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.

Minecraft for Vita bricking it on PSN soon

After weeks, if not months, of testing delays, Minecraft for the Vita has finally been cleared for release by Sony's Q&A department. The port of the Mojang game by 4J Studios follows hot on the heels of the PS4 and Xbox One versions, with just the Sega Megadrive version to come.

The game should hit the PSN next week, confirmed for Europe on the 15th, UPDATE: US is now confirmed as Tuesday 14th. The retail boxed version will be out for Europe on November 19/(21st for the UK) which pretty much screws up its chances of ranking in the all-formats chart and there's no sign of a Vita-saving bundle.

Given the volume of tweets asking about it every hour clogging up my Vita timeline, it will easily be the biggest selling Vita game of all time, not much of a challenge, I know. That just leaves Duke Nukem stuck in Q&A hell, from which it might never emerge!




If you own the PS3 version, it will be available for free, everyone else will have to cough up for the game that's sold hundreds of millions of copies, and is now owned by Microsoft! Enjoy it while you can. Just think, if you picked up an Xperia Play phone three years ago, you could have recreated the entire cosmos on it while waiting for the Vita version!
