THE Installbase

@mkbhd.com please inform your team to never answer phishing questions like birthdates, where you grew up, pet names, etc.
Unless it is mentioned previous to live stream that you will be lying about all that info to each other.

Today I was invited to the first ever Game Business Live event to better understand the future of this industry as we navigate economic uncertainty, transmedia, mobile game expansion and live-streaming and influencer landscapes.

Happy I got to chat with @matpiscatella.bsky.social too!

Had a chance to visit Sony Pictures and celebrate #lastofusseason2 and took pics of a signed “gee-tar” by Neil Druckmann (Dr. Uckmann)

May the Fourth be with you.
Watch #AndorSeason2!

Everyone! For your own sake, de-couple your identity with what you do for a living. Subconsciously, many of us associate our value to society and family based on our jobs, titles, education, pay, etc.

That is going to change in 5-10 years
Please do this for your mental health.

Started doing reviews for games and still working out the kinks. I have ambitions to do even more content - bringing 20+ years of industry knowledge to the table. Would love to hear your suggestions, feedback and requests.

I am always trying to innovate.

I’m gonna have some free time on my hands- maybe I start something creative? Start a patreon? All of the above?

got any suggestions??

Friday night musings:
Companies that have teams with high turnover should really spend time to figure out why. It’ll save you time/money/heartache.

In these tumultuous times- know you have true pals around.
Happy Pal-entines day!

Also, congrats to Ted Price, MLBtheShow, Helldivers and Astrobot at #DICEawards2025

Now I’m off to play the new levels in Astrobot!

Just going to say this now… we in Los Angeles should start planting sunflowers en masse around the affected fire areas once cleared of fires.
They will absorb toxins and help absorb rain and help prevent mud slides (maybe?)
Just make sure to pull them up before next fire season…

Merry Xmas - another thoughtful holiday card from @santamonicastudio.bsky.social

Happy Holidays!

If you’ve opened the package and want to troll a bit… hook up the system and hide it if you can. Then fill the box with heavy items that “feel” like the console.

On opening day you can ride the excitement, disappointment, excitement wave when they see it’s already set up to the TV.

Lucky number 1234!

I think Role Playing games alone
#FinalfantasyVIIRebirth #LikeADragonInfiniteWealth #MetaphorRefantazio &
#EldenRing DLC account for over half those hours!

#PlayStationWrapUp

Happy Birthday @imrankhan.bsky.social

Omg! What a show! Congrats to all the winners but especially proud of #AstroBot !!! Also, this shirt is good luck for pics with execs. Got to say goodbye and thank you to Yoshida-san!

Thanks for the great show @geoffkeighley.bsky.social & congrats on 10 years!

At the game awards with a suit jacket and my PlayStation symbols shirt.

Embroidered suit jacket says Game On

Last years photo with Jim Ryan

Last Kazunori Yamauchi-san. Creator of Gran Turismo.

Not missing #thegameawards this time! Decided to wear the same shirt I wore when I missed out for the Jim Ryan goodbye party last time.. but a bit nicer..

Grateful to be included in some festivities this week.

Which one are you this holiday season?

Woo Hoo! Or Bah Humbug!

YouTube video by PlayStation 30th Anniversary | Thank You

It's about you.

Thank you for 30 years of play 💙

3 types of bread (stuffing included) is overkill. So pick one you least like.

I personally like garlic mashed potatoes over potato salad.

Also, more importantly, where are the non-starchy veg?! Green bean casserole, a salad, a soup.. SOMETHING!

Cut up that ham and make split pea soup.

Wondering what is the best way to see trending topics - guess I got so used to Twitter.

I feel like I leaned on that feature to know the general interest level of certain topics.

Now that I don’t have it or don’t know how to get to it, the feeds feel more like noise to me.

Anyone else like me??

Some fun #playstation studios stuff. I got to visit a few offices for Halloween recently. Loved how even Spidey dressed up for the occasion and Astro Kratos too.

I think to myself, what would you do if you see, what seems like, clear signs of someone about to do self-harm…

Keep in mind that you could just be reading into it.
Maybe it’s what they want to do.

Just FYI in the US.
If you feel like:
-You were sold a false bill of goods based on what you are seeing and change your mind.
-If your vote was not counted for some reason.
-You didn’t vote but would’ve.

I’d protest now because protestors in the future might have the military sent to stop you.

Posting for the first time.. guessing many others are flocking over these days…
