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.

Mike Bithell's Subsurface Circular coming to Switch in March

Mike Bithell of Thomas Was Alone and Volume fame has dug out a great niche for himself as a stylish developer. His latest game stealth-released on PC last year to further critical success and is now heading to the Switch.

Subsurface Circular, a text-based adventure short-story about bots on a train, sees you having to solve the mystery of the droids that keep going missing through a series of interactions. The game has met with overwhelmingly positive reviews and has plenty of visual flair for a wordy game.
