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...

Sony Japan to unveil new PS VIta titles March 9, plus big news at GDC

UPDATE: As well as the news from Japan an overheard conversation in London suggests that Sony will be making some big news at Games Developers Conference next week.

Original story.
PS Vita sales getting you down, software developers (allegedly) fleeing the system? Why not hold a big fat webcast to show off a bunch of new games that will bring the punters running. That's what Sony Japan (news c/o Andriasang) is up to with a 9th March webcast called PS Vita Game Heaven (or paradise depending on the translation) in which viewers can not only win PS Vitas but also find out about the first big post-launch batch of titles, new services and more.



Will it be Monster Hunter? Probably not (Capcom will likely announce that at Captivate in early April). How about a Final Fantasy title? Maybe. Gran Turismo Portable 2? Don't get me started! Who knows? One good point is that the event is live on this site at 8PM Japan time which makes it a palatable 11AM in the UK.

What do you want to see from the event...
