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. Allowing installation on the portable of physical games, and reducing the cost of the PS6 by making the Blu-ray an accessory (like the PS5 Slim).  I prefer the idea of a dedicated dock on the PS6 that connects the next Portable to your entire PSN library, and they'd better make it work as an extra controller, but I'm sure there are practical benefits to the extra drive.   That should also boost sales of PS4 and PS5 physical games, especially on the second-hand market, as folk...

Vita's Silent Hill has Multiplayer Focus, what next? Silent Hill Karts

Silent Hill, a game where the general premise is that one man wanders around towns, shooting ghouls and investigating. So, how on Earth is Konami going to turn that idea into a multiplayer game, on a handheld? Sounds like a franchise creep to me, next it'll be Silent Hill Karts!



The concept doesn't sound any better since, according to an quotes from SH: Downpour developer Tom Hulett with Joystiq and Kotaku, the feature was planned for Silent Hill: Downpour and dumped. Only to be resurrected for Book of Memories. If it didn't work first time, generally cocking about with it usually doesn't make it better.

So, we could have a stroke of genius hiding in the shadows, some freaky co-op adventure (which will be fine as long as its not about always having to open doors or spring traps for each other), or Konami is losing the plot slightly. Either way, this is one game to watch with interest and also means Konami really should bring one of the classic Silent Hill titles across to Vita, just to keep the die-hards happy!
