Saros delivers Returnal 2 in all but name

Housemarque's Returnal remains one of the best PS5 games. Built to kill, raised to die, and fine-tuned to annoy the shit out me while dragging me back in for yet another go at  2AM.  Not-a-sequel Saros ropes in my one of my favourite actors Rahul Kohli into the mix with proper shields, greater weapons freedom, Indian-styled visuals, and borrowing  Xenon 2: Megablast's palette and violence.  Saros is set on Carcosa, a shape-shifting, hostile alien planet. It changes on every death, where a total eclipse changes everything (very Pitch Black!). The video shows the first biome, hopefully the others shift up the palette more than Returnal did.  Along his journey he finds Nitya Chandran (Shunori Ramanthan), adding some depth to the Returnal-mayhem.

Will PSP/PS3 Remasters be Followed by PSP/NGP Remasters?

It's not a massive leap of logic to conclude that what Sony is now doing with Monster Hunter Portable 3 Remaster for the PS3, and other games, it can also do for the NGP. Rather than just put the old PSP versions on the  NGP's PSN store, it can sell at a premium these upgraded versions and help publishers whose PSP games sold okay, but not stunningly drag some more life out of their titles.


Not only will this help fill out the release schedules and nudge gamers into upgrading, if you ignore the odious spectre of us paying for those games again, its an attractive proposition. While all the obvious candidates like Metal Gear, God of War and Final Fantasy will be at the top of most owner's lists, it would help bring back to NGP developers who had a shot at PSP and didn't get the greatest of rewards from it.

A final thought on this, could folk playing on a PSP play against those using the NGP version, allowing people to keep using their PSP's and keep their old games for friends and family to help enjoy some multiplayer fun and save the old console from the dust pile.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
