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...

SteamWorld Quest brings piston-powered card battling to the Switch

Thunderful, formerly Image and Form, bring the first SteamWorld RPG to the Switch as the premier platform. SteamWorld Quest is billed as the role-playing card game you’ve been waiting for (apparently), and is based on fan requests for an RPG based in the robotic universe.

You get to lead a party of heroic steambots through a beautifully hand-drawn world and intense battles, using only your wits and a handful of cards. It looks like most other card battlers, and its hard to see where the unique steamy element comes in, but hopefully more will be revealed soon!

Take on whatever threat comes your way by crafting your own deck, choosing from over 100 unique punch cards! What awaits you is a luscious treasure chest filled with gold, dragons, vivid worlds, magic, knights in shining armor as well as XP, turn-based battles and all that good RPG stuff! The humorous mix of traditional fantasy and steampunk robots makes for an unforgettable experience with lots of laughs.
