No really, it conveys that there's a lot other fish in the sea besides Microsoft, some are as bigger or maybe even bigger - depends on which metric you use.

The point in the picture is to show that Microsoft is not close to becoming a monopoly in the gaming sector and that image easily communicates that imo
Again, it’s about the money not the number of ‘fish’. There are a slew of nothings on that list giving the same weight as an activision. It’s useless for a monopoly discussion.
 
Back on the PS5 topic, I'm finding the controller's battery to be rather short but I still think its better then xbox controller.

I'm finding that I'm playing on the PS5 a lot more then I ever did for the Xbox.

Good thing I always play wired so I never have to worry about battery life
 
I wonder if the battery is smaller then what the Xbox uses with replaceable batteries because the xbox's controller lasted longer.
Dual Sense controller is 50mAh bigger than Dual Shock. Both are smaller than the capacity of an AA battery.

I figured it was smaller then the AA battery and that explains the shorter battery life.

Maybe its my specific controller but I see the little battery icon going down faster then my Dual Shock. I don't let it go flat, but I see it losing 25% after playing it for a few hours. Not a huge deal, just something I notice.

That accessory where you just drop your controller in when your done is great. I don't even notice batter life because of it.

im so glad that when i bought my ps5 during the time where it was hard to find, the only thing i could find was a bundle including 2 controllers. as i generally dont expect to be playing with others, id never have bought a 2nd controller, but i didnt have a choice. so at any time i have one controller plugged in charging.

There’s a lot going on inside the ps5 controller. You can hear the thing click in and out as resistors are engaged. It’s a next level experience packed into a previous level battery expectation.
 
The FF16 demo came out yesterday. I already had a preorder down but I indulged myself.

I played 7-10 and it's great to come back to the series.
I was gifted a free copy and played the first hour of the game. I am impressed so far. Looking forward to putting in time towards the game.

I finished the game over the weekend. There's a ton of criticism of the game and I understand the complaints. This game is filled with some average fluff side quests, mediocre RPG aspects and then there's its exceptional music, voice acting, graphics and fantastic boss battles. All in all, I loved it.

Slowly working my way through the game, but so far, I am enjoying it a lot.

FF16: I am playing on story mode and I just got to the part where we meet up with Cid. Lot of fun so far. I am -extremely- happy that I don't hvae to spend endless hours grinding or wandering around a map with random enemy encounters. 10/10 for that alone.
 
Do I need to play previous games before this one? Never played a FF game before......lol
