving this kind of comments, let me ask you something. Is this how you see success? Do the woman you want to become ever show this behavior, Do you see someone of value other than just sexual? Will your "prince" approve of that? will a "prince" just fall in love with you because of your pictures? If this last one is correct I bet you have a guy coming in just for sex. Will your parents approve your behavior? Again some parents are corruptive since their life is messed up already, they are selfish and wont guide their children. Will your teachers and other female friends approve your behavior?
Talking about portraying. Many people get concerned about certain activities like Alcohol and stuff like that. Let me tell you about someone else. My friend my brother Jay A. This guy you check his facebook and most of his postings are related to a soccer game he's playing soon, coming out of work and calling up his buddies to watch a soccer game and have some drinks. Yeah think whatever you want but he's another one doing it good. He's a hardworking man, very good dear friend of mine, at least he doesn't expose alcohol consumption on HIS PAGE. He's ok for the same reasons as Liza life is not easy and at any down moment he might go to facebook and see how well he spent last weekend. You can post all day long but not everything, gez someone even posted being in the bathroom with stomach issues. There's life outside of Facebook and myspace and twitter and if you are posting every hour, every 20 minutes my friend you are missing on a big chunk of life. You are basically living online you better move there. Why do I need to know that you are sitting in the bathroom and can't... Ok that hasn't happen yet but there's something  I'm sure would start happening though if some crazy phone company decide to design a waterproof phone "taking a shower with my boo" Are you serious? I mean people put some limit already. Why in heaven you have your profile private when your life is public anyways? Don't you want some privacy?
A few weeks ago I was eating with a very close friend of mine; we were having a blast. Well since some people are crazy out of the blue we decided to check facebook. To my surprise someone in her network started this big argument with her husband. You see the back and forth these two going at each other. It was ridiculous. You know, I'm not the kind who like getting into people business, she's not that kind of people neither. BUT when you put your life out that easy, you will get people looking at your stuff you will get people waiting to see how this argument develop. I know I know why you don't argue outside of facebook because you have no audience. But there's one thing I hate and is getting my food cold because some knucklehead decided to argue on facebook. What happened to the old times when people would call or text each other and yell what you want them to die from, curse that person all the way to great grand children? Come on people get a phone if you don't have one. Do all this show "I'm gonna leave you #$#" and go play pools together next weekend and take pictures and post on facebook, then not only that go back together. If this happened in secret nobody knew I'm telling you that nobody would think bad about you. But imagine after that whole show you go back together. "look at these two why so much show man..." To be honest I am a happy man with Jenn but doesn't mean that we don't have our issues. We argue... but nobody know nobody needs to know all that and we both care to keep it to ourselves because we know you have your issues too and adding our is not a good idea. Plus once you put your issues out, you are calling for suggestions and unfortunately every suggestion is going to be different. I remember going through this big argument with Jenn. Two friends of my father learned of the issue actually four Advice from a Female "Jenn is a great woman you seem you lost her now. There are more people ahead." next female "Noooo don't hear her, call her take her some flowers and take her to eat and you will see how she will agree with everything you said" (I agreed with this one but didn't need it she called me and we fixed it over the phone. Now Jenn don't argue with me because I wont do this to fix it lol) Guy "No papa don't budge down don't call her in days and you will see she will call you asking you why you haven't call her which means she miss you" guy two "If broken is broken" Notice I didn't put it out there but my attitude in the house was enough to drive me crazy in a minute and get different opinions right away. It drove me crazy to tell the truth.
My facebook is a place of relaxation for me. I don't post my personal problems because nobody will solve them for me and I have nothing to explain to nobody other than my business, what I do for living. So I keep anything negative out of there, I find a good quote that inspired me something I post it. It's rough out there so when things go rough I feel like having a moment for me I go to my phone check my friends' updates I have a great network I hardly see anything negative there from my friends they are very outgoing people and very positive. Even if I stay small (currently 180 something friends) I prefer having good people with me. My facebook has to inspire me in tough moments is pretty much a book of quotes I take with me everywhere. What's the point of being a victim? wait that could be another blog entry in the future. Like Liza, Jay, Victoria they refuse to show up as a victim, they rather inspire some kind of hope on someone, bring a smile on someone's face. In the case of Twitter I had to remove everybody I had. That's another site where people just post garbage calling women by the b-word women trash talking. I don't need that drama. So far I'm following guys like my two business managers, Les Brown, Tony Robbins, John C Maxwell, one of the big leaders in my business and that's all. I don't need negative people with me. I want to grow I want to be somebody, do something special with my life and drama queens and kings wont get me there. Posting my private life out wont get me there, and reading people's private life will just entertain me from what I'm trying to accomplish. If want all I explained (success, be someone special, do something special) and you happen to have drama people around cut them off even if is your childhood friend. I let go 12 contacts from my facebook last week because these were dead ended people I don't need those. I'm dead serious. People like that only bring distractions.

Thanks for reading and I speak to you in a pair of weeks.

Your attitude and Success

Hello everybody I thank you for being a loyal audience. This is my first entry for this year and I'm thankful to have you all here reading me it was a long absence but things happen.
The other night I was playing some video games with my brother. He? well me and him grew up together we were the closest in height in the house. I have 3 brothers but he was the one willing to go with me and play baseball, let's go and try to play some basketball. I have two others but one was always sick to go and be crazy like us and the other one was a baby we can't take him to play baseball with us come on. He was a cool guy we would have a lot of fun, very respectful kid, I hardly saw him doing homeworks and somehow this kid always did average in school. However he started to hang out with the wrong crowd I say. He brought in good values we didn't have. I used to thank God for the food but by myself we never sat on the table to pray and thank God for the food. Surprisingly now I'm doing it that's really good. But at the same time my brother is yelling at everybody,  saying horribly tasting jokes like "hey piece of $#$ how you doing?" that's terrible there.
Well the other night we were playing NBA 2K11 and well I have a bad controller PS3 please check your controllers all of them are messing up the same way. I go for a dunk and the player end up passing the ball in mid air. Most times that would result in turnover, or I would go for a dunk and it would start marking a play I never heard of and now I have to execute it and unfortunately the play ends with a dunk I do it and is 24 seconds. Add that the fact that I'm talking to my girlfriend. He was winning by 18 points with 3 minutes left and one of my best players injured thanks to attempting to make a pass in the air. Why did he started to jack 3 after 3 after 3 it seemed like a 3pts contest. He won by 40 because my defense was bad thank to the controller. I stood up and said I'm not playing with you no more. His answer? "come on bro I haven't been here since Thursday and that's what you give me" what I said to my pal, my gaming buddy, my best friend was even more surprising "Damn seems like it was yesterday that you was here" he was actually out for 4 days.
What I'm asking you now is where are you? are you the one that people can't wait to see you that people love to be around or you are like my brother you are out for four days and seem like if you left yesterday? If you are planning to be a happy person, have a lot of friends, if you are planning to be the go to person, if you are planning to go in business you better make sure you are the one people can't wait to see. A L Williams said that nobody like to be around a complaining cry baby. Nobody want to be around someone with a bad attitude. That's true you gotta make sure to have the attitude that if you go out in business the whole world want to follow you. You have to make sure that if you go away, people miss you. Make sure if you go away for a minute people don't exhale and say "thanks God"
But how you do it? make sure you have a great attitude, make sure to be excited about anything even the $200 dollars check you are getting Friday. Make sure you are a happy person that raise curiosity and people will come to you just to see what are you happy about. In some cases they think you are high on something or something like that. One day I think last month one of my former schoolmate (sorry I don't have your name here) posted this on her facebook. I completely agreed with her and so did 19 who clicked like and other 9 who commented including myself.

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful. - Buddha

Well guys to be honest with you this quote better fit another blog entry coming up. But it helps reminding that you have to be happy in order to succeed.
We all know that you can't be in business by yourself. Business is nothing but a happy person with some products and services to provide. Sometimes like in my case besides the products and services you have a business opportunity to offer. Remember what I said about always be happy? about always be excited about something? people would never know of your business because they will never approach you or let you approach them if your attitude suck. You smell bad, you don't dress properly, you have profane language, you walk by life like if someone owe you and forgot and worse you forgot how much. My friend you will never make it. "Ok Victor I learned that but I've been trying and it feel fake" Bill Whittle a great guy, very successful man in my business said "do it anyway, it would feel weird in the beginning it would feel fake in the beginning but soon you find your groove you put your own stuff and guess what? wouldn't be that fake no more" make it your own, mean it "well Victor I have been trying for 2 weeks and doesn't work" well i tell you what my friend, go and plant a corn seed and wait for it to grow and reproduce. It wont happen right? Nothing happen overnight, success is not meant to be overnight. During this absence I have been working hard on my business, I have been reading books, attending meetings and events. You have to cultivate yourself in order to succeed. "well Victor I'm a grocery owner and all I have to do is open the door and people walk in" Awesome my friend good for you. Now go and yell to a couple of your employees and then yell to some customers and see if you have happy employees tomorrow. Also would help to keep a picture of that customer you yelled at and see if that customer ever come back. You have to have a good attitude at all times even if your business sell itself.
The other day I was riding the bus in Brooklyn. I come in talk to the driver it was the first stop I was going to Kings Plaza mall. I talk to the bus driver, also spoke to him about what I'm doing. The bus starts, three stops later after the driver had this smile he was going home after this trip and luckily he would finish it in good mood. An uncoupled couple comes in the guy first he swipes twice and the woman follow. The driver wants to know who is he paying for since there was a mother with 3 teenage kids she paid four times. The driver wants to know who he paid for and this is the conversation
Guy: "oh no I'm not with her"
Driver: "ok sir thank you but you paid twice, either she pays her fare to me or pays to you because you paid twice"
Guy: "who the &((* you think you are to tell me what to do? this is my wife and you better don't mess with her"
Driver: "Look guys I want you to respect my bus, this is business, you want to play your game? ok but outside my bus"
.....
That couple can't make new friends other than friends similar to them. You can't help it, some people just have a nasty attitude and would want to take you out of sync at any point. You have to be prepared to face them. In that case the bus driver trying to be all professional he ended up being influenced by the perverse couple and he ended up yelling at his replacement too. You have to be strong and counter all kinds of attacks to your tranquility. because there would be people trying to take you our of concentration, there would be people trying to distract you. Certainly you have to keep certain kind of people away if you want to be successful, you have to be willing to say no to certain people if you want to become someone meaningful. Stay focused and you will see it happening, welcome rejections, welcome difficulties, dance on the face of adversity and you will get stronger. Smile to life and success will find it way to you.

Thanks for reading and I see you in two weeks
