    Remember the car I sold to Carvana for more than I paid brand-new?

    I was thinking about Carvana today for no particular reason and realized I’m an idiot: I could have looked up my car’s history using its VIN!

    Sure enough, vehicle report websites show it was resold in Arizona for an asking price of $19,990. That’s $915 less than Carvana paid me. It’s possible the company will make its money back through financing.

    The Hogwarts Legacy boycott didn’t work.

    Two weeks after launch, Warner Bros. Games says it’s sold over 12 million copies, done $850 million in global sales, broke 1.28 million peak concurrent viewers on Twitch, and people have played it for 280 million hours so far.

    It “surpasses all of the company’s previous game launches”... which means this controversial game is probably getting a sequel.

    Five days left to design an official Lego set.

    I told you about the Bricklink Designer Program in January, but this weekend is your last. February 28th is the deadline to submit your design to be judged by peers and by Lego. You can make tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars if your design is one of the five winners.

    The PlayStation VR2 is here.

    Interestingly, you can still only buy it direct from Sony as of today. Here’s our review, our Vergecast segment, and our thoughts on Horizon Call of the Mountain and Gran Turismo 7.

    Some other easy day-one recommendations: What The Bat, Thumper, The Last Clockwinder... and for relaxing times, make it Tetris Effect.

    Microsoft broke the fun Bing game.

    While Microsoft has only publicly admitted to playing with how many turns you get and tweaking the AI’s “tone”, the reality is that Bing just doesn’t answer fun questions like those anymore. It’ll end the conversation as soon as you ask one. Lame!
