Sony Xperia phones used to be my favorite--the last great one that I used was the Xperia Z2, which remained my daily driver for over two years. The company is still making phones under the same brand name, and these phones are seriously overpowered in every way. However, it now appears that the company might be changing the name to something else, and this could hint at a revival. There is a possibility that we might get a rebranded Sony Xperia phone, and I am all for it You see, Sony Xperia phones are great. However, Sony does not pay […]

Back in October Destiny developer Bungie shocked many industry watchers when they enacted a deep round of layoffs, although the move became more understandable when it was revealed Destiny 2 missed its 2022 revenue targets by a whopping 45 percent. Clearly, things are not going that well over at Bungie, but a new report from IGN’s Rebekah Valentine paints an even more dire picture. According to Valentine’s sources, a lot of what’s going on at Bungie hinges on a potential full takeover of the company by Sony. While Bungie has had a variety of different corporate overlords, they’ve always maintained […]
