Saros delivers Returnal 2 in all but name

Housemarque's Returnal remains one of the best PS5 games. Built to kill, raised to die, and fine-tuned to annoy the shit out me while dragging me back in for yet another go at  2AM.  Not-a-sequel Saros ropes in my one of my favourite actors Rahul Kohli into the mix with proper shields, greater weapons freedom, Indian-styled visuals, and borrowing  Xenon 2: Megablast's palette and violence.  Saros is set on Carcosa, a shape-shifting, hostile alien planet.

The PS Vita's PSOne emulator opens a bleary eye, goes back to sleep

While not up and running yet, it looks like Sony is quietly testing the often-demanded service. US users can now actually download one PS One title to their Vitas, getting past that annoying "Cannot download using a PS Vita system" message.

A tiny bit more on VG24/7.

Is it too much of a leap to think that today's PSN downtime (starting to wonder if it is ever really up?) is a pre-cursor to activating the feature?

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
