“Germany and France today are too weak to rule Europe,” Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski [@radeksikorski] said in an interview for the German daily Spiegel. Sikorski added that “Europe must breathe with both lungs: the eastern and the western one,” and Poland – as the world’s 20th largest economy – aims to be the representative for the interests of Central and Eastern European countries, which joined the EU in 2004 or later.



With Sony pulling back on exclusives for PC it's good to understand why Shawn Layden pushed for their games to be on put on PC in the first place. My theory on why they are doing this though is because 1. There games on PC weren't really moving the needle and selling that much, nor were they creating FOMO for people to buy a PlayStation to play the sequels. 2. They don't want Xbox's new hardware to be able to play their games through the loophole of Steam. 3. Nintendo is closing the gap with Switch 2 and seems to have somewhat alleviated their biggest weakness.....third party support, which makes them having exclusives even more important. 4. Releasing elsewhere disincentivizes people from buying a PlayStation so that's less sales within their ecosystem
