Oh goodness, I didn`t think it`d get this far with crowdfunding. Now that Sony is dipping their toes into crowdfunding, it has me worried that more big companies might follow suit, and who knows what else could happen. Possibly consumers having to show interest by backing projects instead of companies trying to sell consumers their products... I don`t like that in order for Sony to give their employees more freedom to take risks, that consumers have to show it with money. Why not let employees have some of that freedom without the crowdfunding? Higher ups can listen to these ideas and make a decision on whether to further the idea or not, and not with crowd funding... Or maybe just share the idea openly with people and hear their opinions on it. Just... not this crowdfunding thing, please.

I feel this is possibly telling the condition of the company if they are opening crowdfunding to take risks on more innovative ideas...


first you say Sony is a big cooperation then you turn around saying they are poor? Trust me this is a great concept and its allready praised by many in the Bussines Media, if Sony built its own Kickstarter platform this could be huge for them.

 

I think crowdfunding is better than what we have now.

For example. Look at EA whos closing down Maxis and shutting down the C&C free to play game without even asking the consumers? So this is the better model than crowdfunding? And Nintendo could also ask if people want to have another metroid or eathbound? I dont see these games happening currentley despite people saying they want them for the 1000ths of times since years.
