People say I'm brutally honest. Like it, or leave it.

@NintendoUK Don’t buy from a company that breaches consumer laws and doesn’t offer support. @NintendoUK support is unavailable over the phone, via chat and they don’t reply to emails either. Shame on you

@easyJet is there any particular reason why your flights always come with a minimum 2-hour delay? Is it a perk of travelling with you? Do you have any on-time flight?

@angelodotsui Me. I completed the main story then give up. I loved the game and I’m glad I’ve played it, but building is not my thing

This generation of PlayStation has been one of the worst in gaming history, and I'll tell you exactly why. Sony has released almost nothing that actually justifies upgrading to a new console — Spider-Man 2 being the one exception. Most people are still playing online games that run perfectly fine on last-gen hardware. If it weren't for that, nobody would have a reason to buy the PS5 at all. Then there's PS Plus — overpriced, underwhelming, and shoved down your throat just to play online. You can't even touch multiplayer without paying them first. A friend of mine couldn't play Split Fiction with me because he didn't have a PS Plus subscription, even though I already owned the game. Think about that. Who actually owns the console here — you or Sony? And the hardware situation is embarrassing. Someone jailbroke a PS5, threw Linux on it, and got performance nearly identical to the PS5 Pro. That tells you everything. The gap between the PS5 and the PS5 Pro is mostly software and AI upscaling tricks — not real hardware. Sony is artificially holding back performance and charging you $1,000 for a console that'll be obsolete in a year or two. And the controller? The DualSense is one of the most expensive controllers on the market and still ships with bad joystick components that wear out constantly. I personally know someone who's bought four of them. This is exactly why switching to PC isn't a luxury — it's a necessity. On PC, you own your games. You play on your terms. No subscriptions, no paywalls, no artificial locks. You want ray tracing? Turn it on. You want higher frames over better visuals? Your call. You want to play a game from 2003 next to a game from 2025? Go ahead. No compatibility issues. No company deciding what you're allowed to run or when. On PC, you don't need an Xbox AND a PlayStation. You don't split your money across multiple subscriptions that give you nothing back. You know exactly where every dollar goes. And speaking of where your money goes — when you buy PlayStation, you're funding a company that has spent this entire generation actively disrespecting its audience. Muscular female leads shoehorned into male-built worlds. Weak, hollow male characters. Beloved IPs gutted to push an agenda. Ghost of Tsushima. The Last of Us Part II — a game that could've been a masterpiece, thrown away to serve an ideology. Sony took "For the Players" as a slogan and spent years doing the exact opposite. I'm done with it. Sony doesn't deserve your money, your time, or your loyalty. The door to PC is open — walk through it.

If you don’t already own a PS5 or PS5 Pro then buy one before April 2nd before the prices increase. We’ve had 5.5yrs to buy a PS5 and 2yrs to get a Pro so stop complaining. The two best consoles on the market for years were pretty good prices especially on holiday sales. Felt like stealing. Yet despite the price increase coming it’s still the best gaming hardware on the market for the price We all seen this coming regarding the economy and the $1000 Next Gen hardware is very much a reality. Don’t blame PlayStation for being greedy. They’ve been more than generous regarding console prices and they are a business Same people who complain about this will go out and buy a new $1000+ phone every year, $1000 handheld, or $500+ RAM etc. Build a PC crowd is ignorant as ever.. like usual These prices will still move units. It always fake outrage

A PS5 Pro will cost $900 starting April 2

With the revelation that even Farage now admits Brexit has been a failure, with senior Labour and Conservative politicians calling openly for EU rejoin and the EU saying there is a clear path and process to welcome the UK back. What is Britain waiting for?

@OctopusEnergy @itvpeston You need to lobby against the EVs tax set by @RachelReevesMP then! Get her out and convince the Government to invest more in unified EVs charging networks that don’t fight against each other. Charging a car while travelling is an absolute nightmare.

The future is electric. We need to burn less stuff. Last night on @itvpeston, Greg broke down why the countries doubling down on electrification aren't just cleaner - they're building the economies that will leave fossil fuel nations behind. "The economies going back to fossil fuels are gonna end up looking like middle income countries." @g__j We're not waiting to find out which side of history we land on.
Peston@itvpeston

“The reality is the future is electric” Octopus Energy CEO @g__j says the UK is ‘going to look like a backward country’ if we go ‘back to burning’ rather than taking on cleaner technologies #Peston

Another misery caused by Brexit voters Geneva airport: EU citizens queue for passport control empty. Brits queue for over an hour Brexit voters should have to pay a £5,000 tax surcharge for the misery they have inflicted on the rest of us: Higher prices, job & trade losses

@tomwarren The only thing the UK government is investing is taxing EV to make them as expensive as petrol. @RachelReevesMP is coming after EVs

as gas and oil prices surge, I managed to charge up two EVs yesterday for far less than 1 litre of petrol (gasoline) 🙃 I hope the UK government follows Portugal and Spain and invests heavily in renewable energy

@RobertJenrick She must cap profits from essential goods such as food, energy, and petrol. These sectors must have a fixed profit of less than 10% which extortionate fines for those raising prices to increase profits

Rachel Reeves is raking in millions in tax whilst motorists suffer. Why won’t she lighten the load? Scrap her increase in fuel duty. Halve VAT at the pumps - now.

So UK shop Lush has put this sign up in all of its shops across the UK. Imagine the family’s of those raped and murdered by asylum seekers having to see this. Why are high street shops allowed to put political messages like this up ? @itvnews @BBCNews @SkyNews

@realisticynic11 @dave24144975 @RoyalMail The answer from DO manager was: “What do you want? Haven’t you heard this is all across the news?” There’s no hope for @RoyalMail since it’s not a single staff member…it’s the whole company reasoning like this.

@TheseusBi @dave24144975 @RoyalMail Disgraceful ! No excuse whatsoever ! You have to question the calibre of the staff who are actually doing the hiring ? Plus sadly some staff in all walks of life have no interest or pride in their work of course this doesn't apply to everyone but we always remember the bad !

@realisticynic11 @dave24144975 @RoyalMail I was waiting for an urgent parcel. They didn’t show up but marked it as missed delivery. I went to the delivery office just to be told no parcels were delivered since the agency driver returned the van without making a single delivery. That’s the standard

@2147mill The authentic coffee costs €0.9 in Italy (up from €0.50). A freshly homemade croissant costs €1. 1KG of freshly homemade biscuits cost €14. With €10 you buy coffees and croissants for 5 people. And yes, they pay higher taxes and higher energy bills.

Paid £8.40 for two coffees in Richmond this morning. Money doesn’t go very far in the Uk. Spain that would be €4.50 for two and be considerably better coffee

@BoTalksGames Game key cards are not physical. It’s like purchasing a box with a download code inside (like the infamous key-on-a-card for Switch). Whether it’s a GKC, a download code or an eShop purchase, it remains a digital one. Physical copies are fully contained on a physical device.

@realisticynic11 @dave24144975 @RoyalMail A new postal service? Either a public or a private one…the only thing that actually matters is that works! Delays, incidents, etc. are common, but the current RoyalMail service standards are absolutely unacceptable, so anything really would be better…

@mweinbach Except you usually get charging cables with all EVs and you can plug them to any of your outlets, including sharing accommodations and terraced houses. You don’t need a charger. Public charging costs max £0.75 which is cheaper than £1.54 for fuel.
