It took me almost 50 hours over nearly 2 months to work my way through Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined on PS5. I never played the original releases and this is easily in my top 5 JRPGs of all time now. Great job SquareEnix. Give it a shot.

Very excited for this. blog.playstation.com/2026/03/16/u... Note that Cyberpunk PS5 Pro update coming…

Really enjoyed Minishoot Adventures. It’s basically an old school top-down Zelda meets bullet hell twin stick shooter. Me vs. mid-game boss. store.playstation.com/en-us/concep...

Got a 3D Printer (Bambu Labs P1S) just before Christmas and I’ve been obsessed… Printer has run 24 hours a day since. I’m learning tons, I’m organizing all my stuff and having a good time.

From Bad Robot and the maker of Left 4 Dead comes 4:LOOP, a four-player co-op shooter set in an original sci-fi universe. #TheGameAwards

I was at the Game Awards last night and I think @geoffkeighley.bsky.social really nailed the balance between honoring the awards and being the marketing vehicle that the TGAs typically is, better than any other year I can remember. Some great announcements. Even a one or two that I wasn’t aware of.
