Financial analyst Michael Pachter stated that Sony mishandles its gaming division and advised investors against purchasing the company's stock during a Yahoo Finance segment about Electronic Arts' $55 billion private sale. Pachter argued that gaming will transition to cloud-based television platforms similar to streaming services, with artificial intelligence providers and free-to-play developers capturing market share. The analyst recommended investing in PlayTika, a mobile gaming publisher where he holds 500,000 shares that currently trade at a 4.5 multiple valuation.
Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Hideaki Nishino recently described the PlayStation 5 as the company's most profitable generation, generating $136 billion in revenue...
AMD plans to enhance graphics card performance through Dense Geometry Format technology that compresses animation data and improves ray tracing efficiency. The company outlined this approach in a technical blog post on GPUOpen, explaining how DGF divides large triangle meshes into smaller blocks that require less memory bandwidth during processing.
Current AMD graphics cards handle DGF through compute shader units, but future UDNA architecture could shift this work to dedicated hardware accelerators. The compressed format allows graphics processors to build ray tracing acceleration structures directly from DGF blocks, reducing the computational overhead of rebuilding bounding volume hierarchies. This method enables more geometry data...
Former Norton legislator Temba Mliswa has urged Vice President Constantino Chiwenga to intervene against what he calls misconduct by Chinese investors in Zimbabwe. Mliswa raised concerns about Shuntai Investments Private Limited, which continues building a cement plant near Bryden Country School in Chegutu despite a High Court order stopping construction. The politician suggested on Sunday that political protection or bribery might explain why the company ignores judicial orders.
Mliswa also referenced problems in Hurungwe's Rengwe Conservancy, where residents face displacement to accommodate Chinese operators despite court protection. He posted on X that corruption fighting should begin immediately with these cases. The former...

Despite these updates, Ghost of Yōtei performed well in pre-release testing. The game's primary weakness remains its strong resemblance to its predecessor, but reviewers noted this similarity does not diminish the overall quality.
