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...

Dragon's Crown confirmed for Europe (several weeks after we'll have imported)

NIS America is proud to announce its partnership with ATLUS, a brand of Index Digital Media, Inc., to publish Dragon's Crown™ throughout Europe this fall for both the PlayStation®3 and PlayStation®Vita consoles. Developed by Vanillaware and directed by George Kamitani, Dragon's Crown is a multiplayer action beat 'em up from the developers of Princess Crown and Odin Sphere. Dragon's Crown features breathtaking visuals that bring the fantastic characters and monsters to life with fluid artistry. Players can engage in local or online co-op play for dozens of hours of intense, dragon-slaying action.
