Sony should stop making PlayStation consoles while they're still beating Xbox

A reader reacts to rumours that Sony is getting out of the gaming hardware business and suggests that if it's not true it should be their policy anyway. There was a very alarming rumour going around this week, that Sony had said it is going to give up making gaming hardware. 'In the gaming business, we are moving away from a hardware centric business model more to a platform business that expands the community and increases engagement,' is the sentence that was doing the rounds, from a Sony exec. GC and most other sensible websites didn't report it because the translation was apparently inaccurate, and the sentence taken out of context. I'm still not entirely clear what he was trying to say but I think that's kind of on purpose, because he was an exec talking to investors – so he didn't particularly want to be understood, it was all just fluff to make it sound like Sony know what they're doing. If anything, it seemed to be him implying they were going to do more movies and theme park type stuff with their brands, like Nintendo is nowadays. But more likely it didn't really mean anything at all and as rumours continue to say, the PlayStation 6 is on its way just as you'd expect. But I think this is a bad idea. Not just the PlayStation 6 but the whole idea of making consoles. I'll say it right now, to make my bias clear, but I don't really like Xbox or their influence on the games industry. That goes double now that they bought Activision and Bethesda and will probably snap up any other publisher that ever shows sign of weakness, like EA and Ubisoft. It's not because of console war reasons that I don't like them, but because gaming is such a tiny part of the Microsoft whole and despite owning so much of the games industry, they'd shut it down and turn their back on it in an instant if they thought it was too much of a distinction or waste of money. As we have seen with the thousands of job losses lately. Despite owning so much, Xbox Series X has done so badly that many people think Microsoft are going to give up making consoles, even though they say they're not. It's obviously going to be a super low priority for them in the future though, as they turn themselves into a third party publisher. They're going to try and do without their own console, but that does not mean they're no longer a threat to Sony, far from it. Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. Xbox has fallen on its face two generations in a row now and Phil Spencer and the other execs are desperate for a win, to pretend it as all part of a big 4D chess game they were playing. And not, as it very obviously was, their plans failing again and again. Sony Senior Vice President Sadahiko Hayakawa says they are gradually shifting their gaming business from a hardware centric business model to a community and engagement based platform business model #PlayStation'In the gaming business, we are moving away from a hardware centric… — Genki✨ (@Genki_JPN) August 7, 2025 Not only is Microsoft pretending consoles aren't important anymore but they're trying to put an end to exclusives and claim they're anti-consumer. When really these are the two things Sony does well and so they're trying to undermine them. And the weird thing is it's working. Even without knowing exactly what that exec was on about, it's inevitable Sony games will appear day one on PC sooner or later and more are going multiformat. Helldivers 2 is out on Xbox this month, despite being Sony's only live service success. And that's because they make more money selling its microtransactions to all gamers, rather than using it to tempt people into buying a PlayStation 5 console. The logical end result of this is that Sony will also turn third party in the end, which I hate but I just don't see any other outcome. What worries me is that they're going to take so long getting around to doing it that by the time they do it, it will be too late and Microsoft will be in a dominant position – finally becoming the Netflix of gaming that they've always wanted. Not because of Game Pass but because they're such a big publisher, with so many games and companies, and they have their own cloud gaming service. Sony might be winning the console war today – so much so that Xbox isn't really even competing anymore – but it's really only a battle, the war for influence in the games industry goes on and the new battleground is multiformat subscription services, cloud gaming, and live service games. I know those aren't things most hardcore gamers are interested in but that's the new reality we live in and if Sony hold onto old glories, namely focusing on console hardware too much, they'll quickly become irrelevant. More Trending In my opinion they shouldn't make the PlayStation 6 at all. If they're doing a portable that's fine and I do wonder whether they've already decided not to make a home console, even though leaks suggest otherwise. They should stop though. Consoles are not the future of gaming and Sony needs to understand that and make sure they're read to fight on in the new reality we all find ourselves in.

Aldi's sold-out Bluey chairs are back in store & shoppers are rushing to buy them – saying the designs are even better

A FRENZY is sweeping through the aisles of Aldi as the retailer's highly-anticipated Bluey chairs make a triumphant return. And shoppers are racing to get their hands on them. 2 But this time, it's the new "Grannies" designs that are sparking the most excitement, with parents declaring they're even cuter than the originals. The buzz began in the popular Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, where one mum shared a photo of the new chairs-one in orange and one in purple-depicting Bluey and Bingo. The post quickly gained popularity, racking up over 82 likes and 35 comments within 24 hours. The post read: 'I never managed to get hold of them when they were selling them near Christmas! "Kinda glad I missed out on the Aldi Bluey chairs the first time round now… The latest Grannies ones are so cute!" The chairs, priced at £24.99 from Aldi, have once again become an instant sell-out. And that's no surprise as the the hit children's show certainly has gained popularity over the years. With their soft, plush design, these chairs are the perfect cosy spot for little ones to curl up in their pyjamas and enjoy watching an episode of Bluey. Many other fans rushed to the comments section to share their delight, while many tagged their friends with excitement. One wrote: 'Never mind the kids ... I want them,' while another simply added: 'Love this one.' Aldi rolls out 'INSANE' shelf change to all 2,550 locations - and it means 33% more savings for shoppers New stores opening Aldi is embarking on a significant expansion across the UK, with 11 new stores officially confirmed to open by the end of the year. The German supermarket is set to welcome customers in Deeside, Market Harborough, and London, among other locations, as part of a major £650 million investment plan. 2 This substantial funding will not only be used for the new sites but also for refreshing 35 existing stores before the year's end. The list of confirmed openings includes: Airfields, Welsh Road, Deeside Rockingham Road, Market Harborough, Leicestershire Fulham Broadway, London Pacific Drive, Eastbourne, East Sussex Mafon Road, Nelson, Treharris Ashford, Waterbrook, Kent Commercial Street, Shoreditch, London Philadelphia Lane, Houghton le Spring, Tyne and Wear Mill Road, Meadowfield, Durham Pendle Drive, Litherland, Liverpool Ringwood Road, Brimington, Chesterfield In a strong push to grow its presence in the capital, Aldi is dedicating £55 million to its London stores. The company has an ambitious long-term goal of adding 100 more branches in London, a move that would bring 3,500 new jobs to the city. Four new London-area locations already announced are Wimbledon, Fulham Broadway, Orpington, and Caterham (Surrey). Overall, Aldi is on a mission to increase its nationwide store count from 1,050 to 1,500. This latest wave of 11 new stores is just the beginning, with plans to announce locations for another 12 openings later in the year.

I tested supermarket pre-mixed martinis… flavour punch from tasty £6 winner nails classic cocktail & is great value too

SHAKEN or stirred? The martini is having another moment with demand for James Bond's favourite cocktail on the rise. Sales of pre-mixed canned martinis have risen by 200 per cent at posh department store ­Selfridges over the past year, while bars in the capital have also seen an uptick in orders. If you want to enjoy the glam drink without splashing out or going out, the supermarkets have you covered. Here, drinks expert Helena Nicklin, above, rates them out of five. The Infusionist Passion Fruit Martini 70cl, £7.49, Aldi, 10% ABV ALDI'S famous Infusionist range covers a lot of bases in the pre-mixed cocktail department and this is a terrific, well-priced, ready-to-sip tipple. The vibrant, exotic and super-sweet cocktail formerly known as the Porn Star Martini — served with a shot of prosecco on the side in cocktail bars — will never be everyone's cup of seriously sugary tea, but the key to a good one is balance. With its punchy passion fruit, refreshingly balanced citrus and impressively boozy ABV, the Infusionist offering feels and drinks like the real deal. If it all gets a bit much, a small serving of Prosecco on the side, just as a mixologist would do on a night out, will dilute the tang nicely. 4/5 Passion Fruit Martini 75cl, £6, Morrisons, 8% ABV BRAND new to the Morrisons range, with mega shelf appeal thanks to its large, eye-catching purple packaging that has real party vibes, is this tasty tipple. And the great news is that as well as being cork-poppingly glam, it also really packs a real flavour punch. At 8 per cent ABV, the buzz is good and the passion fruit and lime is searingly tart and tangy, as it would be in a bar. The gold foil and cork make this feel like a real 'occasion drink' and it offers super value for the amount you get so would be great for a party or ­having friends over. It nails the classic cocktail stylistically, though it will always be too sweet for some. A fun fizz alternative that'll save you a fortune, too. 5/5 Passion Fruit Martini & Triple Distilled Vodka 25cl, £1.40, Sainsbury's, 5% ABV EXPECT a slight taste of real fruit with this which, considering the cost-saving price and when compared to the other 5 per cent cans I tried, is a considerable bonus. However, to sip, it tastes very sweet and feels a tad diluted in the glass. It's good value for money though, so if you had it well chilled, sitting on the beach, in the park or at a picnic, it is refreshing enough and highly glugg- able. A decent drop for not a lot of cash. A good one to stock up your fridge with for those evenings when you just fancy a little something with a bit of a different flavour. 3/5 Pink Passion Star Martini Cocktail 25cl, £2.50, M&S, 8% ABV THERE'S a whole lot of flavour — and booze — going on with this M&S classic canned cocktail. A huge whack of vanilla hits you up front and this is followed by a very pleasant raspberry ­flavour. The booze really tickles the back of your throat, which explains the higher price tag. With an 8 per cent ABV, this offering is on the higher side. Lots to like in theory and the packaging is good fun, too. Despite all that, it just doesn't feel quite right. It seems a bit out of balance and crazy when you start drinking. Sadly, overall this one was too much for me. 2/5 All Shook Up Passion Fruit Martini 25cl, £1.50, Tesco, 4% ABV TESCO'S tinned tipples had a makeover not so long ago and sadly, that seemed to also mean a chance to lower the ABV. While this is understandable given rising taxes and a need to keep costs down, this 4 percenter ABV-wise does not fare well. It's thin, sugary sweet and cordial-like — with not much actual flavour or punch going on at all. A real pity as the price is good, it contains real fruit juice and the packaging — in the style of a more famous brand — is grown-up and looks decent. But at the end of the day, this passion fruit martini still needs a bit of a shake up on the taste. 1/5 Passion Fruit Martini Classic 25cl, £1.59, Co-op, 5% ABV CO-OP'S prettily patterned tinned tipple sits right in between the more authentic, bottled style and the more squash-like, cheaper cans from other retailers. It looks very jolly on the shelf although perhaps gives off stronger beach bar than cocktail bar vibes, but it's all about the taste ultimately. To sip, there's less tartness here, which the purists won't like but others will, and it feels a bit more like a buzzy, tropical juice than a real ­cocktail. Still, it gives good bang for buck and, served chilled, it's a decent drop. One for those who prefer their cocktails on the sweeter side and for an excellent price too. 3/5 Paradise Bay Passion Fruit Martini 70cl, £3, Iceland, 3.4% ABV IF it's a brain-melting, super sugary, acidic tang you want from your booze buzz, this is it. This nicely packaged bottle is on the big side so it will do for topping up your cocktail glass more than once, and it really packs a flavour punch. That said, much of the taste is generic sweetness rather than anything like the proper flavour you'd get from slicing into and enjoying an actual ­passion fruit. A proper tooth-tingler that your dentist won't like, and as a result of all that ­saccharine — and the lower ABV — you can barely taste the booze. If you want a mixologist-style cocktail at home then there are far better options to be had. 2/5 Extra Special Passion Fruit Martini 70cl, £7.97, ASDA, 10% ABV WHILE this unsophisticated ­bottle may not appeal so much on the outside and could maybe do with a complete redesign, what's inside is excellent. Tropical and exotic, it hits all the right, sweet notes of the cocktail. It has a punchy ABV and feels warming and buzzy, rather than hot and chemically like some of the others. Just make sure you give it a really good shake before serving — it gives good texture when you do. It's a case of chill, shake, serve. Spoiler: if you're after something that tastes most like the real deal when ­buying a ready-to-drink option then opting for glugs in bottles rather than cans is the right way forward.
