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...

Destiny of Spirits downloaded 500,000 time, big whoop!

With Angry Birds games hitting the 2 billion download mark, its a half-glass-full moment to see a Vita game, a free one at that, only managing 500,000 downloads around the world. So, almost a third of the world has played Angry Birds, while barely 1-in-8 Vita owners have tried something Sony is offering for free. Perhaps some marketing, you know?

I've dipped in and out of Destiny of Spirits since the beta, but its never really grabbed enough to keep me playing. Perhaps another playthrough is in order? Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps!


If you're in a similar frame of mind, or have missed out, why not give the game a go now? Sony is putting up a host of cheaper in-app-purchases and some extra content coming should you get hooked by it? There's nothing wrong with the elemental battle game per se, it just took ages to do anything. If Sony could speed the play up a bit I might enjoy it a bit more.
