June Update: 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 .  June 2026 Update : The latest snippet of gossip for Sony's next-gen systems is a modular/external drive that will connect to both devices.

Yay! Found a new Xperia Play Game: Backbreaker 2: Vengeance

Having pleaded for some news on new Xperia Play games, we've found one. Meet Backbreaker 2 from Natural Motion (developers of the Euphoria engine), an American football game that isn't hamstrung by the license, making it a far more tasty affair. Its also a perfectly timed game for the American launch, although it might not tear players away from Madden 11, its at least something a little different for everyone else.


With an emphasis on crunching tackles and monster blocks, its a lively looking affair. The game is currently an Xperia Play exclusive and is based on an iPhone original title. Any Xperia Play owners can pick it up here, its a 28Mb download and costs $2.99 (around £1.84).

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
