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.

Sword Art Online hits the EU PSN and retail

Lost Song is now singing out on the shelves, the latest in the Sword Art Online series. In the game, your heroes, face-off against a mysterious guild and explore the beautiful land of Svart ALfheim - a brand new area of ALfheim Online (as seen in the anime). It costs 29.99 on PSN and is PlayStation TV compatible.

Fly across the world and fight enemies in unique aerial combat, traverse from one floating island to the next, explore dungeons and complete dangerous quests. A revised fighting system also allows players to engage enemies in dynamic and thrilling combat.

We are investing in this brand by bringing more games to the online and physical shelves, by localizing them, by working hand in hand with the original author, by creating exclusive content and offers for our fans and above all: by listening to them.

That translates (to me) as "start buying these games, otherwise we won't be making any more".
