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!).

A Challenge to Sony on Behalf of Games Devs

Right, come on then Sony, lets see if you're really into the mindset of the modern gamer! If you're listening to the social media and if you're really after new talent! I've been playing SplitMilkStudio's Hard Lines today. It's a natural gamer's game (combining classic game play with a modern sense of character and humour that belies the dinky pixels).



It has been picking up rave reviews and I tweeted the company to see if there was a Vita version in the works. The reply from SpiltMilk's twitter is pretty much a challenge to Sony when it comes to bringing new games and talent into the Vita world:

 oh man, if only! :D If you know anyone from who could set us up with a devkit, feel free to point them at us & 

So, come on Sony, I guess dev kits are pretty scarce right around now, but how about finding one spare somewhere and getting some new and funky games going for the Vita launch. Hard Lines would work perfectly with the rear touch panel, or even just a plain old stick.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
