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.

Soul Sacrifice to rise up on the Vita

At the moment, can't find any scans. You'd think with all their technology, one keen early reader could put up some photos or scans. Given it has Soul in the title, folks are jumping to conclusions about a Demon Souls or Dark Souls spin-off, but its more likely to be a Sony effort at a monster hunter game, based on the description.
