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.

Bloodstained finally gets Vita stretch goal

It always seemed logical, given the money thrown at the project, but Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night finally has a Vita stretch goal.

Part of me is thinking, well, if you weren't going to support the Vita out of the starting gate, why tempt us now? But, frankly we need all the games we can get, so bring it on.

Koni Igarashi's Metroidvania title has 12 days to go, so reaching the stretch goal shouldn't pose a problem. Now if Yooka Lailee will get on board that should make quite a happy Vita line up for 2016. Plenty more Kickstarters to support here.
