July 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 .  July 2026 Update : Sony managed a cannon-fire sized self-inflicted injury by announcing the end of physical releases across the end of the PS5 era and the launch of the PS6. Due to lack of sales (only 7 titles have passed the 100,000 mark in the last year) and economics, it still doesn't matter to PlayStation owners, collectors are stores, who can now only sell digital codes in a box.  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.

Starlight Inception gets Remastered

And the outside view has far clearer text, while the fog effect on ground levels has been improved. 

It's a big fella at 2.2GB, and has tons of fixes and improvements, if you gave up on the game first time around, perhaps give it a second try. Definitely worth the title Remastered and hopefully will encourage the developers to keep the games coming. 

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
