 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.

Vita and God Eater set for a good week in Japan

Culture Convenience Club's Tsutaya game rankings for this week suggest the Vita will get another number one on Wednesday, as the remake of God Eater is ahead of its PS4 cousin. With Yomawari peering into the gloom at No. 4

01./00. [PSV] God Eater: Resurrection (Bandai)
02./00. [PS4] God Eater: Resurrection (Bandai)
03./01. [3DS] The Legend of Zelda: TriForce Heroes (Nintendo)
04./00. [PSV] Yomawari (NIS)
05./03. [3DS] 7th Dragon III Code: VFD (Sega)

 God Eater 2 on PSP/Vita sold over 630,000 for Namco in 2013. God Eater 2 Rage Burst sold 275,000 on launch across PS4 and Vita earlier this year and ended up at over 400K. I suspect this remake won't go that high, and probably won't do much for hardware sales, but any boost would be good. 

 Lots of players are putting up |YouTube videos of the game in action, here's just one example.
