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...

PS Vita will enjoy (or suffer) from social games too!

While everyone rates the iPhone for games, but for every Angry Birds, 99% of them are stupid dross, and it looks like the connected Vita won't escape either. I don't even know what these titles are called, if they come for free with the Vita or are just some of the fodder lined up by the mobile game devs.

One involves the touchscreens to punch people popping out of windows, whack-a-mole style and the other is an AR shooting game.



I suspect Dozens of these type of titles will emerge, but hope that most of them stay in Japan, and we only get the good, stuff. But I'm probably being a bit deluded on this point.

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
