July 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 .  July 2026 Update : Sony managed a cannon-fire sized self-inflicted injury by announcing the end of physical releases across the end of the PS5 era and the launch of the PS6.

Battle Rockets trailer has bullets and beats

Gumbo Machine's hybrid game Battle Rockets mixes shoot 'em up and fighting game in a quirky pixel style. One or two players can play on the same Vita and beat and shoot each other senseless across eight different game modes, including:
