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.

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed getting great reviews

Sega's racing love letter, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed is one Vita game that might be more Need for Speed than Call of Duty. The Vita version was developed by Sumo Digital who are doing the main console versions, and who did great service to the PSP OutRun.

The full console version is getting some great early reviews and there's every reason to hope the Vita version will match that level. It has scored:

IGN - 8.6/10
EuroGamer - 9/10
Official Xbox - 8/10
Official PlayStation 8/10

Given the game is only £24.99 on Amazon or £29.99 in GAME, it has to be worth a shout, out on 7th December. The Limited Edition (there is no regular one for the Vita) comes with an OutRun Bay track and other goodies.
