PlayStation 6 and PlayStation Portable future visions

 The recent PlayStation video about the "simulated" technology in development, discussed between AMD and Sony engineers that will power the PlayStation 6 was interesting from a geek point of view. But from a gameplay perspective, there is - IMO - no need for a PlayStation 6 for another few years. Especially with the limp Xbox is-it-isn't-it launch .  April 2026 Update:  Compatibility with PS5 and PS4 games seems to be locked-in, as anything the PS6 full fat hardware the portable versions should be able to do as well, with near-invisible trade-offs at the silicon level.  Prices are firming up too with estimates around the PlayStation 6 handheld at between $500 to $700 and a PlayStation 6 at $700 to $1,000, depending on the deepening silicon crisis and Sony's budgeting wizards.  Only a few developers around the world could afford to take advantage of it for AAA+ budget games.

Weekend Thought: Who Keeps Searching for iPad vs. NGP?

Due to some excellent weather in the UK, its been an out-and-about last few days, but when I have come back indoors, people are still searching for "iPad vs NGP." Can I ask why? The iPad (even in its second iteration) is a general purpose device, it has touchscreen and tilt controls.

The NGP is a gaming thoroughbred, with tilt, touch (front and rear), analog and digital controls. You can play any game under the sun on it. The only thing I'm slightly envious about the iPad 2 is its HDMI-out connector, which I really hope Sony will pack in there somehow.

If you want to play games as they are meant to be played, you get an NGP, if you want to do some gaming as well as the whole app thing you get an iPad, its quite simple and doesn't require seaching about in Google for an answer.
