Argentina is Barcelona of international football

HOW'S THAT A PENALTY? 😅

[HF World @hfworld_]

🇦🇷 In the build-up to the World Cup, Argentina have been awarded penalties in their last three games:

🇿🇲 Penalty vs. Zambia
🇭🇳 Penalty vs. Honduras
🇮🇸 Penalty vs. Iceland

Deja vu?

[The Touchmine | 𝐓 @TouchmineX]

🚨𝗗𝗜𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪: Argentina have received as many penalties in their last 3 matches as Portugal have received in their last 22. 🤯

[Mu. @FutbolMuu]

Argentina really got 2 penalties in their 2 friendlies before the World Cup has even started and the funniest part is both of them weren't penalties.

Every team at the World Cup should be scared because they're going back to back with the referee's help again.

We just shared with our team the realities we need to navigate as we work to reset the XBOX business. We won't succeed by hiding hard truths, nor will we succeed by doing the same thing and expecting different results. See the note here: https://t.co/IahtBNzwnR

Asha Sharma says she wants Xbox to be ‘the number one gaming and entertainment company’ by 2030

Xbox exclusive games: “We're looking at that very closely. I think we have to be very thoughtful about each title and how we want to think about it, and learn from similar cases in the industry”

“My mandate is not 30% accountability margins, it’s not enterprise software margins, it’s to be the number one gaming and entertainment company, and what’s what we’re going to go do.”

“If you think about it, Microsoft has invested more aggressively than nearly anybody in this category over the last six years. We’ve bought Activision and Zenimax. We’ve invested in our core platform. We’ve invested in hardware cycles. We invest in subsidies even when we’re losing money because of memory and storage.”

“I mean, I don’t know anybody in entertainment who wouldn’t want Call of Duty, which is now grossing in more revenue than the Marvel Cinematic Universe,”

“Who wouldn’t want one of the top three apps in the world with Candy Crush? Who wouldn’t want World of Warcraft? And who wouldn’t want a team that for 20 years has been able to create predictable hits every single year? So I love Activision Blizzard King.

“Look, it was bought at a time before ChatGPT, was bought at a time when our strategy was predominantly on the the the core console, was at a time when we were right in the middle of Covid, so it’s hard to say how to think about those decisions, but I think these are incredible assets and we intend to continue to invest in them.”

“So we’re long on gaming. We’re long on Xbox. We’ll keep investing. But we’ve got work to do. You shared the numbers, we’re not in a healthy spot, and so the next 100 days is going to be about resetting the business.”

“So, it’s 2030,” interviewer Emily Chang said. “You’ve had four years to run Xbox. What does success look like? What is true about Xbox that isn’t true today?”

Sharma reiterated: “I’d love to see us be the number one gaming and entertainment company.”

Asha Sharma via Bloomberg: "To start revive Xbox, we shipped more in the last 100 days than in the last year; Game Pass returned to growth. Most importantly, we starting to get back being closer to our players & community. For the next 100 days, we have to reset the business."

@asha_shar I like the transparency and honesty, because the opposite is simply ridiculous https://t.co/V655adY4uX

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Trump’s day so far:

• A federal judge temporarily blocked his plan to create a $1.8 billion slush fund for January 6 rioters

• A federal judge ordered Trump’s name removed from the Kennedy Center and halted plans to close the venue for two years.

• A federal judge reopened Trump’s $10 billion IRS lawsuit and ordered an investigation into “grievous allegations” that a rushed settlement was “premised on deception.”

Multiple musicians have pulled out of Trump’s Freedom 250 concert

And it’s not even 7 p.m. yet.

So much winning.

Hide the ketchup!!!

[XBOX News for Koreans 🇰🇷 - 네이버 XBOX 정보 카페 @KoreaXBOXnews]

Sony is the only company that deliberately avoids using the official name “Xbox Game Studios” in its store, instead labeling everything simply as “Microsoft Corporation.”
It’s a clear sign of how unwilling Sony is to let the Xbox brand appear in front of its customers.
Strangely enough, I’ve never seen a single journalist point this out anywhere in the world.
At the same time, some people often insist that Xbox should include the PlayStation logo in trailers during Xbox game showcases—which feels absurd.
The double standard is baffling, and I honestly don’t understand what criteria they’re using.
