I’m not bragging about how brave I am but I ate a Caesar salad today.

Rolled credits on the Adventures of Elliot. Really fun sort of top down Zelda. Lots of exploration. Neat combat mechanics. Give it a shot.

Last week at PlayStation Connect in Huntington Beach, I once again had the pleasure of moderating our Industry Leaders panel which had Hakan Abrak, Amanda Kruse, Abhi Ramprasad and Nate Nanzer all sharing their varied views on the future of our industry. Many thanks to all who participated.

Rolled credits on 007 First Light. Really enjoyed the linearity and story. Lots of gameplay variety over the run of the game. Try it.

Today’s task: smoking a Wagyu tri-tip and two beef plate ribs. These are about 80% to temperature.

Just catching up. Had a great week in Huntington Beach last week with like 600+ of our partners at PlayStation Partner Connect. Keynotes and 100+ hours of breakouts with our subject matter experts. And I moderated our Industry Leaders panel again. I’ll mention that more when I get the photos. :)

Had another great game at the UEFA Champions League final last night.

A great way to arrive in Florence.

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...

I love Chinese & Taiwanese Wuxia RPGs, not only for the cool martial arts setting but also for playing differently from Western & Japanese RPGs. I often get asked for recommendations. I had a big thread on Twitter, so here's a new one! Here's my favorites available in English (officially or not) 🧵

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.

Here are the best animated shows and movies of the year.
