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. Allowing installation on the portable of physical games, and reducing the cost of the PS6 by making the Blu-ray an accessory (like the PS5 Slim).  I prefer the idea of a dedicated dock on the PS6 that connects the next Portable to your entire PSN library, and they'd better make it work as an extra controller, but I'm sure there are practical benefits to the extra drive.   That should also boost sales of PS4 and PS5 physical games, especially on the second-hand market, as folk...

Ragnarok Odyssey Ace? It could be better though

Packed with all the original game's DLC it will also add new content, missions and tweaks, Gung Ho are positioning it as a gateway to a proper sequel, so it'll probably be mid-priced for all these new Vita owners.

UPDATE: Gung-Ho has confirmed the game will get a western release, hopefully with less of delay over the Japanese version (given most of the work is already done).

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
