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...

Diablo II Resurrected could be a Switch best-seller

Diablo II, launched by Blizzard back in 2000, sold over 30 million copies on PC, and the remaster is likely to do big business. But I reckon the Resurrected remaster could do best on Switch as the more condensed nature of its missions, compared to modern dungeon-games, and the relatively compact nature of its graphics, even in the remaster, will make it perfect for portable play. 

The updated version arrives on September 23rd, and I'll be grabbing it on Switch over other platforms to enjoy the go-anywhere play compared to being glued to a big-screen. Some fresh info is up from a chat between PlayforAll and exec producer Rod Fergusson. 

I know there was plenty of big news from E3, but Diablo II is still my most-looked forward to game of the year. That's thanks to the many years of play I put into the original with office raids at work, many long nights at home online and the near-endless quest for those best sets of armour and other gear through the many updates.

Given the Diablo III Eternal Collection is £80 on Amazon, think this should also be more competitively priced, hopefully!
