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 .  April 2026 Update:  Compatibility with PS5 and PS4 games seems to be locked-in, as anything the PS6 full fat hardware the portable versions should be able to do as well, with near-invisible trade-offs at the silicon level.  Prices are firming up too with estimates around the PlayStation 6 handheld at between $500 to $700 and a PlayStation 6 at $700 to $1,000, depending on the deepening silicon crisis and Sony's budgeting wizards.  Only a few developers around the world could afford to take advantage of it for AAA+ budget games.

The best PSN EU Vita update ever? Get ready for Toukiden, Danganronpa, txK and more

Rarely has so much quality been packed into such a week's release, a shame most of them aren't out until Friday. Still, this is probably one of only three occasions when I've gone "wow" at the quality of a week's releases for the Vita.

Get ready to crowbar open your wallets for Dangaronpa Trigger Happy Havoc where murder is most definitely on the curriculum, Toukiden bringing modern monster slaying to the Vita and the LEGO movie game.

However, you may need to hire someone to pry the Vita from your sweaty hands as you're sucked into the finest of twitch shooters. Note, the soundtrack will soon be available if it gets your gaming juices pumping.

Also,  please don't forget the smart-looking Creatures and Castles VX on PlayStation Mobile.
