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.

New Ragnorok Rocking on to PSP

Ragnorok Princess of Light and Dark is a new strategy RPG heading to the PSP later this year (and one that will hopefully get a western release).

Still its another game to look forward to and with Apollosoft and Chime working on development duties, there is plenty of reason to expect a classy game in the end.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
