Sony was the company’s biggest customer in 2022. The company sold a huge 16% of its products to Sony, which is best known in the video game business for its graphics cards.The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S both feature AMD hardware, as do Microsoft’s current-generation consoles.

According to an SEC filing (credit to Tom’s Hardware), AMD sold Sony semiconductors for PS5 consoles in 2022 for a total of about $3.776 billion. Starting in January, Sony said that it had sold more than 30 million PS5 systems and that the platform’s supply problem, which had been a problem since it came out, seemed to have been fixed thanks to an active marketing campaign.

It will be fascinating to observe how these figures change if the PS5 is more widely accessible at this time next year. How many PS5s do you think Sony will sell this year, knowing what you now know?

The devilish launch of Diablo 4 is days away (less for Ultimate Edition buyers). Blizzard has promised the ultimate reward for the first 1000 players to accomplish level 100 on Hardcore Mode: a statue of in-game antagonist Lillith.

Diablo 4’s Hardcore Mode is a character-creation-only difficulty adjuster. It automatically deletes characters when they die, making things infinitely harder regardless of World Tier. But 100? That’s several playthroughs on increasingly difficult World Tiers with new adversaries in harsher setups and about 150 hours of flawlessly rapid gameplay.

Honoring the dying.

Being remembered with those brave souls lost on the journey is the ultimate gamer boast. Do you dare?

Bloober Team’s survival horror game Layers of Fear is terrifying. The Trophy List on Exophase just appeared, and players will have to go crazy to obtain Platinum.

With a Silver Trophy like “a new way” requiring players to “live through the third conversation” (and a few of Bronzes for surviving the previous two) and another called “face your fears” appearing when you “see your enemy and fail”, we might chase this one with the lights on.

Do you like Layers of Fear’s whole trophy list? Do you want the Plat?

It’s possible certain Showcase games were withheld. Summer Game Fest may bring something? Watched the big spectacle live?
