@SirBrayden @CoasterK24 It was really underwhelming, so much so I can’t even remember the plot, Tough to be a Bug was much more fun and enjoyable

@elonmusk Is better than Nolan’s Odyssey, maybe the best alternative against Hollywood and their continual propaganda, is side stepping them altogether and make alternative versions with AI

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@asha_shar @klobrille I always thought it as corporate nonsense and ridiculousness Sony trying to hide in their presentations that a game is available on other platforms, anyone can search and find out right away that is not exclusive

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@tomwarren Will likely cost $1500 to $2000, due to ofc ongoing "current market conditions", that will be the excuse of the year for tech

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@_Tom_Henderson_ all COD campaigns should have a completely offline option, should be optional

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@shellenberger @dsonoiki @spencerpratt Love of country 🇺🇲 and basic common sense politics on borders, crime, and economy shouldn't be a partisan slur. Patriotism belongs to all Americans, not one label. Enough with the purity tests,
"E pluribus unum"

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@shellenberger @dsonoiki @spencerpratt Being proud to be American — flying the flag, cheering for the USMNT at the World Cup, enjoying a patriotic themed Soaring Disney ride for the 250th celeb— isn't 'MAGA.' It's normal, yet some want to cause a controversy/division were there isn't a case for one by imposing labels

@PaulTassi Guess who is going to be paying for the loss revenue of PC port sales ? recurring subscribers at a higher margin, the rush to buy PS5s in April before the price hike was a catalyst, sent a message acrosss that even at higher prices there is a willingness to open wallets

@StephenJnrHowe @XBOX 5. .Not everyone has great internet or wants everything as a revocable license. @XBOX could stand out by supporting both — stronger backward compatibility, better hardware for physical (higher capacity discs where possible), and keeping physical options alive for consumers

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@StephenJnrHowe @XBOX 4. Physical still matters to a lot of us for real ownership, preservation, and choice. A disc works offline forever (as long as the hardware does). You can resell, lend, or keep a collection that isn't tied to an account that might get banned or have server issues decades later.

@xMBGx 2. Plaintiffs argue unjust enrichment/double recovery since Sony can claim refunds from the government while consumers overpaid. Similar suit ongoing vs. Nintendo, don't ever trust gaming corporations blindly

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@xMBGx 1.More fun facts,Sony getting sued for earlier hardware price hike in April, May 2026 class-action lawsuit in California, alleging Sony raised prices on PS5 consoles, accessories, etc, due to tariffs — even after the Supreme Court ruled those tariffs unconstitutional in Feb 2026.

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@xMBGx While Sony cites "market conditions" this is the actual data, May 2026 earnings

• Game & Network Services = record operating income ¥463.3B (+12% YoY)

• +45% growth excluding Bungie impairment

• Network services (PS Plus) specifically helped drive profits

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@tomwarren For the payers, Playstation revenue going up - payer wallets going down - May 2026 Sony earnings:
• Game & Network Services = record operating income ¥463.3B (+12% YoY)
• +45% growth excluding Bungie impairment
• Network services (PS Plus) specifically helped drive profits

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@PlayStation 5/ Gamers aren't stupid. PS3 multiplayer was free. Repeated hardware + subscription hikes while delivering thinner value = more churn, more multiplat, more PC. Treat the installed base like an ATM and watch loyalty evaporate. Deliver better value & stop the excuses. @PlayStation

[Janio Arrowsmith @JanSmith7]

@PlayStation 4/ Reality check from your own May 2026 earnings Sony:

• Game & Network Services = record operating income ¥463.3B (+12% YoY)

• +45% growth excluding Bungie impairment

• Network services (PS Plus) specifically helped drive profits
