Sony has submitted a patent for a little robot friend who’ll mech your life great again.

Amazon is working on a device that can read people's emotions. Something which could save many a relationship in the future.

Video games are many things. They’re cathartic, they’re social hubs wherein you and friends can go on an adventure and talk smack to one another. They’re the perfect exit from the mundane reality of life, a power fantasy for the weary or a test of skill for those who wish to prove themselves in digital arenas and establish a new persona. Other times, games can be proper bastards.

Capcom wants to raise the bar with Devil May Cry 5 next year though, as it emphasises a game that it calls a bridge to the uncanny valley of action. To do just that however, the publisher and developer is looking to push what’s possible with digital acting to a whole new level of expressiveness.

Wish you could know what the other person was feeling in a conversation? Soon, you might be able to do just that.

Final Fantasy XV director Hajime Tabata hopes that his game will also resonate with your emotions, and leave you all snot-faced at the end.

Assassin's Creed games are fun, but they haven't really made me feeling anything in a while. Perhaps Syndicate will be the one to shake things up thanks to this pretty cool sounding music.

The latest Deus Ex game seems to be interested in getting a handle on your feelings when dealing with complex themes in that game, and it has a plan to do so.
