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...

Resistance Burning Skies will infect you with Near

Resistance may well be futile as Sony has a neat trick up its sleeve for players. Using that funny social/near map thingy, you can share your infection (from the Chimera) with others, so your friends can get the same bonuses, perks and so on that you do.



Does that sound like just a cheap way of doing some marketing, or will it really improve the game for people? It'd be cool if you got messages like "Spudgun is infected with quad damage. You've got it too, get online" but using Near is hardly a priority for most gamers, so I figure most of us will never see this happening.
