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.

EGM 9/10
GamesRadar 8/10
PocketGamer Gold
NGN 9/10
EuroGamer 9/10
Girl Gamers 8/10
Edge 8/10


Also doing well is Steamworld Dig which picks up a raft of great scores too.

Punk and Lizard 8/10
PSU 8.5
Push Square 8
PlayStationGB 9.6/10

Will add more scores as they appear. Let me know if I'm missing one. What's all this Titanfall and Metal Gear nonsense someone keeps muttering about?
