There was an email that Phil Spencer and Matt Booty had a plan to spend Sony out of business. So they spent big alright
And here some of you are who wanted the gullible Shawn Layden to buddy up with these people who wanted to do exactly that. Jim Ryan saw what they were doing

Seeing this makes me laugh so hard at people like Rino, that MBG guy and Pyo. I hope this is a wakeup call to people that their outrage is just for engagement on this platform.
Either play social media or get played by it.

Meta’s cuddly spy called Muse has exposed private conversations by making links to shared chats publicly searchable. Predictable.
When someone shared a conversation, Meta created a web link with the title of that conversation. Those links ended up in publicly accessible records where strangers could find them.
Security firm Claroc discovered more than 6,800 shared conversations with a single search. Some contained sensitive personal and business information, including a loan application, a bank fraud alert and confidential company documents.
Anyone who found these links could open the conversations without a password or permission from the person who shared them.
Meta says it has suspended the sharing feature, but records of the exposed links remain publicly accessible.
💡 Meta should shut down this service. It’s riddled with security vulnerabilities and poses serious risks to everyone’s privacy, including people who don’t use it.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t use any of Meta’s products. If someone gives Muse access to their emails, messages or other private accounts, highly sensitive information about you could end up in Meta’s hands without your knowledge or consent.
If someone shares conversations you’ve had with them, or talks about you in messages Muse can access, Meta will learn who you know, what you’ve said, what you’re thinking, your emotional state and your personal vulnerabilities.
That kind of information is being used to build detailed profiles and social graphs about people who’ve never used Muse or agreed to share anything with Meta. You’d have no way of knowing what information had been collected about you or how it was being used.
And because Meta is a US company, information it holds is subject to demands from US authorities.
This is an extraordinary invasion of privacy, including the privacy of people who’ve never used the service.
This is why PlayStationn, Xbox, and publishers have kind of ignored this in my theory or haven't been as vocal. People still don't understand this. Wait until one bug occurs and your inconvenienced then you just lost the "oooohs" and "ahhhhs"
Any time you are modding games you need to understand you are entering the wild west of gaming. Nobody owes you anything, it's almost always free, and nobody is obligated to give you technical support. You're on your own. And while many people, like me, are willing to help you, we do so on our own time and at our own expense.
With so many people new to modding many seem to think it's the same as a commercial market where they are owed customer support or that their product is guaranteed to work and if it doesnt they get mad and want to talk to the manager. Well there is no manager Karen.
Don't be that guy. Don't be the Karen of modding. Have some respect. We're all in it together.

I think Sony / PlayStation needs to go on a PR spree because at this point no one knows what they stand for. They have a loyal VR fanbase. They might as well just sell off the hardware branch of PlayStation and just make games so they can be the content company they want to be.

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY will stream on NETFLIX only in December, as part of the $7-8 BILLION deal the company has with Sony.
It’s expected to be the most streamed Netflix’s non-original film of all time. Sony BTW also produced the most streamed Netflix’s original film (KPOP).
We are with you all the way PlayStation! Let's make this happen!
Sony has enough IP's to stand on thier own like Nintendo especially if brought back on PS6 handheld.
All this with 3rd party makes them a bigger force in gaming.

People who are prone to motion sickness should not be running VR media platforms and/or speaking for the VR community.
It's like having someone with peanut allergies operate a peanut factory. Like you can't even enter the facility without dying bro.
I liked one post about AI vibe coded projects and with a simple refresh, wiped out everything on my feed about about Sony, PlayStation, Meta, VR, smart glasses, Apple, Samsung, JLO (Jennifer Lopez) and more. @DrBlackRat I regret liking your post. Feed is now filled with AI doom

I will forever cherish Sony's electronics and the lure, the vibe, prestige, and stigma associated with owning them. 🥹
I guess it's time to officially choose a new hardware brand to fanboy about. I'm thinking Meta or Samsung. Thoughts?
Sony is skipping CES (Consumer Electronics Show) for the first time in 2027 as it continues shift to focus on entertainment:
"We continuously and strategically evaluate our approach to events and communications based on the needs and priorities of our diverse business"

Some that I have alluded to and hinted at have already come out or at least been officially revealed. Several of them were revealed a little later than I expected but they still came (See: God of War 2D Sons of Sparta, Days Gone Remastered, Patapon, Everybody's Golf Hotshots, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, Okami 2, etc) but many of them have yet to be revealed and are still in development, especially for the Next Generation PS6.
Hideaki Nishino is the person I have supported and advocated to achieve the position he now has, as President & CEO of SIE/PlayStation.
In my conversations with fellow Analysts, Executives, & ADR/Shareholders these were the reasons I supported him:
🔵1️⃣ An understanding & focus on PlayStation Console Hardware as the Primary Platform Priority.
🔵2️⃣ A nostalgia for Classic PlayStation Games from the PS1 & PS2 Generations and a fondness for Co-Op games.
🔵3️⃣ A gamer with a love For Single Player Games such as Bloodborne
🔵4️⃣ A Japanese executive that has been with Sony for years and appreciates the culture with an understanding of what worked in the past, what's happening in the present, & what plans can be made to reach a better future. He has a great vision to guide the future of PlayStation, with an appropriate amount of caution and flexibility to overcome challenges.
🔵5️⃣ An in-depth understand of what made PlayStation Great in the first place. He desires to end off of the PS5 Generation strong with several great games and hit the ground running, with a clean slate and amazing line up of games, for the PS6 Generation.
I was excited to hear that the guy I wanted was picked to become the sole CEO of SIE and I enjoyed listening to his comments at last year's Business Segment Meeting.
As I said previously, despite some unfortunate rumors and news, there is a bright future ahead for PlayStation and I greatly look forward to this year's G&NS (Games & Network Services) Business Segment Meeting & the next PlayStation Games Presentation later this Spring (May/June)!
You Won't Want To Miss Them!
