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.

Indie games shine of the Vita in BAFTA nominations

This year's gaming BAFTAs will be hosted by Rufus Hound, and I'd pay him a box of Lion Bars to go round the room, smacking the publishers around the head with a Vita, just for laughs! Among the games you can play on Vita that got nominated were Hohokum for Artistic Achievement and Walking Dead Season 2 in the Best Handheld game category.

CounterSpy and Shovel Knight (coming soon to Vita) get nominations for best début, while OlliOlli gets a mention in the best sports game category. Minecraft and LEGO: Movie get pats on the back in the best family game. Tearaway did pretty well for the Vita last year, and even though none of these are Vita exclusive, it'd be good to see their developers rewarded.
