July 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 .  July 2026 Update : Sony managed a cannon-fire sized self-inflicted injury by announcing the end of physical releases across the end of the PS5 era and the launch of the PS6. Due to lack of sales (only 7 titles have passed the 100,000 mark in the last year) and economics, it still doesn't matter to PlayStation owners, collectors are stores, who can now only sell digital codes in a box.  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.

Treasures of Montezuma Blitz gets an update, now friendlier

I wish the Vita would drop users a message when a game is ready to be updated, like iOS does. I only blundered into the Montezuma update on a bored give-it-another-go moment. The update takes the game to v1.50 and makes a lot of things that made people cross more tolerable.


For a start, there's hints on the loading screen, making it easier to understand how to play the game better. The totems and bonuses and now front-and-centre rather than tucked away in the side and the UI has been tweaked to be more friendly.


When playing, you're less likely to run down the five-go limit and the daily scratch card seems a bit more generous (or I'm just being lucky) and appears each time you load (so far). In-game hints appear more frequently, so there's less brain-freeze time and levelling up happens faster. Plus a bunch of extra whizzes and sparkle have been added to liven things up.

The game is still free to play, so give it a whirl in its new, improved guise, especially if you weren't too happy with it first time around. Things that still need to be fixed include the multiple pop-up PSN loading screens, and it crashed on me (just the once), but still worth trying out.
