A huge security flaw has been found in PlayStation Network. This potential flaw could lead to many accounts online being permanently banned by gamers that are not associated with the accounts being banned. In a nutshell your friends can get your account banned if they really wanted to. This writer tells of his own experience with their online chat support and what happened during this encounter.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

Wow, what a negative drivel!
Before you say anything, some highlights:
"Sony is known for having an online network that us the equivalent of a wet dog fart"
"Sony doesn’t delete their inactive accounts even if requested by the account owner because it makes their subscriptions numbers look fantastic"
I've never seen Sony brag about their subscription numbers, besides, regular accounts do not subscribe I imagine.
Basically this dude is complaining that Sony did exactly as he asked them to, he asks to ban an account he owns, needs to give email address, date of birth, etc. What else do you want them to ask for? A blood sample? Yes, it's a tad weird that if you know the details of someone's account that you can ask them to do this for you, still, it sounds like a very negative article to be just negative...
