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. Allowing installation on the portable of physical games, and reducing the cost of the PS6 by making the Blu-ray an accessory (like the PS5 Slim).  I prefer the idea of a dedicated dock on the PS6 that connects the next Portable to your entire PSN library, and they'd better make it work as an extra controller, but I'm sure there are practical benefits to the extra drive.   That should also boost sales of PS4 and PS5 physical games, especially on the second-hand market, as folk...

Tumblestone takes a new shot at Match 3 games

Coming out on every format imaginable, including the Vita, Tumblestone adds a clever tweak to the usual match 3 gameplay, as you have to zap the blocks to create the lines of three. Due in 2016, it should help while away some dead time between major releases.

The press releases lists a bunch of features, hopefully all of which, expect 1080p should make it to the Vita. 
  • Addictive Gameplay: Playing "just a few more rounds" with friends could easily turn into a late-night Tumblestone marathon. 
  • Beautiful Visuals: 100% hand-drawn, 1080p artwork. 
  • The vibrant scenes and dynamic characters bring the game to life. 
  • Multiplayer: Challenge your friends and/or the AIs in local or online versus modes, or work together in the cooperative mode. 
  • Single-Player: Sharpen your skills with the Marathon, Heartbeat, and Puzzle game types. 
  • Variety: A dozen charming characters and backgrounds to unlock.
