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 .  April 2026 Update:  Compatibility with PS5 and PS4 games seems to be locked-in, as anything the PS6 full fat hardware the portable versions should be able to do as well, with near-invisible trade-offs at the silicon level.  Prices are firming up too with estimates around the PlayStation 6 handheld at between $500 to $700 and a PlayStation 6 at $700 to $1,000, depending on the deepening silicon crisis and Sony's budgeting wizards.  Only a few developers around the world could afford to take advantage of it for AAA+ budget games.

Borderlands patch 1.08 frees up more memory, improves playabililty

Kudos to Iron Galaxy who have another patch out for the Vita version of Borderlands 2, using the recent OS tweaks, to free up more memory - which they say improves playability. I'll give it a shot tomorrow and let you know if there's any obvious signs of improvement.

UPDATE: After some play over the weekend, it crashed just a few minutes in - possibly coincidence, but worrying. I think the particles or their volume could be new, but there's not much overall boost to performance or smoothness.

User comments suggest the menus are now a bit snappier, general smoothness in game, let us know what you think!

Patch 1.08 notes highlight:

* Fixed various bugs.
* Improved overall playability.
* Additional vehicle control option.
* Added sort by value option for inventory.
* Added user's support ID in ShiFT menu.
* Increased drop rate of legendary items across the game.
* Update PlayStation Vita SDK to 3.500.
* Enabled +77 MB expanded memory mode.
