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.

Japan gets ready for Monster Hunter Frontier G on Vita

The game features 10 New Monsters, along with 21 existing beasts, 3 new maps, 150 weapons (with 11 new moves) and armour pieces, more skills, elements and other extras.
